  • Today I'm comparing the Ninja Foodi Digital Air Fry Oven with the Power Air Fryer Oven 360. They are both highly advertised on television, and I have already given the Power Air Fryer Oven 360 a positive review. How well can the Ninja stack up? Today I plan to find out.

    Looks great, functions great, and highly recommended.The buttons are touch (not pressure activated "touch"), which was a nice detail th-cam.com/users/postUgkxD4Qeo-HRLxMfom_PDinM_SBfes00qJsB Perfect size for normal every day meals, and it cooks food very thoroughly. On preset settings upon first use, it cooked my chicken breasts to a crisp. Boarder line too dry, so next time I'll either decrease temperature or time. Not a bad thing, just a minor adjustment for next time. No oil was used, so food was clean to the touch. Excited to see how other meals will turn out.Will recommend to friends and family in the future!

    For those of you who doubt the Ninja “brand”, listen up. I have been using both my Ninja Crockpot system (slow cook, sauté, bake +++) AND my Ninja Blender system (blender, crusher, smoothie maker +++) 2-3 times a week for 5 years and both are still going strong! I live in a small space and so real estate in my kitchen is priceless and I hold my wallet close to my heart. As with everything else, I research for months and was down to these 2 air fryers. Once again Freakin Reviews came through! Joining the lineup this Christmas is this Ninja Air-fryer! Thank you! I really want those scissors too! Where is the link?

  • @MPInvictus
    @MPInvictus 4 ปีที่แล้ว +65

    As someone who sells appliances, it was really obvious from the start that the Ninja would work better. A very basic principle of air fryers is maintaining heat and high airflow. The Ninja has a higher wattage element and a smaller total volume to heat. The smaller volume also means it needs to move air less relative to the Power to get the same results. This is why "basket" style air fryers work almost universally better than oven style ones, but the same goes for a tiny oven versus a large oven.

    • @CarinaCoffee
      @CarinaCoffee หลายเดือนก่อน

      This is actually a helpful reply, because I was thinking about maybe getting the Ninja with the dual baskets (or any other basket air fryer over 4l volume), but I've seen a lot of people use this oven one before and I really only need an air fryer for things like chips (French fries), dumplings, pasta crisps and maybe some (vegan) dino nuggets.
      I was worried that maybe the basket ones wouldn't have as good of an air flow as this oven style, but I have to say, I saw someone from the UK just review the new stackable dual zone Ninja vs the regular one with wider chips (French fries) like he used here and even the ones from the stackable Ninja looked more evenly crispy than from the Ninja oven (and the stackable one is not as good as the side by side one, probably because the air flow comes in from the back and not the top like it does in the side by side one)(edit, they were air fried for 12 minutes in both dual machines).
      Your comment and all the reviews I've been watching today have really helped me, thank you!

    I recently got the Ninja as a Christmas gift and even with my limited use so far, I love it.
    The fact that it preheats *SO FAST* is really what does it for me. I'm so used to my old toaster oven's preheat times that I often am not even fully prepared by the time its fully preheated!
    Its my first time having an air fryer, and I'm very happy with it so far.

      @@icytower38 I've really been considering getting one. I genuinely use my toaster oven/counter top oven daily - and far more often than my actual oven. I had upgraded to a nicer kitchen aid counter oven but they released their expensive air dry, dehydrator, etc oven a few months after. So I've really been debating which to upgrade to the new kitchen aid or Ninja. What has been your experience with doing meats and stuff like that? Like in my counter top oven I have right now it's probably as tall as the power air fryer in this video. I can make 3 chicken breasts at a time, meat loaf, burgers, tender loin, etc. I can't fit a whole chicken in it though. Have you had good success with doing meats? I do like that the Ninja seems much faster than any counter top oven I've been able to find. I know he likes his toast and other things a lot more crispy than I do. Do you find that it cooks too fast or it's harder to control darkness/crispiness/burning? Sorry if this is a lot of questions. Thank you for any help or answers you can provide. I hope you and your loved ones are staying safe and healthy during this crazy time ❤️

  • @L1ttlef0ot
    @L1ttlef0ot 3 ปีที่แล้ว +17

    I think the 300 watt difference is what’s making it do so well, combined with the smaller area for preheating. While they both eventually get the food cooked (the 360 taking about a 1/3 to 1-2 longer on average), then you have more power consumption for the same amount of food vs the ninja, despite the higher wattage it is being used for much less time. Also, the longer the food is cooking, the more moisture is cooked out of the food. Such as with the chicken and broccoli, the quicker the chicken is cooked to desired doneness, the chicken is less likely to dry out.
    Great review! I hope I have room for this under my abnormally low cabinets. I have a standard $40 black and decker 4-slice toaster oven I got 3 years ago and getting kinda tired of how unevenly it cooks. I don’t ever cook taller items in it, so I think the short form factor of the ninja won’t be a problem for me. If I have bigger things then I can use my apartment’s oven (it is a compact oven range, and the temp gauge seems to be off by around 30 degrees, but it does just fine).

