Ninja - Foodi Double Stack Oven Air Fryer with Thermometer (DCT451)

the question is what ypi are after,. most air fryers do work and from my experience mechanicals have a tendency to do better in certain things, here are a few I have, I have at least 4 brands in my home and would be doing a test soon of them: [Philips](https://s.shopee.ph/6psbzlCuSe): probably easiest to use in the mechanical setting, it has a button to remove the tray so you wont get burned, takes a abit of time to preheat, i alwatys wait 5 minutes para umabot ng temp, everything is manual, can handle a lot of things but due to it being manual, you have to do the calculations yourself. very easy to clean, good enough size that you can place anything inside, temp is adequate. trays easily removed. all in all, this one has lasted the longest. [Instant pot](https://s.shopee.ph/1qTw2Y1H7v): if you want something to remove the guesses, this is the one, daming kayang gawin, ive done sundried tomatoes, meals, whole chicken, this thing will tell you when preheating is done, it will tell you to switch the chicken upside down, it will tell you halos lahat, timer is good, malakas yn tunog to tell you you have to do this or that. ito naman cons nya, number 1, yn tray you need to remove it directly, di tulad ng iba. ano con is that rubber yn sa gilid nya pero parang tunog nagscratch pagninilgay mo pero overall its a master of all. [midea](https://s.shopee.ph/5q04noOHtg): mechanical as well quite cute, the temp controls are just dials, handles well, first time used had plastic smell, removed aftgter 2 times use, easy cleaning not digital, so you need to wait for preheating, i do 5 minutes, descent size not great [ninja foodi](https://s.shopee.ph/7V8In0Rlyt): probably the one one that can do grilling properly but dang it is expensive, lots of removable parts and good quality, takes a bit os space though, does grilling and airfrying well pero not that much sa iba, expensive affiliate link posted with pictures of the units. i have more air fryers at home. https://preview.redd.it/7y8mbik0g4zf1.png?width=3099&format=png&auto=webp&s=981d61c6389d836deddc9c2b09e6a78c9134175c

Never had an air fryer before last fall. I bought the Ninja double oven as it was on for half price and my friend loves hers. I don't make super greasy food though, and clean up is a breeze. Quick wipe of the oven and door and Dawn power wash for the basket and catch tray though dish soap is probably fine too. Works great for me.

That's what I'm looking at, same model but bigger. How long have you had it? Do you like it? I also have ninja foodie with air fryer function and I am assuming the basket for air fryer is also non stick and we have used it forever with birds around and it was fine... but that thing is so bulky and sits in the cabinet below the counter, I want to keep keep one on the counter....I'm still nervous!

I have a ninja foodie so it's an air fryer, slow cooker, pressure cooker, and a few other things in one. Or at least it was till I set one of the lids on fire but that's another story. I say go for it. Bonus- I can put it all in the dishwasher.

I have a Ninja foodi and a Ninja toaster style air fryer. I love the Foodi for home fries and baking small cakes and as a rice cooker. I use it nearly daily. We got the toaster style one for toasting bread, for roasting vegetables, and baking small pizzas. Like every appliance, you have to consider your space and what you cook. For us, it's been great.

Ninja foodie has all these options plus air fryer in case someone wants all in one to save counter space🙂. I do prefer air fryer to oven though, food just tastes better from air fryer😋

Yeah they are brilliant and a much better option than an air fryer imo

Ninja foodie. It is an air fryer, pressure cooker, it can bake and work like a stove top. With it you don't need another appliance

The air fryer is not replacing my microwave, but it makes cooking so much easier. And cleaning it is no biggie since i have a dishwasher. The one i have is the Ninja foodie which has a removable bowl. Lately i microwave my frozen rice and air fry my frozen and already cooked chicken that I previously made. It's so darn good.

We have a Ninja Foodie - it bakes, toasts, broils, air-fries...

I have the Ninja Foodie oven one. I figured out some liners that solved the cleanup issue, and it's my go to for cooking a big batch of chicken breasts.

Yeah this is the same reason I don't really use my Foodi. It's also very loud whereas my Instant Pot (I happen to have 3) are quiet as a mouse. For pressure cooking alone the Instant Pot brand beats Ninja out imo. I prefer the basic IP models, as they are really good at what they do, alas the Ninja does more. I like the air crisp option on my Foodi but I'm not sure that alone is worth it. Bacon and burgers are really good in it after pressure cooking but chicken is gross on that one I learned. Ninja just doesn't excel to me in pressure cooking as it sometimes doesn't come to pressure at all. I'm actually trying to sell mine after only using it a few times.

Ninja foodi is my holy grail. I've had it for 5 years. I do everything with it. I couldn't recommend a better one. Super plus is you can remove the cooking basket and wash it. It's not connected to plastic. Easy to clean. Lots of function. Pressure cooking, baking, dehydrating, slow cooker, air fryer. List goes on.

Ninja foodi, you get an air fryer, pressure cooker, slow cooker, we use ours a lot. You can make soups, hot dishes, bake, broil, pressure cook. Can cook almost anything in it.

Love my Nina foodi, aside from the size of it

Get the ninja foodie. I live alone and it's hands down the best thing in my kitchen. Cooks two different foods at different times and temperatures and finishes cooking at the same time. Would never go back to single cooking zone air fryer

I bought a used Ninja Foodie off of Offer Up and was surprised that I find myself using all of the functions, especially the air fryer and pressure cooker. What great about he slow cooker is you can first saute stuff in the same pan/bowl that you will slow cook in. If you are in a rush you can pressure cook instead and everything comes out great.

I don't have this one but I have a Ninja foodie that does air frying, and the fan is pretty loud. P.s. how was the pool party 🤣

I've had my Ninja Foodi for 4 years. Use it daily and it's still fine.

I have the Ninja 12-in-one. I use the regular oven when whatever I'm cooking is too big for the ninja.

I bought a Ninja Foodi on sale for $189 and it lasted 4 years until the lights wouldn't come on in it anymore. It still fried and toasted at least 2 times a day everyday though. So we bought the same model again since the lights are not replaceable. Not technically BIFL, but we think it is worth every penny and inch of counterspace it takes up.
