You have to keep in mind that the combos don’t work as well as a traditional bucket airfryer. You are better off buying a small airfryer from kmart to try out. Alot of people recommend them.
I’ve gone to a friend’s place that used one of those kmart airfryers to cook some chips. I was thinking about this, and I’d rather trade a bit of functionality for a single device I don’t need to get out of storage and plug in every time I need to use it
I get it. Space in my small kitchen is at a premium. I have a microwave/ convection oven/ grill combo and it works well but it is not the same as a bucket airfryer and don’t believe people who say it is. The convection oven part is just a smaller oven. A bucket airfryer is like a Ferrari.
All airfryers are convection ovens. Not all convection ovens are airfryers even though they maybe marketed as that.
I’ve never tried one of those convection combos, but I do highly recommend an airfryer with 2 baskets. It does depend on what you’re cooking, but I’ve used air fryers with one big basket, and air fryers with 2 smaller ones, and I definitely prefer the smaller 2 basket ones
If you’re cooking bigger things frequently, then the large one might work out for the best, but the largest things I regularly cook are chicken schnitzels (my butcher does massive heart shaped ones), and chicken Kievs. I prefer to cook those either in the oven or fry them in oil anyway, so it doesn’t bother me
I usually use the air fryer for lunchy type things like chicken tenders, chips, or hash browns. Sometimes sausages. But I can fit about 4 large tenders or 6 sausages per basket, so it works out just fine for me
