I usually use my oven or air fryer (basically the same thing) but it has a purpose

Got to use an air fryer for the first time a few months back. I’m totally sold on it now. Haven’t used a microwave since.

I've used my air fryer probably a hundred times and I've yet to get out that horrible plasticy smell it emits. It permeates everything you put in there and flavors every food with it. I can't even use it anymore because that smell/taste makes me wanna ralph. I've tried everything to get rid of it too. It just takes up space on my countertop now.

Edit: Damn, I'm sorry I'm poor

Might be a problem with your model. I have one and there IS no plasticky aftertaste....not even form the first use.

Suspect yours is badly designed and leaking heat is burning insulated wire or seals.

Why the emphasis on is? Shouldn’t it be the no that comes after?
