Best Air Fryer / myLot

Louisville, Kentucky

January 28, 2020 7:42am CST

We seem to have rotten luck finding a good air fryer. I think we have bought 3 or 4 over the last couple of years. I use it for bacon or sausage and my brother would use it when cooking dinner. I've thought about the Ninja Foodie but it's expensive so I would have to save for it. Does anyone have one? If so, is it worth the money? Or is there another brand that works good for you?

I would like the Ninja Foodie too, but I'm sorry I don't know whether it is better than the air fryer's.

I just wish they didn't cost so much. We have a Ninja coffee maker and love it.

@simone10 I guess you're paying for the quality of it.

I have a ninja blender and for being so much more expensive I hate it! Before you buy any read the reviews first. I wouldn’t expect air fryers to break so often that’s awful. Imagine how many are filling up the landfills.

I think we have just had some bad luck. One of them, my brother dropped it and it was bent and wouldn't close.

I hope you find one that you like. I have no interest in them, since we eat out often. When I do cook, I prefer my tried and true recipes. Good luck!

@DianneN I wish I could say the same but sweets are my downfall. That's not good because diabetes runs in our family.

I've only seen the Ninja Foodie in Wal-Mart. I hope you find one that works well for you.

I've never done bacon or sausage in our air fryer. I thought that the grease would linger, so that is why I do not use it for that. We have a Gotham Steel air fryer, and its about a year old now, and we really enjoy it. I feel it was a great purchase for what we cook in it. I believe that Izzy has a Ninja brand air fryer. And it must be wonderful because it was her posts about it that pushed me over the edge to buy one. We have different brands, but both enjoy them so much.
