My neighbor swears you should never preheat an air fryer, but the manual says you should

He said it's a waste of time and energy, but I've found my fries get crispier if I let it run for 3 minutes first. What's your take on the preheat debate?

Honestly this is just like people who skip preheating their oven. The manual exists for a reason, right? Your neighbor is probably the same guy who wings every recipe and wonders why stuff burns. That three minute wait makes a real difference for texture. It's a small step that gives you way more reliable results every single time. Following basic instructions shouldn't be this controversial.

It's the same with people who don't read the manual, like @quinn_mitchell9 said, and then get mad when things don't work right.
