Review: After our first random air fryer purchase up and died on us, it was time to search for a new one. When we bought our first one, there were less options and we just went with one that we had used in the workplace. Surprisingly, that air fryer lasted us about 8 years so there are no complaints considering the price we paid at the time and that it was a no name one. Now that air fryers have been around a lot longer and become a more common kitchen appliance, I wanted to find something that would fit more with our cooking needs.Enter this Ninja air fryer. I’ll admit, in the beginning I had some misgivings about the brand in general as I own no other Ninja products but I know many who do. I opted to do lots of research so that this next air fryer would be the perfect kitchen companion for us. After reading through many actual kitchen tests and top ten lists and comparing all the pros and cons against what we needed…we chose this Ninja model.Now even after comparing the dimensions to our old air fryer, it still didn’t prepare me for the massiveness of this beast and that is a good thing. Many of the top rated lists clearly state that this is a larger unit, good for parties and large families. I expected it but was still surprised (in a good way) by the size of this. The big thing we wanted was capacity to run multiple racks at once and be able to monitor the cooking process. This Ninja air fryer is truly like a mini convection oven with extra bells and whistles. After playing around with this and testing out different functions — I am left wondering how we didn’t realize that this was out there and an option. It makes it seem like we were slumming it with our last air fryer.There are so many things that I love about this. The option to turn the inner light on/off at will (no more using a flashlight to check your cooking). The true fan that will make circulating the heat way more efficient (no more needing to turn or rotate food). The ability to change time or temperature in the middle of cooking WITHOUT it resetting the whole thing-so I love being able to add another minute or turn up or down the temps without it starting all over again. The fact that there is a pan/basket/grill accessory for every cooking need you might need (I also bought an extra wire basket as that is the the one we use the most). The large glass front that makes viewing your food super easy so you can easily gauge whether you need more time or less time…all without having to open it. The ease of choosing functions and the easy user interface that makes temp and time choice a no brainer for anyone to use–perfect.The only thing I was not expecting is the sound when this is in use. Yes, it is louder than our last but I actually prefer that for the sole reason that I can hear if this air fryer is still cooking even if I’m in the next room. Now, it’s not like I hear it from down the hall or anything but the adjacent rooms can hear this and now we joke that an airplane is taking off whenever we use this. It’s not like you are sleeping when you use this so the noise thing is not a deal breaker in any way for me.This air fryer has found it’s way to the top 2 appliances used in our household and I could not imagine being without our Vitamix blender OR this air fryer…we use both daily. The large size makes cooking a lot quicker, a word on that–if you do not need the larger size and instead want speed, opt for a smaller unit as this is bigger it takes more time to heat and cook BUT it will still be faster than using a regular sized oven. Everything that we have cooked in this so far has been easy to do and cooked well. The accessories are easy to obtain from Ninja or Amazon and reasonably priced. I look forward to a long and healthy relationship with this Ninja air fryer!

Review: Todas sus funciones cumplen adecuadamente lo que promete, hornea bien, fríe bien y deshidrata bien, el mejor horno eléctrico que hay, el único detalle sería que es un poco difícil su limpieza, de ahí en fuera 10/10.

Review: I did a LOT of reading of reviews, articles and descriptions before deciding on this model. I have never been so excited about a new appliance, except for perhaps my first washing machine, but I digress. I measured my available space options to ensure enough clearance for heat, which I highly recommend. While my upper cupboards have a decorative bar along the edge a scant inch above the oven, the dissipating heat is not significant and they only get warm, not hot.I did discover that the small heat vent at the top of the back part does put out a lot of heat and moisture, so condensation can occur on my tiles behind this, even with over 15 cm/ 6” of clearance. So I put my oven on a piece of parchment paper and it now slides easily whenever I use it – I just turn it left so the back points out to the side away from the tiles. If I had an open space to put it, this wouldn’t be a concern. (See photos of back and side of oven space on my counter)My first meal was a 5 lb whole chicken – oh my it was so moist and flavourful! Perfect with the thermometer and a rack of potato wedges baking above in the basket. I do have my own meat thermometer, but it is super convenient to have the smart technology preprogram exactly how you like roasts, chicken, etc done. That was worth the extra money to have!I’ve since made many meals, roasts, even a 11.5 lb turkey! Baking squash chunks, roasting carrots and other veggies, or air frying them is quick and easy. Fish fillets are not dried out or overcooked once you learn the timings…since we don’t eat fried foods per se, but do enjoy roasted and air fried foods done this way, I bought a second air fryer basket. I couldn’t find a Ninja one, so ordered a Corsori one and it fits perfectly on the rack. You’d not use two racks at the same time as two baskets so that works well for me. (See photo with two baskets in place).Cleaning is a snap – even the baked-on grease or fat comes off readily if you put the pans/racks in warm soapy water right away to soak a bit – nothing a little effort can’t remove. Giving the interior a good wipe after each use prevents a buildup of grease/fat that may be very small droplets, but do accumulate over time. I use a sponge with a plastic scrubbie, nothing that could scratch the metal.My only wish is that there was a better (and free) guide for times to cook various common foods. From what I’ve read, most people reviewed the Ninja cookbook and said it wasn’t really worth the money. I use the internet for ideas, although one does get good at estimating time and temperatures.So, would I recommend this – absolutely! It is nice to look at, intuitive to use after a few times, easy to clean, effective and efficient with heat, and I’m sure will save me money in the long run from not using my huge oven all the time! Now I need to update my microwave, as even this Ninja doesn’t completely replace reheating up a cup of coffee haha!

