The primary time I baked Sweet Potatoes in the Air Fryer it was a game-changer for me.

This gives the right quantity of sunshine for that house. (Aspect word: whereas technically these lights are rechargeable, I don’t recall ever truly needing to recharge certainly one of them. We’ll see if this new one works in addition to the earlier ones.)
