Which Should You Buy?

Ninja AF080 Mini Air Fryer

We tested the Ninja AF080 Mini and it does exactly one thing well: cook small portions fast in a tiny footprint. It is not for families. But for college students, solo apartment dwellers, or anyone who wants to air fry a single serving of fries or nuggets without heating up a full-size unit, the AF080 at $50 is hard to beat.

Ninja DZ550 FlexDrawer Air Fryer

We tested the Ninja DZ550 alongside the DZ071 and found the smart thermometer to be the standout upgrade. If you cook a lot of meat and want to nail the internal temperature without guessing, the DZ550 is worth the $20 premium. For everyone else, the cheaper DZ071 does the same core job.
