I keep it right next my instant pot, Ronco rotisserie, fry daddy, panini maker, waffle iron, juicer. Smoothie maker, bread maker, ice cream maker , crock pot and rice maker, but I use it more than my bamboo steamer

But where do you keep your George Foreman Grill?

For those asking about convection ovens, I’ve never had a “toaster” and always had a convection oven. They are extremely useful. Currently have a smaller Breville. Got the large one off our registry a couple years ago, but it took up more counter space than necessary so we swapped it for the small one.

It is has texture and you don’t need a vat of fricking grease to use it.

Unless you’re eating fried food as a steady part of your diet,I don’t see the point. Real fried stuff once a while won’t kill you.

I’m clueless when it comes to air fryers and the smart oven air by Breville. Someone mentioned adding oil (a drop) to air fryer for crispy thighs. How does one accomplish this with the Breville?

Appreciate it.

We may be owning one soon. We make toast most mornings and make beef jerky on the regular. Can we scrap those 2 machines?

Is it a pain in the arse to clean?

FWIW - we still have a SlapChop and it works like a boss.

I find instant pots aren't fad gadgets, they're pretty useful, imo.

But you really need a pasta maker, meat grinder, popcorn maker, food dehydrator, vegetable spiralizer
