Ninja Foodie, Tower Airfryer, or Halogen Oven???

My oven is on its last legs, the hob still works but the main fan oven is broken. The top oven/grill still works but takes much longer to cook things.

With the looming cost of energy bills I am looking at buying an appliance that will be multifunctional, cheap to run and that I can cook everything from ready meals, frozen chips, pizza, roast veg, roast chicken, and pork chops.

I have been looking online and I am very confused as to what is the best one to get! The Ninja’s look good but are very expensive. I’ve seen good reviews for the Tower Airfryer with rotisserie, but I’m a bit wary of making an expensive mistake. Halogen oven seem to be much cheaper but I’m concerned about the size.

Looking for recommendations and tips from anyone who has an Airfryer/halogen oven.

I've had a halogen oven, really good as a small oven. Nice to be able to see it as its cooking. I've got a Ninja 15in1, v expensive but good because it steams, bakes, pressure cooks too. I can prove and bake bread and pressure cook a soup afterwards. It's a hob and oven in one.

I’ve had a couple of halogen ovens , I use mine everyday and only turn the large oven on if I’m dong a lot of oven stuff together . I had a Ninja Foodie that was given to me as a gift - it wasn’t a large enough bowl to fit in an average sized pizza and it beeped very loudly when you turned it on and when it finished which upset my dog so I gave it away to my sister . I don’t miss it .

Had a tower air fryer it packed in after two months, the rubber feet on the grill plate fell off. Bought a ninja as replacement, a far superior machine n so quick, big saving on electric.

Ive got multiple Ninja products and have loved all of them. They have also lasted years

Thanks for the advice, I’ve bought a Ninja Foodie 9 in 1 in the Curry’s bank holiday sale. It is massive 😂 but I’m quite excited to try it out. It was £179 so a reasonable price, the price of the 15 in 1 was the same as a basic oven!
