We tried using an air fryer for a week to see if it can replace an oven

As the cost of living continues to soar, everyone is looking to save money on their energy bills. One popular method of doing so is to invest in an air fryer to keep costs down - but do they work?

One major supermarket, Iceland, has launched The Big Cooker Switch Off Challenge - and we decided to give it a go. So from the end of October our gas cooker - and hob - were off limits.

Instead we stuck to a 4L Tower air fryer, the same unit Iceland has been selling for £35. While avoiding anything gas-powered, we did also use the microwave, kettle, toaster and a Ninja Foodi to tackle anything we didn't think the Tower air fryer would handle, reports WalesOnline.
