Ninja Foodi AF500 XXXL Flex Drawer 10.4L Mega Zone Air Fryer - AF500 - Bake -Air Roast - Reheat -Proof- Dehydrate - Colour Of Black and Silver

I love being able to take the divider out for baking etc. Very easy to clean compared to others which use mesh type trays. Just fill it with hot water and pop a dishwash tablet in then rinse out and scrub after a few minutes.

What I don't love about it:

The crisping tray gaps are too big, chips (even steak cut chips) etc fall through underneath and come out soggy.
The feet don't grip very well and the whole thing moves when I take the tray out. Not a big deal just annoying when trying to slide the tray out sometimes.

No way to turn off "cool" mode, I often like to set it to x amount of time then come back and turn the food over but it's not really possible with this model as it goes into cooling mode for a few minutes before you can start cooking again. Solution is to set a timer or something to come turn the food over rather than setting the cook time on the machine to half time etc.

Overall, I would recommend this to fellow foodies.

Best air fryer on the market, cooks very fast and the food tastes beautiful Best air fryer on the market, cooks very fast and the food tastes beautiful

I had a brabantia knock off of this from briscoes and it was terrible, and it started smelling toxic after a while so I decided to get the real thing and oh my god it is sooo much better and amazing! So glad I got it!

Brought the HOMNJA0009 back in 2023 which was an upgrade to my previous 3.8L Ninja Air Fryer also brought from PB. I tell you now.. if you have any of these and need the space for massive roasts short of a leg of lamb, this will do you well! Amazing product and another winner from Ninja.

Since changing to the XXXL flex drawer we have yet to turn on our standard oven. Everything from snack night to Sunday roast goes through this bad boy in half the time!

i spent heaps of time researching before i bought. This unit has simplified my life so much, no need for the oven anymore. Healthier because using less oil [get an oil sprayer and silicone baskets for this off temu].
To clean simply remove the divider, fill about 1/3 with water a little dishwashing liquid and put the drawer back in 200C for 10 minutes. Take it out and rinse. No need to dishwash anything.
Did find that doing a whole chicken works better if chicken is flatty. Makes the most awesome crackle and kumara fries too.
So good my gf replaced her old one with the same unit. i spent heaps of time researching before i bought. This unit has simplified my life so much, no need for the oven anymore. Healthier because using less oil [get an oil sprayer and silicone baskets for this off temu].

Had several airfryers in mind before deciding on the Ninja XXXL and I am thrilled we chose it. Super large draw for large family meals or two small draws for different meals done at the same time. Incredible quality and performance. As for the store, great service, knowledge. Had several airfryers in mind before deciding on the Ninja XXXL and I am thrilled we chose it.

I love my new Ninja air fryer. I had read that Ninjas were the best air fryers and PB Tech had the lowest price. I use it far more than my oven or BBQ. I love my new Ninja air fryer.

Family of four. The removable divider is a must if you’re doing anything for more than 2.
Works extremely well.

Pros:
Huge when you take out divider does what most air fryers do plus more silicon feet on trays also divider has silicon edges so nothing gets scratched.
Cons:
The fryer slides when sliding draw out

Update:
Got some foam feet and stuck it on no worries does not slide 4/5 stars Pros:

We did our research and this was the biggest and best we could get for our family. My family in the UK got the same one too. Love the amount we can fit into it, and its efficiency compared to our oven, which is becoming redundant! We did our research and this was the biggest and best we could get for our family.

Works well, making crispy pies and chips. The 2 drawers or one large drawer is a game changer, especailly since they can be operated individually or tegether.
It is large if you are tight for bench space. I alos recommend you get some of the silicone dishes and baskets made for air fryers to keep the inside clean and much easier to use.
