Martin Lewis warns cooks about using air fryers ahead of ovens in some circumstances
For many people the cost of living crisis has made them reassess what is the best way to go about doing normal things, like cooking your dinner in the most cost effective way. With power costing unprecedented amounts, many have bought items like air fryers on the basis that they are cheaper to run.
He said: “The problem with the equation for heating equipment is an oven is going to be about 2000W. A microwave I believe, from memory, a best guess explanation, a microwave gives you consistent heat whereas an oven is warming up to full temperature and then topping it up, so it isn’t running at full power the whole time.
Martin continued: “If you had a 1000W microwave and you put it on for 10 minutes, one KWH for a sixth of an hour, a sixth of 34p is about 6p, shall we say? So it’s 6p turning the microwave on for that amount of time. So yes it’s a very useful equation.” According to the research, an electric cooker costs 87p to run per day, while a microwave costs only 8p. This means that while an electric oven could cost you up to £316.54 to run per year, a microwave will only cost you £30.02 per year.
