CONS

Ninja AF101 Air Fryer
Ninja BG500A Foodi XL Air Fryer
Yes

you will need to get a feel for how much faster this cooks so you don't overcook your food, but checking on the food is easy and just a peak away. It's all a matter of practice and of learning how to use that minimum amount of oil correctly so that the food does not come out so dry. you may want to get a few extra kitchen tools like silicon-tipped tongs to toss or flip your food and maybe a small 7" pan for baking if you like the idea of making this your primary oven too. This Ninja Air fryer May have Natural Rubber in it. Many users have mentioned a rubber smell after unpacking therefore if you are allergic to rubber, you may have to look for other options.

Yes

All of the baskets don't fit inside the storage. Takes up a lot of counter space. The air fryer is very noisy. There is not a built-in plug hole for a temperature probe in this particular model.
