I was an air fryer skeptic until I tried this model with its hidden gadget
Design and setup Compared to other basic air fryer models, the Ninja Foodi dual basket air fryer is a hefty machine. I won't go so far as to write it off as an eyesore, because surprisingly, even with its enormous size, it doesn't look that bad. Plus, its flat top surface doubles as a mini shelf for spices or random other knick knacks. And while I eventually came around to its size, it still takes up a lot of precious counter space. So I have to dock some points. Its interface is fairly intuitive, although I would suggest checking in with its manual to really understand how to use all of its settings. Buttons for its special smart finish and match cook settings, along with its six cooking modes — air fry, bake, roast, reheat, air broil, and dehydrate — are prominently displayed front and center. You can manually control the temperature for each mode but there are restrictions. For example, the air fry setting doesn't go below 300F. I understand this is for safety reasons, but it was frustrating when I wanted to hard-boil eggs at 270F. On one side of the machine sits the meat thermometer probe (a great hidden feature), which I found to be a clever placement — hooray for machines that include built-in storage for additional tools. There's a plug-in next to the left basket, where a meat dish is intended to cook if you're looking to use the probe. The top of that particular basket has a small divet where the wire is supposed to go, so it doesn't get crushed when it's closed. Additionally, the baskets have a capacity of 5qt, making a total of 10qt. They felt a bit small in comparison to my Cosori's 6qt basket, but in the end, they were spacious enough for every dish I prepared. I generally did like that there were two separate baskets that both conveniently included crisper plates and a removable tray that allowed heat to circulate around food to create a crispy texture. One feature that I missed from my Cosori was its 'shake' timer, which allows you to program a basket to alert you when it's time to flip or shake its contents for more even cooking. Of course, the simple solution for this is to set a separate timer for the Ninja foodi. Cooking Packed with six different cooking modes, the Ninja foodi could be an easy replacement oven for those living in a place without one. I personally favored the air fry and reheat modes, as I don't often need to do much more than that, as I prefer to defer to my oven when possible. To put the smart finish technology to the test, I cooked pork chops and fries. On the left side, I baked the pork chops, using the probe thermometer to alert me when they hit the desired medium-well-done temperature I was looking for. (I followed the manual's suggestion to reduce the temperature by 25 degrees when converting traditional oven recipes.) On the right side, I air-fried waffle-cut fries. After programming both baskets at different temperatures and cook times, I let the machine do its thing. It started by cooking the pork chops. Then, when just 15 minutes remained on the clock, the fry side kicked in, so that both could finish at the same time. Once the timer went off, the pork chops were perfectly cooked, but the fries needed a little more time, likely because there wasn't enough room in the basket to cook them in a single layer. By the time dinner was served, everything tasted solid. The fries were nicely crispy, though slightly overdone in some spots. And the pork chops turned out a bit drier than they would've been if I had cooked them in the oven, but still flavorful. This was definitely a trend I noticed whenever I cooked meat in the air fryer — it tended to lack that juice I usually get from oven or stovetop cooking. Though honestly, an air fryer would never be my first choice for cooking meat, anyway. Its reheat setting was nifty and convenient when I needed to warm up a pesto chicken sandwich and didn't want it getting soggy in the microwave. However, admittedly, I had no idea how long or at what temperature to set it, so it also came out a bit crispier than intended. After cooking several more dishes, I started to realize that Ninja's air fryer might be a bit more powerful than my Cosori. The temperatures and cook times that worked perfectly in the latter usually needed some tweaking to get right in the foodi. But with a little more time — and a few minor adjustments — this will become an indispensable kitchen companion. Cleaning This machine is one of the easiest things to clean. The baskets are made of a certain non-stick material that makes it quite easy for you to wash away any mess, either by hand or in the dishwasher. After simpler recipes, I washed both baskets and crisper plates in the sink with warm water and soap. But when it came to cooking a more messy meal or when I felt it required deeper cleaning, I used the dishwasher, and it came out spotless.

