Absolutely love i
Nothing to add, such an amazing product.
I am using everyday
A must have for your kitche
Easy to use and has replaced are Electric Oven for most of are cooking
I live on my own and I am in a wheelchair so this has really helped me with my independence so iv been doing bit more cooking
Excellent product I love i
I bought it as a present for my daughter, and she loves i
Good Produc
Love this piece of kit – easy to use and fantastic for cooking. Have to mess about with timings but you will get the hang of it in no time.
I’d originally bought a single chambered Ninja air fryer to see if it was a worthy cooking device; and yes it is for me. This dual chambered unit is WELL worth the upgrade; arrived yesterday and I used it tonight. Really easy to wash out and clean. Really good to cook with.
Replaced my single airfryer for this so I can cook the whole meal at once it’s fantastic can do for example my homemade chips in one side and salmon in the other, so many cooking options including dehydrate. Really easy to clean too.
Perfec
A perfect air fryer. The sync option is a game changer for cooking two different things that require two different times. I’m so so happy I chose this one after searching through so many!
Good
Yes very impressive had one years ago and gave it away but they have most certainly updated themselves use most days now and did away with my long suffering micro wave and has given me more space as it’s very nea
Fantastic bit of ki
Really pleased with it, don’t think I’ve turned on the oven once since I’ve owned it. Foods been coming out fantastic and Really enjoyed trying new things. The only very small issue is the sync sometimes takes a couple off attempts which can be slightly frustrating.
Good cooking
Great to use, economical and quick. No oven to clea
Brilliant, hard to find but well worth the money. We have used it evry day since we got it. The Ninga is very easy to use and gives great results.
Love i
Ideal for healthy family cooking. Easy to use and clean.
Ninja air frye
It was easy to use cooked chicken easily also chicken nuggets even cooked sweetcorn in it. It was easy to clean and asked Alexa for guidance on how long to cook things, does have a small cooking guidance in the booklet but easier to ask alexa only downfall I’ve found so far is I should have bought the double one
Nice design, not too big. Great for baking cake as well as frying of course. Easy to clean. Great value for money.
Healthier and faster cooking!
I really like how little oil , if any is needed! How did I manage without it!
I am thrilled with my ninja air fryer, the food tastes so good. I am so pleased I bought it.
We bought this to use in our Motorhome. Perfect .fresh bread, breakfasts, and can all be easily cooked outside if i ya ou fancy i
Brillia
I wish I didn’t wait to do long to buy one. A great machine that does so everything I need it to. Wouldn’t be without one now.
Best around
difficult to fault. Does what it should do and its a game changer for speed and low energy. we have done basis but also crispy fried chicken wings too. its awesome !!
great item
sorry i have not bought one before… brilliant…great chiops..oinon rings…pizza…burger..still a learning curb…but i like the liners make it easy to keep clean…great for samosas…as well
cooking made easy.
good price, delivered on time, Fits on my work top without taking up to much space which works well in my small kitchen the best cooking devise I have ever owned very easy to use cooks food quickly crisps up certain fried foods without having to use oils and fats , would recommend , Top marks Ninja.
Easy to use
I bought my Ninja Airfryer over 12 month’s ago in the 1st lockdown & have used it so much. I have recommended to other people several times & have just bought this exact same one for my parents as a wedding anniversary gift. It is already enhancing their life in the kitchen as it has mine.
Improved Air Frye
The next model in the Ninja line up, more space inside, for large items, and quick air fry functions too for frozen foods.
Easy and straightforward to use, just as with the previous model of air fryer.
How did I survive without one?
Brilliant product. Very easy to use. Cooks items so well, veggies are gorgeous
Cooks so fast and clean !!!
Fantastic !!! So quick and easy, cooks chicken faster than it takes my main oven just to heat up !!! I’m a complete convert, this air fryer makes cooking fun and easy (and I usually hate cooking) considering getting my daughter one for Uni !
Great addition to kitche
Trial and error to begin with but worth it in the end. Food probe and silicone tongs essential.
Easy to Use Air Frie
Though easy to use, it needs experimentation regarding quantities, time & temperature. So I haven’t tried it extensively yet – good results with chips so far. Reason for 4/5 stars is the annoying chemical smell when first heated. Advice about that on the ninja website advises how to proceed before cooking food.
Love i
Cooks a perfect steak, burgers, bacon, vegetables, just about anything, saves so much time, brilliant for todays busy lifestyle’s
Why didn’t we get one sooner???????
Easy to use, does what it says on the box.
