my wife has been interested on one lately and don't mind getting for wings

Yes you can
Totally forgot we got one of these recently

I've only used the AF twice and I prefer it from the other AF's I have... Guess my optimism to consolidate for counter space didn't work out

Actifry chicken wings and cubed potatoes will change your life.
When the kids want "those square potatoes" instead of pizza you're doing something right.
We got the AF attachment for our instant pot and wife uses it a lot. The biggest downside IMO is how small these things are. Can easily do a batch of fries for 3 people, but something like wings is better off in a convection oven if you want to make more than like 15. Chicken strips, wontons also work really well in the AF. Costco has these kalettes things that are essentially litre Brussels sprouts and those also work really nicely in the AF.
It makes a lot of sense to me that instantpots keep coming up when talking about air fryers

^DING!!!!
Gets it.
Instant pot makes an air fryer lid to use on your existing device like this:This quote is hidden because you are ignoring this member. Show Quote
and they also make their own standalone air fryer, the instant pot Vortex

Got mind two weeks ago and love it. Pork belly crackling is so easy now. Homemade fries is good. Chips still needs some practice. No problem with whole chicken. Char siu is also good and easy. I'm gonna try fried tofu this weekend. I'm glad that I didn't buy the combo convection oven/air fryer type. They are probably ok and sort of work, like swiss army knife in a pinch but not as a weapon of choice.
Who's doing fish and chips, and which one? I thought an air fryer WAS a convection oven. I'm becoming re-baffled.

Is this a good time for me to repeat how stupid it is that these devices are called "fryers"? And that the term "air fryer" is an oxymoron? And that it bothers me an unreasonable amount?
I agree with 2, in their ability to destroy my faith in humanity

It's 2021. Girls can pee standing. Air can fry.
I was like others and didn't want something else to store, but I'm enjoying it now. Thawed chicken breasts in 25 minutes is a win for me, and way better then in the regular oven. But yes it's pretty much a convection oven.
Cooking breakfast today and used the air fryer instead of oven for hash brown sticks (these are amazing btw)
Normally 10 min preheat + 18min cook time with convection oven at 425. With the AF it’s 3 min preheat + 10 min cook at 400. Helpful when you have hungry kids waiting to eat.
It seems everything Cavendish makes is so good.
Apparently owned by the Irving family. (Irving Oil and virtually everything else East Coast).
Yeah their onion rings are amazing, we cook some whenever we have the deep fryer going. Like the thing filled with hot oil that actually fries things.This quote is hidden because you are ignoring this member. Show Quote
So with your air fryer, does the stuff have to be a single layer? Seems so small. Or can you pile it up to full depth?This quote is hidden because you are ignoring this member. Show Quote

Single layer works faster, but you can stack things in the basket about 3/4 the way as long as you toss / turn the items once or twice during cooking. This is how I do a decent sized basket of fries enough for 3-4 people (not sure if other air fryer models require the same technique):
