That’s because it is basically a convection oven, it just has a basket and a few extra customizations. But, as the video notes, a convection toaster oven is not a suitable replacement for an air fryer in most cases.
My full size oven has a convection feature that does the same thing my airfryer does but at a much slower speed since it has to warm up for about 5 minutes first so yeah the airfryer works faster but has a smaller capacity than most toaster ovens as well as all full size ones
10 minutes to boil a cup of water? How is that considered good in any way?
it’s sarcasm.
Air fryers suck at boiling water. They’re basically anti-microwaves. Everything a microwave is good at, they suck at, and vice versa.
Air fryers are for putting a crust on things. Basicly a miniature convection oven

Technically it’s closer to an impingement oven than a convection oven. I’m surprised Alec didn’t mention impingement ovens at all in the video.

Air fryers are just Easy-Bake Ovens for adults.
My microwave is bad at walking a dog. Schould I buy an airfryer? Especially in winter, I would like a machine for that.
You’re attempting to automate pet ownership?
We’re kinda skipping the whole point, like people that grind in RuneScape?
Only in winter
Thats why I got a Convection Microwave. Best of both worlds!
I put microwavable things in my microwave halfway, then in my air fryer to finish.
Perfect for little pot pies. Gets the top crispy.
How do you close the door and start it if you only put the food in halfway?
Oh I don’t close the door, I just jam something in the little hole the door goes into and start it
No, no no. Lmao 🤣
Not halfway into the microwave, you silly.
Halfway into the air fryer.
Wait, you can fit your airfryer fully inside your microwave?
So they are dead silent then.
No they’re very differently loud. They’re mechanically loud while microwaves are electrically loud
