Alternative_Hippo720 1.0Yeah, it has 13 presets like air fry, toast, bake, pizza, slow cook, dehydrate, etc. Super convenient, but you can also tweak the settings if you want more control.
amsman03 1.0We have owned the first version of this for at least 3 years now... maybe longer. We originally bought it for our Motorhome, thinking the space saver would be great, and it was. After using it for a while, we brought it into the house and use it almost daily now, and just take it out to the MH when we travel. PS...... when we bought new appliances last year we got an oven witha built-in air fryer, and after one or two uses, we just go back to this guy.....it's a great appliance and well worth the $
ChefJym 1.0Since we got our Ninja 4qt air fryer (AF101), we hardly ever use the microwave. Maybe to reheat a cup of tea or melt butter. **Tiny Kitchen small appliance Hierarchy:** Air Fryer (a good one) Microwave (big enough for popcorn, like a 0.8cu ft 800w) Keurig K-Mini Single Serve 2 slice toaster with bagel setting 4qt Instant Pot (like a duo plus 9-in1) Countertop Blender
It is the most popular small appliance in my house. Ninja AF101. Not just ninja... ninja AF.
freespiritedqueer 1.0If you’re cooking small meals, a single basket like the Ninja AF101 or Instant Vortex does the job well. Duals are great for variety but take more space. Go Ninja if you want durability, Instant if you want presets and ease.
try ninja af101. good for first timers like yours
GlamourousFireworks 1.0Buying a ninja has been life changing for cleaning. Takes me minutes rather than scrubbing and soaking for ages only for it to still look rank! I also like the extra layers on the metal wire rack things!
Gurlie_J_Girl 1.0Ninja just introduced this face-lift version. I have the original, prior model, and as others have stated, I use this constantly without failure. Very happy purchase

Kryzec 1.0Buy one that is easy to clean. I just bought a ninja af101 and it's much better than the best buy airfryer i had many years ago just due to how much of a pita it was to clean that cheap one. I don't think 6 qt minimum is necessary but to each their own.
Nameless_Ghoul1891 1.0I just got this one for Christmas and same with me. Have not touched the oven since.

Ok-Hour-5599 1.0We just got married and both of us are working. We’re trying to eat healthy but don’t have a lot of time. We love food, so we want an air fryer that’s easy to use and doesn’t need much cleaning. Budget is not a problem. We’re looking at Ninja, Breville, or Philips, but if there’s a better brand, we’re open to it too. Got the [Ninja AF101](https://horsezeal.com/ninja-af101-air-fryer-review/), and it works like a charm, great for two-person meals and takes barely any effort to clean up, perfect for busy couples like us.
PoweredByPlants123 1.0I’ve got the [Ninja AF101](https://amzn.to/41Rfmgj), and I can't imagine life without it. I use it almost daily, it cooks everything super fast and crispy without needing much oil. I love making crispy chicken tenders in it. Plus, it's super easy to clean, which is a huge bonus. Highly recommend if you're looking for a reliable air fryer!
