Ninja - Smart Dual Heat Air Fry Oven (SP351 Series)

Ive never had a problem and I always use both baskets at once.

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.

Maybe mine is defective (and was out of the box) but it absolutely does not reach the desired temperature if I use both.

Yes this is my only issue. When I first got it I was excited to throw like frozen fries in one side and nuggets in the other, but then when I used my Normal settings neither was even close to done. I don't use both at the same time ever anymore.

I love my ninja air fryer. They don't make that model anymore.It is a dual, but it has one drawer with a divider. So you can do two things at one time or take the divider out.And cook one big thing. Use it almost daily.

Also have the exact one in the picture. Had it a few months and could be happier with it. Thought it might be difficult to clean as well but it's surprisingly easy.

I make almost everything in my Ninja Dual air fryer with great results. It sounds like you may be over cooking your food and that's why it's dry.

I have the ninja dual. There isn't any difference. It even has a sync function so different foods can be finished at the same time.

I didn't buy it. Had a Kmart one which had teflon that peeled off into my fish when I cooked it (like peeled off the metal and onto the fish skin) ugh talk about eating forever chemicals! Replaced with a Ninja dual one which is at least looks and feels like it was made in a factory run by people with some self respect (coating appears solid and not like it was sprayed on with a can of spray paint). Still thinking about going all SS though if a good option turns up. The UB looks a bit odd, I worry the rotating mechanism could be a failure point and sometimes I really don't want things to rotate and fall over (like cooking a delicate slab of fish).

A combo unit, like [13-in-1 Ninja appliance air fries, sears, bakes with 75% less fat than deep frying, fast and versatile healthy cooking](https://a.co/d/gWhBCZL). If you can only have two, I recommend something like this and a microwave. If only one, honestly I think this is more versatile than a microwave and makes better food in general. This is the model my parents have, not sure if there is something else out there more suited to your needs but I've done a lot of different meals in this thing (toasting, reheating, searing, oven, air frying, etc) and to my knowledge it truly does work well at the different cooking types it claims (again have tested/tried everything, just the more normal stuff and have enjoyed using it). The benefit of this particular one is that it has a pivot stand, so you can fold it up out of the way when not in use to reclaim some of your counter space. My dad likes to leave it up and I like to leave it down cuz I constantly have to clear clutter away to fold it down. I've compared making roasted vegetables in the oven and in this machine and I tend to prefer this machine over the oven. Plus if you're cooking for only one or two, the size is about right for it and not too hard to clean (unlike having to try to clean the whole glass stove stop, not hard just a lot more surface area). I don't mean for this to sound like an ad, like I said this is the one I have and I like it. There are likely other versions of this same style (a combo unit designed to be multiple machines in one). Likely a good version of each machine would perform better in its specific category, but a combo unit like this achieves I think 90% of the same result or sometimes better in rare cases, but has the benefit of less room being taken up since it's one machine, and it can be folded up for more counter space. When I get my own place, I am planning to either get myself this one, or look at what is available and try to find something even better if it's an option, and won't worry about other appliances until I actually need them (cuz this does pretty well by itself).

My opinion:- Cook two different things/temps at once! I've got a ninja dual, and love it, used at least every other day if not daily

The third one in the list, the Ninja Air Fry Oven, was terrible for me. So much grease would get everywhere even when using the drip pan. I went to the first one in the list, the bucket style Ninja, and it's so much better.

I actually just got a separate thermometer so I'm not sure yet but the separate one actually tells you the temperature. The ninja one you just set it to rare, medium,ect and I find it over cooks. I'd rather just see the actual temperature.

Yup, I have the same one. I use it every day and it is extremely easy to clean. However I dont use the inserts that came with it. Those werent the easiest to clean. I use a grill rack instead. So Im just cleaning the basket which is teflon coated and the grill rack which is stainless steel. It cooks really quick and unless youre flipping something its set it and forget it.

If you're in North America, there are air fryers that purport to run multiple baskets at the same time (ie: Ninja Dual). Our home power supply will not run both baskets at the same time at full heat; the user's guide says you have to allow almost double the time if you want to use both baskets at once as the temperature won't reach full heat. Evidently they do work at full speed in the UK. That being said... I also have a Ninja Foodi multicooker that does the whole slow cooker/pressure cooker/ air fryer thing in one unit. I've had four or five air fryers and that's the one I've used the most because the multiple functions are useful for me. For just a dedicated air fryer, make sure it has enough physical space to cook the amount and kind of food you want. For example, french fries are best cooked in one layer. Many air fryers are not sized to cook enough fries to feed four people. Whichever air fryer you choose, you'll need to peek in and toss/shake/shift your food two or three times during the cooking to get everything to cook evenly, so ensure it's a convenient size, weight etc.

If you tell it to have 375 in one side and 350 in the other they'll actually be about 335 and 310. It can't output enough heat.

I have both and use them for different things. Messy foods like chicken, etc go in the basket fryer (Ninja Dual) but things I prefer to "bake" or make larger quantities of, go in the oven; my model has a basket tray which allows for good air circulation.

My first attempt yes I just did what I would have done if they were alone. Tried later adding time and found it really cumbersome to get right. It just doesn't get nearly as hot when splitting between both baskets

I bought a dual-fryer Ninja just because I didn't know any better. Wish I had a single basket now.
