First, I enjoy your thorough reviews and recipes, and that is the reason I subscribed to your channel. Secondly, I bought this toaster oven a few weeks ago and I have used it to cook bacon, pan sausage, biscuits, toast, frozen fries, salmon fillets, and tater tots, all successfully. I have had to adjust some cooking times & temps, a bit, but I love it. Also, I want to mention that the light automatically turns on at 30 seconds before the timer stops, which is a nice feature, as well. Thanks, again, for your thorough, real, and funny reviews! Looking forward to the next…..
Thank you so much for subscribing and watching the video. Really appreciate you taking the time to comment !! Cheers ! Marc
You don't use the pan under the air fryer rack when air frying fries. You only use the pan if you are cooking fatty, oily, or marinated ingredients. Secondly, you are supposed to turn the basket 180° halfway through cooking cycle for even browning and crispiness. It's says both of those things right in the manual. Not trying to be mean, but you really should thoroughly read the instructions before reviewing a product. I use my Ninja SP101 all the time and don't burn things like you did. I cook everything from filet mignon to frozen jalapeno poppers in mine and they come out perfect every time.
Great insight. Thanks !! Marc
Thanks for the comment so I know not to even watch this buffoons review.
Nice job The Average Kitchen!! I really needed the dimensions from a true user instead of marketing fluff. I got the info. I needed along with a thorough review. Most appreciative!
Glad we could help! Thanks for watching! - J
Jamie & Marc,
I LOVE your reviews! You are thorough and show how a family would use an item in real life situations!!!
Thank you for reminding me to say "pogo," instead of "corn dog" when my travels takes me back to my "adopted" home, Canada!!!🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦🍁🍁🍁
Haha awesome ! Thanks for the ongoing support and kindness!! We really appreciate it. Marc
i love the super detailed review on trying the different functions per food. I hope you also includes how to clean the exterior and interior of the machine.
Great comment ! We will def do a future video on cleaning and maintenance! Thanks for watching. Marc
Excellent informative video review of the Ninga Foodi Digital Air Fry Oven! Loved your junior taste testers!
Thanks ! Me too ! Marc
Thanks! Just bought the newest model. Your video is very helpful!
Thanks for the great comment! - J
Great video. The fold up feature almost persuaded me to buy one. But then the small height and seemingly lack of uniform cooking dissuaded me. My journey will continue. Big thank you.
Glad we could help. Thanks for watching! - J
finally a Great video. thank you. :) oh i mean Great compared to other ninja ones i've watched while trying to figure out my new ninja. you've answered all my questions. :)
Thank you very much for the kind words !!! Marc
Thank you. Exactly what I want to know of this air fryer.
Thanks for watching! - J
Salsa BEFORE you cook? That's crazy talk. LOL
THANK you for all these awesome reviews. I have so many Ninja appliances in my kitchen, but probably only use half of their functions. After watching your videos, I feel inspired! Don't stop, keep 'em comin'! :)
Hahaha thanks so much !!! Marc
You are a natural for on air presentations ;) Great video, great attitude & I bought the Ninja ....
Wow thanks so much for the fantastic comment!! Hope you enjoy it as much as I do ! Cheers. Marc
Great review, looks an sounds like it will be perfect for me. as my job is putting me in a hotel for 3 months in a basic room. This will be so much better then just micro food and way cheaper then going out to eat. thanks a bunch
Awesome. Let us know how you like it. Marc
Thanks for the great review, I just purchased one myself. And I made wings for the first time last night and surprisingly It did not leave a mess. I used 1 tablespoon of avocado oil So all the seasonings would stick.
Awesome. We appreciate the comment ! Marc
Good review. Thanks
Thank you ! Marc
great explanation and honest
Thanks for watching! - J
Really cool video, regards from Montreal! :)
Merci!! Really appreciate the comment ! Marc
I just got one of these for Christmas. I already use my toaster/convection oven daily, just wanted an air fryer. How is it cooking food that you prepare yourself as in fresh? Thanks for the video!
