My mum used to be one of those people who does not like novelty kitchen appliances, like those machines that are used to make one item. She drilled it into us things like airfryers are a waste of space.
We now have a popcorn maker, after I burnt a saucepan. And today, a slushie maker. At least it also makes frappes and is good for Xmas entertaining.
We actually got rid of the toaster and got a convection oven instead. It’s handy for baking small things but takes around seven minutes to toast bread well. My dad will frequently just use the sandwich press if he wants multiple pieces of toast.
Yeah. my friends oven broke so she bought a fancy airfryer thing with all the options, it’ll do six pierces of toast but I can’t help but feel it’s a bit slow, it’s slower than my toaster oven.
yeah instapots I’ve read are a bit dodge But the foodi we got is a full bore system that actually did better than our old slow cooker. The only bugbear we had was having to relearn the cooking times as it’s a smidge off the air fryer performance of our Phillips. Not hugely, just enough to be annoying lol.
Does make it better at cupcakes though, I’ve found.

Air fryer, pressure cooker and slow cooker are used regularly at home.
Yes they take up some space, but worth the minor loss of bench space.
We got a ninja foodi combo unit that does all three of those. Freed up much space.
I kept the slow cooker only because the Instapot ‘slow cook’ function isn’t great and some recipes I make really need the slow cooker.
It stays out of sight and only comes out on special occasions :)
