Does Air Fryer consume a lot of electricity?
Chef's answer
Do air fryers use a lot of electricity? A key benefit of air fryers is that they don't use very much electricity. First of all, they don't draw a lot of wattage. And second, because they don't emit much heat, the energy they do use is efficiently focused on cooking, not heating the room.

Wouldn't recommend. In short: If you're buying an air fryer to replace your Fry Daddy, you're likely to use less oil overall, and still end up with results that taste good. If you're buying an air fryer to replace or supplement your oven, you won't see as much of a difference in the amount of oil you use.
