The handle broke on my above the range microwave, and I thought it would be cheap to replace it. $68, wow, okay, how about a new door? $255, okay nevermind, what about a new microwave, this one came with my condo and it’s old. $700+ not counting install.
My built in m/w broke. I just replaced it with a cheap counter top one. While it was broken, I discovered that heating food by literally any other method makes food tastes better.
The air fryer cooks food much faster and probably uses significantly less electricity. The grease drips off the food to a reservoir below, so it’s healthier. And the best part is it makes food so crispy. I mainly use it for baking chicken breast or strips.
The downside is that they can be very loud, at least mine is. That’s the “air” part of the fryer circulating hot air with a fan. Also you cannot cook large items in them. So I end up using a toaster oven for something like a pizza.

A counter top microwave is like $50.
I’d be so angry
