A new study by Which? reveals that air fryer capacity advertised in litres can be misleading. The actual usable space for food is often between 60% and 80% of the stated capacity.

READ MORE:Air fryers are without a doubt the must-have kitchen gadget at the moment, with celebrities from Sir Mo Farah to Drew Barrymore confessing their love for them.

'Which?'s lab test measures the capacity of food in grams and has found that the true capacity is usually between 60% and 80% of what's claimed by brands.' However, this doesn't always match with how much food you can realistically fit inside an air fyer, as not all the internal space is usable.For reference, that's about two portions of chips and roughly equivalent to the amount of food you can fit on two baking trays in an oven.

'It is also possible for an air fryer with large external dimensions to have less space available inside for cooking than a smaller one.' Harry Rose, Editor of Which? magazine, said: 'Every year, Which?'s rigorous and independent tests uncover secrets and bust myths to help people make the right buying decision and get value for money.

Researchers from the University of Birmingham say that air fryers produce a tiny fraction of the indoor air pollution emitted by other cooking methods.
