That's when we came across eBay Certified Refurbished air fryers, and we've been changed ever since.
In fact, some of the Ideal Home team even had the pleasure of being invited to the UK's first-ever air fryer restaurant earlier this year, where all the dishes were cooked using Certified Refurbished air fryers.

FAQs
What is the Refurbished on eBay programme?
'Refurbished on eBay allows buyers to shop with confidence on eBay with the knowledge that they can find fully functional refurbished products which have been inspected, cleaned and refurbished by either the manufacturer itself, or manufacturer-approved sellers,' explains Mark Monte-Colombo, head of refurbished technology at eBay UK.
'In an effort to provide both better value for shoppers and help the planet, eBay's Refurbished programme aims to demonstrate that shoppers can reduce the environmental impact of purchases whilst still getting great products for better value.'
Mark continues, 'Buying Refurbished allows shoppers to get up to 50% off the price of that same item, so it's a great way to help shoppers get more for their money, particularly amidst the rising cost of living.'
What are the different gradings of Refurbished?
There are four levels of grading for eBay Refurbished products, which are clearly marked in the listing title when browsing through eBay.
• Certified: pristine, like-new product that was refurbished by the manufacturer or manufacturer-approved vendor
• Excellent: none to minimal wear, refurbished by quality-vetted sellers
• Very Good: slight wear, refurbished by quality-vetted sellers
• Good: moderate wear, refurbished by quality-vetted sellers
Irrespective of which grade you opt for, you can rest assured that all products are 100% functional.
It is worth noting, however, that discounts and price cuts tend to be a lot more significant as you move into the 'Very Good' and 'Good' side of the scale.
What is eBay Certified Refurbished?
As aforementioned above, Certified Refurbished are items that have been refurbished by the manufacturer or manufacturer-approved vendor and is eBay's highest condition for grading.
