Ninja AF101 Air Fryer, 4 Quart Capacity

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 on their fryers the clean up is very easy. Next, I made sweet potato fries! Had a bag of frozen ones in the freezer and popped those babies in for 10 min. They were crispier than McDonald’s. I tried homemade fries but the procedure takes too long. You have to peel, slice, soak potatoes, dry them…I’m just ready to pop them in the fryer and eat! It has been nonstop air fryer cooking in this house! I hit youtube to get a few recipes and it’s been on ever since. What I like best about this fryer is it has a dehydrator feature and how fast it cooks. Frozen chicken wings? No problem! Throw them in the fryer for 10 minutes and they’re defrosted. I’ve cooked pizza, fries, wings, reheated food, fried zucchini, and tonight I baked a chocolate cake. Everything came out perfect! Next up is donuts! The only thing I don’t like about this fryer is 30 seconds after it finishes cooking it shuts off. I know this is a safety feature but I always have more items to cook. In 2 weeks, I have used my microwave twice, and that was to reheat coffee. Before I forget, I did cinnamon rolls too! I used the canned Pillsbury ones and it normally takes 20 min in the oven. In the Ninja? 8 minutes and that’s if you like them brown. I actually could have stopped it at 5 min and they would be perfect. My house smelled like a Cinnabon factory!😛 I have used every feature on this fryer except the dehydrator but I’ll be making beef jerky soon. Overall, I am VERY pleased! The best selling feature was the price & the size. The Ninja is much slimmer than some of the bulkier fryers and fits under my cabinet nicely. I’m also happy it only used 1500W unlike some of the larger fryers that burn 1800 which could kill your light bill. The outside of the fryer doesn’t get hot so you won’t have to worry about getting burned but do take caution when taking your food out. Is it loud? My exhaust fan on my stove is louder than the Ninja. The extension cord on it is long so you don’t have to worry about being limited on where you can place it. I think I’ve covered everything? This thing is THE BOMB! If you’re wondering what cookware you can use, just about anything you place in a microwave you can put in the Ninja. I went to the Dollar Tree and bought a few 7″ foil pans I use to reheat food & bake in. Also, grab you some silicone tongs while you’re there so you don’t scratch the surface of your fryer. This thing has been almost as good as a kid getting a new bike for Christmas. You will NOT be disappointed w/ this purchase. Happy & healthy cooking!

The Ninja AF161 Max XL Air Fryer is a game-changer in the kitchen! With its 5.5-quart capacity, it’s large enough to cook meals for the whole family, and the versatility is incredible—it cooks, crisps, roasts, bakes, reheats, and even dehydrates! Whether I’m air frying fries, roasting veggies, or baking desserts, this air fryer handles it all with ease.

The Max Crisp technology ensures that food comes out perfectly crispy without the need for excessive oil, making it a healthier alternative to traditional frying. The high gloss finish in grey adds a modern touch to my kitchen, and the design is sleek and compact enough to fit on my countertop without taking up too much space.

Cleanup is a breeze with the nonstick, dishwasher-safe basket, and the controls are intuitive and easy to use. The reheat and dehydrate functions are a great bonus, making it more than just an air fryer—it’s an all-in-one kitchen tool.

Overall, this air fryer is a must-have for anyone who wants fast, convenient, and healthy cooking options. Highly recommend!

This airfryer is simply amazing! The button panel is super simple to navigate and the food crisps super fast. Easy slide in and out for the compartment and it is an easy clean up. It makes quite a bit of noise so it’s not good for a midnight snack. Otherwise super fun and reliable.

We’ve had this for a year plus now and it works fine. The tray and insert are easy to clean and you can buy replacements cheap if you need them (we don’t yet). We use it two-to-four times a week, mostly to make fries (excellent) or other fried-type frozen foods. (I threw our deep fryer out – super unhealthy.) We’ve made other stuff – chicken, even steak, that are ok but better on a grill. It saves having to heat (and clean) the oven and a pan or sheet. Do pre-heat it – cooks better. And don’t try to cram too much in – the air needs to blow through/around the food. The AF101 makes plenty of fries for two-three big guys. And do wipe the top out every now and then – I wish the heating element was removable so it would be easier to clean.

Es una muy buena freidora muy fácil de usar y no es tan pesada, en cuádruple de espacio siento que le faltó ya que está más alta que ancha
