Ninja Foodi XL Pro Air Oven Review, Unboxing, Test and Cooks

[@JenniJohnson]

I waited to see if you’d review this! Thanks Darnell! Have a great week!

[@vachonc]

Qaa

[@LordGandor3]

Do not put the drip pan below the heating elements, put it in the slot just above the heating elements for obvious reasons. You don't want food & grease dripping on the heating elements. I Have had mine for a couple of weeks & so far it works great. My only negative is the white paint on the Power switch & the On/off switch has already worn off. Unfortunately Ninja is made in China so hopefully it lasts at least 2-3 years.

[@BIGDaddy504]

I am on my 3rd AirFryer and each has its Pros and Cons, and I am ready to replace them with my next. I have been torn with so many models with lots of research and I use your reviews since they are so detailed and honest, Thank you. I wish the makers of AirFryers would consult with you to make the uber AirFryer

[@Changelingheart]

Can I ask which has been your favorite and which to avoid, and why?? I'm assuming the Pros outweigh the Cons bc you continue to use the Air Fryers, no doubt bc the food benefits are worth it, as are the conveniences of using.

[@richardgodlove9662]

This is one of the best reviews I've seen. A little suggestion though. I noticed on my cuisinart fryer a lot of splatter was getting onto the top and upper elements. I purchased a 2nd fryer basket direct form Ninja (it's cheaper than Amazon) and I put it ABOVE what I am cooking. This catches almost all of the upwards splatter and does not interfere with air flow.

[@Changelingheart]

This is the tip I'm looking for. Bc cleaning the top and those upper elements has to be such a difficult thing to do in any air/oven. I was hoping the elements could be removed for easier clean-up. Like the heating elements (the eye) of the older styled electric stove-tops.

[@LordGandor3]

If your not broiling you could put the broil pan on the top rack to block any potential splatter

[@carriemartinez2933]

Yes!! Let us talk about that pizza function!!!!! I just bought mine a few weeks ago, was craving a jacks pizza something fierce, that pizza function is LIFE!!!!! And the Toast setting shade 4, is perfect for any sandwich melt!!! I pretty much quit using my oven, and semi quit using my stove as well!!! This has been a life changer!!!!

[@jokon70]

Very thorough, helpful review. This (and your 30day review) was the clincher for my buying the XL Air Pro. Your calm, sharing, authentic demeanor is admirable. Mucho thanks.

[@shaiaxelrud1568]

Best oven for baking all kinds of breads and cakes! This is never mentioned anywhere, even on Ninja's website! I might have made the biggest mistake, but I was the luckiest since my Caso Stem Chef was a disaster for breads! I could not have made a better decision. Thanks for your review from Tel Aviv!

[@magnustorque5528]

Amazing review. Extremely detailed with the kind of information that you often don't find in other reviews. people do need to know how large or small the interior dimensions are before they buy, and temperature is critical also. Some ovens claim to do 450 but don't go much beyond 400.

In the newer version of the ninja foodie xl, they've removed the fan guard, which gives it a little more depth... you're a good man... be blessed always.

[@larryeaton7384]

Thank you Sir for your expertise and well appreciated patience for informing the buyer of the unknown details in this Ninja 201 oven and the possibilities to consider as a self-made chef. I cook outside, inside, hot coals, smoking pellets, propane, you name it I love it! I have a Ninja kitchen. Coffee pot, pressure cooker, inside grill, air fryers out the ying yang and now I have the 201 oven. The only cooker left is Lightning and that will take some serious thought. Where you gonna buy it let alone harness it? Good video!

[@KevinBreen-mc6zn]

one of the best comments i have herd thank you Darnell

[@spsanders69]

Think I have settled on this one or the shorter. But think I definitely want to be able to put a whole chicken in and be able to fry two trays of stuff. Saw one in person and the XL pro isn't as big as I was expecting it to be. Think I will be going this route. Great looking machine to boot.

[@mikeocallaghan583]

Great review. The rear fan makes it unique as the speed is controlled by the setting you have selected. It is also a 3rd heat source to work like a rotisserie when cooking roasts and whole chickens etc. Also this is what eliminates the need to rotate the food like other ovens. Feature is highlighted right on the box.

