The air fryer by itself costs only £35, far cheaper than other air fryers which can cost up to £250.
A Gino kettle costs only £18, while a Gino toaster costs £34.
The products were posted to the Extreme Couponing and Bargains UK group by fan Matt Saville.
Matt said: “Jumped on the band waggon £78 in total (I paid more than that for my current 5L air fryer). Asda rooley lane Bradford, only saw one grey toaster left though.”
Matt bought the air fryer, toaster, and kettle in a carbon grey colour.
The Ninja air fryers cost above £200, with the Ninja Foodi Max Dual Zone costing £249.99.
Most air fryers cost between £100 and £150.
In a recent Asda sale, the ‘Gino D’Acampo Black 3L Manual Air Fryer‘ had its price slashed from £39 to just £19.
Gino D’Acampo is a celebrity chef who became famous after cooking on This Morning and then hanging out with Gordon Ramsey and Fred Sirieix.
One commenter on the Facebook post said she paid £19 for the air fryer while other commenters were interested in the kettle and toaster.
One fan of the air fryer said: “I have these in sage green. Match my kitchen so well!”
Another said: “I got the black even better with discount too . His stuff is cutie.”
A third said: “I’ve got the kettle, toaster, slow cooker, 2 x 5ltr air fryers and a 3 ltr one, my husband rolled his eyes when I came home with a oven tray, tongs and sauté pan yesterday. I love his range.”
Dupes are popular in Britain with people searching them out for a better deal on very similar products to the originals.
An interior design fan has given the scoop on her best dupe for a Crate & Barrel ottoman.
Irena (@thefurnitureplug) filmed herself revealing the dupe in a video on TikTok.
It was the Snoozer Cream Storage Ottoman, $399.00, from Crate & Barrel.
Meanwhile, one fan of the Stanley Quencher has found a dupe for £4.50.
It’s unclear exactly how much the B&M dupe holds, the size looks pretty close to the real deal.
And an Aldi dupe of a luxury Neom candle has sent shoppers across the UK into a tizzy, priced £40 cheaper than its posh equivalent.
The candle comes with a hidden bonus feature that its users can’t get enough of.
What is an air fryer?
“An air fryer is similar to a mini oven that can take on almost anything you’d put in a conventional oven or deep-fat fryer,” says Lara Brittain, kitchen and appliances expert at Currys.
They have a fan over a heating element that quickly circulates hot air around the cooking chamber.
Because it’s such a small space, it heats up quicker than a conventional oven and stays warmer for longer so you don’t use as much energy.
Lara explained: “Air fryers have come a long way over the years and they’re not just for chips: you can bake, roast and even dehydrate ingredients too, depending on the model.”
