Thawed a salmon plank, cut in smaller pieces, foil to line the basket, lemon pepper and a spray of EVOO, again very good and quick.
I do not do fries so do not use it for that.
Check out Walmart to try one and see if you like it. Lots of recipes online.

I use 1/2 cup or so juice in a zip-bag to cover the chicken pieces, I flip it over a couple times.

We have the Power Air Fryer XL. well, my DH has it, LOL! He loves it. His favorite thing to fix is a whole chicken -- a smaller one, say 3.5 to 4.5 pounds. And I love eating what he makes!
A friend has one and she has perfected using it for fries -- both regular and sweet potato. She buys frozen fries and puts them directly into the fryer.

Thank you all for your replies!
You can get the pickling spice packets at Wal-Mart and Fry's grocery store. I never heard of soaking in pickle juice but I bet that is a unique flavor.
I've been investigating on line.......still undecided as of tonight. If I decide to get one I'll post my decision and the results.
Thanks again!!!

We have one, and, we just love it!
I bought it online from Amazon - during the cyber Monday sale (first Monday after Thanksgiving).
We ended up getting one made by Avalon Bay ... just went with the one that had the most, positive, 5 Star reviews (and, the least negative reviews).
Our absolute favorite recipe is thawed chicken breasts, brushed with mayo, then sprinkle/coat with ranch flavored bread crumbs. Turns out perfectly every time!!! YUM !!
Also, another family favorite is: frozen mozzarella cheese sticks brushed with egg white wash, then covered with ranch flavored bread crumbs. Just delicious!!
Good luck with your air-fryer shopping!!
