1. Test items

Temperature accuracy: This is one of the core test points. The air fryer relies on precise temperature control to achieve excellent cooking results. It is necessary to use a professional thermometer to measure the actual temperature in the pot at different preset temperatures to check the deviation from the set temperature. The smaller the deviation, the more it can ensure that the ingredients are heated evenly, the cooking effect is stable, and the food is prevented from being partially burnt or undercooked.

Hot air circulation efficiency: By placing multiple temperature sensors at different positions in the pot, after turning on the air fryer, observe the temperature rise speed and uniformity at each position to evaluate the efficiency of the hot air circulation system. Efficient hot air circulation ensures that the food is wrapped in hot air in all directions and quickly achieves the ideal crispy taste.

Inner pot coating quality: Check the wear resistance of the coating, simulate the wiping and cleaning actions in daily use, rub the inner pot coating back and forth with specific tools, and observe the coating shedding; also test the safety of the coating to check whether it contains harmful substances such as heavy metals to prevent harmful substances from migrating to food during cooking and endangering human health.

Noise level: When the air fryer is running at maximum power and in common mode, use a noise tester to measure the noise decibel value at a certain distance from the pot body. Excessive noise not only affects the user experience, but may also indicate problems with the internal mechanical structure.

2. Testing method

Laboratory professional testing: In a laboratory with a standard testing environment, high-precision instruments such as infrared thermometers and airflow velocimeters are used to simulate various cooking scenarios, and the air fryer is tested in all aspects in strict accordance with standard procedures to obtain accurate data.

Actual cooking trial: Invite volunteers with different cooking skills to use air fryers to make various common dishes, collect their feedback on cooking effects, ease of operation, etc., and provide supplementary information for testing from the user's perspective.

3. Testing standards

National standards: Clearly stipulate the basic performance indicators of air fryers, such as temperature control accuracy range, liner coating safety standards, etc., to ensure that consumers buy qualified products and meet basic cooking needs.

Industry norms: Some leading home appliance companies or industry associations have formulated higher requirements and standards on this basis, striving for excellence in hot air circulation optimization, intelligent function improvement, etc., and promoting industry technology upgrades.

4. Significance of testing

Protecting consumer rights: Strictly tested air fryers allow consumers to make delicious food with confidence, avoid cooking failures or health hazards caused by temperature out of control, harmful coatings, etc., and enjoy a safe and delicious cooking experience.

Promoting industrial development: Unified and standardized testing encourages companies to pay attention to product quality, increase R&D investment, eliminate inferior products, create a fair competition market environment, help the air fryer industry flourish, and bring more high-quality products to consumers.