Fantastic jacket potatoes, we do microwave for about 5 minutes first, but the skins are lovely and hard, the potato is creamy. Chips crispy, soft inside. We are still experimenting as quite new.
Highly recommend .
Great piece of kit, just wish I’d bought the dual compartment one now
Great piece of kit, just wish I’d bought the dual compartment one now
Economical,easy to use and clea
Easy to clean and use, no scrubbing required and takes less time than a conventional oven as heating less space. Wish I’d bought it years ago
I am in LOVE
Only had this for a few hours and already cooked my salmon for dinner in it. Chicken for hubbys lunch tomorrow and baked a cake in it !! A few things need tweaking but I am so pleased with the initial results. It can only get better ! I forgot to put the cake on bake to start with and did it on the AIR FRY button but it still came out pretty tasty just a bit crisp on top ! I wont be doing that again !
It was lighter than I expected and it fits nicely in my cupboard.
Really easy to clean.
1000% happy with it.
I love this cooke
I like the easy clean aspect,the tasty crispy food and the size is generous. It has saved me time as I haven’t got a splattered hob to clean and its much healthier using minimal amounts of oil
Amazing produc
So this is a life changer . I’ve had it a week and I haven’t used my other oven since .
Brilliant addition to the kitche
Absolutely love this Air Fryer. I washed it out before I first used it and not had a problem with smells or weird tastes. As long as you follow the instruction it works really well.
I cooked a whole chicken in it, potatoes, bacon, chicken wings. Each time cooked perfectly. With chips and potatoes you need to give them a shake half way through to ensure they all cook properly. Otherwise you will get some more cooked than others.
Halved my cooking time and reducing the amount of electric I am using to a big win for us.
So easy to clean. As soon as I have finished cooking I fill with hot water and washing liquid and leave to cool then just wipe around and it’s clean.
Good gadge
Bought this as my oven isn’t the best. The Ninja is quick and easy to use. I’ve cooked frozen pie and jacket potatoes up to now and they were lovely. Well worth the money
Simple to use saves time and money
Nothing to dislike about this airfrier. It’s really easy to use and so versatile. The ceramic coating on the drawer is superior to normal non stick coatings. The Ninja oozes quality throughou
Air frye
Great little fryer I’ve done a whole chicken I’ve done brilliant chips in it and I’ve done chicken wings and all come out nice and crispy lovely and tasty Would definitely recommend
The best thing I’ve ever bough
This air fryer is amazing, worth every penny, easy to use, meals for my family are so much easier and it’s very easy to clea
Changing the way I cook my food
Instead of frying or oven baking
The disadvantage is the timer always starts at 20 minutes, when I can’t think of anything that takes that long to cook
Brillia
Getting to use more elements of the airfryer. All food tastes lovely. No disasters yet. Able to Google times and temperatures no need for cookbook which appears to be overpriced for what you ge
grea
I have thrown the deep fryer out so…. health benefits maybe, use this for all sorts of things, sausages, bacon, chips (of course) chicken, the list goes on, where the griddle plate on the gas hob was used its not as often, I can’t fault i
WISH 'ID BOUGHT THIS YEARS AGO.
I cook everything in here from cheese on toast tp onion bhajees, Cooks a pizza in 4 minutes. Ideal for two people. There is nothing it can’t cook in a fraction of a time of conventional oven. FISRT CLASS and so easy to clean with the ceramic coating.
A complete life changer wouldn’t be without i
I bought this on a whim as my son is coeliac and so is cooking separate things is sometimes a challenge if we aren’t having the same meal
Initially I was a little bit worried about using it as the instructions are limited but I soon got my confidence and use it every day I love the fact that it is so easy to clean and you can have food on the table in half the time of using a traditional oven
It cooks meat and fish perfectly as well as crispy healthy fries and potatoes
I start a jacket potato in the microwave and then finish it on grill for about 20 minutes and it is absolutely perfect! I use it for bacon as well
My son has the gluten-free bread that needs baking and so was switching the oven on every day just for a couple of rolls but now we put it in this for five minutes and it is perfect
not only is it convenient but it is much cheaper to run than an oven and there is no warm up time
I love it and can’t recommend it enough I tell everybody about it!
Best air fryer I ever used
Previously I owned Philips air fryer it was OK for simple use but it’s very hard to clean. ninja air fryer is One of the best air fryer in the market, it can be used as both an air fryer and dehydrator. I use it everyday its very easy to use and to clean.