Health Canada Recalls Ninja Pressure Cooker Lid Over Burn Risk
A burn risk has prompted Health Canada to recall a pressure cooker lid linked to more than 100 injuries in the United States. The lid can be removed on several models of Ninja Foodi Tendercrisp multi-cookers while they are in operation, posing a potential risk of burn injuries when heat and steam escape, according to the May 1 . More than 184,000 Ninja Foodie pressure cooker lids are being recalled by Health Canada due to potential burn risks. Health Canada/handout photo The company received 106 reports of burn injuries in the United States but none had been reported in Canada as of April 10, the notice said. There have been five Canadian reports of lids being opened during use. The issued by the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission indicates that more than 50 of the reported injuries were second or third-degree burns to the face or body. Twenty-six lawsuits had been filed at the time the advisory was published. Health Canada is advising all owners to check if their multi-cooker is impacted by the recall. Products affected by the recall were sold between January 2019 and April 2025. More than 184,000 products were sold in Canada and 1.8 million were sold in the United States. Approximately 187 replacement pressure cooking lids were also sold as service parts in Canada and 15,616 were sold in the United States. Related Stories 2/27/2025 2/13/2025 The impacted multi-function cookers made by SharkNinja have a cooking chamber capacity of 6.5 quarts. The brand name 'NINJA' is located on the hinged lid/heat shield on the front of each unit. The recall notice features a list of seven affected models of the multi-cooker, along with instructions on how to contact SharkNinja for a replacement lid. 'Consumers should immediately stop using the recalled Ninja Foodi multi-cookers' pressure-cooking function and dispose of the existing pressure-cooking lid to prevent use,' Health Canada said, noting that the multi-cookers' other functions, such as air crisping, are not affected by this recall. The Health Canada notice did not say where the Ninja Foodi Tendercrisp multi-cookers were sold. The U.S. advisory said the products were available for purchase at Walmart, Costco, Sam's Club, Amazon, and Target, as well as on Ninja's online store.

1.8 Million SharkNinja Pressure Cookers Have Been Recalled
If you're the proud owner of a SharkNinja Foodi Multi-Function Pressure Cooker, be careful. The brand just recalled over 1.8 million of the popular devices due to a serious burn hazard. No matter how much you love your Ninja Foodi products, you'll want to check to see if yours is included in the recall before using it to cook your next meal. The problem stems from an issue with the pressure-cooking lid, which doesn't lock properly. The result: People have accidentally been able to open them while the cooker is in use, causing a risk of burn injuries. To date, SharkNinja has received more than one hundred reports of burn issues, over half of which involve second- or third-degree burns on the body or face. The recall is for the SharkNinja Foodi OP300 Series Multi-Function Pressure Cookers, all of which were sold in the black colorway and have a 6.5-quart capacity. OP300 series replacement pressure cooker lids that were purchased separately are also part of the recall, as they have the same defect that prevents them from locking properly while in use. If you have a SharkNinja Food Multi-Function Pressure Cooker, determining whether or not yours is among the models being recalled is relatively simple. Just check the model number printed on the label on the side of the cooker. Models that are part of the recall include the following: OP300 OP301 OP301A OP302 OP302BRN OP302HCN OP302HAQ OP302HW OP302HB OP305 OP305CO OP350CO You may see additional numbers following the model number, but those are not part of the model designation. If your model contains any of the above model numbers, it's been recalled. If you discover that your SharkNinja Foodi is among those that have been recalled, stop using its pressure-cooking function immediately. Then, reach out to SharkNinja for a free replacement lid that will allow you to safely use the pressure-cooking function. In the meantime, you can continue to use the air frying function and other functions as you normally would.

1.8 Million SharkNinja Pressure Cookers Recalled Over Burn Risk
If you own a SharkNinja pressure cooker, you might want to check out the model number. On Thursday, the US Consumer Product Safety Commission recalled over 1.8 million SharkNinja Foodi pressure cookers in the US and Canada, due to a serious burn hazard. The recall specifically affects the Ninja Foodi OP300 Series Multi-Function pressure cooker and air fryer. The recalled pressure cookers can unlock while still pressurized, causing hot food and liquids to spray out from the pot. The CPSC has received over 100 reports of burn injuries, with nearly half of the reports including second- or third-degree burns to the face. If you own a SharkNinja and are unsure if your pressure cooker is part of the recall, here's everything you need to know, including what steps to take if you are affected. The recall includes all Ninja Foodi OP300 Series Multi-Function pressure cookers, sold between January 2019 and March 2025 for $200 at retailers including Walmart, Amazon, Target, Costco, Sam's Club and more. The following model numbers are included in this recall: OP300 OP300C OP301 OP301A OP301C OP302 OP302BRN OP302HCN OP302HAQ OP302HW OP302HB OP305 OP305CO OP350CCO OP350CO The affected units were all sold in black, have a 6.5-quart capacity, double as an air fryer and were manufactured in China. If your SharkNinja pressure cooker is part of the recall, stop using it immediately. Head over to SharkNinja's recall page and register for a free repair kit. The kit includes a new lid with a locking mechanism that prevents pressurization if the lid isn't fully secured. Customers must provide personal information including name, email and address, along with photos showing the model number and serial number of the unit.