Hey, thanks for watching. Works well. Marc
Really great review! Definitely helped me in deciding on an air fryer.
Thanks so much for the feedback ! Marc
So do these oven/air fryers have longer air fry cook times than the boxy standalone ones air fryers? I have a Gourmia 6qt standalone air fryer and I can cook a large basket full of fries in like 14 minutes.
That’s a great question that I honestly cannot answer. Depends on the type of fries, frozen vs hand cut. Depends on how crispy you like your fries etc. thanks for watching. Cheers. Marc
Great demonstration of The Ninga Foodi.
Any ideas on how to clean this thing?
I’ve used mine a few times and would like to clean it before it’s gets filthy.
I didn’t use this one for very long so never had to “deep” clean it. Marc
I'm not sure whether you got inconsistent air frying results due to leaving the pan in the toaster oven with the frying tray. The convention effect needs air to freely circulate around the space, it may have been too crammed in the oven to properly circulate the air. Did you try air frying with just the frying tray in the unit? If so, did you get better / more consistent results?
Great point. However, the tray is the one that came with the unit. At the end of the day, this is a great toaster, but not a great air fryer. Cheers. Marc
I was thinking about buying this. Thank you for your thorough review with a wide variety of foods. I was a little disappointed with the consistency of the french fries because that is likely what I would be using it for the most.
Thanks for the great comment. Honestly, I’ve had this for a while now. I don’t think I’d buy it again. Let me know if u want me to run down the reasons why. Cheers. Marc
@@TheAverageKitchen Marc. Thank you for the honest appraisal. Costco sells the Ninja version for a decent price. I think I'll go with that one.
Lemme know how you like it ! Marc
I wish the ninja grill could bake brownies and bread well lol. The grill is the best ive encountered for air frying, so much so i cant commit to this oven just for baking haha.
Thanks for watching. Marc
How it is working after a year? BTW I'm happy found your RUclips channel, love your video review was very informative!
Thanks so much, my honest opinion on this product…. It just became a toaster at my place. Never used to air fry etc. so in retrospect, I don’t think it’s worth the money and counter space. Thanks for watching. Marc
You must make sure when you do French Fries to put them around the tray Evenly for the time stated & they will be good all over . but great video & good fun.. hope your lip is fine now..
Good point ! Thanks !! Marc
The fries are not consistant because they are not spread out evenly. I suggest add salt pepper and olive oil to the fries.
Thanks for the comment ! Marc
Or even no cookie sheet under them so the air can circulate. There is a crumb tray to catch anything that falls.
Just bought this at Costco. Should I take it back and buy the newer dual heat/griddle version?
Thanks for the comment, I’m not familiar with that newest model to be honest. Marc
I have the Dual Heat Ninja Foodi Oven. Have you done a review on that model SP302? It worked great for toasting and baking. But....anytime I cook any kind of meat it will leak the grease out the back and onto the counter. Not sure how it does this, maybe it pulls the grease splatter into the fan somehow? It does this in the cooking position (not flipped up) even after I clean the grease off of the sear plate. I agree with another comment on how horrible they are to clean. Baked on grease is impossible to remove. Love your reviews, I am currently watching your other reviews to find a replacement model.
I don't think we've reviewed that model. Thanks so much for the comment! - J
Just bought one and followed the owners manual to run on air fry at 450 for 20 min and it was working fine until it shut down and an error message popped up! I unplugged it and plugged back in and everything seemed ok, so I try the air fry again and the same error happened! Call the support # and the guy had no clue. Is it defective?
I’ve never seen that pop up. Ever. I would say there’s an issue with it. Marc
Did you come up with a for sure answer on aluminum foil? Can it be put on crumb tray? Or use Parchment paper?
I’ve been using it with no issues ! Marc
Great review
Thanks! - J
Just got this today for only 75! I can't believe I ever cooked without this thing I'm never using my oven again. 😀
Wow. Smokin deal ? What country do you live in ? Thanks for watching !! Marc
@@TheAverageKitchen❤
🤙
Great video!!
