If you’ve been following Ninja’s string of launches lately – from the Luxe Café coffee machine to the SLUSHi frozen drink maker and the cult-favourite CREAMi soft-serve machine – you’ll know the brand’s on a serious roll. And now, it’s turning its attention back to one of its biggest success stories: the Ninja CRISPi air fryer.
The Ninja CRISPi 4-in-1 portable glass air fryer has been a hit overseas for months – and now, it’s officially arrived in Australia. Compact, transparent and countertop-friendly, it’s designed for those who love air frying but hate clutter.
While it’s certainly not Ninja’s first air fryer, it is one of its most design-forward. The glass bowl gives you a clear view as your food cooks, while the portable base lets you take it straight to the table for serving. It’s a stylish twist on a kitchen staple – and another sign that Ninja is doubling down on sleek, multi-use appliances made for modern homes.
Small size, big functionality
The CRISPi might look minimal, but it still packs four essential functions: air fry, bake, roast and reheat. It uses the same high-velocity heat circulation found in Ninja’s larger models but adapts it for a smaller space – perfect for one- to two-person meals or quick weeknight sides.
If you’ve ever wanted an air fryer that doesn’t dominate your benchtop, this one’s built for you. The removable glass bowl doubles as a serving dish, and everything (except the base) can go straight in the dishwasher. A rare perk for such a sleek design!
What makes the Ninja CRISPi air fryer different?
Ninja says the CRISPi was built with “portable convenience” in mind – something that’s been driving a wave of smaller, multi-functional kitchen tech. From apartment kitchens to caravans, there’s a growing demand for tools that do more with less space.
Here’s what you can expect:
- Portable glass design: See your food as it cooks, then bring it straight to the table.
- Four cooking modes: Air fry, bake, roast and reheat.
- Compact footprint: Roughly half the size of a standard air fryer.
- Automatic cook programs: Smart heat adjustment for perfectly even crisping.
- Dishwasher-safe parts: Easy clean-up for everyday use.
Looks that fit anywhere
The CRISPi’s design marks a shift for Ninja. Instead of the chunky, industrial style its fans might know from the Ninja Foodi or Ninja Air Fryer Max, this model has soft curves and a portable glass body that can be tucked away in a cupboard.
It’s also available in three modern finishes like Cyber Space, Stone and Sage Green, so it can blend easily into your existing setup.

Frequently asked questions:
Yes, you can use foil in the Ninja CRISPi, just as you would with most air fryers. However, make sure the foil doesn’t block airflow around your food, as proper air circulation is key to getting that signature crispy texture. The glass containers also make it easier to see if your foil is properly positioned without having to open everything up.
The CRISPi is crafted from heat-resistant glass, BPA-free plastic and aluminium crisper plates with a PFAS-free non-stick coating. This means it’s designed to handle high heat safely, cook evenly and make cleaning simple.
It works like a traditional air fryer but in a compact, portable design. The PowerPod heats up and circulates hot air around your food inside the glass containers, cooking it quickly while keeping the outside crispy. The four preset modes – Air fry, roast, recrisp and keep warm – make it easy to cook a variety of meals.
If you’re after a space-saving, versatile air fryer for single servings, small families, or even meal prep, the CRISPi is a solid option. Its portability, clear glass containers and simple controls make it a convenient choice for modern kitchens, especially if bench space is limited!
