When I see these cooking gadgets on TV I always assumed they were a scam.
One day I was supervising someone at a pawn store. MrsMaw called and told me that our oven died. There was one of those little convection ovens (the fan that lies on top of a glass washbasin) sitting there on clearance like the ones that were in commercials at the time. I figured that even if it was junk I could probably get my $9.99 back out of it.
The American Harvest Convection Perfection that I purchased really was absolutely amazing. Everybody loved everything I put in to it. Since everyone was enjoying it we decided to take our time to find a replacement oven and wound up using it for weeks.
The new oven arrived. The family was enjoying convection cooking enough that we had spent a lot of money on a name brand oven that had a convection function. The family was quite excited to find out what this fancy new oven could do since that cheap little fan/tub thing made such incredible food.
Ya, you guessed it. It was crap. Nothing we made in it came close to what came out of the America Harvest.
We have long time ago junked that expensive convection oven and replaced it with another range but continue to often use that $9.99 special.
Sometimes these little gadgets really are the best.
In just a few minutes I am going to Best Buy to pick up the 4.2 qt Bella air fryer I ordered. That way I can fry about 9 wings at a time.
That’s it! Last year I was visiting my mom in Asheville. There is this place called amazing savings. They have food, fresh meat, dairy, & produce....all very inexpensive. They also have cool odds & ends. Found mine for $5.00. I love it.
I thought I posted you, but I posted to myself😳 post #83 is for you
Would you recommend this ( @ 4 qt) as a gift to someone who wants an air fryer?
BTW, there was a 4qt digital one at best Bet Buy but it’s sold out, even online. Most still have the 4 qt analog model.
Can’t stress enough about getting the correct size for an air fryer. My neighbor’s daughter bought one and loves it. Not sure of the size or brand. Only problem is with hers she can only effectively cook six chicken wings at a time. She now wishes she would have spent $20 more for the next larger fryer which could handle 14 wings.
Yes, I would recommend the 4 qt based on my 2 qt experience. However, later today I am going to use the 4 qt along with my 2 qt so I’ll know better then.
