Ninja Air Fryer, 4 Qt Capacity, 4-in-1 Crisp, Roast, Reheat, and Dehydrate, Dishwasher Safe Parts, 105°F-400°F, 1550 Watt, Grey, AF101

I wasn't sure about getting an air fryer at first. I did the usual research, watched way too many YouTube videos, and went back and forth for months before finally pulling the trigger on this Ninja. And honestly? I'm glad I did. It's easy to set up, simple to use, and cleans up quicker than I expected. The ceramic basket is a nice touch, especially since we have a pet bird and wanted to avoid any Teflon concerns. Right out of the box, there was a bit of a plastic smell during the first run, but that faded fast after running it on the patio for a bit. As for cooking, it crisps up food way better than a regular oven fish sticks, chicken wings, even a bell pepper stuffed with turkey and cheese all came out surprisingly good. It doesn't hold a ton, but for two people, it's been more than enough. We've used it regularly for over a year now, and it's still going strong. Time and temp adjustments are easy mid-cycle, and while it doesn't beep to remind you to shake the basket, you get used to checking on your own. My only real advice? Don't try opening a wine bottle while using it, trust me on that one. But seriously, this thing has earned a permanent spot in our kitchen. If you're on the fence, I'd say go for it.

Get it! it’s easy to use , the 4 quart is a great size it’s easy to clean ,it’s quick to cook with, you can cook endless possibilities in it, it dehydrates I just opened it today and have already used it twice!!

It's my first air fryer, I got it a month ago and use it consistently since then. It's really is an improvement comparing to the oven, everything cooks faster and doesn't require a lot of oil. I know some people don't add oil at all but I prefer to spray my potato or brussel sprouts, it brings out more flavor. The size is very convenient, it took less space than a microwave, and I use air fryer more often. Nothing burns, everything is so easy to cook and to clean, I'm very happy with the purchase.

Great purchase - ease of use, cleans up quickly, and chicken was delicious (crunchy)

I am sure we all have a cupboard full of useless kitchen appliances that either didn't do what we thought (looking at you pressure cooker) or were so impractical (looking at you juicer that takes $30 worth of fresh greens that need to be used so quickly I have to drink the same thing every day for a week). This is NOT one of them. I finally broke down after several friends said I should get an air fryer. I went online and found many that had more bells and whistles, but upon careful examination of their reviews, either found many suspect reviews or found recent reviews with lots of issues from control panels, to handles falling apart, and peeling nonstick surfaces. The complaints were so common across many brands that I am convinced one company is making them and branding them many ways. The Ninja had none of those complaints, and its ceramic coated cook surface did not have the failing nonstick complaints of the others, so I took the chance. I am so glad I did. Not since the microwave or grind-and-brew coffee maker have I added a kitchen appliance I am so happy with and used so frequently. A majority of food I used to re-heat or cook in the microwave is now being cooked in the Air Fryer with way better results. Basically if its something you might want browned or crispy, its the way to go. I have also made lots of food in int from dry rubbed wings that are as good as Wingstop or BW3, to crispy brussell sprouts like a gourmet restaurant, sweet potato fries and slices that are heavenly, perfectly cooked frozen treats like dim sum (that I used to microwave with barely tolerable results). I even used its dehydrator function to make my own beef jerky that turned out better than almost anything I have purchased. Cleanup is a snap, just washing out the nonstick drawer and its removable bottom plate. I would estimate 1-2 minutes to clean. I know this sounds like an over the top review, but I was frankly shocked at how much I use and love this appliance. Note that I am single so for cooking which require a "single layer" this doesn't make a lot, but is perfect for me. If you have a family you might consider getting a larger model. I truly believe everyone would benefit from an air fryer, but there are a lot of bad brands out there. I am very happy with my Ninja and recommend the brand. If you look at others, be sure to not just look at the "average rating" ( I have seen lots of obviously fake ratings with bad english and the rating being a cut & paste of the product description). I suggest sorting on the newest ratings, and negatives and if you are like me, you may see some trends that will lead you back to the Ninja brand. Pros: - Incredible results for any food you want crispy, not "microwave" rubbery - Very little to no oil needed - Much faster than an oven, heating is quick and the top heating element crisps things beautifully - Easy to use and cleanup - wash the drawer and removable bottom plate in about a minute. - Reheat foods quickly and while remaining crisp - Permanently attached handle (many units have a clip on with many complaints of it failing and dropping hot food) Cons: - Despite the rounded rectangular appearance, the drawer is round. That is not the best shape for cooking some things (like bacon, that has to be cut in half to fit) but all of the rectangular units I found had many quality issues, etc. so I am willing to accept it - The handle is permanently attached to the drawer. Many other manufactures had review complaints of clip on handles falling off so this is a plus from that perspective but makes cleaning a bit harder

Took some experimenting for various foods. To me- this fryer runs hot. I don’t cook anything higher than 350F. Masterclass for both fresh and frozen wings. A crisp delicious delight. Typically 15min at 350F. Pausing periodically to check. Cubed red potatoes seasoned w rosemary are exceptional. Just lightly drizzled with oil. Crispy exterior with perfect tenderness. Some things- forget it. Like trying to add cheese to a patty or meat. The cheese will disintegrate in 15sec. And be blob at the bottom of the fryer. Never in a million years would I put this in the dishwasher, albeit manufacturer say it’s safe. Cleanup with Dawn is easy.

I absolutely love this air fryer! It cooks food quickly and evenly, and it’s very easy to use and clean. It has quickly become one of my favorite kitchen appliances.

The Ninja 4-Qt Air Fryer is a great size for everyday cooking. It’s easy to use and does a good job of making foods crispy without needing much oil. The compact design also makes it convenient for smaller kitchens.
