Crispi 4-in-1 Portable Glass Air Fryer Cooking System

Every air fryer you have used has been a black box. Food goes into a coated metal basket, a door shuts, and you learn how it went when the machine beeps at you.

The Ninja Crispi inverts that arrangement: a 1500 watt PowerPod sits on top of a glass container and does the crisping from above, at the wattage of a full-sized machine, on Ninja's own comparison with its AF100. Two CleanCrisp containers come with it, and the difference between them is the point rather than an upsell. The 6-cup handles a single-serve meal in about seven minutes. The 4-quart takes a four-pound chicken with vegetables beside it. Four settings cover the rest: Max Crisp, Air Fry, Bake and Recrisp, the last one aimed squarely at last night's takeaway.

Because the food cooks in glass rather than in a coated basket, the glassware is made without PFAS or PTFE, which is the line Ninja leads with. It also means the container you cooked in is the container you serve from, then the one that goes in the fridge, then the one that goes in the dishwasher. No transfer step, no second dish. The pieces nest inside one another when they are not in use.

The pod's feet are permanently heat-safe, which is confident enough that Ninja is willing to name the worktops you can set it straight down on: granite, laminate, quartz, butcher block and marble. It draws 120 volts at 15 amps through a 36 inch cord, so it wants a proper socket rather than a crowded extension lead.