[@joaofonseca6083]

is there any mode without the fan, for baking only?

[@juansamalot8693]

Thanks again for your time and video. I did pickup the Cuisinart Chefs convection oven 1800 watt 15-1. How would compare this Ninja to the Cuisinart Chefs? The warranty on the Cuisinart I believe is 3 year limited so that would be a plus, right? Anyway thank you for your review. Have a great and safe day.

[@14Marathons]

Excellent and very thorough review....Thank you very much. I just ordered the Ninja...to go with my Ninja Foodi Pressure Cooker....I've been very impressed with Ninja products... Thanks again for the detailed review....you covered everything. Very well done....like the toast...LOL

[@Changelingheart]

Other than the burnt area, for me that toast is perfect. But taking 5 minutes to toast a couple slices of bread is a big deal for me. I like the idea of making 4 slices of toast at once tho, and to have the bread fully toasted w/o toaster lines is probably worth the extra minute or so. (And a 4-slice toaster takes up a lot of space on a counter, too.) I like the addition of time while baking to complete the process as shown w/ the crescent rolls.. As far as the chicken bites, they typically use a higher temp and more time in any conventional oven bc they start out frozen. But also need to remember they tend to dry out quickly when baking. So I would not walk away from them. Can you smell foods as they are "cooking"? And does the air fryer retain any odors like a microwave does, even with regular cleaning?? Thank you!!

[@ryuken4757]

Thanks for a great review.... I just got mine and I just open and did the burn out. Quick couple questions, is yours even after turning it off but still plug in, the machine still running? Also, mine doesn't fan cover, have you heard or find out from others why some of it doesn't have fan cover (i am wondering may be because I bought mine in amazon and not in ninja website). Does the fan cover does help in cleaning or you prefer with no fan cover (I just want to see if I am missing a lot without fan. Any response is highly appreciated.

[@WaveOvenRecipes]

kzbin.info/www/bejne/hIPZqKt8fa-dgq8 kzbin.info/www/bejne/f6bakp1slK1qaqM You cannot have a fan cover, they don't make them anymore, their choice, because they decided to remove it. You cannot add one either.

[@angiepattillo3599]

The company concluded that nothing gets inside the fan, due to the fan blowing outwardly, therefore eliminating the need for the fan protector.

[@hollyarent9188]

If you get a chance could you do a comparison with the ninja foodi air fry oven to the ones you have already done. I believe it's the one that flips up. I like your reviews because they are very detailed and you compare other air fryers. Thank you.

[@WaveOvenRecipes]

You could always contact Ninja and ask 🙂

[@ianm1470]

The 90 second preheat claim stated on the box is very misleading. I and I’m sure other people would naturally think that means it would reach your target temperature in that time. But in reality after the 90 second preheat the oven has only reached 135°F approx. For an example it will take 10-minutes approximately to reach a target temperature of 450°F Just trying to clarify this point.

How does this compare to the Nuwave Bravo XL and which one do you like better and why?

[@wandat46]

I just bought this. Is the fan cover sold anywhere?

[@WaveOvenRecipes]

No. And you don't have the holes and connections to install it even if you got ahold of one. You would have to drill holes and install parts to have brackets to hold it onto. Which would immediately void your warranty.

You probably do not have one. They stopped making them with the guard years ago. But, if you need additional help, call Ninja customer service.

[@johnsanto4605]

As always, a very comprehensive review, Darnell. Just wondering if your Ninja XL Pro oven came with a temperature probe for cooking whole roasts? I do see that you used your own ambient probe for this video, which I'm assuming can be used to monitor temps for whole roasts, IDK. I watched one particular video prepared by the Ninja company illustrating how to use their temp probe with this machine. They showed that there is an input spot for the jack underneath the handle on the right-hand side. However, many of the videos I've viewed for this oven, unboxings, etc., do not include any with the probe supposedly "provided" by Ninja. Can you share any information? Thank you for your informative videos.

