NinjaAir Fryer | 4 QT Capacity | 4-in1 Roast, Crisp, Roast, Reheats, & Dehydrates | Dishwasher Safe Parts | Includes 20 Easy & Healthy Recipes | Compact | Grey | AF101

I am completely new to an air fryer. I was leaning towards purchasing a toaster oven/ air fryer. I thought it would be nice to have a two in one, yes, more counter space. I have an OLD toaster oven that works perfectly fine. I researched most say "standalone" air fryer is the better choice, Cooks quicker & better all around, verses a two in one. especially for crispy food. I'm not sure what took me so long to get one. I love to cook, unfortunately, it's just for me, kids are grown😩This air fryer is awesome. I have never eaten so many French fries in 57 years! They must be well done just like bacon! Every time fries would come with a takeout order, I would always ask for them to be cooked well done. Seems like a simple request right? Sometimes they even looked well done, but completely soggy! I heat up my fries for 5 minutes and they are perfection!Can't wait to experiment with recipes. A steak sounds great!This Ninja is so easy to clean and user friendly.So it is a pretty big. I mean who wants to lose any counter space?!Super happy with my purchase. If you're thinking about getting an air fryer you won't be disappointed with the Ninja!BTW, very rare do I take the time to Freight up a review! Sadly, because I review everything!

Love my air fryer. We use it all the time. So easy to use and makes a quick meal.

Wow, this thing is great. So, we finally broke down and got an air fryer. I read the reviews and for the money this Ninja one looked like the best deal. Let me tell you something this thing is great. So, it cooks faster than an oven but probably slower than deep frying. It produces crisp, good tasting food that is almost as good as fried.As a fatty I got to say I love my fried food. The air fryer tastes much better than baked and better for you than fried. I mean I can tell a difference now, don’t get me wrong. It is not going to taste like French fries deep fried in lard, but its close.I decide I am going to make hot wings. Good idea, right? Well the first batch came out great. Even better than fried because they were a bit crispier. So, I decide I want to have a glass of wine while I cooked. This was my first mistake. God, I wished I had just went with whiskey. So, I insert the corkscrew into the cork and pop, it broke. Oh well, I thought let’s see what the internet has to offer on alternative methods of wine bottle opening.The first option is to screw a screw into the cork then pry it out using the screw as a lever. Well, I can’t do that because the corkscrew is broken off into the cork. The second option said to use a lighter to heat but the air in the neck of the bottle and the cork will rise out. The third option was to place the bottle in a shoe to not break the glass. Then smack the shoe against a wall. I went with option two. Note this was my second mistake.So, I break out the old lighter and start heating the glass up. Mind you I am also flipping my chicken wings in the air fryer while starting to heat up some hot sauce and other ingredients on the stove for my buffalo sauce. I decided I needed help so enlisted my 18-year child to hold the lighter up to the glass while I cooked. No good, this trick isn’t working.I tell him he can stop we are going to go with option three, the shoe. Here comes the third mistake. I grabbed the bottle. Yep you read that right I bare handed the bottle that I had ben applying a direct flame to for over 5 minutes. To top it off I grabbed the neck. This resulted in the most pain I have ever felt in my entire life. This is the pain Atreyu felt when Artax sunk in the swamp of sadness. This was the pain worse than 10 kicks to the balls. This was real pain. Kidney stones have nothing on my hand at this moment. I was done. My hand felt like it had melted to the bottle.Remember my son that I had help me? Well he is still there, and I must look like a man so I can’t cry, but boy did I want to cry. I haven’t wanted to cry this bad sense I watched “Ole yeller”. Despite the pain and fighting back tears. I managed to place the bottle in my shoe and set it on the table. I am still wanted to try that trick.I then went into first aid mode, hand in the sink water running, ahhhh sweet relief. Unfortunately, that was not to last. The cool water only did so much. I decided burn creme would work. Nope don’t have any. Back to the water. Perhaps some ice. Ahhh flip the wings, run the water, check the sauce wait ….The pot isn’t simmering. Why is the cutting board on the stove look funny? Yep mistake four here I come. I turned on the wrong burner and now my plastic cutting board has turned to liquid on my stove. Hand back in water again. I then retrieve my putty knife to scrape the stove clean. This causes wisps of plastic string to go from the stove to the sink. Hand goes back into the water.At some point my son decides to wake the wife. Did I mention this was at about 1 am? She come into the kitchen and sees me. With one shoe one, a bottle of wine on the table inserted into my shoe. Note she mentions that is the shoe I walk into bathrooms in and its on her table. She then notices the burnt cutting board and an abundance of melted plastic in the sink. She then simply asks “hot wings hu?”She is a god wife and wants me to go to the hospital for my possible 3rd degree burns on my hand but me, being a man, I decide I can tuff it out. She ends up getting me more ice and leaving my son in charge to go back to bed once she understands I am not budging on the whole doctor thing.Anyway, in conclusion the hot wings were the best I have ever made. Although eating them one handed was a bit of a chore. I stayed up all night in pain and now I am out of ice. I never did open that bottle of wine. Also, that air fryer rocks.

Love my Ninja Air fryer. Easy to clean and does everything you need- reheat, fry, etc. Very sturdy and doesn’t take up much room on the counter.

I fought the urge to get an air fryer for years, until I saw this one. I was sold on Ninja products a decade ago. Like everything else from Ninja I have purchased, this is top quality, great price, and dead simple to use.Great results with everything we've cooked in it so far.

I purchased this air fryer to replace my Yedi Total Package 18-in-1 Oven, which I bought back in 2017 and loved for its versatility. While I rarely used all 18 functions, I did appreciate the rotisserie and dehydrator options.This one is compact, quiet, and easy to clean. I use it mostly for diabetes-friendly meals: roasted veggies, crisped tofu, and reheating leftovers without added oil. The interface is straightforward, and the nonstick basket wipes clean with minimal effort.I miss the Yedi’s design and accessories, especially the multi-shelf options and I prefer the Yedi's drop down door to the Ninja pull-out basket.All in all the Ninja is more of a no frills choice, but it gets the job of air frying done.
