Air Fryer Question...

Sunshine Kate — Sat, 11 May 2024 00:47:47 GMT

Just got a new Ninja Air Fryer with two pull out drawers.

Question: Are air fryer's noisy? This one is quite loud and it was something I wasn't expecting. Doesn't have to be silent, but would like it more quiet.

Any insight about this, or maybe just this brand?

TIA

@Sunshine Kate With 2 drawers, your air fryer probably has 2 fans operating. Can't you just use one drawer at a time?

I have this air fryer. It isn't loud, IMO. Sure you can hear the blowers, but it isn't any louder than any other air fryer have ever owned... a Power XL and a Phillips.

Maybe yours is defective??

I have a smaller & larger air fryer. The larger air fryer has more watts so it is noisy. The smaller air fryer is not noisy.

In general, air fryers are a tick less noisy than a hair dryer since they're enclosed in a shell. But the hair dryer analogy is a pretty good one as they're essentially just a super-heated hairdryer. If yours is louder than a hairdryer, then something could be wrong with it. And like a hair dryer, the design of the individual air fryer will vary the sound of the air fryer. One with a faster, more powerful fan will be louder than one with a slower, less powerful fan. They all make some noise, and are obviously louder than a "normal" oven with no moving parts, but if yours is louder than a hair dryer it might have an issue.

I'm thinking it could be defective also. Thanks for the input.

I didn't think about that, wanted one with two drawers though. Maybe I should have done more research on an air fryer. Thanks

Never thought about one being noisy.

Now I'm glad I've never bought one.

I have a Ninja dual drawer air fryer and don't think it's any louder than the exhaust fan over my stove.

They do make some noise. Our last one made more noise than the one we have now but still some noise.

nothing is as noisy as the ninja creami. sounds like a helicopter is landing or taking off. I love it. Even bought one as a weding gift. it is just loud, but it's only for a few minutes. if you have a creami, turn it on. you won't even hear the air fryer with the creami running.

Very true. They are a tick on the loud side. You can't sneak a frozen treat with the Creami without anyone nearby knowing it and showing up.

My Cuisinart is extremely quiet...... to the point I make sure that iit is turned off. Very pleased with it.
