Our Verdict

Ninja DualZone Pro DZ950

Dreame AeroFusion AF30

The Ninja DualZone Pro DZ950 is much better overall than the Dreame AeroFusion AF30. Its two independently controlled cooking chambers let you cook different foods at separate temperatures, and it delivers noticeably better results with both fries and chicken wings. It also has an integrated temperature probe for monitoring meat as it cooks. The Dreame takes up less counter space and has one large, uninterrupted cooking area, giving you more flexibility for foods that wouldn't fit comfortably in either of the Ninja's individual baskets.
