My air fryer has 9 features including a convection oven, toast, roast, dehydrate, bake, etc. I use it for baking small stuff like sweet potatoes. It's just inconvenient to turn on my large kitchen oven to do it. I like my air fryer particularly because it's really bothering me when I need to deep fry but the air fryer saves me time and effort (and oil) to deep fry foods.
