Air fryers are a healthy option because there’s no need for oil in the cooking, but are they cheap to run? Do air fryers use a lot of electricity? Here I do the calculations and tabulate comparisons to help you easily make economical choices for your home kitchen.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n I covered how they are worth buying as air fryers use dry heat an<\/a>d so need no fat or oil to fry food and there’s also the easy cleaning options around air fryers<\/a>. The following is about whether air fryers are worth buying in regards to electricity consumption.<\/p>\n\n\n\n No, air fryers do not cost a lot to run when you compare an average 1500 watt air fryer uses around 0.75 kWh per 30 min daily operation compared to an estimated 1.5 kWh<\/strong> drawn by a 3000 watt electric oven<\/strong> use for the same time. They halve the cost for the same running time, but more importantly, air fryers cook food faster, which makes them cost effective.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n The following table lists air fryers I’ve previously mentions as quieter options in the range<\/a>. These have ceramic coated baskets <\/a>offering a Teflon-free alternative to nonstick and easy cleanup.
