Default Bacon & eggs-air fryer vs. micro

i have an air fryer-recent purchase. Am still trying to justify this purchase by watching/reading recipes...yesterday I watched a video of "Doug" doing bacon and eggs. Two slices of bacon -took over 5 minutes and looked greasy....scrambled eggs in some egg maker that took over 5 minutes. Well, I can do 2 slices of bacon in micro on drop an in less than two minutes and a scrambled egg in a ramekin in about 35 seconds...so that was not a winner. Then he did a beef/veg stir fry..using the a/f to first do the meat...long time, take out, clean container, then do frozen veggies, and then put sauce into a small dish and heat up in there....then out all into a Tupperware, cover, shake up and put in serving dish..sorry but this could have been done on stove in wok much faster, less mess! Did not convince me! So I'm still on the fence..I can see where it is good for some things, but some not so....jmho
