pressure cooker or air fryer?

[Disney Nanny]

which would you choose and why?

It would only be used when family are up, joints of meat in winter and maybe some finger food in summer?
Including veg and anything else you dish up for a family day.

Thank you

I use my slow cooker more than my air fryer. I love doing gammon and beef . I brown my joints of meat especially beef and throw it in with a couple of stock cubes and it’s so tender .

I have a Ninja Foodi - I use it multiple times per week (I rarely use my oven now!)

It's actually a pressure cooker and air fryer (and slow cooker, dehydrator) so would do you for all eventualities?

If you're anything like me, you will end up using it for pretty much everything!

OMGosh off to look.
Didn't even know I could combine lol. Have a slow cooker, which I do use about 5 times a year, doesn't sound a lot, but suits me fine for me to keep.
Thank you

I love my slow cooker air fryer donated to Son and DIL just took up space for something I never used
I bought an instant pot and absolutely love it don’t often use the hob or oven now just a combination of slow cooker and instant pot

I have a Tower air fryer but wouldn’t have another one, I have to constantly open it to shake chips or turn them over with spatula, if I don’t then the top browns nicely but underneath it is a white soggy mess. I have gone back to cutting up chips and putting them on a tray, spray with fry light and putting them in the oven, much easier plus only one tray to wash up.

For chips / roasties etc I swear by my Acti Fry. I had one before I bought my Foodi and I was intending to get rid of it and just do chips in the Foodi, but they are not the same so I kept my Actifry. It stirs the chips so they all cook evenly It also means I can cook chips / roasties in the acti fry and the rest of the meal in the Ninja.

I have a Ninja foodie which cost a fortune, takes up lots of counter space and I never use except when I run out of room in the oven. I researched for ages before buying it, too but I just find other ways of cooking easier. My slow cooker I love and make lots of things in it.

We have both but have used a pressure cooker for years and have just had the air fryer for the last few months. Tonight for example the potatoes and veg were cooked in the pressure and the chicken breasts in the air-fryer. We use the pressure for soup and veg and the air fryer for whole chickens, chicken breasts and potato wedges mainly. Have never been impressed with the home made chips so still do oven chips on the rare occasion we have them.

DS goes off to university next month and has bought both to take with him
