Ninja 4-Quart Air Fryer with Rapid Air Technology (AF101)

KillerAce: I despise the term, "air fryer." It doesn't fry. It's a tiny friggin convection oven. Anyway, my OVEN works great. I like the temperature control and timer. I wish it had a preheat option - I have to reset my timers after I let it heat. But it makes food quick and easy with simple cleanup.

Howardgirl72: We love this air fryer!! It reheats Golden Chick tenders to taste almost better than when fresh. I had been deep frying breaded meats and bought this to see if I could stop using all that oil and still get good taste. Yes, I can!! Clean up is easy. We have trusted the Ninja brand for many years and this machine seems to be of the same quality.

Suzant Shrestha: I will preface this with the only con of this product, it's pretty small. If you are cooking for a family or meal prepping, you will have to do multiple batches or get the bigger one. Sometimes I don't have enough room and I overstuff it and it just doesn't cook super well- but that's on me not the product.

Everything else is great, heats up super quick, easy to clean, easy to figure out. Makes killer fries for sure.

Eva M. Thompson: Traditional cook here. I had asked friends and relatives a few years ago how they liked using the air fryers they'd bought, and the answers were about 50-50 good/bad. Too big, too heavy, rather use an oven, and so on. So I held off. Then I decided I should try to learn something new in the kitchen, and found this little Ninja for such a good price that if I found I didn't like it I hadn't lost much. The only thing I'm sorry about is that I waited so long to buy one. This thing makes the BEST fried chicken! That was the first thing I tried, and it was enough to convince me that if I didn't use it for anything else it was worth it for the chicken! But it's versatile way past just chicken. I'm still learning, adapting my traditional way of cooking things to using the air fryer to make them. Roasted brussels sprouts, baked sweet potatoes, rolls; all good. Oh, and barbeque! Anything you can put barbeque sauce on is going to get a really good cooked-in flavor. There was a little cookbook included in the purchase, and I'll use it to learn from, but looking forward to experimenting and finding what all I can do with this terrific little appliance. It's the right size for two people, maybe...

C. Martin: Been having this fryer for 2 weeks now and it has NOT rested yet. I LOVE IT & wonder how I've gone this long w/out one. Before I start bragging on this thing, I am by no way endorsed by Ninja or getting paid by them. I've owned a few Ninja products blenders and still have one that's over 10 years old. They make quality machines. This fryer is a life & time saver...especially if you're a lazy cook. I have been researching air fryers for the past few months and nothing comes close to the Ninja. The basket size isn't the large 5+ quart capacity like the bigger fryers, (Ninja is only 4qt), but this thing cooks so fast you won't miss the extra 1 qt. It comes w/ a crisper that works perfectly, a recipe book and a multi-layer rack. The first night I had it I made wings and I tell you that I will NEVER buy fried chicken again!!! Yes, they were that crispy and tasted much better. I bought the Louisiana fried chicken flour from Walmart, battered the wings, spritzed w/ a little olive oil and had fried chicken in 10 minutes. No greasy mess, no 3rd degree burns from hot oil, and your house doesn't smell like a chicken joint for 4 days afterward. Because the Ninja uses a ceramic coating...
