Where these two actually differ

  • We flag Thermal fracture or stress in glass cooking vessel, Plastic housing off-gassing (VOCs and formaldehyde) and Electrical hazard or heating element degradation on the Ninja and not on the Ninja.
  • We flag PTFE fume inhalation risk (if coating is Teflon-based), Nonstick coating degradation and flaking and Fragmentation or chemical leaching from the nonstick basket at end of life on the Ninja and not on the Ninja.
  • The Ninja is Glass cooking vessel with stainless steel and plastic components where the Ninja is Nonstick-coated basket; composition unspecified by Ninja, which is most of the difference in these two grades.
  • The gap is 60 points, wide enough that this is not a close call, and the Ninja is the one to buy.
  • We are less certain about the Ninja grade, at 42% confidence against 75%, because it discloses less.
