IT'S no surprise that air fryers remain all the rage as they can be a cost-effective and healthy way of cooking your meals.
If you're wanting to join the hordes of air fryer enthusiasts, you don't need to spend a crazy amount.

You can get these gadgets at all sorts of prices to suit your budget, but of course it's likely you also want one that is good quality and has earned top reviews from other customers.
You'll also want to consider the type of air fryer that would suit your needs - for example, whether you need it to fit into a small kitchen, or if you want something that can feed a large number of people, or if you want it to double up as an oven.
That's why The Sun has put together a guide to the cheapest places you can buy some of the best-loved air fryers depending on what you're looking for.
We used Google Shopping to compare prices and also considered any extra discounts you can get.
Compact air fryer: Ninja Double Stack XL SL400UK
Cheapest place to buy: Ninja's official store on eBay
If we're talking about the top-rated air fryers, it would be impossible not to mention Ninja.
Cooks looking for something that won't take up too much space in their kitchen should consider the Ninja Double Stack XL SL400UK, as it's slimmer than most air fryers.
It does come with a hefty price tag, selling for £229.99 on the Ninja website.
However you can get it for a cool £50.99 off if you buy a refurbished version on eBay at £179.
Shoppers race to Lidl for 'absolute steal' dupe of Ninja DOUBLE air fryer
Ninja has its own eBay store where it often sells refurbished air fryers for a discounted price.
There are still plenty available and they're described as 'good condition' and 'fully working' but with 'some cosmetic imperfections'.
You will still have a one-year warranty on the air fryer, which is standard with Ninja products.
The double-stacked air fryer can cook four foods at the same time, but it's 30% slimmer than other Ninja gadgets.
It can cook enough food to feed up to eight people.
Customers on the Ninja website have given it a decent 4.3 out of five stars, and they say it 'definitely hasn't disappointed'.
One reviewer wrote: 'It's so easy to use, I do like the drawers one on top of the other, feels solid, easy to clean.'
Another said: 'The bonus of dual stack and dual layer is being able to cook more than one meal at a time and sync the cooking time to take care of everything… Love it!'
Big air fryer: Tefal XXL Dual Easy Fry 11L
If you're looking for something that can feed a large amount of people, you'll want to consider something like this 11L air fryer.
The gadget's large capacity means it's ideal for eight to 10 people, or for batch cooking.
Tefal XXL Dual Easy Fry 11L usually sells for £199.99, but it's currently on sale on the Tefal website for £139.99.
If you haven't already signed up for email updates from Tefal, you can also get an extra 15% off - taking the total down to £118.99, and it also comes with free delivery.
The device is also selling on Amazon for £139.99 with free delivery, but you wouldn't be able to get the further 15% discount.
It's the largest dual air fryer that Tefal sells and can cook two different foods at once.
It has seven pre-set programs, including Fries, Chicken, Vegetables, Fish, Dessert, Dehydration, and manual temperature control.
Reviewers have raved about it, saying it's an 'outstanding piece of kit'.
One person said: "Absolutely love this new addition to our kitchen. We've had it for almost two weeks and our oven has only been on twice."
Another said the air fryer had made 'the best roasties ever' and added: 'OMG they were the crispiest and fluffiest potatoes I'd ever eaten.'
Rise of the air fryer
Air fryers have maintained their spot as the most popular kitchen gadget in the UK last year.
Annual sales figures from Lakeland show sales of air fryers were up 1,175% on last year – when they were already soaring in popularity – as households continue their efforts to save energy on standard ovens.
The retailer said: 'In previous years, their popularity could be attributed to consumers seeking healthier cooking options and fast cooking times.
'However, with the cost-of-living crisis continuing, air fryers have a renewed appeal as an efficient alternative to oven cooking.'
The only other products that 'shaped the year' were heated airers – with sales up 51% – and heated textiles, such as heated throws and ponchos, Lakeland said, as households bought gadgets as an alternative to expensive dryers and central and electric heaters.
Single-drawer: Cosori TurboBlaze
Cheapest place to buy: Amazon (Prime customers)

