With energy bills on the rise, many households are thinking about ways to keep costs down, whether that be investing in an electric blanket to avoid switching the heating on, or purchasing a smart metre to keep an eye on how much energy is being used.
One way in which you can shed hundreds off your energy bills is by investing in an air fryer which is said to save the average household around 50% of energy costs, compared to using a gas cooker or oven.
There’s one air fryer in particular which shoppers are saying is just as good, if not better than the pricier £229.99 Ninja Foodi MAX Dual Zone Air Fryer, and the good news is the Tower T17088 9L Dual Basket Vortx Air Fryer is over £100 cheaper.
Although it’s still quite expensive, costing £130, the Tower T17088 9L Dual Basket Vortx Air Fryer takes much less time to preheat, compared to the 15-20 minutes it takes on a standard oven, therefore saving you money and time in the long run.
On top of that, it boasts a huge nine-litre capacity and two separate cooking baskets to make different meals - great if you have a fussy eater on your hands.
The energy-efficient air fryer has amassed hundreds of five-star reviews on Argos alone with one customer even calling it a ‘game changer.’
One shopper said: “I bought this a month ago and it is the best purchase I ever made. It's easy, no mess and fast love love love.”
A second delighted customer wrote: “I've only had this air fryer for three weeks but it's totally changed how and what I cook. I love it. So simple to use and clean and way cheaper than the other brands. A cheap steak comes out perfectly cooked in 12 minutes and roast potatoes come out really crispy. Trust me if you can't cook, this can and it makes you look like a pro. It's fab."
While a third said: “This is amazing. I haven’t used my oven since I purchased this. It takes a while to get used to the functions but now it’s a breeze. Best purchase ever.”
The air fryer is also a great way to make healthier meals as it uses little to no oil when compared to deep frying, however according to reviewers you still get that delicious crispy texture and flavour.
There’s more too as the air fryer has 12 one-touch pre-sets with individual control over each compartment. It’s also got a re-heat function, cool zone, and digital timer so that everything is ready on time.
So, if you’re looking for a faster, more affordable way to cook, then we suggest jumping on the air fryer hype if you haven't already!
