"We have had air fryers in the past we never ended up using because of ease of use issues or cleaning was a pain. This one gets used multiple times a day every single day."

"Two independent baskets mean you can cook different foods at different temps at the same time (no more waiting for round two of fries!)"
"Dual basket all the way. ... For example, tonight I made burgers; patties on one side, bacon on the other. Different times, different temps. ... All synched up by the Ninja to finish at the same time. ... I couldn't get by with one basket."
"I often cook two different things at different temps/times."

"honestly I hate it. ... Each basket is too small. ... No matter what you get, get a larger cooking area."
"I have the kind that has two smaller baskets and I'm so unimpressed with it. ... I very much regret not getting the toaster oven kind. I opted for this stupid dual basket kind. This thing is almost useless. ... I have the ninja dual basket air fryer and I'm so not impressed with it. ... What kind of air fryer do you have? Mine is a dual basket and I find it's literally the opposite of what you said lol ... I wonder if this has more to do with the model that people get. Mine is a dual basket. I regret not getting the toaster oven kind. ... I'm extremely unimpressed with the one I chose, a dual basket air fryer. So many feelings about it haha. ... Don't get a dual one with two small baskets."
"Baskets are small ... the quantity for those two things is small"

"My only complaint is that the paint on the handles came off within a couple months from general handling, the grease from food, and I assume the dishwasher. The handles now look like beige plastic handles instead of silver handles."

"Whenever you cook with both baskets it just doesn't have enough power for that so it cooks way worse ... so you end up just always using only 1 basket."
"Our previous, single-zone Ninja made food ... in significantly shorter time."
bullethole 1.0If you're absolutely going with it in your budget then [Ninja Foodie Dual Zone](https://www.amazon.com/Ninja-DZ401-Independent-Dehydrate-Family-Sized/dp/B096X9LGJ1) is an absolute beast. You can have two different baskets at different temperatures simultaneously. Really makes a difference.
Fafnr 1.0I have this one, and I'm really happy with it: https://ninjakitchen.dk/produkt/ninja-foodi-max-dual-zone-airfryer-med-smart-cook-system-af451eu-zidAF451EU?utm_source=google&utm_medium=cpc&utm_campaign=Ninja%20%7C%20PMax%20%7C%20Air%20fryers%20cross-network&gad_source=1&gad_campaignid=22010945990&gclid=CjwKCAjwtrXFBhBiEiwAEKen1_g1j14JMmlOVduKzzo9ENi4oOELUiOo5mmurFG9oNbd-8YuPuMYjxoCPBgQAvD_BwE I really like the integrated temp probe, where you just probe the meat and give it a target temp and off it goes. Don't get me wrong - you're not going to be making roast for 10 people in it, but a small piece of pork or beef works really well, and saves a lot of guess or an external probe.
latenightwithjb 1.0Ninja 10quart. It’s big but you can cook a serious amount of vegis. It goes on sale once a year and is $130 normally $250 https://a.co/d/5yFHNR5 I’ve got this and a little Insta 4qt so I’m able to cook a whole meal for 2 all at once. Recommend. I too started small but once I realized the benefits I rearranged to make room for it and now I eat veggies all the time
lucewa 1.0I got the Ninja Foodi MAX Dual Zone Air Fryer last year and honestly it's a game changer, I use it almost every day for all sorts of things. Anything that is supposed to go crispy in the oven is so much nicer in the air fryer, and it's great for cooking meat, fish and veggies as well. Super simple, quick and easy to use.
Pale-Criticism-7420 1.0Absolutely loving my Ninja Foodi Max Dual zone right now. It’s great
Yup! I usually put the meat in one basket and potatoes or fries in the other. The option to start one of the baskets while the other one stays on hold and starts later so that they both finish cooking at the same time is great as well. I also like the Max Crisp mode for things like frozen chicken nuggets for example. It’s not expensive either
PerniciousPlay 1.0For that budget you can toaster oven air fryer like the one in that picture or a [Ninja dz550](https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0B15Q3HCQ/) basket air fryer which is imo the best one out there.

staticattacks 1.0I have a Ninja, two technically one is a grill with crisper basket. It is usually pretty accurate according to air fryer specific directions. It's a dual basket so if I'm running both at once I need to increase the time/temp a little bit. I think any major brand should be ok, but what I'll say is that it's important to learn and get a feel for how your machine works. Sometimes you gotta burn something before you learn to adjust your directions. I know that's not what you want to hear but honestly you'll be glad when you figure it out.
Ah yeah that brings me back to my original point Sorry to hear, I do recommend a Ninja, they have quite a few models that suit different use needs. Be warned, it's easy to get sucked into the Ninja Shark ecosystem. I've got an indoor grill, dual basket air fryer, and now the Blendsense IQ system.
Idk what to tell you, both my Ninjas have grounded plugs
I have an IG651 7-in-1 Grill and DZ550 10qt Dual Basket Air Fryer
toby1jabroni 1.0I have a ninja dual zone max, and I use it pretty much every day. I don’t always need the second drawer but it can come in handy when I need it. Space might be a necessary consideration, it is pretty big. I don’t put mine away as it’s in constant use.
wintermute023 1.0Good question, we mostly cook for two nowadays as the kids are all grown and gone, but we regularly cook for 4 or 6 when they’re back or we have friends over. It’s pretty big so can fit a fair bit, we also have a double layer rack for doing multiple meats (chops, chicken, etc) at once, so we can fit 8 chicken thighs comfortably- with a Cajun rub they are amazing! It’s also plenty big enough for big stews, casseroles, soups, and makes great rice. My kids and their partners love anything with rice so normal for us to do rice for 6 in it. We have the OL550 and feels made for families, sometimes it seems a little too big for just the two of us.
