Professional reviewers praise the Vortex Plus for its higher maximum temperature, powerful 1700 W element, and the addition of a dedicated dehydrate program, positioning it as a technically superior option within its class. Safety certifications and the ClearCook and OdorErase features are also highlighted as differentiators, though reviewers note the heavier build and limited long-term durability data.
Everyday users commend the appliance for enabling healthier low-oil cooking, its generous 6-quart capacity, and the ease of use provided by preset programs and a compact footprint. Common concerns revolve around the single-basket limitation, the unit's weight, and the absence of extensive user feedback, which leaves some buyers uncertain about long-term reliability.
“Powerful 1800-watt air fryer that can cook a 7.5-lb chicken, feeding up to 10 people”
“wide 80-450°F range, easy temp/time adjustments, and dual-container flexibility but notes the need for a dedicated circuit”
Professional reviewers praise the Ninja Crispi Pro for its 1800-watt power, six versatile cooking modes, and innovative modular glass system that doubles as storage, highlighting its non-toxic, heat-resistant glass and safety certifications. However, they caution that the high power draw may require a dedicated circuit, the unit is bulky, and warranty details are inconsistent across listings.
Everyday users commend the appliance for delivering even, fast cooking and the convenience of glass containers that can go from oven to fridge, noting the wide temperature range and easy cleanup. The main frustrations revolve around the high electricity demand that can trip breakers, the large footprint, and some confusion over exact capacity and the fragility of glass compared to metal baskets.
