We are obsessive when it comes to fries. We spent countless hours testing not only what is going there, but also in the performance of each model.

Earlier this spring, a new type of fryer drew our attention – one with a Elegant glass cooking room This distinguishes him from the pack. After having traveled it our usual test glove, that did not simply impress us – he completely won us over.

The result? He won the CNET publisher’s choice price and won first place in our Best air fries from 2025 list.

Crispi is one of the most expensive air fryers we have tested at $ 160. But if you are looking for an easy -to -use, easy -to -clean air fryer, built to last and is not concerned with the interference of chemicals in kitchen utensils, the Ninja Crispi is worth checking.

Here’s how it works and four major reasons why I went to a glass air fryer in 2025.

Ninja Crispi 4-in-Portable Glass Air Air Fryer at a glance

• Style: Modular air sushy with two glass cooking containers and a separate cooking pod in three color options
• Dimensions: 13.5 by 12 by 13.5 inches
• Power: 1,500 watts
• Weight: 15.74 pounds
• Price $ 160

Configuration of Ninja Crissi

Although it looks like nothing like a typical air fryer, the Ninja Crispi was intuitive to install and use. Each of the glass cooking ships has an integrated support with feet that keeps it out of the counter surface. The side handles are also installed on the bowl stands, which not only allow easy transport between the counter and the table (because ships can also be used to serve), but also facilitate content if necessary during the cooking process.

The more non -stick plates have been packed separately and easy to place inside the bowls and to be removed for cleaning. Covers for 6 cup bowls and 4 -quarters were also included: an instant cover for the smaller and simpler pressed cover for the largest.

The cooking pod itself has an ergonomic shape for easy lifting and also has feet for a safe placement on the counter when it is not used. The cooking pod is easily found on the 6 cup bowl and a large batch adapter adapts to the cooking pod on the largest bowl. Between unpacking and rinse of all washable parts, I was ready to pass in about 2 minutes.

Operation Ninja Crispi

The cooking pod itself includes crisp, cooked, air and maximum crisp functions. CRISP is intended to revive the remains, while Max Crisp is the ideal setting for packed frozen foods. Although it is tempting, given its appearance flat to cooking, the glass tempware bowls are not intended to be used as real cooking containers for pasta in cooking mode, because the air must still circulate under the cooking containers to be effective. (Will I try anyway? The temptation is real …)

Press any button indicates a digital timer to which you can add or subtract the minutes. (The timer is by default 10.) Below 1 minute, the timer turns into seconds and the beep device to alert you when the cycle is finished. Overall, the noise level of the Ninja Crispi was similar to conventional fryer models, with just a moderate whirlwind during operation.

4 reasons that I went to the ninja crispi glass bowl

1. You can see what you cook

As expected, the ability to see the current kitchen was really satisfactory, both in a cheesy perspective and also to be able to seek visual clues in terms of returning your articles or assessing cooking. The chicken parts and the Brussels germs were cooked evenly and effectively with little risk of overheating given the 360 -degree window on the procedure.

2. Glass bowls are not toxic and easy to clean

Most air fries use aluminum cooking baskets with a non -stick coating. These coatings tend to flow and get down if you are not careful. Many people are concerned about health ramifications to ingest non -stick chemicals than the kitchen utensils chip. With a glass air fryer, there is no problem.

If that is not enough, glass is much easier to be deep than non-stick surfaces and you can use the dishwasher without problem.

3. Glass bowls serve as food storage containers

Versatility, however, makes Ninja Crispi extremely interesting, especially for passionate meal preparers. Complete meals or individual cooked components can go directly from cooking to the refrigerator, with the covers included for easy storage. (Although I am linked by the logistics of the refrigerator to tell you to let everything cool first, so you do not inadvertently increase the temperature inside your refrigerator.)

Additional baking bowls In a variety of sizes can be purchased separately, allowing the possibility of a multitude of meals cooked individually without cleaning required between the two: simply transfer the cooking pod of a cooking ship with the next assembly style. The preparation of Sunday meals has never been so simple, nor necessities of fewer dishes.

4. It is easy to store

The Ninja Crispi is also easy to store, with a footprint and a height requirement which are much less than many conventional models. This also allows easy portability – ideal for a meeting situation or even just a moment of hot self -care – where you could even justify the kitchen on site. One of the cooking bowls and the cooking pod could easily hold in a shoulder bag. If I worked in an office, it would like to bring everything with me to have a hot and healthy lunch without warm up. Although if you plan to be the person to cook fish directly to your office – maybe not.

Not only can the largest 4 -quarter bowl be used directly as a family style service ship – whose practical feet prevent the need for a speed or a pots holder – but it could be said that the smallest container with 4 cups can be used to eat directly, which considerably reduces the number of washing dishes. Speaking of washing, everything except the kitchen pod itself is a dishwasher.

What I didn’t like in Ninja Crispi

As a modular appearance with a ton of integrated practice and versatility, I think that the Ninja Crispi changes the situation on the fried market. That said, at $ 160, it is on the highest side, in terms of price, for an air fryer.

Those who have small ones in the house may also want to note: when the cooking pod is used with the adapter for large lots, the adapter can become hot and is potentially exposed once the heating pod has been removed. Would you like, if you are an absent cook yourself, it can be a danger.

Final verdict on the Ninja Crissi

If you are a disciple of fried kitchen Ninja Crispi is undoubtedly one of the most versatile models on the market. It’s satisfactory to use and easy to store and clean. You may want to search for sale during the first days or similar, but even without reduction, its usefulness and the reputation of the Ninja brand deserve its price.