Great Cooking Aid
Best thing I have bought in a long time. I have not used my oven since buying. Easy to use and so far food has been cooked to perfection although I have to refer to recipe book. Very easy to clean and the machine looks good on my worktop. Very impressed.
Ninja is a Winne
This has exceeded expectations.
What a winner! Bought 5.2 ltr good size for family of 3.
Very quick, easy to use, no problem for cleaning.
Excellent for frozen chips, nuggets.
Great for bacon, fresh chicken, spring rolls.
he best thing I own!
I bought this in preparation of my kitchen being taken out and im so impressed!. Ive been cooking all my kids dinners in it, chips, chicken nuggets, wedges, jackets potatoes and its all perfect!. I dont think ill ever cook the kids dinner in anything else and it takes less than 10 minutes!
The only think I will say is the timings in the book are sometimes double whats needed, i cooked chicken strips and it recommended 15 mins, i checked on it after 7 mins and they were done so I would suggest not taking too much notice of the times and work it out yourself.
You won’t regret buying this.
My oven is just used for storage now
Spent a year investigating and comparing different air fryers. I was really tempted to get a larger one for the rotisserie chicken option but settled for this ninja based on the reviews. I am not disappointed. My evening meals are speedy and a dream, I just throw in some veggies to roast, some fish and have food done in minutes. The chicken comes out crispy on the outside and juicy on the inside. The time cut from warming up the oven is a gamechanger. One word of warning, do check the food regularly. I had to change some of the timings/temp on some of my items as the internet is full of air fry recipes but not necessarily for this model and make. The beauty of this airfryer is the ability to check on the food and change the settings as needed.
Game changing piece of ki
This fryer is amazing !
It’s easy to use, easy to clean, much cheaper to run than the oven, and the food is cooked beautifully – also way less cooking smells
Every home should have one !
Only slight drawback is it’s size, but compared to all of the benefits its well worth the counter space it takes up
Wish I’d gotten one ages ago
Very versatile, easy and simple.
Great air fryer and very easy to use and clean. Ideal for meals for 2 people but probably not more.
Only problem I’ve found, it was not supplied with a grill stand which allows more food to be added and a better air circulation. I have purchased a grill that fits but it should be supplied with one that fits nicely.
Hardly use our gas oven now!
My husband and I are so impressed with this. We had an old tefal actify which did years of service but was a bit limited in what we could cook with it. I have cooked everything from cakes, (small) roast chickens, lamb chops and frozen pastries in this. On the ‘roast’ setting it is basically a little oven that heats up super quick. The first 2wks we had it we never switched on our gas oven.
The pan on this one isn’t huge which if you having a roasting joint may not quite fit – I got a gammon for 5 of us in it yesterday with a bit of careful trimming.
It’s really easy to clean the pan and griddle insert and they are well made. It doesn’t take up any more counter space than our old actify either but is so much more versatile. Careful not to position it too close to kitchen cupboards (we made this mistake) or the melamine (?) can lift.
I can really see that if we had a bigger version (foodie?) we would seriously consider saying goodbye to our gas oven which with energy prices the way they are could possibly pay for itself.
A very practical cooking appliance in many ways
This appliance is a joy to use. It is versatile, easy to control, easy to clean, compact and does’nt cost a fortune in energy use compared to having to heat up a cavernous conventional oven. I would imagine most makes of air fryer are of the same in attributes but the reason I chose this brand was the good reviews it received and I like the shape and colour. So far no problems encountered and converted to tasty roasted veg etc. Extremely pleased with this purchase and therefore can highly recommend.
Easy to use, convenient & easy to clea
I bought this after reading the reviews. Found it easy to use. It’s saved me from using the oven all the time and to help with the cost of raising electric prices. So far I’ve used it to cook cheese on toast, fish fingers, quorn nuggets, bacon, small pizza & frozen chips . I tend to cook these at 180 temperature and they don’t take long to cook at all. Fish fingers & quorn nuggets and the chips probably take about 12 minutes to cook. I’ve had no complaints from my daughter about her food but my husband is old fashioned and likes the oven. I’m converting him slowly to my way of thinking.
perfect.
I was begging my mother to get this for us as it would be a great addition to our appliances which we already have at home, we literally use it everyday, but i try to cut down. using this airfryer has shown how much oil food already comes in. making your own chips in this is lovely. keep in mind, i thought the amount of minutes is what it was, so the highest temp. is 210 and lowest is 170. sausages in these are great. literally can do anything. when i got this i said ‘if you do not have an appliance, this is the first one u should get’. There are four modes: air fry, roast, reheat, dehydrate. but don’t worrry as it automatically does it for you. cooking roast potatoes in here are good too. nice and stylish. easy to clean. makes a beep noise at the end before going off
Love it!!
