For me the desire to put up with the effort to cook something came, when I bought a Ninja Speedi... because the time reduces to pretty much throwing the ingredients together. Pick something to cook (potatoes, vegetables, pasta, rice,...) and throw it in the bottom. Put the divider in and put the thing to fry at the top (meat, fries, veggy pattie, whatever). A bit of water in the bottom, timer to 12 mins, temp to 180°C and hit start. 16 or so minutes later you have your meal. It starts to heat the water to produce steam and then turns on the recirculating heat for the configured time, so your food gets steamed and fried at the same time. Not having to juggle different pots and pans at the same time made cooking much more pleasant.
