    Thing is, that’s not even true. Glass convection oven is 60€. Air friers of somewhat similar size from brands like Philips or Tefal cost almost 400€. And are still actually smaller in usable space to make food. But thry look fancy and have a big color display and WiFi and whatnot. Convection oven just has temeprature and timer knobs and thats it.

      We’re clearly thinking of or seeing different products. The older glass convection ovens I used to see were in the $300-$400 ballpark in the US back in the 90s and early 2000s, where as typical air fryers here are all sub $100 unless you are getting a “fancy” model that includes some sort of “grilling” or rotisserie functionality. As you are referring to prices in euros, I can only assume that we had very different marketed products.

        Only air friers that cost under 100€ can fit 3 chicken nuggets and a sausage. And they are full.
