Shoppers rejoice as ‘hero’ Ninja air fryer goes on sale in Prime Day deal

With hundreds of 5-star reviews online, the Ninja Double Stack XL 9.5L Air Fryer has quickly become THE essential kitchen gadget of the moment – even years on.
And it’s your lucky day, as alongside a bunch of other air fryers, it’s had its price slashed for Amazon Prime Day.
Normally priced at £269.99, shoppers who’ve had their eye on the appliance since it first hit the shelves in March 2024 will be pleased to know that it’s now discounted by a generous 15%, coming in at just £229 – saving you and your wallet the princely sum of £40.99.
Known for its clever innovations and quickly becoming a household name for kitchen appliances, Ninja are consistently delivering on practicality and function. And the Double Stack XL is no exception.
Featuring a two-tier design, this air fryer is a cut above the rest. With two drawers stacked on top of each other, this gadget is actually 30% slimmer compared to the popular Ninja Foodi MAX Dual Zone Air Fryer.
Measuring at 28cm, 47cm deep, and 38.5cm tall, it saves a large amount of countertop space but delivers the exact same capacity – 9.5L in case you were wondering.

Ninja Double Stack XL 9.5L Air Fryer
Whether you’re cooking a roast chicken or chocolate muffins, this air fryer won’t let you down and delivers perfectly cooked food every time. Don’t let lack of space deter you from purchasing though, this appliance boasts smaller dimensions and fits into even the cosiest of kitchens.
Able to easily cook for large families of eight, but staying compact enough for smaller kitchens, it comes with two Stacked Meal Racks that allow even heat distribution and perfect cooking of up to four layers of food.
The reason behind the design? Senior Director of New Product Innovation at SharkNinja, Osman Ozturk, explains: ‘We know how tricky it can be to fit in all your favourite appliances, particularly if you have a large family or love to host, so we’ve turned air fryers on their head in order to fit into narrower spaces.’
It’s not just space you’ll be saving on with the Double Stack XL though, it’s a real energy saver too. Using up to 55% less energy than a conventional oven, it’s a no-brainer for your next meal.
Shoppers have been leaving their honest opinions online. Here’s what they had to say:
Adam & Maria T gave it five stars and raved: ”This ‘double-decker’ air fryer is our new kitchen hero.’
Another reviewer claimed: ‘[The Double Stack XL] Uses very little space on the counter. Super easy to use. Quick and efficient. Easy to clean. Don’t know why we didn’t buy one of these sooner!’
With another saying: ‘I was extremely skeptical about purchasing an air fryer, but I can safely say this certainly has its place in the kitchen! Is it quicker than a conventional oven, no. Is it convenient and less mess? Absolutely!’
Featuring six functions in which you’re able to air fry, crisp, roast, bake, reheat, and dehydrate, there’s nothing Ninja’s Double Stack XL 9.5L Air Fryer can’t handle.
It’s not often a kitchen gadget seriously impresses us, but this one really does. And, with its current discount, we’re calling it now, this is one appliance you won’t regret buying but, hurry, we’re predicting this to be a popular purchase.
Jon R, one five star rater said: ‘This stacked ninja is perfect if you’re short of worktop space. This replaces my 9 in 1 ninja and has the same quality.’
Rose B hailed it the ‘best in the market,’ and added: ‘Love absolutely everything about this model. I’m pleased I waited for the double stack as it saves so much space. I’d highly recommend.’
‘Best Ninja product yet,’ penned Callum. He went on to add: ‘This is an absolute game changer for houses with different dietary requirements as you can contain meat/veggie to the separate drawers. It cooks so quickly and evenly and it is super easy to clean. I haven’t used the oven since receiving it.’
Someone else who’s yet to use their oven since purchasing the Ninja Double Stack XL 9.5L Air Fryer is Cam70. Also calling the cooking gadget ‘the best yet’, they went on to say: ‘Simply AMAZING, I haven’t used My oven since I got this. The simplicity of use is fantastic – I’ve done roast chicken and veggies, I’ve baked bread and muffins. I honestly think my oven will be completely redundant. Being able to set the draws for different times temps and sync them is a game changer.
Osman Ozturk, Senior Director, New Product Innovation at SharkNinja, said: ‘At Ninja, we love making cooking a joyous process for all. This is why we are so excited to introduce the new Ninja Double Stack Air Fryer. We know how tricky it can be to fit in all your favourite appliances, particularly if you have a large family or love to host, so we’ve turned air fryers on their head in order to fit into narrower spaces. With space to cook for up to 8 people and our DUALZONE technology built in; we’ve made your air fryer as efficient as possible. With 6 different modes of cooking, we can’t wait to see what you can cook with it.’
Well we’ve never added anything into our basket so quickly.
