I bought cast iron pan which I think is the best ever purchase I made.

Our air fryer. I thought it was all hype. I just didn't know. It's so convenient for so many things.

Along similar lines, our Instant Pot. So covenient for so many things. We cook rice in it, chili, stews, my dog's food, stock, etc.

Our bidet. I cringe at how dirty my asshole used to be. It's amazing.

Hell yeah. We got a 'Ninja' that is an air fryer and pressure cooker. We use it so much. We are also on team bidet. The worst thing about having a bidet is the feeling of disappointment you get whenever you take a shit somewhere else.

We've got a Ninja also. They're great! I roast veggies in it, prep my meals for the week, all kinds of stuff.

We were on vacation for a week and very much missing our bidet.

Question. We were gifted a Ninja air fryer ages ago and never use it because it's giant and we live in a tiny apartment. The basket barely fits in the sink, the whole unit is like 3x the size of the basket, and having to shake it every few seconds so stuff doesn't burn is a pain in the butt.

I think we've used it like twice in three years. What exactly am I missing here? Did they fix these issues in newer models?

[โ€“] TheGiantKorean@lemmy.world 1 points 11 months ago

Wow that sounds gigantic. It must be a different model than ours. I do shake it for fries or veggies occasionally but that's maybe twice during the cooking time. Anything else I can just let cook or flip once.

My wife and I have a big, fancy bidet. We love it, of course. We've been remodeling our house and living in air B&Bs over the last five weeks. Ugh. Missing our bidet so much!

I am the same with the bidet. Without water (or something wet) touching my chocolate starfish i feel kinda dirty as well. Crazy.
