>mommy mommy, my handsies are to weak to peel this potatorino!
soibot we need you

Those are kind of a meme tool, unless you actually need to spiral slice in bulk I guarantee you'll get tired of the novelty in a couple of weeks. I have one of those but I use them regularly for carving out grooves on potatoes and apples to stimulate my prostate when I'm cramming them up my ass.

Are air fryers worth it or just a meme? They're pretty cheap

If I have a toaster, microwave, and oven is there any point in getting a toaster oven?

*convection oven

>>16315692
I'd rather heat up a toaster oven than my actual oven

>>16315665
It takes you 10 seconds to peel a potato with a cheap crossbar peeler, that thing takes 30-45 seconds, doesn't even fully peel it and arguably wastes more potato.

Ass crammer, I love you.

Is your oven convection? If not it would be worth getting one of the ones labeled as a toaster oven and air fryer combo or convection toaster oven. It can do all your "air frying" as well as heat up much faster and use less juice than an entire oven. As someone who lives alone except for when the kids are over its but nothing but a benefit owning one for me. Got a nice one with French doors, small countertop footprint but can fit whole birds, roasts, 14 inch pizzas.

Doesn't posting stale copypasta get old? I mean, do you giggle yourself to tears every time you do it? It seems like such a waste. Why not do something original, or have you no personality of your own?

How the fuck do you peel a potato that fast? It usually takes me around a minute.

Fucking bought

i thought i was the only one

Learned from necessity when I had to peel 60 lbs of potatoes every other day I suppose. At that pace I would occasionally slice over a bit more than the skin but I'm certain I never wasted as much potato as that machine and if I slowed my self down there would be zero waste and I'd still be faster than the machine. I'm only fast with a crossbar style peeler though, I have no idea would use the other type when they are around the same price.

Capitalism was a mistake

>>16315777
That's.... not that bad of an idea. better than using a microwave if you're eating a lot of hotdogs.

>>16315665
get something actually useful and beneficial to your health, like a cold press juicer

This thing is great, lasted 5 years for me and I used it quite a bit, maybe once or twice a month.

Imagine thinking 90% of reviews aren't shills. Many sellers bribe for reviews and offer discounts and gift cards for favorable reviews as well.

>>16316403
I'm sure there's a good amount of that. Regardless of how these people obtained the hot dog toaster, the fact they have it in their homes at all is what I find hilarious

>>16316432
I have one of those. I like it. Fuck you.

Yeah but you don't have a home you have a shitty little place you rent and live alone at where you cook and eat 2 hotdogs at a time.

>>16315686
they only "fry" frozen foods like french fries or chicken nuggets that are already pre-fried. otherwise it's just a compact convection oven

>>16315665
I bought an air fryer. If you don't have one yet, today's deals are recommended.

If your current oven is shit (like mine is) and you don't own a microwave (like me) a mini convection oven that heats things up fast and efficiently in smaller sizes, is a great thing to have.

My pots can only do so much.

have you never bought from amazon? I've gotten multiple simple things (webcam, power cord, etc) that literally have a small card in their box detailing how you can email proof of your 5-star review on amazon to them and get a $10 gift card
