At a glance

It suits families, meal preppers, and home cooks who want flexible weeknight and weekend use, with the probe helping deliver accurate doneness. Its main limitation is that the XL size takes up more counter space than smaller single-basket air fryers.

Things to consider
Its 5.7 L XL format is practical for families, but it is less counter-friendly than compact air fryers and may feel oversized for singles or very small kitchens.
Family size suitability
Best for 4 to 6 portions
Healthy cooking score
8/10 - air fry mode supports lower-oil cooking while still giving strong versatility for everyday meals.
Ease of cleaning
8/10 - dishwasher-safe accessories simplify cleanup, though the probe itself is excluded.
Counter space friendliness
5/10 - the XL format is useful for families but takes up more bench space than compact models.
Beginner vs expert fit
Beginner-friendly with enough control for experienced home cooks
Key benefits
- 5.7 L XL Capacity: cooks enough food for roughly 4 to 6 portions, making family meals and batch prep more practical.
- 6 Cooking Modes: lets you grill, air fry, roast, bake, dehydrate, and reheat in one appliance for broader everyday use.
- Digital Cooking Probe: monitors internal food temperature to help achieve your preferred doneness for meats and fish.
- Wide Temperature Range: supports low-temperature dehydrating from 40 °C through to high-heat cooking at 260 °C.
- Touch Controls: makes selecting modes and adjusting settings straightforward for everyday cooking.
- Dishwasher-Safe Accessories: most removable accessories can go in the dishwasher, helping reduce cleanup effort after meals.
- Indoor Grill Function: gives you a convenient way to grill proteins and sides on the benchtop without needing an outdoor barbecue.
- 2 Year Manufacturer's Warranty: adds reassurance for buyers wanting support beyond basic short-term coverage.
Q: Is everything on the Ninja AG551 dishwasher safe after cooking?
A: Almost. The removable accessories are dishwasher safe, which keeps routine clean-up simple after grilling or air frying. The cooking probe is the exception, so it needs to be cleaned separately rather than going into the dishwasher.
Q: Can this replace a small oven for everyday family meals?
A: Yes, for many everyday jobs. Ninja AG551 can grill, air fry, roast, bake, reheat and dehydrate, so it covers a lot of the work usually done by a small oven. It is still a benchtop appliance with one cooking cavity, not a full-size oven substitute.
Q: What does the Smart Cook probe actually do on this model?
A: The digital probe monitors the food temperature as it cooks, which is useful for items like steak, chicken or fish where doneness matters. It helps reduce guesswork, but it does not turn the appliance into a pressure cooker or add extra cooking modes.
Q: Is the 5.7 litre capacity big enough for family dinners?
A: Yes, for many households. The 5.7 litre capacity is aimed at roughly 4 to 6 portions, so it suits family dinners or batch cooking sides and proteins together. If you regularly cook for more people at once, a second round may still be needed.
Q: Can it dehydrate and reheat as well as grill and air fry?
A: Yes. Ninja AG551 has dehydrate and reheat modes as part of its six cooking functions, so it can handle more than grilling and air frying. The 40 to 260 degrees C range also gives low heat for drying and higher heat for roasting or grilling.