  • @team5revolution761
    @team5revolution761 2 ปีที่แล้ว +7

    Nice review. One aspect you may have overlooked: The Ninja fryer is rated at 1800W, which is at the edge of the common 15A (Ampere) circuit (14-gauge in-wall wire in modern homes) if your line voltage is 120V AC. (simplistic arithmetic, 1800/120 = 15). Since line voltage varies, and it is often less than 120V, it is possible to overload the wiring circuit. More often than not that will be a non-event, for a small overload. But it may trip a breaker (or blow a fuse) from time to time, as long as the circuit is protected. In any case, make sure there are no other loads on that circuit or, even better, use a 20A circuit (12-gauge electric wire, protected with a larger capacity breaker). The 360 is rated at 1500W, which is a more conservative, tamer proposition, even if marginally a disadvantage in your review. If you rate cook time, please do consider power consumption and power efficiency. There are easy to use devices that can measure power consumption at a kitchen outlet.

Very nice to have the ability to flip it up and regain an 18" width of counter space when cooking/dicing/mixing, etc.
    Downside: ONLY MINIMAL HEIGHT ITEMS UNDER ~2" (👎🏽). & tighter area to clean, although the bottom/floor pivots down when vertical to access entire inside.
    Another great review, brother.

    We got the ninja thing a few weeks ago, cause we got a defective power air fryer pro, we leave it folded up when not in use and it fits under the cabinets perfectly when folded up so it’s great because we don’t have room for another microwave sized gadget on the counter, baked and warmed everything from cake to hot pockets and I like the look of the ninja better

    We had the power XL 360 air fryer first, and were satisfied with it. Then Costco had the Ninja air fryer on sale, and I decided to take a flyer on it and expected I'd probably return it that it wouldn't be any better. Wow was I wrong! My experience was pretty much the same as we saw in this review. The ninja fast preheating is a game-changer! Instead of walking away for 5 or 10 minutes waiting for preheat you just continue getting ingredients ready and then bam! The ninja is ready. It Cooks frozen pizzas so nicely, they taste so good and fast too. When you're hungry and you want tasty and fast, the ninja is the bomb! I also like that it toasts very well, so I don't need a toaster. The power xl360 just didn't toast well enough where I felt like I could forgo having a separate toaster. The Ninja toast just fine and is simple to use. I didn't expect there would be much difference between the two, but the Ninja really wowed me. I have a lightly used power XL 360 for sale..

    I’d be curious to see these same tests but simply move the food trays up to a higher position on the air fryer 360 and see if being a bit closer to the top heating elements improves its performance any.

    • @TheEmbersFromAshes
      @TheEmbersFromAshes 4 ปีที่แล้ว +5

      Exactly! 360 will still take longer to preheat due to lower wattage and larger capacity, but moving food closer to the element will make it brown more quickly. I don't quite get the obsession with foods browning. If fries are cooked and crispy what does the color matter? To me the French toast and broccoli done in the ninja both looked burnt.

    I believe that the 360 should have been set at 5% - 10% higher temperature for the same duration of time to adjust for the difference in the wattage between the two ovens. Theoretically that should have eliminated the need to cook the food with the 360 longer. Any interest in testing out this theory?

    • @watcherofwatchers
      @watcherofwatchers 10 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      The wattage of the oven should not matter, except for speed reaching the desired temperature. The temperature is the temperature. If one has to modify the cooking temperatures or times, then there's a problem with the product.

I do like the it folds up to get out of the way when not in use. The only plus that I saw for the 360 was rotisserie which honestly I probably wouldn't use that often anyway. So glad I saw this video. Keep up the great reviews James 👍

    It’s the wattage. 1800 vs 1500. And the smaller “chamber” doesn’t hurt either. The Ninja should heat up faster and hotter if you use equal times. I definitely noticed difference in my smaller 700 watt microwave vs 1000 watt larger one. I was constantly adjusting cook times.

    Hey James! I really enjoy your reviews. I have the 360 oven and have to say that you should be using different rack placements depending on what you're cooking. For example most of what you cooked could have been put at the "broil" rack level to make it a more fair comparison. By using the middle rack you're giving the 360 a disadvantage over the ninja where the food is always super close to the heat source. Sorry it was driving me nuts this whole video. Can you do a retest and use a different rack that is the same distance from the element as the ninja?
