I "thought" I sent a PM last night, but looking now on Messages, it didn't go and no sign of it now. Not sure what I did wrong, but there it is.
I did go to WalMart today and scoped out a bunch of them and I can say right now that the little basket types won't cut it for me.
The one I have now is wider with a removable/adjustable shelf...just doesn't get hot enuf and the fan is puny. That's the kind I want again, but with more snoose to really get things done.
I can get a half of a frozen pizza in this one at a time, so eat one half while the other is cooking. Chicken tenders and tater tots just don't get crispy at all. We gotta do better'n that.

Do you have garage sales in your town? Go around and check out a few. You might find a nice one cheap. I haven't found one yet, but I did pick up a treadmill for free for a friend who wanted one.

Yah, we have them, but I've never built any enthusiasm toward them. Mostly junk, tho' people do find good stuff sometimes. I miss the old swap meets.

I have a French door convect oven I use on the front porch the missus uses. She bakes in it so we don't really use the jenn aire oven in the house much.
I havent played with it other than it has bake, broil, convect bake and rotissire functions in it.
Wonder woman (amazon) said it will rotissere a 7 lb bird.
We use it for corn bread, muffins, casseroles, pizza, vegetables, haven't tried other stuff though.
Used it about 2 yrs now.

The concept is the same but the airfryer design is better that a convection oven for the specific task of doing small food lots...like pizza slices or tator tots or sammiches. We use it for reheating mostly when you dont want the microwave softness.

Our built-in oven in the kitchen has settings for baking or convection.

Our built-in oven in the kitchen has settings for baking or convection. most do nowadays but is it worth heating up a large oven to crisp up some leftovers? I thought you lefties were the environmentalists. If I only cooked for myself like Gittum does a counter top combo that air fried and toasts along with a decent bbq grill would be sufficient for me. Not everyone is in the same situation.

We have a countertop convection oven, but my frozen Paul Newman's frozen, thin-crust pizza won't fit into it.

Try cutting the pizza in half, then you can be eating the 1st half while the 2nd is cooking.
Last night, I did some chicken tenders and tater tots in my present toaster oven - 18 min on one side, then turn and 10 more minutes. Tater tots cool so fast it makes none, but the chicken was barely hot and very soft. Gotta do better.
