Compact IKEA 3-in-1 GÅTEBO microwave merges microwave, grill, and air fry — first hands-on test

Tom's Guide tests IKEA's GÅTEBO 3-in-1 microwave (priced at $199) and finds it surprisingly capable as a microwave, grill, and air fryer. It’s solidly built with a clear manual, handles reheating well (pasta and soup), and can grill sandwiches, but air frying is slower than dedicated models and may not fully replace a separate fryer. Overall, a strong space-saver for small kitchens, though not a complete substitute for multiple appliances; full hands-on results forthcoming.

Perfectly Cooked Air Fryer Chicken Thighs in Minutes

Cooking bone-in, skin-on chicken thighs in an air fryer typically takes between 20 to 25 minutes at 400 degrees Fahrenheit, while boneless chicken thighs may take closer to 20 minutes. The cooking time may vary based on factors such as the number of thighs and whether they are at room temperature or straight from the fridge. Flipping the chicken halfway through cooking ensures even browning and cooking, especially for skin-on thighs. The result is a combination of crispy skin and juicy meat, making air fryer cooking a quick and efficient method for delicious chicken thighs.
