Our Verdict

Panasonic HomeMADE NN-CD66NS

Ninja Crispi MW101

The Ninja Crispi MW101 and Panasonic HomeMADE NN-CD66NS are both mediocre-sized combo microwave/air fryers. The Panasonic runs much quieter, and it adds a convection oven and broiler on top of its air fryer, making it the more versatile pick if you want something closer to a small second oven. The Ninja heats food faster, and its controls are easier to use. It also automatically switches from microwaving to air frying, so you don't have to step in and change the settings mid-cook.
