CONS

Ninja FG551H Foodi Smart XL Air Fryer
Ninja DT251 Foodi Smart XL Air Fry Oven
Yes

There may be cheaper, equal quality air fryers out there that might even offer more cooking space. 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. Big, heavy, and needs lots of space to store away.

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.