Thanks so much ! Marc
I already have a ninja foodi with pressure hooked, slow cokker etc...my regular toaster went out. Iam wondering if u should get an ninja oven toaster eventhough I already have the ninja foodi.? I wonder which one is more convenient to use for certain things like toasting erc..i just would like to know if I end both?
Great question. Honestly, i wouldn’t get it. I have multiple ninjas. And I basically just use this to toast, toaster oven. I find it too narrow to air fry. I’ve learned this now over the months I’ve had this. Hope that answered your question. Cheers. Marc
@@TheAverageKitchen thank u I guess I will just get a regular toaster. It's more convenient than using ninja foofi to toast bread
Agreed. Marc
Seems its fine to use foil. I thought on parchment paper allowed.
👍
Canada the best neighbor a country could have.
Damn right! 🇨🇦 - J
Thank you
You're welcome! - J
I doubt you're supposed to use the cookie sheet in the oven during Air Fry. Maximum air flow is key to even convection cooking.
Great point. However, just following the guidelines they presented. Thanks for watching. Marc
Yes, this is what I was thinking too, air fry needs air circulation so just mesh should be used (my opinion)
Point taken. Again. We were showing the product in the way the suggest it’s to be used. Thanks for watching and the comment. Cheers. Marc
@@TheAverageKitchen You did the right thing. I have one. If you ever to air fry without the tray things are going to get Smokey.
Yes, I agree 100%, the drippings end up on the bottom heating elements and makes a Smokey mess. Thanks for the comment ! Marc
Good stuff man!! I wonder what air broil is used for. I thought it was for fries 🍟
Thanks so much! - J
Is the wired tray and air fryer basket steel ?
I would assume yes, but cannot say 100%
Do you know if a casserole can be made in this?
Would have to be quite the thin casserole dish. The opening is very narrow. Marc
Hello, What do you think of the Halloween Cake with Ninja Foodi ??? 🎃
The detailed recipe with decoration here: ruclips.net/video/M01vU-_aP0M/видео.html
We'll have to check it out! - J
How long does it take to preheat on the bake setting?
I would estimate within a minute or two. It’s super fast. Thanks for watching ! Marc
@@TheAverageKitchen how long does it normally take to cool down?
I would say if you let it run through it’s cycle with the door open 2-4 minutes. But often I just unplug it. Leave the door open. Marc
Jack of all trades, master of none. Anyone whos had a dedicated real air fryer knows what Im talking about. This is basically just a conventional oven
Agreed. Thanks for watching ! Marc
Have not seen anything on this review of others on the bake. How does it do on brownies, cupcakes or cake, pie?
Great question. I’ve never baked with it. But it’s pretty narrow in the heigh department. Marc
How about the Cuisinart one. My concern is the inside width and depth and it would have to height too. I like your videos, very well done. Thank you for your prompt reply.
Thanks very much. Not sure on that one. But we reviewed the KitchenAid toaster oven. It’s amazing ! Marc
ruclips.net/video/UolQuzdVurk/видео.html
Can you do a review on how best to clean this? I use mine daily and can’t get the caked on stuff off the heating element. Thanks! Love your channel.
We've considered it so who knows what could happen. Thanks for the support! - J
Where did you buy it and how much. Salsa on the side!
Click on the link below the video. I believe it was $225 Canadian off Amazon. The link will take ya right to it ! Thanks for watching. Marc
I just got one at bed bath beyond today for 75 on sale. - If you see this in 2022 better go get one because this thing is awesome
Amazing !!! Marc
Doesn’t it toast in that flipped up position?
No, it's only for storage. Thanks for watching! - J
Hi I just bought one.. but the 3 times I tried making chicken, it starts burning 🔥 smoke
Any idea?
Maybe cuz I used olive oil?
Could be the olive oil, could be the temp you are cooking at ? Marc
No olive oil. Booklet says canola oil or vegetable oil. read boolklet.
