AIBU to think it’s fine to use an air fryer whilst it’s inside of a cupboard?

[HMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMn]

Currently having a new kitchen installed and have requested plug sockets inside of a tall larder/pantry unit. I told the fitter I planned on putting my air fryer inside of this unit so that it didn’t have to be on display.

He told me that this would make everything inside the unit greasy - can anyone who has this set up confirm? He said the grease that accumulates inside of an oven is what would accumulate on the inside of the cupboard if I used it in there.

I think it probably depends on what you cook in them, we use ours a lot for sausages so more likely to give out grease

Agree. It gives out a lot of heat and steam

Okay, that's not as mad as I thought. It's basically my kind of worktop that just had some doors that can close it off, which I assume you would keep open when cooking.

I think what's key is the material of the wall behind the air fryer. It would have to be very heat resistant and fire safe. Most of us will have tiling behind ours, I imagine.

You can buy built in ovens with an air Fryer neff do one

Check that you have a really good insurance policy because you're going to need it within weeks.

Cupboards aren't heat resistant, hot air belches out of air fryers during use.

You do realise that ovens go in kitchen units?

We have ours on the work top and it has left a yellowy stain on the tiles behind it.

Mine is fine. I pull it forward and have the doors open (same with the toaster and kettle) and I always unplug it entirely when not in use

Yea, he's right. Ours is on the side underneath a cupboard, and if we don't pull it out when we use it the bottom of the cupboard gets covered in grease.

There's a lot of hot air coming out of the back, it's not a microwave. It needs good air flow around it otherwise it becomes a fire hazard

Yeah, ......OVEN inside a cupboard....what could go wrong...???????,?????
Answers on a wooden coffin......

This makes kids play out of people who think AIRFRYERS are dangerous...persay......let me think : aaaaaahhhh I know, what about AIRFRYER inside a cardboard box...??????

are the Darwin awards still a thing?

What about people who think 'persay' is a word?

I had mine too close to the sockets behind it once, I was roasting a load of veg and the steam shorted the circuit, had to get an electrician out at 9pm on a Sunday, don’t recommend it!

Shouldn't it be Per Se?

Per se and not necessarily correct in this context. I don't actually agree with the spelling and grammar pile ons you tend to see here, but when the point of the post is to denigrate other people's intelligence or perceived lack thereof it seemed unavoidable.

My oven is inside of a cupboard!!!!
