Air fryers are all the rage these days as such an easy and healthy alternative to regular oven cooking – no need for pre-heating so it saves energy. There is one which Amazon shoppers are raving about – the Ninja Foodi Air Fryer which currently is 20 per cent off in the sale on Amazon.
The Ninja Foodi Air Fryer is £199.99 on Amazon with its 20 per cent discount. The RRP is listed at £249.99. But you can also buy it for £179 at Ninja Kitchen directly.
The popular thing about this air fryer is that it has two independent cooking drawers. That means you can cook two foods in two different ways and they’ll both be ready at the same time. It’s quick and you can make complete meals using no oil. Air fryers use up to 75% less fat (tested against deep-fried, hand-cut French fries).

The sleekly designed fryer is a stylish matte black with copper accents and includes a pair of silicone tongs. It also has six cooking functions: Max Crisp, Air Fry, Roast, Bake, Reheat and Dehydrate. It means it can take on any type of meal and can cook up to eight portions. Each drawer fits up to 1.4kg fries or a 2kg chicken and cooks up to 75% faster than fan ovens. It comes with a chef-created recipe guide and a 2-year guarantee upon registration with Ninja.
The fryer has great reviews with 4.8 stars from 40,205 ratings with on reviewer writing: “It has not disappointed. We had an old air fryer (bought some 10 years ago now) which was so difficult to clean, noisy and took ages to heat up but this one is so well designed and WAY better.
“The drawers are non-stick and easy to keep clean (a friend advised us to use some greaseproof in the bottom of the drawer as well – which works brilliantly in terms of reducing the drawer cleaning to a simple wipe). Even better the crisper plates (aka shelf) are enamel and so go through the dishwasher.”
Another person said: “I decided to go for an air fryer and chose to spend a little more and get this one. What a great decision it was! Using it almost every day and it is so easy to clean. The quality of fries, chicken etc is great and I don’t need to stand there and look after it.”
One less enthusiastic customer said: “It cooks unevenly. Unlike other fryers, the hot doesn’t come from above but from the back of the unit. So what is at the front cooks well, but that nearer the back, where the hot air comes from, hardly cooks.”
There are lots of other air fryer alternatives you can look at too. For example the Russell Hobbs 4L Rapid Digital Air Fryer with seven cooking options, a touch screen and easy clean. There is only one drawer in this one but it’s much cheaper at £52.99 in a 44 per cent off sale and it has 4.6 stars from 844 ratings.
