Ninja CRISPi Portable Air Fryer 3.8L
The Ninja CRISPi is a portable air fryer with tempered glass containers that lets you cook, serve and store food in the same dishes. The heating unit clips onto whichever container you choose and concentrates the power in a compact format, designed for small countertops and to move easily between rooms. The combination of hot air circulation and ceramic racks aims for a crispy finish, especially for potatoes, vegetables and battered foods, but it also works for everyday dishes such as chicken, fish or ready-made meals. The glass containers let you check how everything is cooking at a glance, without opening the lid, and they can be washed with water and soap or in the dishwasher. Reviews point to a high level of satisfaction with the final result and a low chance of disappointment, which fits quite well with the spirit of a demanding but practical lama.
- Watching everything cook through the glass. Being able to see inside while the hot air does its job is one of the star features. You don’t have to keep opening drawers or guessing whether the potatoes are already golden; you can see the texture developing from the outside. That brings a lot of peace of mind when you try new recipes and reduces the fear of burning dinner. Tip: use the glass to tweak times the first time and then repeat with no surprises.
- Compact and very portable format. The heating module is light and slots into whichever container you want, so the fryer doesn’t feel like yet another big appliance taking up half the countertop. People who cook in small spaces or like to move it to another room really appreciate this.
- Easy cleaning with no awkward corners. The glass containers and ceramic racks are fairly straightforward to wash, without impossible nooks where grease can build up. Compared with opaque metal baskets, here you can see if anything is stuck and remove it on the spot. Lama tip: leave the container to soak for a few minutes with warm water and a bit of detergent while you have dinner, and then you’ll barely need to scrub.
- Versatile functions for day-to-day cooking. The same machine can air fry, roast, reheat and keep food warm, so it easily goes from crispy vegetables to leftover pizza or a quick fish dish. For anyone who doesn’t want to fill the kitchen with different gadgets, having this small “all in one” is very convenient. Fact: even though it has several functions, the learning curve is short and you can master it after just a few uses.
- Capacity aimed more at smaller households. The large container is fine for complete meals, but if there are many of you at home you might need to cook in batches. For people who prioritise crispiness over serving all the food at once, organising sides and mains in successive rounds usually works well.
- Noise level similar to other air fryers. When it’s running you can hear the fan, which is expected with this kind of appliance. It’s not dramatic, but it’s worth knowing if you tend to cook at night in very quiet spaces. Putting it in a stable corner and not right up against the wall helps the sound feel less noticeable.
- You need to think carefully about where it will live. Between the cable and the space taken up by the container plus heating module, it’s not the sort of gadget you can use in any improvised corner. Planning a fixed spot on the countertop or on a side cart makes everyday use smoother and avoids moving the lama fryer around all the time.
- First uses involve a bit of trial and error. As with any air fryer, the first batches are for adjusting times and seasonings to your taste. Some people mention that one or two initial recipes come out less crispy or more done than expected. Making mental notes or writing down the combinations that work turns that small initial adjustment into a very useful guide for the future.
- Tempered glass containers that let you see the cooking process at all times.
- Portable, compact design, with a heating module that moves from one container to another.
- Multi-function: air fry, roast, reheat and keep food warm with a single appliance.
- Easy cleaning, with the main parts dishwasher-safe and few areas where dirt can build up.
- Main container capacity is more comfortable for one person or small households than for big feasts.
- Fan noise is audible while it runs, something to bear in mind in very quiet kitchens.
- Requires a short adaptation period until you’ve nailed the times and textures for your usual recipes.
If you’d like to bring an air fryer into your routine without filling the kitchen with huge gadgets, this model fits especially well. It’s a good option for people who live alone, couples or households that cook varied portions throughout the day and value being able to see the food while it cooks. Anyone who often makes vegetables, potatoes, chicken or leftovers will find the glass a big plus for control, which brings a lot of peace of mind. It’s also interesting for those who want to reduce how often they use the traditional oven for small preparations and prefer something portable that can come along to different rooms or even weekend getaways, as long as there’s a socket nearby. Lama tip: think of it as your small quick-cooking station, ideal for those nights when you want something homemade without fighting with pans and trays. If you recognise yourself in this profile, it can be a very pleasant ally on your countertop.
This glass air fryer aims to make your life a bit easier: cook, serve and store in the same containers, with crispy results and good presentation straight on the table. You use it to sort out quick dinners, make the most of leftovers or prepare side dishes without turning on the big oven, and that shows in everyday convenience. Does it really make sense to keep hesitating when you could already be trying new recipes? Making a decision today saves you mental loops and keeps the focus on enjoying the food, not the tools.
