Ninja Foodi MAX 9.5L Dual Zone Air Fryer - AF400UK

Very happy with this so far. Occasionally a little temperamental, but eventually rights itself. Such a convenient, low mess, healthy bit of kit. Not too large or ugly on my counter. It cooks some things better than others (still prefer baked potatoes and fresh potato roasties done in an oven and bacon under a grill or on the hob), but it’s great for frozen stuff and meat in general. The pigs in blankets, full duck, steaks etc. were tender & tasty, but the star was an outdoor bred pork loin joint - it was simply gorgeous - moist, tasty and succulent! Would definitely recommend thus and am happy to have it in my kitchen!

The best thing about this product is that it pays for itself through energy savings Since getting this Ninja my deep fat fryer is now obsolete, my grill is almost obsolete and my oven hasn't been used since. This product cooks great chips but one does have to learn a little first. When cooking chips it's critical that one folows the instructions and washes the potato starch out before air frying them otherwise they will burn. Next one needs to work out the times and temperatures for different potato varieties as cooking times do vary between the different types. Once one has a good idea of the cooking times and temperatures chips are quickly produced in the air fryer. Although the air fryer works well there are the other options available; Roast, Bake, Dehydrate, Max Crisp and reheat. As the saying goes, "practice makes perfect" and it certainly applies to this Ninja. One has fun messing with this product as one tries to find the best and most successful way to cook food. Roasting duck breasts is a typical example. I have cooked them with the Roast option but I have found that they cook best by giving them 8 minutes on Roast followed by six minutes on Max crisp to get the skin well cooked and crispy. As my images show, this "compact cooker" roasts some great chicken quarters. The same applies with the chicken as it does the duck, partially roast the chicken and finish off using the max crisp setting which operates at 240c and that is 10c higher than domestic ovens so it cooks and crisps skin perfectly and quickly. I have used this Ninja for toasting garlic bread slices and it does it much quicker and much better than my Solarplus grill does so that is something exceptional. As this Ninja has much smaller cavities than a domestic oven it can rapidly heat up, that is how it works. When cooking there is no need to preheat the Ninja as the cavities reach their temperatures in a matter of a small few seconds and that is where the energy savings come into play. By not having to pay to preheat a large cavity domestic oven ones uses much less energy thus one isn't paying the 30p+ per kWh for an element that requires a 3.6+kWh input. If one has a cheap cooker then it's cheap for a reason... it needs more energy thus it would probably use a good kWh just to preheat the oven so one can easily be paying 40p to 50p just to warm the oven up. A more expensive cooker, like mine, can have triple glazing in the oven doors thus they are much more enrgy efficient and save money when comared to cheaper cookers. As the Ninja only has to heat up a small space the food is cooking almost immediately and it does cook evenly. I did mention duck, chicken and garlic bread but what about roasting coffee beans? I did think about it and after doing a little reading online I tried it. I don't advise using this Ninja for roasting coff beans as it does become "expensive". Many people claim that one can get a "dark roast" in six to eight minutes, with others claiming it takes around 15 minutes. Well, I don't believe any of them have actually tried it as even after a good 1/2 hour the beans were only light roasted. To get a dark roast will tale close to one hour at the highest temperature so that becomes costly for a small amount of coffe bean. One can invest in a domestic coffee bean roaster but personally I do prefer to do it the traditional way, which is much more cost effective. One simply puts the beans into a pan (frying pans are good for this) or a traditional roasting pan that imported. Next, one simply heats the pan on a high heat hob or gas burner for a few minutes. Whilst the beans are roasting one simply stirs them around from time to time. A light roast, like what the Ninja produced, can be obtianed in only two to three minutes with a dark raost taking around five mionutes. What the Ninja produced in 1/2 hour would have taken me around 10 minutes and I would have got two small batches of dark roast for my espressos. So, this Ninja is excellent for cooking almost anything but there will be the exception such as my fresh green bean coffee.It is so easy to keep clean so that is a very good bonus One thing I did note from some negative reviews is that some reviewers gave negative ratings and claimed the product is fauly because "lots of steam" was coming out. Well, I can honestly say that is not the case. The problem is not with the Ninja but is with the user. During my second use of this I seen some steam coming out and instantly worked it out that the pan hadn't been insertred correctly. When using the Ninja it is important to insert the pans flush so that they are firmply sealed with the machione otherwise steam will escape thus cooking will be uneven and will take longer. As soon as I seen the steam I simply pulled pan number one out a bit and reinserted it thus no more steam. Another issue with those that cook with incorrectly positioned pans is that apart fromcosting more to cook the food and not cooking the food well... it will dry the food.The steam from the cooking food is part of the cooking process and helps keep the food moist but losing the water will mean the food, especially meats, will go dry. Overall I am impressed with my Ninja and I should have bought one much sooner than I did as it is saving me money, it is saving me a lot of time and most importantly it produces some excellently cooked food. One day I will risk it and try to make some jam in it and maybe even dehydrate some fruits. If successful thenit will mean my dehydrater will become obsolete aling with my deep fat fryer. I am recommending this product as it is made to a high quality standard, it works very well and with the energy and cost savings this is very good value.

