Q: QuestionI just bought the Ninja Air Fryer 101 and cannot get the crisper plate out of the basket? Help

Asked 6 years ago by lind.

• A:Answer I had the same thing happen to me the first time I removed it. It seemed to be stuck and I was worried about breaking it. Just pull really hard straight up and it will come free. Once you get it out the first time, it fits back in easy and will be easy to remove in the future. Not sure why first time removal is so hard, but I experienced the same thing.

Asked 7 years ago by betts.

• A:Answer Hello betts, We would like you to know that the Ninja® 4 qt. Digital Air Fryer, AF100 and AF101, are the same unit. The difference is that the AF101 includes the Multi-layer rack and a 20-recipe inspiration guide. The AF100 includes a 10-recipe inspiration guide. Cleaning this machine is very easy. Before cleaning, unplug the unit from the wall outlet. To clean the main unit and the control panel, wipe them with a damp cloth. The basket and crisper plate are both dishwasher safe. If there is food residue stuck on the crisper plate or basket, place them in a sink filled with warm soapy water and allow them to soak. Use a soft sponge to help remove any remaining residue. We hope this information helps. The Customer Support Team

Q: QuestionIs a 4 qt. considered a decent size for a family of 5 or do you need the 6 qt.

Asked 7 years ago by Tootie11.

• A:Answer I have the 4 quart and while I only use a tiny amount of space for just me, I would suggest the 6 qt for a family of 5. It's not so much about capacity as it is about air space; food crisps better when the air can circulate around the food. That's why you need to take the tray out and give it a shake a few times while cooking. I think you'd find this easier to do with more food in the 6 qt. Either way, I can tell you it's worth it. My favorite kitchen gadget!

Q: QuestionI am thinking we could replace our small toaster oven from the 1970's with this, except for one thing. Has anyone tried baking a small batch of 3 or 4 chocolate chip cookies in it? What setting(s) & time would one use?

Asked 7 years ago by BuyCorrect1stTime.

• A:Answer Sorry that I cannot answer specifically your question about baking cookies, but I would expect you can do it but would just have to experiment a bit. As others have described, the air fryer is simply a compact convection oven. The small space heats and cooks faster than a conventional oven. Suggest using the temp of your toaster oven but ease back on the time (since hot air circulates). Re other issues of the Ninja - I have had mine for about a month: - it has been very quiet, compared to a few others I tested (Phillips, Gourmia) - no unusual odors from the unit - cleans easily with no damage, although I just hand wash - the Ninja does NOT have a handle that detaches from the inner pan, which I like - - the mechanisms I have seen seem cheap and unreliable. The Ninja feels solid and simple
