Really like the Ninja Foodi FlexDrawer. It’s easy to use, cooks everything brilliantly, and has become so useful that my oven is now basically an expensive cupboard.The large drawer is perfect for family meals, and I love being able to cook different foods at the same time. Very happy with it—although the oven is starting to look a little neglected. The flexible drawer can also be used as one large cooking area or divided into two zones.

I’ve been using the Ninja Foodi FlexDrawer for a while now, and it has completely replaced my standard oven. I genuinely haven’t switched the oven on in over two months because this handles absolutely everything I cook.Cooking PerformanceIt’s not just the usual air‑fryer foods (which do come out exceptionally well). I’ve cooked roast lamb, beef, chicken, flatbreads, ready meals — all of it comes out perfectly. The heat distribution is even, the cooking times are fast, and the results are consistently excellent.Dual‑Zone ConvenienceWith the divider in, Zone 1 and Zone 2 give you plenty of room for separate dishes. Different temperatures, different times, different cooking styles — and the ability to sync them so everything finishes together is a massive bonus. It makes full meals effortless.MegaZone CapacityTake the divider out and the MegaZone becomes a huge cooking space. The amount of room you get is incredible. Large joints of meat, big batches of food, full trays — it handles everything quickly and efficiently.Energy SavingsI’m already seeing a noticeable drop in my electricity bill. Because it heats fast and cooks faster than a traditional oven, it uses far less energy. That alone makes it worth the investment.My One TipIf you buy this, get parchment drawer liners. They save so much time on cleaning and make everyday use even easier.Overall ImpressionA superb, versatile air fryer that has genuinely changed how I cook. Fast, efficient, spacious, and capable of handling almost anything you throw at it. Highly recommended.

Full disclosure I am a hopeless cook whilst my wife a superb cook / home baker. Both cynical about jumping on the Air Fryer train. But watched a TV programme on them which got me looking. Decided to buy the Ninja AF500 10+ litre as offered the extra “prove” option and as we bake daily bread of value. Also a spring deal at time.First meal described as debacle amd on brink of returning having followed a recipe book instructions on a Chicken escalope and a burger. However day two honey coated tray bake very tasty, easy and fan noise level not as high as some say. Then onto crispy chicken 👍 fish and chips 👍 sausage and roast potatoes 👍 all cooked perfectly. Noticed food is moist and cooks well just have to turn the food and give it extra time preheat a minute works for us. Although both retired can see the benefit to busy working families. We added silicone liners which has made washing up and cleaning a simple task.The prove functionality excellent for the bread we bake and appliance already proving value for money so would recommend.An improvement would be liners that split the zones into 4 as a challenge if cooking three distinct items in a way an oven can cope with but that might be us learning. The main oven hasn’t been used in a week beyond baking bread.All in all converts to the Air Fryer groupies.The meat temp probe we added works very well with the dedicated Ninja app in UK but can see not available in many countries. It certainly helps with accuracy of cooking to taste.6 months on even better than we thought rarely use the oven. Air Fryer is great for bacon, reheating pre prepared Lasagne, Chicken Satay and chips as we walk the dogs ready safely when home.Now a year on and rare we use the main oven for day to day cooking. Quality of food is excellent and certainly remains moist and crisp when wanted. Best buy in kitchen in years. Bulky for a small kitchen but if got the space well worth the money.

I am so pleased with my new Ninja which is larger than my previous one. I loved the idea of the flexi drawer to cook large joints. The instructions are easy to understand and I have use this item nearly every other day since I purchased it 2 weeks ago. It is easy to clean although I have now bought the silicone and paper liners which means even less cleaning. All the food I have cooked so far has turned out well. I haven't tried baking yet but will do soon. It looks lovely, makes life easier as it cuts down on cooking time thereby reducing electricity usage. Highly recommend.

There's loads to like.It is easy to use, no matter if you are using the whole cavity, or half, or even using the two sections at different temperatures.It is pretty easy to clean, sometimes the plates need a soak and bits can get stuck in the grooves and holes but its not difficult to get them shining like new.I'm sure it's saved money as it really is enough oven for two people and I have rarely turned the main oven on since it arrived five month ago. It takes a little getting used too as often things need a lower temperature and a shorter cooking time, but trial and error and making adjustments as you go gives you a feel for things.My main issue with it is with chips and roast potatoes. I used to have a Phillips airfryer (gave it away when I got this sadly) which cooked chips and roast potatoes perfectly every time - although I used it for little else. Now, whilst I find this more flexible mainly because of its size and accessibility to the drawer, I can not for the life of me get a decent chip or roastie out of it, and believe me I have tried. I've tried making my own from scratch (par boiling, not par boiling, soaking and drying and tossing in oil), I've tried frozen fat ones, thin ones, crinkle cut, lattice cut and even the ones made specifically for air fryers, I've reduced the temperature, increased the temperature, reduced and increased the cooking time, air fried and maxi crisped. They always come out looking amazing but by the time they are on the plates they have lost the crispness. I never had this issue with my Phillips and I can not fathom why this should be different. Not sure if the middle of the chip/potato gets too hot and it is condensation; but whatever the cause I seem unable to produce crispy chips or roasties using this - otherwise - amazing machine.

the Ninja Foodi FlexDrawer Air Fryer has completely transformed how I cook.The 10.4L MegaZone is fantastic for fitting in large roasting joints or whole legs of lamb. But my favourite feature has to be the DualZone technology, being able to split it into two independent 5.2L drawers and using the SYNC function so both a main and a side finish at the exact same time is brilliant.It heats up incredibly fast, and functions like Max Crisp give everything a perfectly even, guilt-free crunch without needing oil.If there is one downside, it's the removable metal crisper trays. While they claim to be non-stick, grease tends to build up over time in the tiny grooves and corners, making them quite frustrating to scrub by hand. Even though the parts are technically dishwasher safe, I still find myself having to soak those trays and dig into the corners with a brush to get them perfectly clean.Despite the minor hassle with cleaning the trays, the sheer capacity, convenience, and speed of this Ninja Foodi FlexDrawer Air Fryer make it worth every penny. Highly recommended!

Great machine so easy to clean and use can’t wait to try new recipes food cooks quickerNot to noisy

Ich liebe mittlerweile die Ninja. War anfangs skeptisch... aber... sie hat sich bewährt.
