Just bought this model so found your video very helpful.Thankyou👍

[@cathymackay5534]

Thank you for that. My sister just bought one, to save using the oven now gas/electricity prices have gone through the roof. I’m also considering buying one. As a visual learner, I need to see something being used to understand how to use it. Your video was very useful. Cheers, xx

[@GrumpyMansREVIEWS]

Glad you found the video useful. We use ours all the time.

Love mine, I recommend you use silicone tongs as you'll damage the non stick plate. Chicken looks amazing 👏 😋

I qualified as a chef in 1988 and over the year. my friend been asking if i have one of these and i said no. So finally i decided to try and find a good review and could not find one of course untill now. You have made my mind up to buy one for my home. Thank you for the brilliant review. The chicken looked amazing also...

I payed 179.99 black Friday from Argos, its now 249.99. Cooked me some salmon and the grill surprised me!! Makes cooking easy and enjoyable!! Great review, subbing

[@GrumpyMansREVIEWS]

That's a really good price. Thank you much appreciated!

[@matty6848]

Yeh I want one but don’t really want to fork out £250 for one. Just a little steep for me..

[@WizardOfTheKremlin]

mate, I've wanted to try curly fries in my Air Fryer for years, I bought a pack based on this video and cooked em like you did...OMG!!! perfect, The back said bake for 20-25 mins @ 220 degrees in the oven, they would of been incinerated!! I did 170 for 14 mins like you and yeah perfection! If anything thanks for teaching me how to cook my curly fries in my air fryer ha.

[@Rin_Evans]

Yeah with preheating and at 200°c it only took 5 minutes it’s brilliant

What temperature and minutes would you grill chicken drumsticks at please?

[@colinwatson1448]

Good review like someone else in the posts I got it when it was on sale and reduced by £100. Pretty good piece of kit and works well. But not a 10 from me, -1 because the spatter guard has a tendency to fall out at the higher temperatures and is difficult to clean even in the dishwasher and -1 again because the element is non removable for cleaning. Still worth it and I use it a lot.

[@GrumpyMansREVIEWS]

Thank you for sharing your experience!

[@matty6848]

Would you recommend buying one? I do like the look of it but £250 is a bit steep for me. Where did you get a £100 off it?

[@colinwatson1448]

@@matty6848 I like it a lot. I am cooking more and more stuff on it. Today I did the humble cheese on toast, garlic Mayo on the bottom, cheese on top, on to the grill plate 3 mins, splash with Worcestershire sauce noice:) It comes up on sale fairly regularly, I got mine from Amazon but other sites have sales too. So unfortunately I can't give you exact sale timings.

Rubber dingy rapids bro

[@Vyper05]

nice review, but is there any point buying this instead of just using your normal kitchen grill / oven?

[@GrumpyMansREVIEWS]

It's a personal choice, we love ours.

[@SimplicityForGood]

I cannot choose between the Ninja Foodi Dual Zone airfryer AF300EU and this Grill Max from Ninja you show here. What are the pros and cons basically between them that you would say is worth to consider before deciding? Thanks for getting back, trying to get one for Black Week/Friday now! 😊

[@GrumpyMansREVIEWS]

Hi, sorry for the late reply just seen your comment. I would go with this because you have the air fryer and grill, if you go for the dual air fryer, you only get the air fryer. My brother bought the dual air fryer and then when he seen this, he's like we made the wrong decision. However if you are going to use the air fryer a lot then the air fryer is best because you can air fryer two different foods.

[@SimplicityForGood]

@@GrumpyMansREVIEWS I see! But would you say that this issue of not being able to cook two things at the same time given you problems! Like if you grill something and then must wait for air frying fries your grilled meat will get cold during the time and vice versa!? Or how do you solve this issue? I am starting a keto lifestyle now with a focus on lot of meat.. and my apartment is small and so I have found the kitchen fan not being sufficient enough to get rid of all steam and fat when frying meat in a pan... So this is why I also was thinking that one of these would be better... does it come out any smell or smoke from these machines in your kitchen when cooking or does it stay 100% inside the machine?! How does that work?

[@GrumpyMansREVIEWS]

Yeah unfortunately this does let out smoke and smells. We have a larger kitchen with double patio doors and an extractor fan, when we cook meat we have to open both doors. We have a few air fryers so we don't have the issue of food getting cold, but you are right. I would say go with the double air fryer. I have ordered a new Tefal air fryer and grill but haven't received it yet, so can't comment about how much smoke it will let out.

[@SimplicityForGood]

@@GrumpyMansREVIEWS ok, will check the tefal ones as well then, thanks for getting back!

[@pinkykhan6012]

And what temperature have you used for chicken.

[@UnseenSpirit]

Do u need to always cook with that cable and thermometer in?

No you do not need to use that.

Does anyone know how to cook rice in the Ninja AG551UK FOODI MAX GRILL AND AIR FRYER please

[@millymaie]

I want to get this but I read a review by someone else that’s it’s hell to clean and you can’t clean it properly especially the hood Please what is your view as you’ve had it awhile and how do you manage to clean it thank you

[@GrumpyMansREVIEWS]

We clean it after each use, so isn't that bad. However if you clean it after using it a few times then I can see it being difficult.

[@TheGrkBoy]

I’ve decided to post a review after reading some negative ones kzbin.infoUgkxD4Qeo-HRLxMfom_PDinM_SBfes00qJsB I followed the cleaning instructions prior to using and preheated as well to ensure that we didn’t get the “plastic” smell or taste some have mentioned in other comments. I cleaned the basket with vinegar and water and the dish soap, and preheated it 3x to be sure. Honestly, the cooking time took about 30 min for larger wings and it’s a good idea to turn the meat half way through to cook evenly. The meat taste delicious 😋 Also, there is no mess on the counter from the vapor released during cooking time.

[@marcvbmw8579]

The chicken looks delicious I'm getting me one of the great review

[@GrumpyMansREVIEWS]

Thank you for watching!

[@BelfastBiker]

Once the food is cooked and removed, do you MANUALLY have to turn it off to stop the thing burning electricity? I tend to leave mymain oven on and burn electricty and a mild chance of burning house down.

[@GrumpyMansREVIEWS]

After the food is cooked it will stay on for 5 minutes before going off.
