Customer Ratings & Reviews

Great product,I love using my airfyer, very convenient with separate trays

Over all pretty good, it’s a little small if you want to only use on baskets at a time but when using both its excels.

Great and easy to use love it and good taste amazing and looks nice

It works super well I love it I recommend it you will not regret it

Works great individually and together split base helps alot

To start off with I had the best customer service that I’ve had in many years there at Best Buy. They helped me pick the product that would best fit my situation. I would and will recommend them to anyone.

Excellent item definitely recommend this product.mucho bueno

Does exactly what it says. Really like the built-in meat thermometer!

This is my third air fryer. The ninja is the best ever.

I love the double baskets and cooking at two different temps is any plus.Baskets are a little small.

Purchasing Ninja, saved my time a lot because I prepared my lunch and dinner, and usually took a lot of my time.

Perfect airfryer to cook two different foods at the same time. Can also match cook. The plates are better then previous.

Worked well for us. The sound level is spightly on the higher side. However the benefit of oil-less cooking more than makes up for it. Worth the deal.

It works the way they say in the YouTube videos. It does take less time than conventional oven. So be careful when cooking. I even made flan in the air fryer.

Good product will recommend it to anyone works really good

This thing is awesome. Has so many features and looks clean in the kitchen. Definitely recommend!

Awesome. Cooks great I have no complaints. Great price with the member discount. Nothing sticks. Makes hot wings perfect

I love this thing so much!! Use it everyday multiple times a day! Im still getting cookiing times down though. Some utems cook faster than suggested times.

Overall I’m very happy with my this air fryer. I like not having to wait 5 minutes to preheat and although it takes a little longer to cook when using both sides at the same time it’s not that much longer.

How is it that Air Fryer products and technology continue to advance the state of the art? Here is an excellent example of what’s new. I have long been a fan of and recommended “bucket” or basket style air fryers. The other popular style, countertop air fryers, typically with glass fronts and an open cavity, easily become filthy. An upscale countertop oven, they are a more modern version of a toaster oven. The self-contained “bucket” design that I prefer places the heating element at the top, above an enclosed bucket at the bottom of which is, typically, a crisping rack The rack also allow air flow all around the food. All liquids, splatters and debris are contained within the “bucket”. The bucket and rack are non-stick coated and easily cleaned by hand or in a dishwasher. What’s new with this Ninja Foodi model? The major upgrade to this double-basket model is a feature not seen before. This DZ550 is a dual basket 10-qt design with something extra. The left bucket has a helper, a temperature probe on a wire. Use the probe to alert and automatically shut down the DZ550 when the probe’s set point is reached. How is this different from other models? It’s the “Foodi Smart Thermometer” probe! An entire six-pound chicken with probe fits in the left basket and may be cooked on the roast setting. Another up to six-pound chicken may also be simultaneously cooked in the right side bucket, say, on the AirFry setting, then the unit may me be set so the food in both sides can finish at the same time. That’s genuine convenience any way you slice it. • The Ninja XL air fryer with two independent cooking baskets tips the scales at about 20 pounds. • With 1690 Watts of available power, it is expected to cook whatever is in one or both baskets as quickly as possible, all the while consuming less energy than a conventional oven. Temperature settings range from 105º - 450ºF. **WHAT’S IN THE BOX** • Ninja Foodi 6-in-1 10-qt. XL 2-Basket Air Fryer • Dual 5-qt Cooking Baskets • Nonstick Crisper Plates • Foodi Smart Thermometer • Documentation **THE SETUP** READ everything, then re-read everything. There is much to learn and apply in order to experience a comfort level with repeatable successful outcomes. A probe that connects to a port at the left front above the left bucket is the only obvious visual difference between this model and others with a similar look. Using the DZ550 in AirFryer mode, there is no easy way to determine the doneness of meat, fish or poultry. I use the tried and true method, which is to open the bucket and insert an instant-read thermometer in a few spots. With practice, I have become adept at estimating the correct cook time of my fan favorite whole chicken preparations. But now, the probe changes everything and takes the majority of guesswork from the equation. For a six-pound chicken, as an example, I set the temperature to an internal doneness of 160º, not the recommended 165º, “with the probe inserted horizontally into the thickest part of the breast, parallel to, but not touching, the bone. Make sure the top reaches the center of the thickest part of the breast and doesn’t go all the way through the breast into the cavity.” I don’t like dried out, overcooked chicken breast. Press the button and let it happen. At the same time, another food, perhaps AirFried wedge potatoes that everyone here loves, can be set so that both buckets are done at the same time. Built-in intelligence rockets the DZ550 to a higher performance level with new options not available on previous air fryers. Ninja calls it the Smart Cook System. Versatility is the name of the game. Use the DZ550 with or without the probe, with or without both “zones” (buckets), i.e., DualZone Technology, with or without Match Cook. Functions include Air Fry, Bake, Roast, Air Broil, Reheat and Dehydrate. The provided Quick Start Guide includes instructions and many recipes. After hand washing both baskets and crisper trays, I set them back in place, set the operation to Roast, the temperature to 400º, and set the timer for 12 minutes. This was to burn off any debris or oils coating. And now, it’s time to . . . **PUT IT TO THE TEST** Always the first thing I make in an air fryer, I prepped an over six-pound chicken. Seasoned well and with the probe inserted as instructed, I cut a few russet potatoes into wedges and soaked them in ice water for 30 minutes. Rinsed, then pat-dried, I tossed them in a large prep bucket with salt, pepper, garlic powder, smoky paprika and Lebanese Za’atar. Next, set so the chicken and fries would be ready at about the same time, with the push of a button, the cooking began. Sure smelled great! Practice, practice, practice, and more practice. Once again, family and friends are enjoying the ever-expanding repertoire of wonderful dishes made with my most recent AirFryer. I can see daylight ahead! Pretty soon, everyone here will enjoy this versatility of deliciousness. **CONCLUSION** This Ninja Foodi 6-in-1 10-qt. XL 2-Basket Air Fryer with DualZone Technology & Smart Cook System is a big hit here. The product appears to be durable and well-built. Yes, it takes some dedicated, uninterrupted study of manuals to become comfortable with the different procedures. It has been absolutely worth the time AND effort. **WARRANTY** Ninja DZ550 comes with the manufacturer’s one year parts and labor warranty.
