Accy - for the air fryer, think about how you use it. For some people it's better to have 1 large drawer. For others they prefer 2 drawers (which are obviously smaller). We bought one with a large drawer because you can fit a pizza in it (the kids eat those a lot). But if you want to do different things, or would just use and clean one side mostly, then 2 drawers might be better

Im the only hot drink comsumer in the house. In the morning I boil the kettle, make my first coffee, and pour the remaining hot water into a Stanley flask. Thats gives me sufficient hot water for another coffee and a couple of cups of Earl Grey without having to consume more electrons.

I've got a vacuum flask type teapot. Make a pot and five hours later the tea is still drinkable. One of these -

Can you make in an air fryer:
Porridge?
Scrambled egg?
Defrost a Tupperware with frozen pasta sauce in it?
Warm up a cup of tea?
Warm up a cup of coffee?
Warm up milk?
Make custard?
Heat up a Christmas pudding in less than 3 hours?

Think I'd stay with a Microwave thank you.

On that, we have a contraption that produces one mug of boiling water at a time. Still have a kettle but that rarely gets used. Just pop in a teabag or some coffee, whatever is your preference, press a button and within 20-30 seconds have a mug of your favourite beverage!

So do I. It is called a mug. I empty it into the kettle and voila.
