They're just tiny convection ovens with a gimmicky name.
- steve_adams_86 6y agoAre they though? I’ve had both. I really liked the convection oven a lot. It was glass, so I could see the food cooking. It didn’t get quite as crispy results, or cook as quickly as the air fryer. It also didn’t have the basket design which makes crisping certain foods very convenient. I agree that it’s a convection oven but I think there’s more to distinguish them. Maybe I’m wrong though. I haven’t seen new convection ovens for over a decade.
- poulsbohemian 6y agoMaybe this is true, but the one I got is a lid on top of my Instant Pot. At that point I have one device (read: fewer things to store) that can be everything from a slow cooker, pressure cooker and now dehydrator and fryer. It was a great addition to an already functional device.