Another air fryer that's earned rave reviews is the Cosori TurboBlaze, which is best for those just wanting to cook for a small number of people.
The 6L air fryer usually sells for £159.99, but Amazon Prime customers can currently get it for £99.99.
If you don't have Prime, it's still on offer but for £119.60.
Alternatively, you can get a used version for £92.98 through Amazon Resale, which sells on returned products.
The air fryer is described as in a 'like new' condition and Amazon Resale says it thoroughly checks the quality of each item before it's resold.
Reviewers say the Cosori Turboblaze 'cooks to perfection and is very quick doing it'.
One person on the Amazon website called it 'brilliant' and said it was 'surprisingly quiet and so easy to use and clean'.
Dual drawer: Ninja Foodi Dual Zone Digital Air Fryer 7.6L
Cheapest place to buy: Amazon or Ninja (with email sign-up)
6
Of course, another Ninja air fryer has made the list.
This is one of the top-rated dual-drawer air fryers and reviewers say it's 'absolutely fantastic'.
Once again Amazon is the cheapest place to buy as it's currently on offer for £145.
However, if you're willing to sign up for Ninja's email newsletter then you can get it even cheaper on the Ninja website.
The gadget is selling for £149 on there but you get 10% off if you sign up to the newsletter, taking the cost down to £134.10.
The air fryer can cook two foods at once with six cooking functions: Air Fry, Max Crisp, Roast, Bake, Dehydrate and Reheat.
Reviews say it's a 'brilliant device' and 'well worth it' despite the high price.
One reviewer wrote: 'This air fryer is absolutely fantastic! It has so many amazing features that make cooking so much easier.
'You can air fry, roast, bake, and reheat—it's like having several appliances in one! The crispy results are perfect every time, and it's great for making healthier meals without sacrificing taste.'
Air fryer oven: Breville VDF130 Halo Flexi 11L Dual Oven Air Fryer
Cheapest place to buy: John Lewis or Amazon
Shoppers wanting an air fryer that also doubles as an oven should look no further than this Breville version.
The extra-large 11L gadget has 12 ways to cook your food, including baking and grilling.
You can also sync the different compartments so that each food you're cooking will finish at the same time.
Both John Lewis and Amazon are offering it for £149.99.
However if you're happy to get it through Amazon Resale, you can get one in 'like new' condition for £104.19.
One reviewer on the Amazon website said they have found the product 'very practical for a family of four' as they can cook different meals at the same time.
"Dinner is now made quickly and efficiently. Which means more time to spend with the family!!!!" they said.
Another wrote: 'I bought this to replace my old airfryer . It is absolutely fantastic. So many different uses . Easy to clean. Very easy to use. I love it .'

Parking changes in Ilkley could 'kill businesses'
Shoppers and business owners in Ilkley are urging officials to rethink plans to scrap a permitted hour of free parking in the town due to fears its removal will drive visitors away. Bradford Council has proposed introducing a simplified "two-tier" system of parking charges at car parks it runs across the district, with either short- or long-stay fees in effect around the the spa town of Ilkley, a one-hour "grace period" of free parking allowed before charges kick in would end. There would also be a removal of rebates for evening and bank holiday usage. Mother Louise Nicholls, who is expecting her second child, said cheap parking close to amenities was a bonus for parents whose children are too young to walk added that parking costs already added pressure to tight family budgets."Obviously, you don't want to be walking too far when you've got two little ones in tow. So having somewhere in the centre that's not too expensive is really useful."If me and my husband are coming in in the evening especially, that's quite nice. It means we can park up for free and not have to worry. It'll be a real shame if that's gone."Over at the Jefferson Buckley hair salon, every chair was full as ladies had their hair done and chatted away."The general feeling is it's just ridiculous," said one stylist, who asked not to be named. "And it's just so complicated."Reminded that the council says it's trying to simplify the system, she said: "It's not good enough. It's already hard enough from this economic crisis we're in. It's just making everything harder. " Willow Thomas, another stylist, also thought the current system was "confusing" as there were "so many different meters to pay at and older people especially get confused".Of scrapping the grace periods, she added: "I just think it's expensive for people that are coming and spending money in local shops."Customer Amy Jauregui, who was having her hair done by Willow, said "five or 10 minutes' grace" should be standard, but she also felt areas like Ilkley were treated as "a bit of a cash cow". Tourists John and Alison Marriott were visiting Ilkley from Manchester, a trip they make several times a year - but which they could now reconsider the frequency of."They're going to lose business. I've seen it happen in other cities," suggested John."People go elsewhere to the big shopping centres which have free parking all day, and local businesses will take a hit."Alison added that removing any small grace periods was "very disappointing" and urged Bradford Council to "reconsider".Meanwhile shop worker Salman Khaliq, who works at Ilkley Mobiles, said the free hour enabled customers to "pop in" rather than pay for a longer stay."Sometimes customers only have to come into a shop for five minutes and they have to pay for an hour ticket," he said."If there is free parking, definitely I will have good business. There's going to be no free parking at all anywhere now."Bradford Council's public consultation on the issue remains open until 2 July .

The chairman of the committee, Rob Callister, said the area was "desperately in need" of the committee were told the application had been timed for the developers to meet the deadline to apply for the Department for Enterprise's Infrastructure Scheme, which aims to encourage private investors to redevelop brownfield requirement for affordable housing would be paid through commuted Kelly, owner of Kelproperties, which owns the site, said the organisation was "grateful to the planning committee for their approval". However, the team was "highly critical" of the planners who put a listing on the building in the first place, "which was after our contracted agreement to buy the site over seven years ago"."We feel that the subject of heritage listings needs a deep review to prevent this sort of thing happening once more," he added.
