No idea to be honest.

Gotta go and fry some air
That's their main purpose, isn't it

I like to microwave potatoes until just about done, skin on and whole. Then chunk and put them in the air fryer @ 370 for 13 minutes to brown and crisp them up.

Hot dogs are perfect @ 370 for 8 minutes...

Roasted bones for broth. 350 for 8 minutes out of the fridge then 390 for 6.

It has been used a couple of times but you all know what a hot buttered crumpet looks like so no pics. Today I bought a packet mix for bread so will give that a try maybe next weekend.

I never could get any kind of bread or biscuit to work in an AF. They ended up bulletproof on the outside...

It was a packet mix to try out. It worked and tasted good. Baked on 180 for 23 minutes.

I think an obvious question - which is better Air Frying or the good old fashioned Deep Frying. In other words, which method does the better and most useful.

My thoughts are the traditional deep fryer because I can't see how you could possible air fry banana fritters or anything with a batter?

Not a fair question. Both frying methods employ different heat transfer media which determines many elements of the item to be fried. Just because fry is a common element word to both techniques doesn't mean they're synonymous.

I think the problem is the word 'frying'! Air fryers don't fry the food at all. They bake it.

Air fryers don't fry. This is how they work
