Me when I see an air fryer for cheap 
Me when I realize at home it's so tiny I will basically need to fry everything one portion at a time 
Hopefully it'll still work out to be more energy efficient than the oven

you can air fry seasoned chickpeas for a nice snack. Asparagus in a little olive oil is bangin. It does great on anything breaded and frozen, and you can cook bacon and a frozen burger patty at the same time with no mess.
I run two air fryers with one kept to just vegetables. The 'just a little oven' crowd has zero experience or they would shut up, the air fryer gets to 400 in a couple minutes it's nothing like the effort of using the oven. Further, flipping items in the oven causes drastic heat loss and less end crunchiness than just quickly shaking the air fryer basket. Easier to use, clean, less energy wasted, it's a no brainer.
You can get silicone inserts super cheap from temu that make cleanup SUPER easy, too.
