Ninja Foodi 8qt Original Dualzone 2 Basket Air Fryer with 6 functions - DZ201: Stainless Steel, Digital Control, Dishwasher-Safe

A: Not all cooking methods allow you to go that high.

A: Unlike other machines, you have to select which type of cooking you want first (air fry, bake, roast, reheat, or dehydrate). Then you can adjust the temperature, and set the time. Mine only goes up to 400. Hope this helps. If not you may have a defective machine.

A: The Dualzone lets you adjust the temperature manually using the TEMP ▲/▼ buttons after selecting a cooking function.

A: These dimensions do not match what is listed for the product itself. We thought it was 12” wide and it’s 15

A: The dimensions are 15.63 inches (L), 13.86 inches (W), 12.4 inches (H).

A: No. No Odor except the smell of the food

A: May sound odd, but check if you are using cooking spray. I found if you use a soybean based cooking spray it emits an odd smell. Took me a long time to figure it out. Canola oil based spray is ok.

A: There shouldn't be any plastic or burnt smells from this unit.

A: I always place a wooden cutting board underneath mine when it’s in use…just to make sure the counter doesn’t get any marks.

A: We confirm that it is not necessary to put anything under this appliance.

A: try a Cornish hen, that should fit

A: The Ninja Foodi 8qt Original Dualzone 2 Basket Air Fryer isn't designed to cook a whole chicken.

A: This system does not have a rice or bean function. You can use the bake function in order to cook these items.

A: No. Both of these require substantial amounts of water. Buy an instapot or another brand of pressure cooker for rice & beans.

A: It has a button for each of those..

A: The function used will depend on how you would like the ingredients cooked. If you are looking to bake chicken you would use the bake function. If you wish to air fry your chicken you would use the air fry function.

A: The main baskets are made from durable, heat‑resistant metal, and the interiors feature a PTFE‑based nonstick coating for easy food release and cleaning.

A: This is definitely not supposed to happen. For further assistance, please contact our Ninja customer support team at 1‑800‑365‑0135, available Monday to Friday from 9 a.m. to 9 p.m. ET and Saturday from 9 a.m. to 6 p.m. ET.

A: No, the Ninja Foodi does not require a dedicated power source like some larger countertop appliances. It’s designed to plug into a standard household outlet.
