The emeril lagasse 360 French door is amazing. It does everything, even rotisserie!
I love my InstantPot Pro Crisp. It does all the things an InstaPot does and has an air fryer attachment. I needed a new toaster oven because mine just died, so I got an Emeril French Door 360, which also has air frying functionality. We'll see which one I end up using the most. I love the InstaPot, but I literally have to switch out the top as that's where the air fryer is vs. this new one, I'll just need to load the food in and tell it to air fry. I just got the toaster over replacement, so time will tell. I still have yet to wash all of the different trays that come with it to use it. But I'll test run it later today with Trader Joe's brand tater tots. I'm not sure why, but with that brand I found I have to adjust the temperature up and cook a little longer for them to crisp up. I'll see how this new air fryer handles it. And I realize I didn’t answer the why part of your question. The more expensive ones give you more versatility. Like I can use my InstaPot for stews and steaming. I’m using the Emeril right now for those tots I mentioned, and I’m pleasantly surprised that they’re browning up very nicely too. I might eventually try the rotisserie, but I’m more of a dark meat leg, thigh, and wings gal. I’ll probably still with the grill for that.
I bought the Emeril Lagasse 24 combo air fryer toaster oven combo with French doors and it's fabulous! I have baked pies in it and air fried food and baked pizza and you can even cook rotisserie chicken in it! It comes with the rotisserie pieces. It's amazing and I love it!
My Emerile 360 has no plastic. I love it. It even has a rotisserie.
The Emril Legasse French Door Air Fryer Toaster Oven is amazing! It comes with Teflon trays, but you can opt out of using them as there are non-Teflon trays as well.
I am currently running a Cosori with the pull out drawer, and the Emeril Lagasee French Door XL I like both of them. As a pure airfryer the Cosori is probably a bit better, but for an oven replacement that also can air fry I live the Emeril Lagasee. My guess is they will be on sale for Black Friday
I just recently purchased my first Air Fryer and absolutely love it! Wanted one with a window & interior light that could bake, roast, dehydrate etc. I chose an Emiril LaGassi XL French Door 26 Qt. If you’ve got the counter space, this is it. Normally $199, went on Prime Day sale for $150. Also there are a number of nearly identical knock offs that are less expensive. Big surprise: Husband loves it more than I do!
We purchased an Emeril Lagasse French door for ourselves and an additional one for our daughter and son in law. It’s a win win!