OMG, how did I live without this. I use it every day. Everything you do in a conventional oven you can do in this, and there’s no mess or splattering. Timing is a bit of trial and error, but you soon pick it up. Steaks, toasties, bacon, toasties, and even roast joints. I’ve never managed to make pork cracking right, but this does it perfect, fabulous piece of kit, and so so easy to clean, just wipe with kitchen towel. Also saves time, and therefore energy costs. Buy one, you won’t regret it.
Convenient Cooking
I ordered this for my elderly father and he is very pleased with how well it cooks and quick. Cooking single meals in the Ninja is probably cheaper than putting stuff in the oven, and with the price of gas going up it will probably cover the investment costs.
We were procrastinating about getting an air fryer for a while but having finally done our research, we decided on the Ninja.
Best decision we ever made! Not only is it clean, quick and convenient but we have never tasted food like it! I was concerned food wouldn’t be crispy enough, but I needn’t have worried. Its crisper than being fried or grilled.
Takes away that greasy oily residue and minimises those smokey smells.
Only down side is it takes a couple of uses to get rid of that first use “plastic-y” smell but other than that it’s a winner.
We went for the AK100 3.8ltr size as there is only two of us and its ample for what we need.
So don’t procrastinate as long as we did, get one and ditch that deep fat fryer. Good for you and good for environment.
Winner, winner chippie dinner!
Game change
In times of rising energy costs this air fryer is a real game changer. No longer do I have to heat up the oven to bake, fry, roast or reheat a meal. Quick and easy to use, takes up less space than a microwave and the food comes out so much nicer too! It’s not just a fancy and healthier way to cook chips, although those do come out fluffy and crisp, I’ve used it for cooking sausages, chicken pieces, salmon, reheating a slice of pie where the pastry that’s stayed lovely and flaky. This model has a dehydration function too that I haven’t used yet however have some fresh herbs to try later. A good investment and I’ve seen people buy a cheaper brand only to upgrade later. I grabbed mine when I saw it on special and very pleased with my purchase.
Wow
We got a bit sick of the deep fat fryer, the smell when oil was getting a bit thin, then the changing oil and cleaning the greasy equipment, Well no more. What a revelation, getting the af100uk, we thought we’d try it on a few frozen curly chips to start, see how it went, well, absolutely perfect, jut like when deep fried but without the oil and as quick, then last night decided to try it on sausage and bacon, one set in the fryer and one under the grill, just to compare, well apart from the sausages (cooked from frozen in both) crisping but not browning in the air frier like under the grill, which could just be a timing/temperature learning curve, you could not tell the difference between the two separate plates, absolutely spot on. The air frier seems so much easier, with a nice bright display and easy to operate, not like the VCRs of old.
We have only had it for two days but are so impressed with this model so far we would highly recommend. One noticeable thing was the original newness smell when first used which has lingered around for a while but am sure will go once in full use.
Brilliant Air Frye
I got this Ninja Foodi Max Dual Zone Airfryer for my hubby to use, as he likes the convenience of good quality gadgets as I do. It’s a clever air fryer that can use just one drawer or both. They can synchronise to finish at the same time, even though one needs less time or a different temperature or cooking method. It has cooked things well, it comes with a booklet on cooking times, like all airfryer machines it is a bit of trial and error, we have cooked a whole medium chicken in one drawer successfully and cooked sauted potatoes in the other. It does bake too like an oven. I like the fact the drawers and inner trays are dishwasher safe. The only thing is the size of it, I put it on an IKEA trolley I’d bought for this as our worktop space was lacking. It’s a great addition to our kitchen, I definitely recommend getting the bigger one as the drawers aren’t huge. Happy to recommend.
Easy for cooking
I’m surprised I’ve left it this long before reviewing. I was instantly sold on this when my brother used his to reheat a takeaway pack of chips and it tasted like we just got it. It’s great for reheating and obviously airfryibg with very minimal oil so a very healthy option in my opinion.

