That just looks like another thing you use a few times and then have
to look for a place to store until you can put it in a garage sale.

Yes, like my wife’s automatic rice steamer. And her bread makers. Kitchen klutter.
I have to admit we bought an air fryer, and have actually used it more than once. It's done a good job on everything we've tried so far. Not interested in a (not so) instant pot.
We're doing a complete kitchen remodel starting in a couple of weeks. Demo down to sheetrock and subfloors, all new custom cabinets, granite, appliances, new prep sink in island (where one has never existed), new hardwoods, etc. The kitchen will be down for at least 8 weeks.
The wife was nervous about about how to survive. We have a heated and cooled utility room with a mud room sink in it downstairs off the garage. Countertop and shelves beside the sink, and refrigerator w/ice maker and deep freeze also in the room. That's food storage and prep, pots/pans and utensil cleanup and storage.
Have a gas grill with side burner, pellet grill (smoker/wood fired convection oven), coleman 2 burner LP camp stove, evil Santa gift electric griddle still in the box, air fryer, toaster oven, and microwave.
It will be an adventure, but I think we'll make it. 
My daughter bought an air fryer. Did their Christmas turkey in it and said it was better than my
turkey (smoked or rotisseried). Maybe it'd be worthwhile, but I like mine pretty well.
Sounds like you're good to go with the remodel. Ours was down for quite a while with the water
damage repair. Basically did the same thing you're going to do.
Ah, sounds like your daughter has an oiless turkey fryer. I think they use infrared heat to "fry" a whole turkey.
The air fryer is a much smaller countertop thing that holds maybe 8-10 chicken wings, two servings of fries, broccoli, etc. Most anything you would roast or fry. Like this:

That's just the first one I saw. They range from about $50-300. A basket with fan-forced hot air.
Is that the one you bought? How many chicken wings will it hold?
No, we bought a Philips. I've had 5 wings (10 pieces) in ours. It would hold more, but you'd be taking the basket out and shaking it around a lot more to make sure they all got evenly cooked.
