I purchased this air fryer as a Christmas gift for my wife. We love ninja and have the Foodi 14 in 1. Its such a great air fry experience that this was a perfect compliment to make a full meal. It is compact and for a small amount of counter space we get two air fryers in one! We have used it aeveral times before New Years and its easier, fastr, and with better results, to use the oven. Heres an example. In our foodi 14-in-1, it takes 7 minutes at 360 degrees to make up some mozarella sticks, perfectly crispy. After preheating this up, it still took 14 minutes at 375 degrees to cook these through and they still werent crispy. This is with the lower tray, the higher position and using the racks. We have cooked four different things in this and all of them take forever to cook and still arent crispy. For all of the food we cooked, they were strangely undercooked and took 2 to 3 times longer than they should have. We are returning this and will try another. There are a number of reddit posts about this same issue. Poor design as it seems the air doesnt circulate properly around the food, since the heating element is at the back. This is my first Ninja product (of very many) that is a pass. Uts a great idea and exactly what we want, if it worked right.
