What We Like
- Same Max Crisp 450F technology as the AF161 with an updated control layout
- 7 cooking functions cover air fry, Max Crisp, roast, bake, reheat, dehydrate, and air broil
- 4.7 rating across 7,000 reviews shows consistent quality
- Ceramic-coated basket is dishwasher safe and PFOA-free
What Could Be Better
- At $130, it costs $10 more than the AF161 for nearly identical specs
- Same 5.5 qt round basket shape that wastes corner space
- Hard to justify the price difference over the AF161 unless you prefer the updated panel design
Our Verdict
The Ninja AF180 is essentially an AF161 refresh with a redesigned control panel and a $10 higher price tag. We tested both side by side and the cooking results were identical. If you find the AF161 in stock, save the $10. But if the AF180 is what is available, you are getting the same proven Max Crisp performance in a slightly updated package.
