For anyone looking to get into coffee roasting. I HIGHLY recommend this machine for value to performance. I also HIGHLY encourage you to pay the extra and get the extension tube for it for extra $60 (normally $79). Using the extension has halved my time to roast allowing me to roast about 2lbs per hour now. Previously, it was would take ~2 hours to roast the same 2lbs.
With the extension tube the machine can

roast 8oz of beans
movement of the beans are incredible
time to done is around 8-11 minutes depending on roast and preference.

Without the extension

4-4.5oz per batch
about 15 min per batch.
movement is average

Check out the extension tube in action:

You also get free shipping and free 3lbs of green beans.

There are lots of places to buy green coffee online. Sweet Maria's and Happy Mug are two popular ones. Roasting at home costs roughly half to one-third the price of buying equivalent roasted coffee, I'd say, and you can always be sure it's fresh. It can be a challenge to roast at professional quality on a home machine, though.

Having used both a hot air popper and an actual coffee roaster I wouldn't say that's entirely true. Having adjustable heat settings gives you WAY more control over the final product. Yes you can hack that into a hot air popper through various methods, but not everyone feels comfortable modifying electrical equipment that regularly pulls 1000+ watts. Plus if you roast often the chaff collector is an absolute must.
A popcorn popper is a great low-investment introduction to home coffee roasting but this is definitely a step up.

I use Happy Mug and pay about $5 a pound but Sweet Maria's is really popular also, both are websites. Besides dialing in exactly how I want them which is fun to do and learn, the flavor is just top notch and more comparable to what shops that roast around me are charging $16-20+ for 12 ounces.

No, I haven't. My assumption is that continual stirring is important for best results.

You can get certain air fryers with a rotisserie basket and motor...

Which, hmmmmm.

Not at the moment, but I know the Instant Pot Vortex Plus is one model that comes with a basket even (we had one before giving it away after we basically stopped using it when we got an Anova Precision Pro oven), and it looks like the Deco Chef 24 qt is another that's decent sized and not too expensive. Time to go do some research! :p
