The Ninja Foodi 10-in-1 DT200UK is designed for households that want one countertop appliance to cover several cooking jobs. It has a 29-litre capacity, 2,400W of power, two cooking levels, ten programmes and a 90-second preheat.
Its programmes are air fry, bake, bagel, dehydrate, grill, pizza, reheat, roast, toast and whole roast. The supplied equipment includes an air-fry basket, roasting tray, oven tray, two racks and a removable crumb tray. This gives it more flexibility than a basic basket air fryer, particularly when food needs to be cooked on more than one level.
Currys lists the DT200UK at £199.99, reduced from £269.99, with a rating of 4.8 out of 5 from 465 reviews. Mumsnet also identifies the Ninja Foodi 10-in-1 as its best pick for accessories.
The Tower Xpress 11 Litre 5-in-1 Manual Air Fryer Oven is the most affordable fully specified model in this comparison. Tower lists it at £69.99, reduced from £89.99, for shoppers who want an oven-style appliance without the price of the larger Ninja.
It has an 11-litre capacity, 2,000W of power and five functions: air fry, rotisserie, grill, bake and roast. A 60-minute timer and rotisserie function give it a useful range for its size. Tower says it can cook a whole chicken on the spit in under an hour; this is the manufacturer’s stated capability rather than an independent test result.
The Tower suits buyers who prioritise price and rotisserie cooking over maximum capacity or automatic programmes. Its published specification does not offer the Ninja’s two-level, ten-programme format.
The Tefal Easy Fry Multifunctional Air Fryer Oven FW605840 is a 20-litre oven-style air fryer with ten automatic functions. Its programmes are air fry, roast, grill, bake, pizza, toast, dehydrate, bagel, warm and reheat.
Tefal’s product specification includes an air-fry basket, rack, food tray and crumb tray. It is suited to someone who wants a compact multifunction appliance with the familiar layout of a small oven rather than a single pull-out drawer.
Tefal says its Extra Crisp technology produced up to 99% less added fat in a 2023 test of frozen chips. That is a manufacturer claim, not a current independent comparison. The FW605840’s ten functions and 20-litre capacity distinguish it from the separate Tefal Easy Fry 15L listed by Mumsnet as a smaller-model pick.
Choose a countertop oven air fryer if you want a separate appliance that can be moved, replaced or used alongside your main oven. Choose an integrated oven with an air-fry function if you are fitting a kitchen or want to avoid another appliance on the worktop.
An air fryer oven is essentially a smaller fan oven with heating elements and a fan. Food sits in a perforated basket or on a rack so hot air can circulate around it. NEFF explains that its air-fry function combines a grill element, fan and extraction to encourage crisp results and remove moisture more quickly than standard fan cooking.
A built-in oven with air-fry function can remove the need for a separate countertop appliance, although dedicated air-fry trays are not included with every model.
A traditional basket air fryer is usually the better choice for small portions, quick everyday cooking and lower energy use. An oven-style air fryer is better when you want racks, trays, several cooking levels or extra functions such as toast, pizza and rotisserie.
Which? found that an air fryer often used less than half the energy of a built-in oven for smaller quantities, although the advantage became smaller when food needed to be cooked in several batches. In its whole-chicken comparison, the air fryer took 53 minutes and used 0.54kWh, compared with 76 minutes and 1.157kWh in the built-in oven. The stated costs were 14p and 30p respectively, using an electricity rate of 26.11p per kWh.

They can be worth it if you want one appliance for air frying, baking, roasting and other oven-style tasks, or if you need racks and trays for larger loads. A separate basket air fryer can use less energy for small quantities, while an oven-style model becomes more useful when several batches would otherwise be needed.
