It’s a microwave, it’s a deep fryer, it’s a… soup maker? Ninja’s latest release could be the only appliance your kitchen needs

• The Ninja Crispi Microwave Helps Avoid the Problem of Soggy Reheated Foods
• It has a wide variety of presets to easily handle common kitchen tasks.
• It is for sale in the United States; International release details have yet to be announced.

Although quick and convenient, microwaves tend to make food soggy. That’s where Ninja’s new Crispi microwave comes in, combining the quick heating of a microwave with the crispy effect of a deep fryer.

Ninja’s new release isn’t the first microwave and air fryer combo on the market; Brands like Samsung, Smeg and even IKEA have launched their own two-in-one appliances that can defrost, cook and brown meals and leftovers.

There are two key things that set the Ninja Crispi microwave apart, the first of which is its wide range of handy presets for common kitchen tasks. Not only does it come with the usual settings you’d expect for jobs like heating up frozen dinners and jazzing up leftover pizza, but it also has dedicated modes for making soup, making popcorn, and even softening butter, taking the guesswork out of simple kitchen tasks that would usually require careful monitoring to ensure nothing melts or burns.

The second unique selling point is the use of non-toxic glass for air frying. The Ninja Crispi and Ninja Crispi Pro air fryers cook food inside airtight glass containers rather than in a drawer, giving you peace of mind if you’re worried about non-stick coatings. The Crispi Microwave contains a deep plate made of the same glass, which has a capacity of 5.5 quarts / 5.2 liters. According to Ninja, that’s big enough to hold an 8-pound chicken or four slices of pizza.
