I just got mine today. I am very happy it came! Alas, I have to wait to enjoy it. I go in for colonoscopy tomorrow, so NO FOOD TODAY. I have played with it and it works great. It is a DZ401 duel zone. I love the smart setting. It’s so simple to use.

Not super happy
I replaced my old air fryer with this one but find it to be a little too big. My food cooks differently in each basket. I am now only using one basket at a time. Maybe I is just my machine but I think I will have to replace with a different one. 3 stars since it does cook well on one side.

Hi Paula,
Thank you for taking the time to leave a review.
We’re truly sorry to hear that your Ninja is cooking food unevenly between the baskets, with one side cooking better than the other. We understand how frustrating this is, especially since you replaced your previous air fryer and now feel limited to using only one basket at a time. Please know that we value your feedback and will be sure to share it with the appropriate teams internally.
In the meantime, we recommend referring to our self-help guide link below to troubleshoot the issue you're experiencing:

This is the BEST air fryer
This is the best air fryer I have ever used hands down! The cooking is fast and cooks thoroughly, the dual baskets it’s a plus and you can even time stuff to finish at the same time! It’s built to last and was easy to use and set up out of box! I’ve not had to fix anything or had anything go wrong!

La best ♥️
I absolutely love this Ninja dual-door air fryer! The two independent baskets are a game changer — I can cook two different foods at the same time with different settings. It cooks food evenly, quickly, and with very little oil. Super easy to use and clean. Perfect for busy days and family meals. Highly recommend!

Best Air Fryer
LOVE THIS AIR FRYER! Easy to use, clean, and fits in any space we have! It is not as bulky I thought. The features on this bad boy is amazing & love how you don’t have to only use it as an air fryer. Very sturdy and has been lasting for almost 2 years!

We have made pork chops, half chickens, tater tots , fries, heated up pizza from next day, tacos, and overall used it more than our microwave. We got our last year. It’s been holding up amazingly.

Lot's to experiment with the Ninja Food.
We've been using this for about six months and love it. Great for frozen shrimp, chicken nuggets and much much more. We are now using the dehydration mode for making peppers for future meals.

Awesome at re-heating fried foods
This air fryer is awesome, you can actually re-heat French fries or whatever food you want in it! You can even bake in it, you have to get the silicone cupcake cups that stand up on their own, they come out a little lopsided but they taste just the same as if you baked them in an oven! Plus you really can cook two difference things at once, I’ve made burgers and fries, ...

Love my air fryer
A ninja multi basket air fryer is awesome. I love being able to cook multiple things at one time in an air fryer. It is super easy to clean and food is much better and healthier are cooked in an air fryer then in grease.

Love the dual zone
This air fryer cooks, quick and efficiently, I really liked the double compartment that lets you cook two different types of foods at different times and different temperatures. It is fairly easy to clean and maintain. Has been reliable and has not given us any issues over the years. It is a bit bulky and takes up quite some space, noise level is acceptable.

Air Fry like a pro!
This appliance is perfect for those who do not like to fry or cook with oil. It has multiple settings for different foods and recipes. The two baskets can cook separate items at the same time, such as fries in one basket and chicken on the other, or you can cook the same thing in both baskets when cooking for a large family, that is where the match cook comes in play. ...

The Air Fryer That Transformed My Kitchen – Fast,
I honestly didn’t expect an air fryer to make such a difference in my cooking, but this one completely impressed me. It cooks everything crispy on the outside and tender on the inside with almost no oil. The two baskets make meal prep so much easier, especially when cooking different foods at the same time.

The Ninja DZ401 air fryer has been a game changer in my kitchen. It heats up fast, handles heat evenly, and the dual basket features make cooking way easier. The size is perfect for bigger meals without feeling bulky, and the functionality is straightforward. Maintenance is simple, and even with its capacity, it still fits neatly in my kitchen storage.
