Air fryers have been all the rage for the past few years, promising faster cooking times and lower energy bills. If you’re considering joining the trend, now might be the perfect time to invest, as Ninja’s bestselling Dual Zone air fryer is currently enjoying a 20% discount on Amazon.
Ninja’s Foodi FlexDrawer Air Fryer is now down to £175.20 from £218.98, offering seven cooking functions and two independent cooking zones. This means you can cook your main course and sides simultaneously in one appliance. With a capacity to feed up to eight people, it’s ideal for larger families. The extra-large 10.4L MegaZone drawer can handle larger foods and traybakes, while the split 5.2L zones are perfect for sides like chips, vegetables, or smaller meals.
Ninja claims this air fryer uses up to 45% less energy than a conventional oven, based on testing and calculations for cooking sausages using the air fry function. So, you’re not only saving time in the kitchen but also money on your energy bills. The non-stick and dishwasher-safe design makes cleaning a breeze.
With over 32,000 five-star reviews, it’s no surprise that many shoppers are ditching their ovens for this appliance, praising it as a ‘game-changer’ and ‘unbelievably fast.’ One enthusiastic customer shared, “Love this air fryer, it looks fantastic and easy to use. I use it every day and love the fact you can take the middle draw out for extra room, which means I can now cook lasagna and shepherd’s pie in it. It wasn’t cheap, but the amount of use it has had, it’s worth every penny!” Another customer added, “Nothing not to like. I have a practically redundant pair of ovens. Never been a fan of sausages UNTIL cooked in the Ninja, no dried out skins just moist, moist, moist. For fish, vegetables and lots more you can’t go wrong. As for cleaning, literally swoosh out with hot soapy water and it’s done!” A third reviewer wrote, “Not used the oven since I bought this. Perfect size for larger families. Easy to use, not complicated, looks good and cooks everything amazing. Wish I had bought it a year or two ago.”
Despite the glowing reviews, not everyone is a fan. One disappointed customer shared, “The air fryer itself is nice and well-built, and it does the job decently. However, the photos they use to promote these air fryers are misleading. They make the fryer look massive, but in reality, you can only fit so much inside. I tried to cook chicken wings for a family of 5, but I had to stack the chicken on top of each other just to make it fit. For that reason, it took me 1 hour to cook the food because I had to pause just to rotate them. The air fryer is well-built but too small.”
As mentioned earlier, the air fryer boasts seven cooking functions, including air frying, max crisping, roasting, baking, reheating, dehydrating, and proving food. You can purchase it on sale for £175.20 down from £218.98.
If you’re looking for a more budget-friendly option, there are excellent alternatives available for different household sizes. Salter’s 2L Compact Air Fryer is now £24.50 down from £49 at Argos. Ideal for smaller counterspaces, it offers a 2-liter capacity, perfect for snacks or meals, with adjustable temperature control ranging from 80°C to 200°C. The convenient schedule start time feature allows you to plan your cooking in advance.
For those who need a larger cooking space, Tefal’s Easy Fry EY901N40 8.3L Dual Air Fryer is now £99 down from £170, saving shoppers £70. Similar to Ninja’s model, this practical air fryer features two drawers, one 5.2L for larger items and the other 3.1L for snacks and sides.
