CONS

Ninja FG551 Foodi Smart Air Fryer
Ninja AF101 Air Fryer
Yes

The temperature and settings can be confusing but there are plenty of online resources and cookbooks especially for this that can help. It’s not that easy to clean - the grill grate and baking pan is but the splash guard and the actual unit interior itself are not easy to clean. there may be cheaper, equal quality air fryers out there that might even offer more cooking space

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.