I have had my Ninja for a week and am find8ng it fantastic. I am 82 years old and thought it would be a nightmare to learn how to use but quite the opposite it is easy, and very adaptable. The pictures show my first offerings of little cakes. Just a small amount of mix, 4,4,4 & 2 eggs made 10 little cakes, 5 with butter icing and 5 fruit. I wasn’t sure of timing so just put on for 10 mins and then increased a few minutes at a time until happy. I really should write the timing down and will next time. The pork chops were amazing., just rubbed with oil, and then added salt and sage & onion herbs. I had the chops in one basket for 12 mins on air fry and the baked potatoes in the other for an hour, turning over each half way through. Potatoes too big delivered by Tesco but my hubby loves his baked pots. I saved one of mine for the following day. As you can tell I am very excited and pleased with my air fryer, the dual max 2.
Excellent double mini fan oven - but it only lasted a month
Returned a Tefal Active Fry as it was hopeless and this works SO much better. Sausages done in 10 mins, chips get crispy – saves energy and saves time. Needs a couple of shakes during cooking but its quick easy. Ours is being retuned as it cuts out and switches completely off mid programme so hopefully the next one will be fine. Since we have had we literally haven’t used the main 2000w oven which takes 5 mins to warm up and uses double the power of ONE drawer in this.

Simple to use for nearly everything
Since buying, I have used my ninja daily, and I haven’t used the oven at all. I made bread rolls yesterday on the dehydrate and then bake settings, egg on toast, gorgeous homemade chips and wedges. I would definitely get the bigger version for a family of 4 but I love this one. It can cook wet foods but I wouldn’t cook a soup for example. Cupcakes were amazing but I wouldn’t cook broccoli although things like roasted Brussels would probably be very nice. No downsides so far but you will need worksurface space, it’s too big and heavy to store in a cupboard and it needs room all around to allow airflow otherwise it could overheat. It must not be placed on a cooker either. Overall 5 star product.

a good buy
i am an 85 year old widower and this is the best thing ever. i can cook a full meal without waiting around and watching the stove. it seems to cook most things including remarkably air frying an egg that is soft boiled and runny as if done in a saucepan. it does lovely bacon , chips , vegetables, roast potatoes , steak in fact almost everything. love it and it also bakes a cake.
Quick and easy
One of the best gadgets I have ever bought for the kitchen. I was thinking about the cost of gas going through the roof and how long things take to cook in the oven. My brother had recommended this model to me and I am not disappointed. It makes cooking quick and easy and the food tastes great and less fatwhat’s not to love Very pleased and happy custome
Works well but cheaply made for the price
Wanted something easier to use, quicker than an oven & easier to clean. The features are handy, I wouldn’t say the chips etc are better than fat fried but they are a healthier alternative & better than oven cooking. You do need to shake chips midway though for a decent result and not burnt Chips.
It says the trays are dish wasable. There’s no way that non stick coating & plastic chrome’s (I’ll come on to that) looks dish washable. In fact when reading other reviews people had commented that their non stick has begun to peel. Mine has peeled slightly on the top respite hand washing & no where in that location for it to scrape on after a few days use. They said return it but what’s the point when Amazon doesn’t have the model back in stock for the price I got it for. They don’t do replacements. If it gets worse or in the tray itself I’ll have to.
For the price of the unit I’d expect metal chrome trims and handles. Not the cheap plastic Chrome they use. I was very disappointed about that. Overall, cosmetics aside it is a good unit. Much easier and quicker to cook and I don’t regret the purchase. I just wished they took a bit more pride in their build considering the cost compared to competitors.
Brilliant.
Best purchase I have made for a long, long time.
Easy to use temp and timer controls (temp changes in degrees of 10 and timer changes in minutes).
Have cooked various things so far from sausages and roast potatoes to cheese on toast (with ciabatta rolls) and pies and they all cook excellently. You will need to adjust temps and times when cooking, for example; if instructions are to cook at 190c for 15 mins, I would suggest setting the temp to 170 and the time to10-12 minutes.
3.8l compartment is more than enough for 1 person although don’t try to cook a whole chicken in it unless it’s a small one.
Really good
IM new to the whole air fryer revolution but I knew one thing, I wanted a Ninja.
Having used their products before the Ninja is up there and consistently held as one of the best.
This is the entry level to their range btu for me is fantastic as it lets me cook my chicken each day with zero fuss and mess and it tastes just as good as if I had pan fried it.
This model has cooking/temp and time controls. And the really reason you should buy this over others, the ceramic crisping plate and the bowl are super easy to clean and dishwasher safe.
I do wish it had a minute minder on it, but it is the entry level model.
If I were to buy again I would probably get the larger version or even the two draw one but on reflection, for its intended purpose it serves me well.
