I put off getting an air fryer for so long because I frankly wasn’t sure we needed one.

Boy, was I mistaken.

We’ve had this thing for almost three years now and it really is the best Ninja air fryer.

I love that you can cook in two baskets at the same time. This can be two completely different things cooked at completely different settings, or you can match cook (match the cooking settings from one basket to the other).

One amazing setting I haven’t really tested out yet is the Smart Finish: the ability for the air fryer to manage foods cooking at different temps and different times and have them finish at the same time.

This is so great if you are cooking different foods and want them to be done at the same time.

All of these settings make for such quick and easy meal/snack making. 

This Ninja air fryer has 6 settings: air fry, air broil, roast, reheat, dehydrate, and bake. It has a wide range of temperature and cooking times.

It has such a nice and easy configuration with no extreme learning curve.

We use our air fryer for so many things: pizza rolls, chicken nuggets, mozzarella sticks, salmon, sausage, and so much more.

Food cooks very evenly in this air fryer. We’ve never had a problem where some of the food wasn’t cooked to temperature.

In addition, the sound it makes when cooking, as well as the finished chime, are not overly obnoxious or loud.

The baskets and plates are pretty easy to clean, as well. 

I will say that after extended use and cleaning, our plates have started to chip a little, but that could honestly just be because of my vigorous scrubbing, lol.
