They are not the same product, their working principles are different, so their performances are also different. First of all, we must understand their heating principles in order to better distinguish their advantages and disadvantages.
1. Air fryers are heated by a high-speed air circulation system, while microwave ovens are heated by magnetrons.
2. The taste of the food cooked in the air fryer is more similar to "frying", that is, the process of frying can be simulated without oil or less oil, making the food more crispy. This is something that microwave ovens cannot compare to.
3. Both air fryers and microwave ovens have the thawing function, but due to different heating principles, the thawing of the air fryer will be more uniform.
4. The air fryer is not recommended to be operated with a porcelain bowl, but the microwave oven can be placed in a special bowl for heating and other operations.
5. For sweet potatoes, peanuts, corn, potatoes and other foods with low water content, the air fryer can retain the moisture of the food to a greater extent, while the microwave oven will be slightly dry.
6. The price of air fryer and microwave oven is less than 500 yuan, but the air fryer occupies a small area, which is more convenient for moving and carrying.
7. The frequency of household microwave ovens is 2450 MHz. This kind of microwave cannot penetrate into the human body and damage internal organs and tissues. It can only heat the skin and surface tissues. As long as it is not radiated for a long time, it generally does not pose a health hazard. . Air fryers use high-speed air circulation
The system or hot air heating, which is different from the microwave oven, the biggest advantage of the air fryer is that it can create a healthy diet. Waste oil can be carcinogenic and can also lead to obesity. Air fryers can use no oil or less oil, which is the biggest advantage of air fryers.
8. No product can be guaranteed to be harmless to the human body, but as long as it is used correctly, it will not cause harm to the human body.
Summary: If you consider health, energy saving, and environmental protection, it is recommended to use an air fryer. Of course, you need to consider the purchase from your own needs and economic ability. The above is about the difference between an air fryer and a microwave oven, I hope it can help you.
