Aldi’s famous air fryers have often sold out quicklyGetty
The air fryer is £110 cheaper than the Ninja one
And today its 5.5l XXL air fryer is back in stock online and will be in stores from May 7.
It costs just £59.99 and comes with a three-year warranty.
If you do decide to pre-order the fryer, bear in mind an extra charge for delivery.
It only came in stock on Aldi’s website this morning and shoppers have already been raving about it on social media.
Many customers took to social media to share the excitement, with lots tagging their friends on Facebook.
One person tagged her friend below a post advertising the air fryer.
Her friend replied: “Ooh! That’s a bargain.”
While another said: “Go, now!!!”
Do shop around for the best deal as you might be able to find something cheaper.
But Aldi’s air fryer is £110 cheaper than Ninja’s 5.2l air fryer which is going for £169.99
Meanwhile, Robert Dyas is selling a 5.2l Salter air fryer for £59.99, reduced from £70.
While this is the same price as Aldi’s it is slightly smaller.
But Asda is selling a 6.2l kitchen gadget for £59, making it bigger Aldi’s with the same price tag.
Remember, it’s only a steal if you were planning on buying the item in the first place.
Are air fryers really worth it?
Air fryers have surged in popularity since energy bills soared as they can be cheaper to use than a conventional oven.
That said, that’s not always the case, and it does depend on the model of air fryer.
In fact, money-saving expert Martin Lewis recently issued a warning that it’s not always cheaper to use the gadgets.
If you are weighing up whether to buy an air fryer, you can use a simple formula to figure out how much it costs.
Cost = power (in kWh) × time (in hours) × price of 1 kilowatt on your energy tariff.
So, if for example, you have an air fryer that consumes 2,000 watts, you are using it for one hour and the cost of electricity is priced at 34p per 1,000 watts, the formula would be:
2 x 1 x 34p = 68p
The 7.6 Tower Vortx dual basket model on sale at B&M has 2,400 watt power.
So the formula to work out how much that costs to use for an hour is:
2.4 x 1 x 34p = 81.6p
You can use the same formula with any appliance, so you can do this with your oven and work out the difference in price.
For example, a normal oven uses between 900 and 3,500 watts of power.
