I finally tried preheating my air fryer for 5 minutes like the manual says

My sister insisted I was ruining my chicken by not preheating, and after 3 batches of dry wings I caved, now they actually stay juicy, has anyone else fought the preheat battle?

The preheat battle is real and I lost it too for way too long. My first few batches of frozen fries came out like sad little sticks, then one day I actually read the manual and gave it the 5 minutes. Night and day difference, now everything gets that hot start and it actually cooks evenly. You were doing the right thing caving in, your sister saved your chicken.

@jordanm19's buddy is living proof some people need an ultimatum.

Honestly, my buddy refused to preheat his air fryer for months until his wife hid the manual.
