What We Like
- Built-in smart thermometer takes the guesswork out of cooking chicken and steak to the right internal temp
- 6 qt basket is 9% larger than the AF161, enough to cook for a family of 3-4
- Cyclonic grilling technology produces visible grill marks on proteins
- Ceramic-coated crisper plate is easy to clean and PFOA-free
What Could Be Better
- At $150, it is the most expensive single-basket Ninja air fryer
- Only 3,500 reviews so far compared to 25,000+ on the AF161
- The smart thermometer probe adds a part you need to store and clean
Our Verdict
We found the Ninja AF451 Pro works well for cooks who want precision temperature control without a separate meat thermometer. The built-in probe told us exactly when our chicken hit 165F, which is genuinely useful. At $150 it costs $30 more than the AF161 for the thermometer and an extra 0.5 qt of capacity, so the value depends on how often you cook proteins.
