Love i
Most people agree this is a game changer. Apparently it does other stuff besides top notch chips!! Love the pressure cooker as well. Cleaning is a bit of a pain.
Delicious food
I was a bit scared at the beginning when l realised there are 2 lids. I cooked chicken, potatoes and greens once, a spinach puffed pastry and a very delicious beef and mushroom stroganoff. Very versatile, once you understand how works, you will never use the oven anymore. The only thing what l don’t like about is the plug cable being to short, l needed an extension to plug it in to the socket.
Good product but not super durable
Have used mine at least a couple of times every week in the 2,5 years I’ve had it and it has done really well. I’ve slow cooked stews, I’ve pressure cooked stews, I’ve made yogurt, air fried delicious wedges.
But two years after I bought it, the seal on the vent started failing, and the big pot insert (not the rack) started bowing in the bottom and it started complaining that I had to add the pot even though it was there.
It’s a great piece of kit, but I’m going to have to buy a new pot and a new lid.
Very good kitchen item
Very happy so far
Cooks , fast , cooking taste very good . So many options . We have not explored all what this cooker can do .
Very happy We recommend to buy i
The only problem I have had with this machine is for a pressure cooker recipe where it comes up to pressure and then says “Add water”. Short of depressurising it then adding water (which doesn’t appear to be necessary) this is a worrying message. I have no idea if the cooker stops cooking in these scenarios or you carry on and risk food like mother used to make.
Apart from that the recipes I have tried suggest I am better at cooking than I suspected, so I’ll take that as a win.
Not related directly to this product but the recipes in the instruction book are to show off the capabilities of the cooker. If only they had got Delia Smith to write their recipe book!
The other thing to note is that some of the ingredients have American names. You’ll need to Google what these are in English. It is well worth annotating the recipes you like so that you keep an American to English translation to hand.
You need this
I am a single chef and this has made my life at home so much easier and cheaper on fuel! It’s great for most food and frankly I don’t ever turn my stove or oven on so it’s a win for me
Really worth the money and best ever kitchen gadget I have ever bough
This is a great air fryer. My only gripe with it is that it is difficult to cook 2 things at once without them getting mixed up. For example if you got chips on the bottom you don’t want the juices from whatever is cooking on the rack above in with your chips.
I absolutely love my Ninja. I use it every day, for a roast dinner I pressure cook a chicken for 20 minutes then brush with oil and air fry for about 15-20 minutes, lovely roast chicken with crispy skin, then I pressure cook potatoes & veg for 3 minutes when finished remove the veg wrap in foil to keep warm or a quick zap in microwave to reheat when dishing out, spray potatoes with oil and air fry for 20 minutes, job done. Family are happy that I can make Scouse (stew) in 30 to 40 minutes instead of being on the hob for hours & hours. Everything can be cooked with none or very little oil and cuts cooking time in half. I am disabled & standing for even short periods can be a problem and buying this Ninja is an absolute god send for me, as usual brilliant price on Amazon site.
First off, I was on the fence about getting one of these for a while. The thing that sold me was that you can cook a full chicken in 30 minutes… a full chicken!
So we got it – it comes in a massive box, which is expected because it’s quite a big unit. It takes up roughly the same footprint as a microwave might, but it’s quite tall, so although it fits comfortably under our cupboard, you have to pull it out to use it. That’s probably for the best though, because depending on what you’re using it for you might want some space around it for venting.
It’s a very easy-to-use unit, and the little recipe book that comes with it has a little reference guide in the back that contains cooking instructions for so many common foods. Rice is a doddle in it, but it can do so much – I’m barely scratching the surface so far.
It really is a 10/10 and I couldn’t recommend it enough. We’ve barely turned on the oven since we got it!
I have been researching multi cookers and air fryers for a long while and finally decided on this one. My slow cooker broke so I went for this model, as it has slow cook function along with air crisper, dehydrator, grill, pressure cooking. i’ve almost forgotten that I have an oven and only use the oven rarely. The pressure cook function works well although at first, getting the lid on was a bit fiddly. The grey seal sometimes drops out but overall, I’ve used it for roast chicken 1.5kg 40 mins cook time, chips, sweet potato fries, dehydrated chicken and beef for the dogs, rice, and ratatouille from the recipe booklet. All were delicious
We LOVE our Ninja – all on the fact my neice told me it saved on electricity, washing up, flavours, versatility, and has such a broad choice of cooking abilitly you just couldn’t live with out it. AND its HEALTHY eating…
It promised a lot and we took out the pay in four monthly payments due to its cost. But never regreted buying this brilliant addition to our brand new kitchen – so much for getting a new hob and double oven!! We rarely use them because we LOVE our Ninja too and on our experience two more friends have bought theirs too. I’m waiting for our dehydration trays to arrive and skewers too – just to experiment even more with our Ninja. Great to clean and sharp controls that respond very quickly. You have to read the manual to get the best of this great piece of equipment and find some room in the corner of your kitchen. The slow cooker and pressure cooker are really great and roasts are fabulous in the Air Crisper …. its a piece of equipment that has its own degree!! WONDERFUL flavours are truly held in – we bought the Pinch of Nom recipe book and eat like a king and queen with hardly any change to our shopping and much more healthier too.
