Our Verdict

Ninja Foodi DZ550

Ninja Combi SFP701

The Ninja Foodi DZ550 is a better air fryer than the Ninja Combi SFP701 for most people. The Foodi makes great-quality fried food, while the Combi leaves half of each batch either undercooked or burnt. It works faster too, preheating, returning to temperature after adding food, and cooking more quickly than the Combi. That said, while the Foodi is a dual-basket model, the Combi is still slightly more versatile, with a wider temperature range and more preset programs. The Combi also doubles as a combination cooker, and some may prefer it for the added convenience this provides; though, we haven't tested these functions.