Off or on the side sauté
Nice! Thanks for watching! - J
Fries turn out best when in a layer in the basket instead of a pile
Thanks for watching ! Marc
Of course the "frying mode" doesn't work properly if you block the air from below with the black baking plate.
It’s the one ninja supplied with the product. Marc
Have you guys tested the SP 202 new Xtra Height model? Looks great.Fir people with dorm rooms,studios,and RVs with limited space looks ideal.More importantantly,plastic Air Fryers at hi heat release Forever Chemicals that cause cancer and DNA mutation.Not so stainless & metal units.
No we haven’t, I’ll research it thanks ! Marc
@@TheAverageKitchen Bobby Parrish on why Not to use most Air Fryers.I have children & grandkids too Marc.Best to u and ur YT partner.

Is this a convection oven?
Yes, one of the features is a convection oven. - J
Mine only lasted a year & after that the lights turn on but no heat-it’s as if something blew out! Not good & it wasn’t cheap!
That really sucks. Call Ninja? - J
Can you make chicken drumsticks in this? I'm trying to find a video of someone doing it and haven't seen one yet
U totally can, however, the narrow design of this unit limits how big of a piece of meat you can put in it. Hope that helps. Marc
@@TheAverageKitchen I thought so I will have to look at your other videos I just got one and want to do everything I can with it 😂
Awesome thanks !! Marc
I love this oven. It's more then a "toaster oven".
Agreed! - J
Minimal salsa ON the nachos … a bit on the side …
Props on the crinkle cut fries ….keeping it old school
We bought a toaster oven recently … went with a Cuisinart model … supper satisfied with it
Great 👍vid boys
Thanks for watching buddy ! And the great comment - cheers. Marc
I use a pizza paddle with a short handle, to take dishes out the oven, saves on getting burnt.
Great tip! Marc
I purchased this Ninja Foodi because of it's excellent reviews. Watched RUclips videos and was impressed by its apparent toasting ability. It doesn't toast with a darn. I returned the first one because of its poor toasting. Second one is even worse. This morning (first attempt at toasting) took two full rounds at darkest setting to toast 3 slices of bread unevenly. A total ripoff! I really don't care what else it can do if it doesn't make good toast.
Wow. That’s crazy ! I’ve have no issues with mine. Sorry to hear that. Marc
It does work good, but check reviews on cleaning the oven, it’s very hard and time consuming,I used sos pads and easy off, then it looks old,
Sure, it looks good new, I have a self cleaning oven.why am I going back to scrubbing the WHOLE OVEN ,and I used the spray oil and cleaned it didn’t even cook like chicken or meat
Thanks for the feedback and watching ! Cheers. Marc
Maybe the smaller opening means less heat leaks and faster heating etc 🧐
🤔🤔
Yes it does. It's great forte is that it is faster than bigger ovens in heating up and also a LOT more economical. With rising inflation and energy prices, all types of air friers are now selling like hot cakes in the UK (sales up 300%) and this shines compared to other air friers in that it can handle bigger meals and also do toast and is also a conventional oven. I hardly use my big oven now but obviously the ninja cannot handle a full sized Christmas turkey!
Very interesting pov. Hard to argue, you’re 100% bang on ! Marc
I love a real baked potato (microwaved doesn't count), but hate turning my oven on in the summer. Has anyone baked a potato or two in theirs?
I've done so in the newer Ninja oven and it works great. I don't see why it wouldn't work in this. Thanks for watching! - J
Is the foil ok to use ?
I would. Marc
👍thanks for the great review very helpful
Thanks so much! - J
Surprised at the use of aluminum foil. I thought it was a No No on digital Airfryer Oven.
That’s an interesting point. I never even thought of that ! I’ll have to research. Thanks for the comment and watching ! Marc
I think you can use parchment paper instead of foil
I just purchased The ninja digital air fryer and read Do not cover crumb tray or any part of the oven with metal foil this will cause the oven to overheat or cause of fire. Also never place aluminum foil on top of the sheet pan or broil pan this Traps grease and cause a fire. Just thought I’d comment in case anyone wants to know :)
Aluminum and Teflon coated anything are never used in our home. Both are not human friendly due to extreme toxicity.