What can i say, she is great. I waited for a long time before i was ready for a Multi Cooker or let alone a separate air fryer until this multi-cooking gadget came along when the prices had come down a lot more.
Despite having many cooking functions, I only ever use it for Air Frying (not bothered with roast, bake, grill for which i prefer air fryer for better results or use the oven) and Pressure Cooker as I already own a separate Rice Cooker and Slow Cooker which with a good hindsight of not getting rid of them as they use much lower energy (= lower energy bills) and they can be used when the Ninja is busy cooking something else. I hardly use the saute function either as it’s easier to do any initial frying on a conventional stove first.
It is robust & well made from a Ninja brand. Be aware that it is big and heavy so takes up a lot of space on your kitchen worktop. I avoid air frying anything with a heavy marinade as they splutter all over the grill attached under the cover of the cooker….if you want to keep it mostly clean. Sure you can clean it but not right under.
Overall I love the pressure cooking and air frying best of all which the Ninja does beautifully and with such great ease.
Bought my food Ninja over a year ago & have used it every day ever since.
The 6 litre version easily feed our family of 3.
The pressure cooker function is brilliant. Producing stews and Ragu’s in minutes instead of hrs.
Air Fry produces healthy fried food to die for.
If you buy Fish & chips but when you get them home find they’re a bit cold & sweaty!
4 minutes in the frier @200oc. Perfect.
Bake. Roast. Grill. Saute I use every function.
This is not a gadget. We’re scrapping our gas oven because we don’t use it anymore.
There’s only one niggle. The inner pot’s non stick not stainless steel. Absolute pain in the arse to clean.
While on the subject of pots. Buy a spare one. That makes life easier. for example – Roast Chicken, Pressure cook on High 15mins. Air Fry to Crisp 10mins. Take out it out, pot n all, cover n rest.
Swap over bowl & air fry your Roast potatoes!
So impressed with the Ninja One Pot a month ago I also purchased a Instant Pot Duo to compare?
I wish I hadn’t. I only use the Ninja. Although the pot & baskets are compatible.
Firstly, I’m a single man, I live alone and I’m a bit of a foodie. Having researched a number of air-friers I decided on the Ninja mainly through feedback from friends.
I probably used my oven 5 times a week and hob 6 -7 days a week. Now I have switched both off at the socket and I only use the hob for fried eggs maybe once a fortnight, as the Ninja isn’t that good at cooking eggs.
It’s a revelation, honestly. Being able to cook a perfect sunday dinner in less than an hour. Using the juices from the meat to steam the veg is marvelous. Use the juices to make gravy means virtually no waste at all.
So far I’ve used the pressure cooker, steam, air-fry, grill and slow cook functions and they all work perfectly. It makes amazing toasted sandwiches, jacket potatoes. Steaks cooked to perfection, joints of meat can be pressure cooked for 10 – 15 minutes and finished off with air crisp with roast potatoes, then steam the veg. Sausages and bacon cook beautifully and with 2 different heat settings for slow cooking you can time hotpots or cheaper cuts of meat to perfection.
Can’t recommend it enough. However, you ned to commit to using it instead of your hob and oven and you’ll see the savings in electricity use and enjoy better flavours
I deliberated for ages before deciding to go for it and buy this item. I needn’t have worried, it is absolutely brilliant and I’m loving it!!! I did also buy the UK/European cook book at the same time, which I’m very glad I did as otherwise I might have taken a lot longer to try different things. I’ve only had it a short while and have achieved wonderful results at the first attempt, e.g. roast chicken, chips, beef, roast potatoes, a beef casserole, shepherd’s pie – to name but a few. I haven’t yet used all the functions, but look forward to trying them. I find it so easy to clean and it really saves me so much time, not to mention energy as I’m turning my main cooker on much less than I did. I’m lucky I have a large, deep cupboard that can house it and I combined buying it with disposing of 2 slow cookers and my air fryer. I was sad to see the slow cookers go as I was quite attached to them & a fan of this way of cooking, but the Ninja Foodi does just as good a job. If you’re debating this purchase, just do it & I’m sure you won’t regret it.
