Had an AF101 for a little over a year, and then got a second brand-new one; their mother now has the first, which survived an apartment fire.
Has plugged their AF101 into the same outlet daily for over a year with no issues.
Very happy with their Ninja 4-qt air fryer after a year: it works well, is easy to clean and still looks brand new thanks to its ceramic nonstick coating.
Their AF101 has worked perfectly for two years, and their mother liked it so much she bought the same model.
