About Ninja FG551 Foodi Smart XL 6-in-1 Air Fryer
Overall Feedback:
92% positive
79% highlighted the presets, although 21% found them limiting
If you choose one of the presets, you can change the temperature or choose manual and select the desired temperature for the food being cooked.
Using the smart thermometer presets, I can perfectly cook steaks.
I had to activate the thermometer to access the preset modes as the instructions were inadequate.
I don't like having to come back every 6-10 minutes to add food, flip and whatever it says to do. This shows that the presets are not easy to operate.
79% appreciated the design, however 21% found it unappealing
The grill takes up counter space, but it is easy to move around and not too heavy or cumbersome.
The air-fryer is massive and has a little lip on the back that pushes anything behind it further back, making it difficult to place against a kitchen counter or wall.
79% found it noise-free, yet 21% reported noise issues
I am pleased with the air fryer except that it is noisy.
The air fryer is loud while running, but not as loud as a blender.
The air-fryer is extremely noisy and can trigger smoke detectors.
The fan is loud.

94% were satisfied with temperature controls
Once the optimal temperature is reached, the unit shuts off automatically.
The temperature probe can be set and forgotten, and it even tells when to flip the food over.
The temperature control jumps a few degrees between each press and moves in staggered increments.
81% liked controls and functionalities, although 19% found them confusing
Operating the air-fryer is not complicated at all.
As an experienced cook, I found the appliance extremely easy to set up and operate.
The controls are mostly intuitive.
There are large buttons for different cooking modes and additional buttons to control temperature and time.

83% were satisfied with the basket size, but 17% wished it were more spacious
The air fryer is a good size and can fit a lot of food for 4-5 people.
The grill can make a large quantity of food despite being compact.
This air fryer can easily fit an entire 2# bag of fries or tots, making it suitable for making large batches.
The basin is a couple of inches wider and shallower than regular cookers, making it great for meal prep or making larger batches in general.
