Ninja Foodi Smart Dual Heat Air Frying Oven Unboxing and Comparison

If you have watched any our other Ninja vids, you know we love our 'toaster oven'. But it is so much more and we just upgraded from the 8-in-1 (SP101) to the new 14-in-1 (SP350) which sports dual heat, a smart thermometer, and a sear crisp tray! And of course an increase in interior height. Join me for an unboxing and a side by side comparison. This model seems to be an exclusive with QVC where we bought it, but they have released the SP351 as well which is virtually the same thing.

I am sorry to see that Ninja Foodi ovens have gone the way of Dewalt, making models that look the same. So similar are they that it is easy to order to wrong one. I was in the process of ordering my own "9-in-1" model and almost ordered the (non-flippable?) SP101. Ninja, please stop the confusion. THANKS for the video Len, I had no idea there was a new model adding to this madness. You saved me Thumbs up for sure.

@LenBanks Жыл бұрын

you are welcome. All of the models that are of this low flat design are flippable, but yes they keep adding features making them 9 in 1, 12 in 1, 15 in 1 and someday 135 in 1. LOL. I don't think all the pre-programmed features are all that significant. But the sear plate is what makes this a game changer from the 101.

I really liked the additional cleaning capabilities with the flip open feature of the SP101, but I also like the additional capabilities and increased size of the SP301. If you had to choose, which one would you opt for?

Well there is some humor here as I did choose to upgrade. ;) I like the larger size and admittedly don't care a whole lot to keep it pristine inside. I like the flat nonstick sear plate just for general cooking even though I have not yet seared anything. And the height was an issue sometimes so the larger size is great. hope that helps.

Thanks. So to do casserole bakes and such we remove all trays/racks and put the wire rack on the bottom wheee the sear plate normally goes and that allows slightly more than 3.5 inches height clearance. I think the lid wouldn’t work but foil might depending on the bakeware.

@LenBanks 2 жыл бұрын

hi, not sure about doing wings and pizza at same time. I guess if you have enough room. but on the newer models the sear pan is considerably lower than the air fryer basket. so perhaps do them tiered. But then you have juices dripping on the pizza. Maybe? As for parchment or silicon, do have links for the black silicon mats. I use them for basic baking (shown in baking cookies video), but there are times I feel parchment is best. As for legit silpat, not sure if they make a square. I guess you could cut it.

Or can it be placed on the second shelf? 🤔 Will that affect cooking the chicken wings if there’s something blocking it underneath?

I got this on OVC and they had multiple colors to choose from. On the Ninja site, the 14-in-1 doesn't seem to be listed but a 15-in-1 says unavailable at the moment. I think it will be basically the same one packaged differently. These companies do targeted partnerships and packaging sometimes. I think this might be one of those.

I am not sure what all the various features are. It is my thoughts that most things can be done in any of the ovens except a few things. They just kept creating preprogrammed things to make it sound fancier. ;) The important change I love is the sear plate vs the SP101 black pan.
