Searches for airfryer in Brazil reach their annual peak on Black Friday — a commercial date that, in 2024, occurs this Friday (29) —, according to a survey carried out by CNN on Google Trends. Check out five different types of these electric fryers and their respective prices below.
Despite being the biggest favorite in Brazilian homes for ten years, the oil-free fryer was invented in 1989 with its main function in mind: preparing foods that would be grilled or deep-fried in a healthier way, preserving their nutrients.
This result is obtained because the device commonly called an airfryer is, in fact, a type of more powerful convection oven that can reach points similar to those delivered by conventional frying.
Traditional airfryer
The traditional model meets the basic requirements of those looking for the product.
It has only two buttons that help the consumer to cook their food:
- the first is a thermostat, which indicates the temperature at which food is prepared;
- the second is a timer, which tells how long the items will be under the action of the fryer.
At the end of the stipulated time, the fryer turns off by itself.
Prices vary depending on the brand and capacity of the airfryer chosen. Three-liter models, for example, can be found from R$150.
Airfryer with digital panel
For those looking for more control over the temperature and preparation time, there are airfryer models with a digital panel.
Instead of a button with a scale of ten degrees Celsius, with this model it is possible to find a more detailed temperature scale.
Models of this type also usually feature a series of pre-programmed recipes, in which the user simply selects which one to prepare, and the airfryer starts operating at the pre-determined temperature and time.
As with traditional models, prices vary depending on the brand and capacity of the airfryer chosen. It is possible to buy an oil-free fryer with a 3.5-liter digital panel for R$195.
Smart Airfryer
Just like other household items, such as lamps, televisions and vacuum cleaners, electric fryers now also connect to Wi-Fi and can be equipped with digital assistants, such as Alexa or Google.
This facility can even be accompanied by a wider range of pre-configured recipes and offers voice control facilities and usage tips.
Models of this type can be found from R$450.
Airfryer with two drawers
People who want the option of preparing two different products at the same time, without the flavor of one interfering with the other, the best option is to buy an oil-free fryer with two drawers.
To ensure correct cooking on each side, it is possible to adjust the drawer temperatures individually.
A two-drawer airfryer can be purchased for R$465.
Electric oven with airfryer
Floating between the electric oven and the oil-free fryer, the airfryer oven is usually much more spacious, with capacities of up to 12 liters. It is also possible to place trays and cook more food with better quality, as the air will circulate better in two — or three, or four — different layers.
It is possible to buy an airfyer oven for R$375.
