Me, my Air Fryer and I… and You

Finally got on this air fryer band wagon. I bought this beast a few days ago. Love how fast it pre-heats compared to our oven.... which makes me think if the oven is possibly a little bit redundant now!
How much was that and where from?I can only find it on American sites but it seems to be sensibly priced.
Just wondering when we will see the next generation of air fryers. I.e. -
1. Combination of a Microwave and Air Fryer similar to the commercial offerings used in McDs, Subway, Costa etc.
2. Integration of an air fryer built into kitchen units and / or combined into a standard convection oven. Maybe a double unit where the top is an air fryer, and the bottom a standard convection oven?

I know that they come with fairly intensive maintenance programs (£££s), but would have thought Ninja can’t be far off with a ‘light’ version.

I could see a microwave air fryer combo being a good option. We have a combination microwave and the oven bit never gets used. All it needs is a powefull fan and it would be an air fryer.1. Combination of a Microwave and Air Fryer similar to the commercial offerings used in McDs, Subway, Costa etc.

Stuff like jacket spuds would be great, cook on microwave then crisp on air fryer mode.

My parents have a fancy Panasonic microwave/grill/conventional oven jobby. Allows you to microwave and oven at once, and doesn't seem to mind metal. Does great jacket spuds Stuff like jacket spuds would be great, cook on microwave then crisp on air fryer mode.
Some Cosoris are catching fire so check the part numbers:

Chicken mini fillets for the cats - from raw to cooked in 10 mins at 190 degrees on roast mode. In our normal oven that would be 20 mins plus 5 mins pre-heat
For the humans, in the other drawer, a small tesco finest ham hock pie and 2 x small jacket potatoes, 15 mins at 200, jackets were done in the microwave for 5 mins first. It took me longer to make the salad that it took to cook the hot things. (we were in a hurry last night)

Is that how air frying is supposed to work, or is it all b
ks?BTW it is sold as a comb I including air fryer, so I'm not trying something it doesn't claim to do

We have a kenwood combo microwave/grill/convection/air fryer but I can't make head nor tail of it. It appears if I want to air fry I can, according to the manual, only use presets where the grill is set to 60% and the convection part set to max temp of 240, and I can just decide time, or I can use combi preset of grill and convection with no Indication of power and temp and just set weight.

As far as I’m aware there isn’t a non-commercial air fryer / microwave combi, yet.
Air fryers have very high speed fans with small cooking compartments (like a microwave), hence why they would make ideal partners. It’s the high speed fan that accelerates the cooking time which you won’t have in your microwave.

Not convinced though

Usually with the must have new kitchen gadget that everyone is talking about you would see the celebrity chefs on Tv cooking with them like you do with the Big Green Egg or the Thermomix.
Yet these new air fryers don’t seem to have been adopted by the great culinary greats of our time.
Are they missing a trick or are these just landfill?
