Ninja Max XL Air Fryer AF161C 5.5 QT 1750W Grey Open Box

The Ninja Max XL Air Fryer AF161C cooks crisp, golden food for the whole family without the oil, the mess or the long wait. Its 5.5-quart ceramic-coated basket swallows up to 3 lb of French fries or chicken wings in a single load, so dinner for four comes out of one drawer instead of three staggered batches.

Max Crisp Technology pushes 450°F superheated air through the basket, cooking food up to 30 percent faster than the older Ninja AF100 and giving fried favourites a genuinely crunchy finish with little to no added oil. Seven one-touch programs cover far more than fries. Roast a chicken, bake a tray of cookies, broil a browned top onto a casserole, reheat leftovers without the rubbery microwave texture, or leave the dehydrate cycle running for fruit chips and jerky. The 105°F to 450°F range means low-and-slow and hard-and-fast both live inside the same appliance.

A 1750-watt element gets the basket up to temperature in a couple of minutes, and the digital panel keeps temperature, time and program on one readable display instead of hiding them behind a dial. Cleanup is the part most people notice: the ceramic-coated basket and the crisper plate both lift straight out and go into the dishwasher, and the nonstick surface means burnt-on marinade wipes away rather than needing a soak. At roughly 36 cm wide and 38 cm tall in grey and black, it keeps a modest footprint on a counter and still handles a family-sized load.

The crisper plate sits in the bottom of the basket and lifts food clear of the floor so hot air circulates underneath it, which is the difference between a true air-fried result and a small convection oven that only browns the top. A broil rack is included as well, raising food closer to the heating element when you want melted cheese, a browned crust or a quick finishing blast on something already cooked through.
