I was so excited to get this! Mostly because I hated waiting an hour and a half for delicious, crispy french fries in the oven. So naturally, fries were the first thing I wanted to try. All of the pieces and instructions were overwhelming but I figured it out quickly while setting up. I got the fries loaded up and started the air fryer. I added 5 minutes to get the level of crispiness I wanted but it still only took 17 minutes! The next day we tried burgers and they were cooked well and super juicy which we loved! I cannot wait to try stews and chicken and rice and desserts! I love my new kitchen helper!
