Air fryer liners

Apologies for the dull title - hope someone replies!!
We use the airfryer a lot and I'm looking for top tips of how to minimise having to clean it!
I line the base (under the basket) with foil but is there anything better?
I use paper basket liners which are ok but not perfect.
What do other people use, please?
(I realise two options are to embrace a dirty air fryer or simply stop being lazy and wash it each time but maybe there's another way...)

I just wash it each time, or cook items on foil, I turn the edges up to make a little tray.
I find the liners mean things don’t crisp as well.

Exactly this

To agree with the above but use paper liners as having a teenager he isn’t going to mess about so they work for us

Do you line the base with anything? Or just foil? I mean under the basket itself.

I use these but I do find them slightly annoying sometimes as the shelf inside the air fryer doesn't sit right with them. Do the job though

Although to be honest you can just stick the basket straight in the dishwasher so I do that most of the time

We use silicone baskets in ours so we can just take those out and wash them/put them in the dishwasher. Need to clean the actual air fryer basket occasionally but only if cooking food that can be a bit greasy like salmon.

Jamie Oliver cooks curry, rice and apple crumble directly in the drawer. I'm not sure who does the washing up in his house (he has come up with some good AF recipes though)!
We use paper liners but based on this thread I might buy some silicone ones.

I use the silicon liners from Amazon which fit my air fryer. Much easier to keep clean as I don't have a dishwasher.

Do you have a link, please?
