[Electronics-Talk] multi-cookers/air fryers

[Sherry Gomes]

I do have the smart oven and like it a lot for baking and microwaving. But on the product page, amazon even says the air fryer does not work well, and the negative reviews are all about the fryer.

The Amazon smart Oven has a 1.5 CF capacity so it is larger than most.  They do say you may need to air fry longer but I suppose it's a personal preference.
 Some of the Technical details are;
Rated power

1,000W microwave, 1,400W convection cook, 1,300W warming element

Power levels

10 microwave power levels

Wi-Fi connectivity

2.4 GHz only, 802.11 b/g/n.
Alexa App–compatible with Fire OS, Android, and iOS devices.



The instant Pot is another amazing cooking appliance and there's several versions which work with the A. person.

I was given a small air fryer and being a household of one, a large appliance which needs cleaning after each use is more than I would prefer at this time.  If you have to prepare larger dishes or cook and freeze food, then it's all a matter of personal choice.

Just like microwaves, you want to consider the power output of the unit. I purchased a ProScenic T21 air fryer and I absolutely love it.
I believe it is 1700 Watts, has a nice square basket (many are oval
shaped) so it's easy to fit things in it. It has an Alexa skill called ProScenic Air Fryer and an iPhone app called ProScenic Home which are both accessible (and I am totally blind). I bought it on Amazon for
$129 I believe. I know that Amazon has a combo unit with a microwave and air fryer but it has a low power output so I have heard from friends that the air fryer on it is not so great.
