Key features & specs

How it compares

The Ninja Crispi Pro stands out from standard basket air fryers due to its transparent glass bowl, which eliminates the need to stop cooking to check doneness. Compared to compact convection ovens, this model preheats faster and uses less oil, making it a great value for everyday use.

What to know before buying

1. Measure your counter space – the glass body is heavier than typical plastic models.
2. Be aware that glass can be fragile; handle with care during cleaning.
3. Preheat the unit for consistent results, especially for frozen foods.
4. Use silicone or wooden utensils to avoid scratching the non-stick crisper plate.
5. Allow the glass bowl to cool completely before washing.
6. Check that your electrical outlet supports 1750 watts to avoid tripping breakers.