[@WaveOvenRecipes]

The Ninja Foodi Grill XL has that right where you mentioned. I show it here: kzbin.info/www/bejne/aKicp42KhN6JZ5Y The Ninja Foodi XL Pro Air Oven doesn't.

[@WaveOvenRecipes]

The iGrill 2 can be used to monitor meat temperature.

[@johnsanto4605]

@@WaveOvenRecipes I was finally able to find the Foodi XL Smart Air Oven Pro, model # DT251, that does include the temperature probe. It's selling on Amazon for $299.99. Really didn't want to spend that much money for that. The videos I watched including yours convinced me to buy this particular unit w/o the temp probe, so I purchased the same model that you own from BB&B at a sale price of $239.99 plus I had a 20% coupon that I used. Ended up being a good price for this item after it was all said and done. With the money I saved, I bought a probe thermometer with the wire connection, very similar to the one you used in one of your other videos from Amazon for less than $20. Just had my oven delivered, can't wait to get started & see what this baby can cook up!

[@WaveOvenRecipes]

Yeah they sell the higher cost one with the probe only on Amazon for now. I wasn't aware of it earlier. Since I pre-ordered before it was available. I agree with you though, no need to pay extra.👍🏿

[@WaveOvenRecipes]

No, consider adjusting how you wipe the front. I highly suspect some of you are using an abrasive cleaning product or wiping too forcefully on the handle. I have never had such an issue. See my latest video using it kzbin.info/www/bejne/sGXEpKp7fquDadE

[@brianm8052]

I haven’t even cleaned that area. It’s just from touching it. That’s the issue. Looking at reviews on Amazon it’s an ongoing issue but glad you are not having that issue. I’m just disappointed at a 299 price point tha lettering would be coming off. Amazon is exchanging it since Ninja wanted to charge me. I’ll see if it happens again. Thanks for your reply.

[@WaveOvenRecipes]

Something rubbing off from just _touching_ it. I have to think more is happening. Sorry, it just doesn't add up. I have used another cooker where paint rubbed off from vigorous cleaning. But just _touching_ I have to be the skeptic. Seems more came into contact with the handle than just touching. Maybe some type of oil, something.

[@brianm8052]

Not sure what doesn’t add up. I did a lot of reviews on this product and saw that this was an ongoing issue. I purchased anyway and was careful NOT to clean or wipe down that area. Even Ninja was aware of the issue and was willing to replace it but I didn’t feel I should pay for shipping. Everything else works great so far. Read some reviews on Amazon Bed bath and Beyond etc. Maybe it will help you add up.

I have seen already and feel it's more than simply touching it that causes the issue.

The toast numbers are how many inutes it cooks.. So probably the setting of 4 instead of the 5 you used, would make your toast the browness you want.

You may have missed the process I used. I intentionally started with it already hot, to see if it would recognize and automatically adjust. And demonstrated it doesn't so the results could be seen. Other cookers do better in this regard.

[@kangicosmos7676]

@@WaveOvenRecipes gotcha

[@blaskotron]

For me this oven on 450 bake will not get past 400. And most modes it takes a super long time to heat because it's just using the heating element around the fan and not the upper and lower elements. Reheat is the fastest heating mode because it uses the upper and lower on max. With the strange preheat on top of that you can't use this thing reliably without your own thermometer.

I showed it heats fine, you should call customer service.

An easier way to measure the side to side and front to back interior dimensions might be to measure the cooking racks and subtract out maybe half an inch for the slots where the racks slide in.

Do not put the drip pan below the heating elements, put it in the slot just above the heating elements for obvious reasons. You don't want food & grease dripping on the heating elements. I Have had mine for a couple of weeks & so far it works great. My only negative is the white paint on the Power switch & the On/off switch has already worn off. Unfortunately Ninja is made in China so hopefully it lasts at least 2-3 years.

The drip pan stays on the bottom. If you have something that will drip grease. This is how you handle it: kzbin.info/www/bejne/iKWvpKp5nZeNpKM I made a video about the paint: kzbin.info/www/bejne/rWG6opWGqZt8eZY