Purchase the Ninja air fryer as a replacement for the Moncook 9L that we have had for a couple of years. Glad we did because it’s amazing. So easy to use and the cooking speed and heat is way better than the Moncook. People have recommended Ninja to us but I could see how much better it could be. But it is. Even the cleaning and quality of the none stick feels much better. Bought in the Black Friday deals so got it at a reduced bargain price but to be honest I’d pay full price as its quality item. There is an upgrade with a digital adjustable settings rather than the turn knob but the knob is so smooth I’m not bothered. Digital display is clean and you can adjust the temperature and cooking time on top of the preset settings. I would highly recommend the Ninja especially the Dual Max as it’s got huge capacity.

Got this air fryer to replace a cheaper one we had used and abused (single bigger drawer one) which still worked but was definitely showing signs of heavy usage! This model has a bigger overall size but fits perfectly where our old one was I picked this model as it was on sale but mainly because it has 2 separate cooking zomes and although they are smaller than our old models massive single zone they actually work better as you have many more options to cook with allowing different things cooking at different times and temperatures and setting them to finish at the same time or just using both zones for the same type of food or occasions when you use just one smaller zone on its own! This model does seem to cook faster than our old one (maybe to do with smaller zones) and is very easy to clean and the times and temperatures are much easier to set as they are digital and our old one was dials for both temperature and time Only thing I could put as a downside is this one does seem to be quite a bit louder than our old one but not enough to knock off a star All in all a great air fryer that I would highly recommend

Brilliant air fryer. Roasted a large chicken with room to spare and it was perfect. Used the large drawer space by removing the divider. The divider separates the cooking areas so it’s very versatile. Excellent instructions and recipes. Very efficient cooks perfectly in less time than a conventional oven. The quality is great and it’s quite light to move on the work surface.

Overall very impressive. It does Baked Potatoesd the way I love them (BAKE 160 1.5 hours) and does boiled eggs (AIR FRYER 150 11 minutes). But the controls are fiddly and not well thought out, additionally if you get a bit gung ho with pressing the GO BUTTON it seems to be able to slip into a different mode and time. When it goes great - before it goes rubbish

Excellent air fryer. Using it for months now and get perfect results

I am absolutely blown away by the Ninja XXXL Air Fryer! This appliance has completely transformed the way I cook at home. The extra-large capacity is a game-changer - it easily fits family-sized portions, so I can cook everything in one go without juggling batches. Perfect for busy weeknights or when we have guests over. The cooking performance is outstanding. Everything comes out crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, whether it’s fries, chicken, salmon, or even roasted veggies. The air circulation is so powerful and even that food cooks faster and more consistently than in my oven, and with far less oil. What I really love is the versatility - it’s not just an air fryer. I use it for baking, roasting, reheating leftovers, and even dehydrating snacks. It’s like having multiple appliances in one, saving me counter space and money. Cleanup is a breeze too. The nonstick basket and crisper plate slide right out and wash up quickly, either by hand or in the dishwasher. Overall, the Ninja XXXL Air Fryer has exceeded my expectations. It’s efficient, easy to use, and delivers incredible results every single time. I honestly can’t imagine my kitchen without it now. If you’re looking for a reliable, high-capacity air fryer that truly delivers on its promises, this is the one to get!

Air fryer works perfectly well and will recommend it for anyone and also thanks to the seller for the fast delivery