Review: Todo sale muy bien, carne, pollo, pescado, papas fritas, no hay necesidad de voltear los alimentos para su correcta cocción.Lo unico malo es o que se pudiera mejorar en un futuro es:- Se calienta mucho por todos lados cuando esta en uso.- Es como las estufas, si se cae algo de comida fuera de las bandejas se pega y llega a hacer un horror limpiarla.- Es muy ruidosa cuando está en operación de air fry, no es molesto como una licuadora.- Como es un horno grande, pues tarda un poco mas en cocinar los alimentos.- Es muy espaciosa.En resumidas cuentas y a pesar de todos los contras, la volvería a comprar, me hace la vida muy fácil y gracias a ella de deje de comer mucho aceite, Llevo una vida mas saludable y facil.

Review: Our main oven stopped working, and when we were faced with the decision of replacing it, especially in the current pandemic climate, we were a bit stuck on what to do. Should we brave going out into an appliance store to look at a new full size oven? Then go through the process of having the new full size oven delivered into our home? We decided against this and looked into a temporary solution that would tide us over for potentially the next 6 months to a year, and here enter the Ninja Foodi 10-in-1 Air Fry Digital Countertop Convection Oven!We have been using the oven for about a month at this point, and this product has completely exceeded our expectations! It literally pre-heats in under 1 minute to temperatures around 425 F, which easily is 5 to potentially 10 times faster than our full size oven when it was working optimally! That alone cuts down considerably on cooking and prep times when it’s come to family meals! The size of the countertop oven is also incredible, obviously being not as large as a full size oven, but more than adequate for every meal we have been cooking over the past month for our family of 3!It’s also incredibly easy and intuitive to use, my 3 year old loves to help push the buttons to commence cooking, and if we let him know the Mode, Cooking Temp and Time, even he knows how to get everything started and cooking every time successfully (always with our supervision of course)!I’ve read some of the negative reviews, and I can state that yes, the oven fan does make noise, but it is hardly enough to be considered “too noisy”. It’s not silent or super quiet, but it’s definitely no louder than a normal microwave.Also, some negative reviews have stated the oven is difficult to clean due to the design of the heating elements. I can understand this if food splatter or crumbs build up at the bottom of the oven, but after a month of use, we have not had very much mess result from our cooking, but I’m sure with more use we will encounter some cleaning challenges. We actually just use one of the provided cooking pans placed on the bottom rack for any items we cook directly on the third rack, and this has been able to catch any falling food debris keeping the bottom quite clean. In this way, I feel much of the criticisms can either be easily overcome, or aren’t as bad as some of the more negative focused reviews are making it sound.Overall, this product is becoming one of our most essential and most used kitten items in our household, which says a lot of an item we were only initially looking to purchase to temporarily substitute for our full size oven. To be honest, we’re now only using our full size oven for its stove top, which still works, and we may just continue to use the Ninja Foodi 10-in-1 Air Fry Digital Countertop Convection oven as our primary family home oven for the foreseeable future! Even when we get the option to replace our full size oven, which to our family, says a whole lot about the quality and genuine worth of this product! So highly recommended, and I’m also now very excited to look at other Ninja Foodi products to add to our kitchen collection!
