To cook food, the CRISPI must be placed on the 6 cup or 4-quarter borosilica glass air fry “baskets”, which come with the device-which is really more like casserole dishes, with finger-security handles and tupper-style covers . It is an adapter to allow the CRISPI to fit the larger 4-quarter size. The linings on the curly plates, as in many Ninja products, are a PFAS-free ceramics.
Insert the CRISPI, turn it to one of four air fry settings, and hit Go. Here it is. When the meal is done, discard the air fryer. Now the basket is a table-ready serving dish, complete with handles and base. Put the hermetic lid, and the dish is now your refrigerator or travel. Luckily, both are noticeably easily cleansed – easier than most non -steal metal baskets, in fact.
This makes the CRISPI be an ingenious exercise in an economy-zero anti-space solution, which has caused one UK writer to stop it as an air frit for the Housing Crisis. Another writer thought the device is perhaps perfect for zoomers, whatever it meant.
In all ways, the Crispi struck a nerve. Even with a price of $ 160, very high in the Air Fryer World, the CRISPI has sold multiple production races since the device was released in September 2024.

Now let’s be clear. There are compromises. Strictly judged by cooking activity, the CRISPI is far from The best air fryer you can buy for the price. The Fryer has only four a little squashy tunes: Recrisp, Baking, Air Frying and Max Crisp. The last two explosive air at high speeds, the first two whispering.
A sticker on the Crispi promises a slight temperature for each configuration, from 375 to 450 degrees Fahrenheit. In practice, even these fudes temperatures cannot be fully reliable.
For one thing, you will get different cooking times and airflow depending on whether you use the large or small dish. Both, the CRISPI tend to work at least 10 degrees colder than an advertised, thermostat thing that pursued other ninja -devices I tested. To obtain more than 400 degrees Fahrenheit, either inside or on a cold winter yard, select the 425-degree maximum curly setting. The Air Frying Configuration will approach you to 390.
