Pros & cons

- ✓ Bought for the brand's service network and coating longevity
- ✗ Competent-but-conservative machine, consistently a step behind Ninja's dual-zone units in speed and crisping
- ✗ You pay for the service network more than for chart-topping results

On the other hand, it is a shame that the grids have such large holes. Because of this, carrot slices and fries fell underneath. And it was necessary to struggle to remove them manually between two cooking cycles. The digital touchscreen allowed us to easily change the programs and settings of the fryer.Watch
