With this product with just the wife and i, it does 90+% of the things we cook. For the other 5-10% we bought a microwave that also does convection (but not as well as the Ninja!).

Only wish I'd gotten the DCT451 Model with the cooking thermometer. Didn't know it existed...

Buy an extra crumb tray (127SH400) so you can leave one in both the top and bottom for convenience. Also getting a non-stick air fry basket (XSKAFRYBSK). Probably unnecessary, but should be easier to clean, not that it the standard basket is that hard.
