Isn't an air fryer just a heating element with a fan inside that just constantly circulates the air inside the chamber? Some ovens like electric ones do the same thing just on a larger scale, just heating elements and fans to recirculate air, unless you have a gas oven.

Oven is better for certain cases but air frier is so much more easier to use and takes less time,

You're talking about a convection oven.The basket type air fryers are a different beast. They're way better than a convection over. The fan runs way faster, they're small and heat up fast. Food crisps up almost as good as frying them, with way less oil and easy to clean up.

Yeah true, but you wouldn't use an air fryer to cook pizza for most applications an air fryer has higher convenience than an oven especially since you don't have to handle hot trays and such. I really wonder what caused their explosion in popularity.

An air fryer is a total game changer. Makes almost everything I throw at it taste good. I suggest for everyone here to get one.

Air fryer

Easier, less time consuming, and it doesn't leave your place as stinky (I hate the smell of food)

 

[Todd Thundercock]

They're the same thing.

My apartment gave me an oven so I don't need an air fryer.
