Ninja was named the UK’s number-one air fryer brand last year, and with its shelf heaving under the weight of its industry awards, it’s not difficult to see why. The catch? Air fryers from the popular US brand tend to pricier than some of its main competitors.
Thankfully, Amazon has solved that discrepancy with its latest 48-hour site-wide sale, cutting prices across the Ninja lineup. For the first time, you can order an XL-capacity Ninja air fryer with next-day delivery anywhere in the UK for under £100. Yes, really.
This is just one of a handful of impressive discounts on Ninja air fryers. But you’ll need to be quick, if previous sales on Amazon are anything to go by, stock vanishes pretty quickly — and Amazon won’t keep the deal running once it’s burned through its stock allocation.
The most affordable model is the Ninja Air Fryer Max Pro, with its single 6.7-litre drawer to roast, bake, and air fry. It ships in a stylish Black and Copper colourway, and Amazon will even bundle a pair of silicon tongs, so you can remove food safely once it’s cooked. This model earned a Recommended award from the team at TrustedReviews and clinched five-stars in a review from Ideal Homes.
Usually £169.99, this air fryer has now plummeted to £99.99 — a saving of 41%. Until today, the record low price for this model was £119.99, so you’ll save an extra £20 buying it in the latest Prime Big Deal Days sale, which ends at 11.59pm on October 9. The same model currently costs £129 when bought directly from the Ninja online store, although for those who don’t need the extra capacity, a smaller model is on-sale for £79.99.
Ninja Air Fryer drops under £100 for the first time ever
For the first time, the Air Fryer Max Pro from Ninja has plummeted below the £100 threshold. Amazon has slashed £70 from the Ninja Air Fryer Max Pro — dropping it to a record-low price. This model boasts a 6.2-litre drawer, which is large enough to fit up to four chicken breasts. With cooking modes like Roast, Bake, and Air Fry, Ninja says its clever gadget can cook 50% faster than a fan oven and uses 60% less energy.

Air fryers have surged in popularity due to the huge energy savings. According to data from Ninja, its clever kitchenware uses 60% less electricity than a conventional fan oven. Cooking time can be slashed by as much as 50% too, depending on what you’re cooking.
The term “air fryer” is somewhat misleading, as these clever kitchen gadgets aren’t only about crisping-up homemade chips with 75% less fat than a traditional deep-fat fryer. Air fryers can do everything you’d do in a fan oven, from baking desserts to cooking entire meals, and with a lot less electricity — with a 60% reduction in your energy bill, according to Ninja research.
Elsewhere, the Ninja Foodi Max dual-drawer air fryer has returned to its all-time low price of £159.99 — and full£20 cheaper than its price tag during the last round of Black Friday sales. This flagship air fryer has two dishwasher-safe drawers with a 4.75-litre capacity — for a total of 9.5-litre. That’s big enough to cook a 2kg whole chicken or 1.4kg of fries in each drawer.
As such, this Ninja Foodi Max model should be more than enough for larger families to cook an entire meal without switching on an oven.
As well as different preset heat modes (Max Crisp, Air Fry, Roast, Bake), including temperatures up to 240°C, the Ninja Foodi dual-drawer air fryer also has dedicated buttons to Reheat and Dehydrate meals. Each drawer can be set to a different temperature, with cooking time synchronised to finish at the same time — making it easier to time your cooking.
Research suggests between 30% (Leatherhead Food Research) to 46% (Iceland customer survey) of Britons own an air fryer. If you’re missing out on the faster cooking speeds, lower energy bills, then this Ninja Foodi dual-drawer air fryer is a good pick.
Ninja dual-drawer air fryer returns to record low price
If you’re looking for something a little bigger, this flagship dual-drawer model from Ninja is the best option. It boasts two vast 4.75-litre drawers for a total capacity of 9.5 litres. Ninja says that’s enough to cook a 2kg whole chicken or 1.4kg of fries in each drawer without using your oven. You can synchronise both drawers to finish cooking at the same time, and set them individually to different temperatures

Lastly, one of the newest additions to the Ninja lineup has also been included in the Amazon sale for the first time. Dubbed the Ninja Double Stack XL Air Fryer, this model was unveiled by the US brand earlier this year and is designed to solve one of the biggest headaches with its devices — the amount of countertop space required.
If you don’t have the spare worksurface to accommodate one of the large-capacity models above, the Ninja Double Stack XL Air Fryer could be the solution. In a world first, this clever model stacks the two drawers on-top of one another — minimizing the amount of room required.
Ninja says its designers have managed to reduce the overall width by 30% compared to the dual-drawer Ninja Foodi Max above. Despite this slimmer profile, the Ninja Double Stack XL Air Fryer has the same total 9.5 litre capacity, so you’ll be able to cook the same amount of food. Based on research conducted by Ninja, this model is capable of cooking enough food to feed eight people in a single session.
It boasts six different cooking modes: Air Fry, Max Crisp, Roast, Bake, Reheat & Dehydrate.
At launch, this flagship vertically-stacked air fryer cost £269.99 — making it one of the priciest ever launched by Ninja. But the latest sale on Amazon has seen that price tag cut to £209.99. While that’s a decent saving, this is still a niche proposition compared to the others.
Space-saving stacked Ninja air fryer gets first proper discount
Unveiled earlier this year, the Ninja Double Stack XL brings the vast capacity of the dual-drawer Foodi Max but squeezes it into a footprint much closer to the standard single-drawer Ninja air fryer models. If you’re short on countertop space in your kitchen, this could be a worthy investment to forgo your oven and cook food faster and using much less energy

The price cuts to Ninja’s award-winning air fryers are just a small part of the thousands of blockbuster deals included in the Prime BIg Deal Days sale. As always with this annual site-wide sale, you’ll need to be a Prime member to be able to access any of these deals. Without Prime membership, you’ll be stuck paying the full RRP for items that’ve been discounted in the sale. You’ll also lose out on next-day delivery at no extra cost on thousands of items.
But becoming an Amazon Prime member doesn’t have to cost you anything.
That’s because the US shopping giant offers a 30-day free trial of its membership scheme. Sign up, then cancel immediately and you’ll still be able to enjoy all of the perks of Prime membership for a month.
If you don’t cancel, you’ll be charged the usual £8.99 per month fee at the end of the free trial period. We’ve written an in-depth guide on this loyalty scheme to work out “is Amazon Prime worth it in 2024“.
