Is an air fryer toaster oven worth paying more for?

Per the rtings.com technical review of the Breville and r/cookware long-term owner threads, a convection-oven-style air fryer trades some crisping intensity for dramatically more versatility — bake, toast, roast, dehydrate, slow cook. Reviewers who replaced a microwave or rarely-used toaster oven generally said it was worth it; those who only want fries and wings were told to stick with a basket model.