Stainless, cast iron or enamel coated only.
You are not suppose to use aluminum foil in it as per the instructions. Use parchment paper instead.
Thanks for the tip! - J
You should try air frying cheese curds
I’ll do that ! Thanks Marc
One thing about Air Frying Cheese Curds, though is that I always put them in frozen, not thawed.
Great tip ! Thanks. Marc
you should have spread the fries out in a single layer, they're bunched up, they would cook more evenly
Thanks for watching ! Marc
After
i have the same fryer but A REAL PAIN TO CLEAN!!
I agree. Marc
Nice 👍
🤙🏼🤙🏼
Try regular fries not crinkle fries. Works great!
We'll have to try that! Thanks for watching! - J
it says nachos should be made on air broil btw
👍🏼👍🏼
Salsa on!! Then top with cheese
Cheers !! Marc
or my Sios how much bread fits that aoarato is surprising.
Ok thanks for watching! Marc
Bought one. Lasted a few months. Really liked it. Not very durable
That sucks. Did they replace it ? Marc
@@TheAverageKitchen just called them and they will. Cool, I was not going to even try. As it was like 5 months old. Impressed with their service.
That’s great. Glad to hear it !! Cheers. Marc
I believe the instructions say not to use aluminum foil in it, and the air fryer basket should be used alone without the baking sheet under.
It may, but the trade off is more cleanup. Thanks for watching! - J
Hey, so, the instructions say NOT to use foil… just an FYI. Use parchment paper instead. Cheers!
Good to know ! Thanks !
I thought we shouldn’t use foil
Maybe, maybe not. We found it works to minimize cleanup, and doesn't seem to affect much at all. - J
This was a pretty good video but whoever is operating the camera when he talked about the light and hit the switch they did not show what you were doing? If you had a better camera operator I’d say this was an excellent video!
Thanks for the comment. We will take that into consideration for future videos. Marc
Or in Australia - a Dagwood dog!!!!
Interesting !!! Marc.
Dude man you are intense! Feel like I’m watching a NFL announcer!
I hope that’s a good thing ! Cheers. Marc

Nice! Thanks for watching. - J
The directions say DO NOT use aluminum foil in this oven

Toaster ovens don’t make great air fryers. Air frying is best done in a regular air fryer.
Thanks for you POV ! Been working great for me ! Thanks Marc
I like when my kids can cook themselves. I get less responsibility and a dinner.
Lol nice. Thanks for watching! - J
Wondering about cooking real food, not frozen stuff?
Such as ? Thanks for watching and the comment. Marc
@@TheAverageKitchen such as fries from raw potatoes, chicken breast, chicken legs, fresh meat, fish and veggies!
We’ve done those tests on other ninja air fryers, as you could appreciate, we cannot do every test on every video. Check out some of our other videos !! Marc
With the fries, maybe don’t put the tray in the bottom?
🤙🏼
That oven is too small good job you didn’t use thick bread lmao
I agree. Waaaayyyy too small. Sitting on a shelf in my basement now. Marc
Salsa off
Agreed 👍 - J
Praise the LORD for creating this methodical machine!
God said "Let there be a Ninja Foodie Air Fry Oven", and there was a Ninja Foodie Air Fry Oven! - J
Cool machine.
Probably not a good idea for kids to cook themselves, no matter how safely they do it
I guess that depends on age, responsibility, etc. Thanks for watching! - J
Kids can cook with supervision and learn safety around kitchen appliances. Age appropriate of course.
You’re not supposed to use the baking sheet when you airfry. That’s your issue.
Thanks for watching
Hey bud, someone fucked up building your kitchen if that doesn't fit on your counter top flipped up. Literally against building code to have less height than what that fits into.
Thanks bud, under cabinet lighting, and the skirting in front prevents the flip up. We look forward to your videos on your RUclips channel on building codes across the world ! Send us the link to your channel.
