Ive been scouring the early ad leaks for Black Friday 2026 and honestly Im a bit overwhelmed. I saw some sites saying the Ninja Foodi 10-in-1 is gonna be like 40% off on Amazon but then I read a blog saying Best Buy usually has better bundles with the extra racks and stuff. My kitchen is super tiny so I dont want to buy a massive unit if its overkill.
Heres what I need:
- Budget: under $150
- Use: mostly just wings and frozen snacks for two
- Space: gotta fit on a small apartment counter
Are the dual basket ones worth the extra cash or do they not go on sale as much as the standard ones?

I have spent a lot of time testing these units and I am very satisfied with how they perform. For a small apartment, you should be methodical about the footprint before buying.
- Ninja AF101 Air Fryer 4-Quart Capacity: This works well for two people. It usually sees the best Black Friday discounts and is very easy to tuck away in a cupboard.
- Ninja Foodi 8-in-1 Digital Air Fry Oven SP101: I am quite happy with this because it flips up to save counter space when you are not cooking. It handles wings and frozen snacks perfectly.
- Ninja Foodi 6-in-1 8-qt. 2-Basket Air Fryer DZ201: While useful, it is likely too bulky for a tiny kitchen and the price tag stays higher. I have had no complaints using the smaller models for quick meals. Honestly, the standard units go on sale way more often than the dual basket versions. Just stick to the compact ones and you will be happy...

Unfortunately, the dual basket units are quite disappointing for smaller layouts. They occupy significant counter space and the heating consistency isnt as good as expected. Focus on these single basket options instead:
- Ninja AF161 Max XL Air Fryer 5.5-Quart: Excellent capacity and usually drops below $130.
- Ninja SF301 Speedi Rapid Cooker & Air Fryer 6-Quart: Versatile but footprint remains manageable. Dual models rarely see the same deep discounts anyway.
