"I'm delighted with the Ninja Air Fryer. It is incredibly easy to use and cooks quickly and evenly. It has allowed me to enjoy crunchy foods without the need for oil, which makes it a much healthier option. In addition, its compact design saves space in the kitchen and cleaning is very simple. Ideal for anyone looking for a quick, efficient and healthy option to prepare their meals. Totally recommended!” ... show more

    • A Game Changer for Quick, Crispy, Easy Cooking
Style: 5.5 QT MAX
I’ve been using the Ninja AF161 Max XL Air Fryer for about a month, and it’s hands down the best air fryer I’ve owned. It’s super intuitive to use—just pick your temp, set the time, and go. The digital display is clear and easy to read, a big upgrade from my old fryer with unreliable dials. It preheats in just 2-3 minutes and cooks evenly every time. The Max Crisp setting is great for achieving a perfectly crispy texture, especially on foods like chicken, potatoes, and mozzarella sticks. The basket is deep enough to layer food, and with a quick shake, everything cooks evenly and crisps up perfectly. Cleaning is a breeze; the basket is dishwasher-safe and quick to hand wash, plus it’s one solid piece—no tricky parts. It’s quieter than my previous air fryer, with just a mild hum. This air fryer’s roomy 5.5-quart capacity is ideal for cooking for 2-4 people, and I’ve been able to make everything from meats and veggies to cookies with great results. It’s been reliable so far, and knowing Ninja’s history with durable products, I expect this one to last too. For the price, it’s an absolute steal, and I would highly recommend it to anyone looking for a fast, reliable air fryer that consistently delivers. ... show more

    • The gift my mom didn't know she needed - now she uses it non-stop!
Style: 5.5 QT MAX
My mom is notoriously difficult to shop for presents for. Like nearly impossible. She never asks for anything, never wants anything and rarely uses the things I do get her, even if she likes them. But I'd been thinking about how great an air fryer would be for her since she wouldn't have to take all of the pans out of the oven to cook, pre-heat the oven, wait for it to cool down before putting the pans back in while also using extra grease and oil to cook with. My husband I got her this, half expecting her to never use it, but she finally opened it up (we were starting to get a little worried she wouldn't even try it) and was immediately hooked! She finds it very easy to use (she's not tech-savvy at all, but it really is VERY easy and straightforward), versatile (you can make so many things in it including bread!) and easy to clean and put away. It doesn't take up a lot of countertop footprint space, but it can easily cook meals for the whole family (even one thing after another since we have differing tastes in our household) within minutes. It's completely changed the cooking experience for her for the better. She's not hot and sweaty from the oven and doesn't have to haul around pots and pans or add extra calories and fats to the food she's cooking. Since she got it, she's bought herself three air-fryer cookbooks and has made dinner in it at least 3-4 times a week! She's never shown this much interest or excitement out of using something I've given her. It was worth ever penny and more, both because it's an amazing piece of kitchen equipment but also to see her smile when she realized how much it helped her. We still have uses to discover with it since it does so many things, but literally nothing she's tried in it has turned out badly so I'm sure anything else that gets made is going to be amazing, too! ... show more

    • Versatile, Easy to Use, and Perfect for Healthy Meals
Style: 4 QT
The Ninja Air Fryer has made cooking so much easier and healthier! I love the 4-in-1 functionality, which allows me to air fry, roast, bake, and dehydrate all in one compact machine. Whether I’m making crispy fries, frozen foods, veggies, or juicy meat, the 4 QT capacity is perfect for preparing meals for my family without taking up too much space in the kitchen. The air frying feature is a game-changer, delivering the same crispy texture as deep-frying, but with much less oil. It’s the perfect solution for making healthier meals without compromising on flavor or texture. The machine heats up quickly, and the easy-to-use controls make it a breeze to cook meals with just the right settings. Cleaning is super simple, as the non-stick basket is dishwasher-safe. Plus, the compact design means it’s easy to store in my kitchen when not in use. This product offers great value for money, excellent functionality, and is easy to use. If you're looking for a versatile, easy-to-use air fryer for healthier, quick meals, I highly recommend the Ninja Air Fryer AF101! Highly recommend! ... show more

Style: 4 QT
I am really loving this. I got a huge discount by purchasing a returned ninja. Like 50% off. It arrived the next day. I’ve used it 2x so far and it’s amazing. I previously had a toaster oven with an air fryer and wasn’t happy with it. This is easy to clean and my food is delicious. I cook for one but the 4 qt is perfect to put an a chicken breast, carrots and potatoes in it and it’s delicious. Looks sleek. The buttons are easy to use and not terribly loud. ... show more

    • Big
Style: 5.5 QT XL
My son had one and I was impressed. I bought a larger size than his, thinking it would accommodate more people. Its extra size is in the height, though, and we don’t have any cupboards large enough (in our relatively big house) to accommodate it. Very disappointed that this ugly hulk has to sit out on our countertop. It works well and we use it a lot. It cleans up easily in the dishwasher. But had I realized it was going to have to sit out, I would have chosen something different. ... show more
