I love my air fryer. I want to upgrade because mine is LOUD. Thanks for this info.

i've own that model for a year now and i love it. we're just 2 people now and i use it almost daily. there is an excellent blog called the salted pepper that is all recipes made using ninja products - it is an excellent resource it for nothing else knowing what time and temp to use when cooking certain foods

here's the salted pepper - tons of great recipes and i've cooked lots of them. i've never made a fail following her directions she really puts the time in making a dish over and over again before putting it on the blog.

Thank you! The air fryer works fine for you? I am so sorry for so many questions. I have a 30 % off Kohl's code that expires tomorrow, so I am trying to make up my mind.

it works perfectly - it's just me and my husband so it's the ideal size for 2 people.

my only regret is not have 2 of them so i can cook meat and veggies at the same time.

i make steak, chicken, pork, salmon, etc. i even cook a whole spatchcock chicken. i grilled veggies all the time we don't eat potato but i do make onion rings. today i made duck breast in the grill.

Sherry,
I have not had a problem with the Ninja 5-1 air fryer. I’ve air fried French fries, chicken tenders, and onion rings in it. I’m usually using it to grill meat and therefore use my other air fryer to do veggies or sides at the same time.

HTH,
Kathy