Brilliant air frye
I just love the Ninja air fryer I’ve hardly used my oven since I bought this item. No waiting for the oven to heat up. I just pop food in the fryer, maybe chips in one side and sausages, fish or whatever in the other side. Easy to set up, even if it’s different cooking times. The fryer will hold the shorter cooking time so both are ready at the same time I was worried when I ordered it as I thought it might be complicated but couldn’t be simpler. Thoroughly recommend great buy

Wonder Gadge
I had a tower air fryer which I used a lot, but with my husband, 2 kids and myself, I’ve been meaning to get a larger unit for some time. I finally took the plunge and splurged on the Ninja Foodi dual air fryer, giving me the room to cook more and two seperate items at once. Tonight I did fries in one side and BBQ chicken griddles in the other for my two children which took 15 minutes! The functions are easy to use and are self explanatory, but a helpful manual and booklet gives you illustrated instructions how to use and care for the unit, the best settings and temps to use for various items and a few recipe suggestions at the back. I synced my items so my fries could cook for 20 minutes and the griddles at 15 minutes would start 5 minutes after the fries started cooking to ensure cooking completed at the same time. This is a great function, however I found my fries cooked quicker than expected so I reduced the temp and cooking time. Unfortunately the fries did not hold on this occasion and wait for the griddles to catch up, the sync function only works at the start of the cooking set up and as far as I can see, although the food can be adjusted temp and time wise at any time, it will not resync during the cooking period. I may discover a way to do this with more use, as I only got the unit today and it will take some practice on seeing how long foods take to cook. However the two items cooked to perfection and the unit did what it claimed to do. The crisper and drawers clean easily, I’m very pleased so far!
A must have in the kitche
Great air fryer, used it frequently the last 2 weeks and found the dual fry options so useful, easy to clean, doesn’t consume a lot of electricity and the food comes out crispy when needed, the frying units are very spacious too.
Sits nice on my kitchen top with enough space for the air to filter away.
Wife is happy too.
My conventional oven is these days used for little other than a plate warme
I have been an air-fryer fan since acquiring my first one twelve months ago, and am enthusiastic about the whole process. The one major fault of the previous air-fryer was simply that one could only cook one item/course at a time, which inevitably meant keeping the one item hot in the conventional oven whilst the second course cooked. Not always an effective solution.
Step up the Ninja.
Its major benefit is the two “fryers”. Two courses can effectively be cooked at the same time; the fryer can even be programmed so the two finish at the same moment. Admittedly I have not made great use of this feature as it is easy enough to work out beforehand how long each course will take and commence them cooking accordingly — each drawer can be used completely independently.
And what a range of cooking methods it can cope with; I routinely air-fry, bake and roast, but there are several other methods available. About the only thing one cannot do is anything involving liquids to any degree.
Chips are absolutely wonderful cooked in an air-fryer — crisp on the outside and soft and fluffy on the inside, and as an additional bonus the Ninja has a “max crisp” function, whereby one can maximise the crispness, though one is advised to keep an eye on this during cooking, as it’s easy to go one step beyond crispness!
A very acceptable steak can be cooked in the fryer, and pies and similar are done to perfection. One can even roast a whole (small) chicken. Fresh fish are absolutely wonderful cooked in the fryer, soft and flaky white flesh nicely grilled and browned on the surface.
As each function is selected, the fryer so adjusts the required temperature and cooking time, although these can be (and often are) manually overridden as they may not be quite right for one’s taste. Indeed one can disregard the default settings for each function and manually select the temperature and cooking time to one’s own preference.
The fryer drawers can be opened during cooking which pauses the timer, whilst one turns or “tosses” the food product (essential in some cases and especially with chips), and can be stopped prematurely should the food be cooked earlier than anticipated.
The machine is admirably designed and constructed. I was personally a tad concerned about all the flashy chrome; a flashy exterior can often conceal a less than adequate interior. Not with the Ninja, the machine is robust and strong, the drawers themselves, and especially the “crisper plates” — the raised trays the food sits on, are very robust, something my previous air-fryers’ weren’t.
The only thing I cannot attest to is durability, as I have only had the machine a little less than two months. However it is used every day, and continues to perform splendidly.
My conventional oven is these days used for little other than a plate warmer.
A must have in the kitche
Great air fryer, used it frequently the last 2 weeks and found the dual fry options so useful, easy to clean, doesn’t consume a lot of electricity and the food comes out crispy when needed, the frying units are very spacious too.
Sits nice on my kitchen top with enough space for the air to filter away.
Wife is happy too.
