LIDL is selling a Ninja air fryer dupe in its middle aisle that is a whopping £80 cheaper this summer.
Shoppers will be racing to the bargain supermarket for this kitchen essential as it hits the shelves next week.
The Silvercrest Kitchen Air Fryer which comes with a grill and smoker can be yours for just £99.99 from July 6.
That’s a whopping £80 cheaper than the Ninja version making it a bargain if you’re on the look out for an air fryer on a budget.
The Lidl version works as a normal air fryer with the lid closed and has a 3.8 litre capacity which can fit in 1kg of chips.
What’s better is that it can fry your chips without the use of any additional oil or fat.
You can activate the smoker separately when the lid is closed too but when opened you can operate the grill function.
And if that sounds complicated to navigate, the device comes with a touch-screen display for simple operation.
The air fryer comes with seven different programs for smoking, grilling, air-frying, roasting, baking, dehydrating and reheating.
It’s easy to clean up too as the grill plate, frying basket, plancha and drip tray are all suitable for the dishwasher.
With a high-quality non-stick coating, the fryer also is highly scratch proof and has excellent abrasion and stain resistance.
You can whack the temperature up to a blazing 240 degrees as well and it works from 40 degrees upwards.
And if you’re planning to cook something throughout the day, the timer can be set from one minute up to 12 hours.
The bargain buy comes with an instruction manual and 10 recipes included and has a three-year warranty.
While the Ninja Foodi Mini 6-in-1 Multi Cooker is £80 more, it only has six cooking settings and doesn’t include a smoker or a grill.
But the appliance does come with a bigger capacity of 4.7 litres and has seen good reviews online.
One customer gave the product a five-star rating and said: “Excellent multi cooker, easy to use, cooks great in all settings.
“Really pleased with it.”
But at £179.99 it may prove too much of an expense for some so the Lidl version provides a great alternative.
The bargain retailer are selling a range of other appliances in July too.
Available on the same day is the Grillmeister BBQ Pizza Oven for just £29.99.
It’s great for crispy pizzas or even fresh baguettes and could be the perfect addition for a garden bash this summer.
And if you want to go one step further, Lidl will be selling their Grillmeister 6 Burner Gas Barbecue for £129.
How to compare prices to get the best deal
JUST because something is on offer, or is part of a sale, it doesn't mean it's always a good deal.
There are plenty of comparison websites out there that’ll check prices for you – so don’t be left paying more than you have to.
Most of them work by comparing the prices across hundreds of retailers.
Here are some that we recommend:
- Google Shopping is a tool that lets users search for and compare prices for products across the web. Simply type in keywords, or a product number, to bring up search results.
- Price Spy logs the history of how much something costs from over 3,000 different retailers, including Argos, Amazon, eBay and the supermarkets. Once you select an individual product you can quickly compare which stores have the best price and which have it in stock.
- Idealo is another website that lets you compare prices between retailers. All shoppers need to do is search for the item they need and the website will rank them from the cheapest to the most expensive one.
- CamelCamelCamel only works on goods being sold on Amazon. To use it, type in the URL of the product you want to check the price of.
