Air fryers have skyrocketed in popularity in recent years, with many people praising them for how cheap and quickly they can cook food.
And because they also use little to no oil compared to other traditional cooking methods, they're also seen as a healthy alternative.
But now, shoppers have been ditching their air fryers in favour of a different gadget that's said to be even cheaper - and even healthier - when it comes to preparing meals.
They also tend to be more widely available than air fryers, as these are often snapped up very quickly whenever a sale is on.
The Irish Mirror reports that halogen ovens are said to be an "amazing" alternative to air fryers, and at a fraction of the price.

One reviewer said: "I’ve had this for just under a week and honestly don’t know how I got by without it. Heats faster and cooks more efficiently (and cheaply) than my oven, I’ve cooked several meals for a family of 3 including lasagnes, roast potatoes, chicken etc, everything has come out perfect except the pizza where the base was soft but I think a decent pizza tray will fix that. "
Another person explained: "There is nothing to dislike. Really easy to use. Quick, very cost effective. The glass bowl is easy to keep clean. Also makes great toast."
