01

DUAL DRAWER / 9.5L

Ninja Foodi MAX Dual Zone AF400UK

Two separate drawers give the AF400UK flexibility for meals with more than one component. You can choose different settings for each side, then use SYNC to have both finish together. The combined 9.5-litre capacity makes it worth considering for larger portions, although you should check the width of your worktop before choosing a side-by-side model.

FEATURE FOCUS

Independent drawers and synchronised finishing for meals with two components.

02

FLEXIBLE DRAWER / 10.4L

Ninja Foodi FlexDrawer AF500UK

The FlexDrawer offers a different approach to dual-zone cooking. Keep the divider in place for two independently controlled cooking areas, or remove it to create one larger 10.4-litre MegaZone. That flexibility is useful when your meals alternate between separate ingredients and larger dishes. Consider the size and handling of the single wide drawer as well as the advertised capacity.

FEATURE FOCUS

A removable divider switches between two cooking zones and one extra-large space.

03

STACKED DRAWERS / 9.5L

Ninja Double Stack XL SL400UK

The Double Stack places its two drawers vertically, offering an alternative when worktop width is limited. Included racks allow food to be arranged on additional levels, while separate drawer controls help you manage different ingredients. Its 9.5-litre total capacity is substantial, but measure the available height, depth and ventilation clearance before deciding where it will sit.

FEATURE FOCUS

Vertically stacked drawers provide a narrower layout with a large combined capacity.

04

SINGLE DRAWER / 5.7L

Instant Vortex Plus ClearCook 5.7L

A viewing window is the distinguishing feature of this single-drawer Vortex Plus. It lets you check the appearance of your food without pulling out the basket each time. Six cooking programmes extend its use beyond air frying to tasks such as roasting, baking and reheating. The 5.7-litre drawer is worth exploring if you prefer one cooking area rather than a larger dual-zone appliance.

FEATURE FOCUS

A ClearCook viewing window helps you check progress without opening the drawer.

05

FLEXIBLE DRAWER / 8.5L

Instant Vortex Plus VersaZone ClearCook 8.5L

VersaZone combines an 8.5-litre cooking space with the option to divide it into two zones. It suits people who want to change the layout to match what they are cooking, rather than commit to permanently separate drawers. The ClearCook version also provides a viewing window. Check the full product name when browsing listings, because VersaZone editions do not all have the same features.

FEATURE FOCUS

Flexible single-zone or divided cooking, with a window on this ClearCook edition.

DUAL BASKET / 9L

Philips 3000 Series Dual Basket NA352/00

Philips pairs a larger basket with a smaller one in this 9-litre dual-basket model. That arrangement is useful when your main dish needs more space than its accompanying side. Cooking times can be coordinated so both components are ready together, and dishwasher-safe baskets help simplify the clean-up. Think about your usual portion split when comparing unequal baskets with equal-sized drawers.

View manufacturer details
FEATURE FOCUS

Different-sized baskets give the main dish more room while keeping a side separate.

SINGLE BASKET / 6.2L

Philips 3000 Series NA332/09

This 6.2-litre Philips model offers a single cooking basket for everyday meals and a range of cooking functions. It is an option to explore if you would rather manage one basket than coordinate separate zones. Consider the shape of the usable cooking area alongside the litre rating, particularly if you regularly cook foods that need to sit in a single layer.

View manufacturer details
FEATURE FOCUS

A 6.2-litre single basket for people who prefer one cooking area.

VIEWING WINDOW / 6.2L

Philips 2000 Series NA230/09

The NA230/09 combines a 6.2-litre single basket with a built-in window, giving you a view of the food as it cooks. That can be useful when learning timings for new recipes or checking how quickly a coating is browning. It is worth considering if a visible cooking area matters more to you than having two separately controlled drawers.

View manufacturer details
FEATURE FOCUS

A viewing window adds visibility to a straightforward single-basket layout.

AIR FRY & GRILL / 8.3L

Tefal Dual Easy Fry & Grill EY905D40

Tefal combines a 5.2-litre drawer with a smaller 3.1-litre drawer in this air fryer and grill. The unequal spaces allow a larger main dish and a smaller side to cook separately, with synchronised finishing available. Its grilling capability adds another option for meal preparation. Check the included accessories and exact model code when comparing it with other Easy Fry editions.

View manufacturer details
FEATURE FOCUS

Unequal drawer sizes and a grilling option offer flexibility for mains and sides.

FLEXIBLE COOKING / 9L

Tefal Dual Easy Fry Flex EY9228G1

The Easy Fry Flex uses a removable FlexCook divider to change between two cooking zones and one 9-litre GiantZone. With the divider fitted, its 5.5-litre and 3.5-litre areas can use individual time and temperature settings. Remove it when a larger dish needs the full space. This is a layout to explore if your portion sizes and cooking plans change regularly.

View manufacturer details
FEATURE FOCUS

A removable divider creates either two unequal cooking zones or one large space.

BEFORE YOU CHOOSE

What matters?

Start with the meals you cook most often, then check the usable space, cooking layout and practical details of the exact model you are considering.

CAPACITY

Room for your meals

Litres are only part of the picture. Check the basket dimensions and how much food fits in a single layer. A large total capacity may be divided between smaller spaces that suit some meals better than others.

COOKING LAYOUT

One zone or two?

Separate zones help when ingredients need different times or temperatures. One larger area can be more useful for a bigger dish. A removable divider offers both layouts, while stacked drawers change the footprint.

KITCHEN SPACE

Measure before choosing

Check width, height and depth, plus the clearance specified in the manual. Allow space to pull out the drawer comfortably. Think about where the appliance will be used and whether you will move it for storage.

EVERYDAY USE

Controls and cleaning

Look for controls you find easy to use and cooking functions you will actually need. Check which parts can go in the dishwasher, how the basket is cleaned and whether replacement trays or accessories are available.
