I am still learning the best way to cook with my new Breville, but thus far I am enjoying the improved taste of my vegetables and tofu cooked this way as opposed to microwaving, oven roasting and pan frying. I did not give it 5 stars simply because it is harder to keep clean, due to spatters, but I keep experimenting. I am trying different cooking utensils and parchment paper. The web is full of sources and ideas and That has been helpful. If you are looking for simply the air fryer function, this may not be for you.
