CONCLUSION

PROS

Elite Gourmet EAF4617 Electric Hot Air Fryer
Ninja DT251 Foodi Smart XL Air Fry Oven
Yes

• This device is big enough to cook for 5-6 people. It can also cook food in small quantities. • The basket is very spacious and can accommodate a whole chicken in it • Easy to use Interface with soft-touch buttons and ready-made menus for common food items. Although I prefer using the manual mode. Set the time and temperature and it will alert you with beeps when it is done. • The non-stick coating on the inner and outer basket makes it very easy to clean. And can be cleaned directly underwater. • Cooks smaller items uniformly, but larger food items may have to be flipped after half the interval. • Looks good and like an expensive product. • 1 Year warranty and comes with recipe book too. • It has a 1-YEAR USA-BASED customer support team that lets you buy with confidence.

CONS

Elite Gourmet EAF4617 Electric Hot Air Fryer
Ninja DT251 Foodi Smart XL Air Fry Oven
Yes

• The device does give out a smell when pre-heating, but that is normal with all heating devices. And the good thing is that it is just external and food smell/taste is not affected by that. • Huge footprint on the counter. • temp control is in "5's, dial hard to turn in general and even harder to turn back if you messed up how long you want it to cook

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.
