The new model, available on <span class=\"c-shortcodeCommerceLink\">Ninja&#8217;s website<\/span> for $280, offers larger cooking vessels and a more modular design to encourage making not just snacks but full meals.<\/p>\n<p class=\"u-speakableText-p2\">Before launch, CNET was offered a sneak peek of the souped-up Crispi air fryer at the brand&#8217;s headquarters in Needham, MA.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Here&#8217;s our initial take.<\/p>\n<h2>Crispi Pro is more modular but with a bigger footprint<\/h2>\n<p>     <span class=\"c-shortcodeImage_caption g-inner-spacing-right-small g-text-xxsmall\"><\/p>\n<p>The freestanding base with locked-in overhead cooking element means this air fryer will live on your countertop and not in a drawer.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><\/span> <span class=\"c-shortcodeImage_credit g-inner-spacing-right-small g-outer-spacing-top-xsmall g-color-text-meta g-text-xxxsmall\">David Watsky\/CNET<\/span><\/p>\n<p>The new model features a larger 6-quart XL glass container &#8212; large enough to cook a whole chicken or meals for up to 10 people &#8212; and a low and wide 2.5-quart casserole-style dish (pictured below), great for browning the top of holiday sides like sweet potatoes or mac and cheese. It also works with the existing 2.5-quart and 4-quart glass containers from the <span section=\"shortcodeLink\"><span>original Crispi system<\/span><\/span>.<\/p>\n<p>The smartly designed glass cooking chambers double as serving platters and have tight-fitting lids that make it easy to store extra food for later.<\/p>\n<p>     <span class=\"c-shortcodeImage_caption g-inner-spacing-right-small g-text-xxsmall\"><\/p>\n<p>The Crispi air fryer system allows you to serve food in the same vessel you cooked it in.<\/p>\n<p><\/span> <span class=\"c-shortcodeImage_credit g-inner-spacing-right-small g-outer-spacing-top-xsmall g-color-text-meta g-text-xxxsmall\">David Watsky\/CNET<\/span><\/p>\n<p>Unlike its more compact predecessor, the Crispi Pro features a more bulky and permanent base that cooking vessels slide into so it won&#8217;t be as easy to stash in a large drawer or cupboard as the original version. The modular base allows for cooking chambers to sit at different heights via a flip-down shelf.<\/p>\n<h2>New modes for precision cooking<\/h2>\n<p>     <span class=\"c-shortcodeImage_caption g-inner-spacing-right-small g-text-xxsmall\"><\/p>\n<p>The Pro features a digital interface with two new cooking modes.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><\/span> <span class=\"c-shortcodeImage_credit g-inner-spacing-right-small g-outer-spacing-top-xsmall g-color-text-meta g-text-xxxsmall\">David Watsky\/CNET<\/span><\/p>\n<p>Two more cooking functions have been added to the original design. The Crispi Pro offers six cooking modes: air fry, bake, roast, dehydrate, max crisp and a gentle re-crisp.<\/p>\n<p>According to the company, the appliance includes precision digital temperature controls and can cook frozen food to crispy perfection in less than 15 minutes.\u00a0<\/p>\n<h2>Nontoxic and easy to clean<\/h2>\n<p>     <span class=\"c-shortcodeImage_caption g-inner-spacing-right-small g-text-xxsmall\"><\/p>\n<p>Unlike the original Crispi, the updated version features a permanent standing base that cooking chambers slide into at adjustable heights.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><\/span> <span class=\"c-shortcodeImage_credit g-inner-spacing-right-small g-outer-spacing-top-xsmall g-color-text-meta g-text-xxxsmall\">David Watsky\/CNET<\/span><\/p>\n<p>Glass air fryers present a welcome nontoxic alternative to traditional plastic air fryers. The Crispi Pro&#8217;s containers are BPA-free and leak-resistant, allowing users to prepare, cook, serve, store and reheat food in the same dish.<\/p>\n<p>In our experience, glass cooking chambers also make cleanup easier. You can pop the vessels into the dishwasher for a deep clean that is not as easily accomplished with nonstick baskets.\u00a0<\/p>\n<h2>Building on the success of the original Crispi<\/h2>\n<p>     <span class=\"c-shortcodeImage_caption g-inner-spacing-right-small g-text-xxsmall\"><\/p>\n<p>The Ninja Crispi Pro is available for $280 from the brand&#8217;s website.<\/p>\n<p><\/span> <span class=\"c-shortcodeImage_credit g-inner-spacing-right-small g-outer-spacing-top-xsmall g-color-text-meta g-text-xxxsmall\">David Watsky\/CNET<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&#8220;The original Ninja Crispi generated over 715 million impressions across social media since launch,&#8221; said Kelly Megel, vice president of Ninja Marketing, citing growing consumer demand for healthier cooking solutions.<\/p>\n<p>The Crispi Pro comes in four colors &#8212; cyberspace, rose quartz, bone and ash gray &#8212; and features what the company describes as a sleek design meant to remain on countertops rather than be stored away.<\/p>\n<p>The Crispi Pro is available for $280 on <span class=\"c-shortcodeCommerceLink\">NinjaKitchen.com<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>SharkNinja unveiled the Ninja Crispi Pro Countertop Glass Air Fryer, building on the success of its initial glass air fryer &#8212; our top air fryer pick overall &#8212; introduced last year.
