CONS

CHEFMAN Large Air Fryer Max
Ninja DT251 Foodi Smart XL Air Fry Oven
Yes

1. The bottom tray does NOT lock into the basket. 2. Why is this problem? Say you have some fries or chicken nuggets in the air fryer cooking and you want to dump them out into a bowl or plate. The whole bottom tray will fall out - and you try to stop it and you get burnt. 3. Double-check the dimensions of the air fryer, with the space that you want to put it into. 4. This unit also throws off a lot of heat. So if you're expecting to use it in the summer on a 90 plus degree day without heating up your kitchen - reset your expectations.

Yes

The outside gets real hot, just be careful not to place anything on top of the oven, it might melt, bad insulation. Cleaning the rear inside corners of this Ninja Foodi is a bit hard due to the design of the heating elements. However, you can use dawn spray which makes cleaning easy. Racks and Trays big for the kitchen sink. Racks and Trays are very big for the dishwasher. Air Fryer Basket TOO flimsy and has buckled after one use. Sheet Pan coating is TOO cheap. The coating has peeled off after one use.
