This air fryer is not easy to clean. Yes the bottom door opens. But you have a drip tray to over that so that will never need anything other then a wipe down. The top that is exposed is so hard to get to. And it got very greasy after only the first use. And I only use none stick spay for the cheap pan they give you that bends when cooking over 450. We are parents on the go. We thought this would be alot faster and healthier. Speed is good but I'm not braking this thing down ever night and wiping it down. I would rather use my over.

It cooks fine and quickly. That much is true. But there is a glaring design problem with this: Anything that splatters while cooking (like any meat whatsoever) will leak out the back when you flip it up. So you are forced to do a thorough cleaning of the inside of the unit every time you use it. For me the space saving gimmick just isn't worth the extra time and effort needed to clean it every time.

very small cooking area, toast setting does not work very well, bought the unit to air fry chicken wings only able to cook 10 wings at a time, and wire mesh very hard to clean, used the unit for about a month or 2 and it went into the trash what a waste of $$$

I started my air fryer journey with Cuisinart. I am in the market for a new one b/c I’m giving my daughter my old one. This Foodie air fryer costs as much as the Cuisinart and does not cook like it should. The oven area is tiny! Either it doesn’t cook all the way or if I turn up the heat it burns. I am not one to babysit food in a toasted oven. I don’t recommend this one at all. Don’t be deceived by the pictures on the box! 0/10. I returned it!

I have owned this product for about 3 months, I really like it. It does a lot of functions very well. However I have 2 problems with it. The light quit working after a few days, it will not turn on with the switch. It does flicker when on the toast setting. The other compliant: This company has terrible customer service When I called about the problem, I was told I had to return the product at my expense for repairs. I will continue to use the product but will have reservations about purchasing any other Ninja products.

This is probably great if you are looking to only air-fry french fries or roast vegetables. The flip up feature is nice, but not enough to warrant any place in the kitchen. 1. Does Not Toast well, just dries the bread out 2. Not Tall enough to grill or roast anything thicker than 1" max. - Plus you must use the drip pan directly under the basket because of the heating elements on bottom and top, not sure how air is supposed to circulate when cooking anything other than toast. 3. Difficult to Clean-The stainless steel basket is difficult to clean by hand, too tall for the dishwasher lower, and top rack does Not remove all the food from the tiny holes. Overall I am extremely disappointed and regret the purchase. Word of advice, think about "what" you want to cook in it before investing in this item.

I use our normal air fryer almost daily with the kids. This just isn't tall enough for food and doesn't quite air fry like I want it to. You have to be cooking something rather flat like fish fillets. Also really easy to get messy inside with food and fingerprints outside. Total waste of money. Doesn't save me time.

Bought this in January. We have the Ninja Foodi Grill and so we have that to compare it to. This oven does not brown and crisp as well. I’d have to Air fry whatever I made for a few extra minutes to equal the grill. I learned the hard way not to cook anything greasy like bratwurst in it because there’s no height to the oven, grease splatter everywhere. I’m also not a fan of always having to use the black tray on top of the rack. The rack gets dirty from reheating pizza and then this black tray slides on top. Just seems like a newer version will think of a better way to use the trays. On a positive note, it is very easy to clean and cleans well. We don’t store it standing up but it’s nice if I need more counter space or to clean it. Lastly I’ll say had I known the cons I think I would have gotten the Ninja Foodi Grill XL instead.

Firstly, I DO love it - but - BUT! It's legit heartbreaking that you have to be careful to not cook anything too tall. The oven/fryer is great for pizza and fishsticks, but if try to put in a casserole in a shallow dish, but anything sticks up over the top of the dish, you're going to bump into the top of the oven. I like to pile chicken/veg/cheese in a small dish, but have to smoosh it down. My favorite treat is to make open face tuna melts- annnd you have to make them hordourve(sp?) size, because you'll bump the top, knock off the cheese, smear tuna/mayo. Frustrating. Personal pasta bowls rated oven safe barely fit height wise. If it were just three inches taller, it could have ruled the world. All that said- it takes up the aprx space of a pizza box when lying down, it heats up lightening fast, it's incredibly easy to use, - I just honestly wish I could toast the top of a casserole in it.

The control panel lettering is all fading away on my FT102A 9-in-1 Air Fry Oven! First the "Start" and the "Pause" (which are > 95% gone now), then the "Bagel", "Toast" (>80% gone), the "Bake" has lost >10%, "Reheat" has started coming off, and "Crisp Control" at the top have started to come off. I got this oven mainly for the toaster feature to heat/toast 8" tortillas (not stuffed, just the wrap). I also use it regularly for bagels or toast. I've used it 2-4 times for pizza, 1/2 dozen time to reheat cookies and 6-12 times to air fry waffle fries. And, I cooked wings once when I first got it as a test to compare against doing them in my range's convection oven. That's it, not much greasy cooking at all. And, since the only greasy/oily items were the couple of pizzas, wings once, and reheating cooking, I've only had to clean the outside with water and a little Dawn. The inside has generally only need vacuuming for crumbs. Wings/Pizza did result in a buildup near the exhaust vent on both the main unit and the bottom door (both of which are very hard to get the grease off off with soap and water). Also, the white ends of the heating units on the top of the inside will get discolored from any heater oil/grease and you can't clean them. So, other than missing letters (now words), grease wear near the exhaust fan on the inside of the unit and orangish-brown on the ends of the top heating elements, my unit still looks good. I just don't what some of the Crisp Control settings are anymore and soon, if I keep using it, I won't know what any of the 9 settings are. I talked with Ninja on the phone, twice, and their answer is to send out a replacement unit, if in warranty, but they said the lettering on the replacement unit is done the same way. To me, that means that with the same light use, the letters will be coming off in 6-12 months and you won't be able to get another replacement for the replacement. I'm returning it and won't replace it with the same or any Ninja model that has raised lettering like this one. I've searched online and people are having the fading lettering issue not only on this model but on other Ninja models as well. If anyone else is having fading lettering problems with the unit or similar Ninja units, please update your review and consider getting it replaced by Ninja within the warranty but, remember, the replacement is the same panel design. I really like the fold-up to the wall capability and the toasting quality (it really will toast nine slice of bread pretty evenly on both sides). It did a fair job on pizza but cooking the pizza in my range convection oven was better and required no clean-up. It did a good job on air frying waffle fries. But, I can do all of that in my range oven (except the toast) albeit the range uses more energy when more energy is not needed. But if I cannot read the the labels on the control panel because some are gone, others are fading away, and the rest will eventually fade away, this FT102A 9-in-1 Air Fry Oven is worthless.
