Air fryer moves way more air.

Oh and it imparts fantastic flavor to said nuggets. Just circulates the air so well that all the flavor molecules swirl around and stick to the food twice as heavily as an oven.

Pretty much this. Pulls some saturated fat out of fried foods - mostly for the kids. But you can eat French fries without thinking you’ll pop the big one before morning.
We haven’t tried a ton else in there like it says they’ll cook, but it does work good for chicken nuggets and whatnot.
