Ninja - Dual Heat Air Fry Oven (SP301)

Yup I did a post on mine several months ago. Definitely takes more time when cooking with both sides and it can be hard to figure out timing. I wish I stuck with my single one.

I just mean in the sense that it cooks a lot slower using both sides vs one so have to figure out timing for stuff to be done. It isn't the usual times I would set when using just one side. Apparently this is an issue in the US due to voltage from what I was told numerous times on my last post. Just wish I knew before I got it. If you're in the US and this one takes just as long when you use both sides, you're lucky I guess. 🤷‍♀️ i have much longer cook times using both sides than I do with one, or with my one basket ninja I used to have.

We also lack counter space. We like the Flip, but keeping it clean is quite challenging

Air fryer, hands down. For $180ish (if that's your budget) the Ninja Flip is an air fryer, countertop oven, toaster, dehydrator, and more.

Have a Pampered Chef and a Ninja dual , the ninja is useful for cooking two different things but the Pampered Chef just outperforms the ninja in every way! We use it 3-4 times a week and have had it for 5-6 years.

My parents have the flip ninja one and it’s alright. Needs to be a tad taller but not like their huge model.

We have the ninja dual but don’t like it. Baskets are small and it is great to make two things at once the quantity for those two things is small so I want to go back to a larger one basket.

I have the ninja air fryer that flips up. It has like 10 functions including baking and toasting and keep warm. I use it for 90% of my cooking, unless it’s something too large to fit, that has to go in the regular oven. Microwave is good in its own way. Between the three appliances I can make just about whatever. I like heating some stuff up in the microwave until just warm, and then finishing it in the air fryer so it gets crispy, but doesn’t take 20 years, like nuggets or pizza rolls

I tried that one and didn't like it. Baskets are small and it's less efficient when using both baskets. I went with an Instant Dual Vortex instead, the two baskets are much bigger and running both baskets at the same time does not reduce its efficiency. I love it and use it for almost every meal I cook at home, and I think the dual basket makes it much more useful because I can cook my entree and side dish at the same time.

I have the ninja flip, from what I’ve pieced together from mine would be turning the fan on/off (air frying vs baking), broiling (only turns top heating element on), and dehydrating (low temp and maybe fan for a long time). I think toasting might turn top and bottom heating elements on at the same as well, ultimately just leaving it on air fry would realistically do all of it but selecting those individually might be slightly more efficient

Oh it’s definitely the most intuitive air fryer I have ever had, the only downside to me is how hard it is to clean since my model can’t remove the bottom panel like some can
