If kitchen counter space is an issue, you might consider the Ninja Foodi 8-in-1 Digital Air Fry Oven. Digital Trends’ Ninja Foodi Digital Air Fry Oven review praised this model for its great value, multiple functions, even cooking, and compact storage. It might seem counterintuitive to buy one of Ninja’s largest cookers to save space, but it makes sense when you consider that this single appliance does duty as an air fryer, a convection oven, and a toaster. Also, when its not in use, you can flip up this Ninja close to your backsplash or counter wall to save even more space. With its powerful 1,800-watt cooker, the Digital Air Fry Oven can air fry, air roast, air broil, bake, dehydrate, keep warm, and toast bread or bagels. To help understand the sheer capacity of this air fryer, consider that it can cook or warm up a 13-inch pizza, nine slices of toast, or six 6-8-ounce chicken breasts. The Ninja Foodi 8-in-1 Digital Air Fry Oven comes with a wire rack, a 13-by-13-inch sheet pan, an air fry basket, and a removable crumb tray for cleaning ease.

Two cooking baskets add to an air fryer’s versatility and the Ninja Foodi XL 2-Basket Air Fryer has versatility in spades. This Ninja has matched 5-quart baskets and six cooking functions. You can air fry, air broil, roast, bake, reheat, and dehydrate. Both baskets can use the same cooking function or they can cook using two different functions simultaneously.

Take advantage of the Ninja’s Foodi Smart Thermometer to be sure your food is cooked the way you like it. Just for a sense of scale, you could have 6 pounds of fries and 8 pounds of wings, both ready to eat with no waiting with the Foodi XL 2-Basket Air Fryer.