I’m writing this having used it for a couple of weeks, so early days yet, but it has been put to good use. Having used Tefal Actifryer’s for many years, I thought this time I’d take a plunge on something different. A major attraction of this unit is the versatility through multiple cooking modes.
Advantages:
+Works extremely well
+Can replace several gadgets in one (pressure cooker, air fryer, slow cooker, dehydrator etc.)
+Build quality seems very good – looks built to last
+Has been easy to keep clean thus far – internal pots etc. easy to remove and clean.
+Accessories readily available – spare cooking pots, replacement parts etc.
Disadvantages:
-Need somewhere separate to store the accessories like the pressure cooking lid and rack
-Quite large and heavy, about 10 kg, so not easy for some to move around
-Air fryer usually needs some manual shaking/moving around of food during cooking when using it with larger amounts, to get evenly cooked food
-Can’t be used under kitchen units, at least if you don’t want to ruin them!
-Rather expensive and complicated if you don’t need the multi-functions (you could get a much cheaper air fryer for example, if that was all you wanted to use).
-Far from silent (but much quieter than a Tefal Actifryer)
The air fryer element of it is probably what I’ve used most. For oven chips and things like chicken nuggets, it works great – the powerful fan moves the air around to create evenly browned food with a nice crispy fried-like outside. I’ve tried chips from raw potatoes and these worked less well (still OK) but there is plenty of room for experimentation with cooking time, temperature, potato variety etc. As mentioned, it benefits from the occasional shake up to move things around in this mode, particularly when cooking larger quantities. A definite advantage of not having a “stirrer” like the Actifry models is that more delicate foods can be cooked in it without breaking up.
The pressure cooker is good too. You can knock up a nice tender beef stew in about an hour and it tastes like its been slow cooked. A chilli or bolognese can be done from scratch in about 20 minutes. The built in saute/sear function allows you to do it all in one pot – brown the meat, and anything like garlic, onions and spices in the pot on the saute mode, then add liquid and fit the pressure lid to do the remainder of the cooking. You can quickly depressurise by opening the steam valve, which allows you to add ingredients that need less cooking later in the process. Cooking like this really seems to lock in the flavour.
It features an oven type mode and you can cook for example, a whole chicken in it, although I have not put this to the test yet. It heats up fast so I’m sure is more efficient than using a full sized oven. Overall I’m very happy with the item and would recommend it.
This unit has many useful features. Having looked on you tube for ideas you are better just using common sense. The big advantage once you establish the mode of cooking as well as the temperature and time, a repeat of the operation is so easy, be it chips and things for kiddies to a roast chicken. Absolutely brilliant. The only minor negative is the handbook of recipes and guidance is in micro print a improved size of print would be very helpful. The internet has many sites which are helpful up to a point as they are mainly American and temperature guides are in Fahrenheit! The recipe principles are still the same. Bacon looped over the inverted rack is great after 9 mins on 200C and crisp and dry. A good cleaning tip for when cooking is completed, put the wire rack upside down in the bowl add drop or two washing up liquid then add 1 litre or so of water to cover the wire rack and shut the lid with the machine off. The residual heat will get the soapy water very hot and clean both the bowl and the wire rack while you eat. After 20 mins or so remove bowl and rinse out the residues. Two other issues to consider is the size of the machine it is not small and the separate pressure cooking lid has to be stored as does the crisper or wire rack. The other major consideration is where to use it, do not use it close to over bench cupboards etc, it generates steam and heat which exits from the top and could over time damage the cupboard facing etc. In use it needs to be ideally in clear open space not under cupboards.
The setting of operations is very simple with a rotating knob to select and then push in centre to start.
A very clever and useful addition to any kitchen which has the space to accommodate it.
I have had this two weeks now and have made many bacon sandwiches, toasties, roast chicken, jacket potatoes garlic bread etc. They say if you can do it in a conventional oven you can do it in this Ninja. I am beginning to believe it.
Have to say that I am really pleased with the Ninja Foodi. I have had a Philips Air Fryer for a couple of years and found that really useful though, despite what the makers say, it was a little difficult to clean. I have seen adverts for the Ninja Foodi and decided to splash out on one.
I have yet to explore all the features but I have used the pressure cooker option to make soup and the steam option to cook some vegetables and they worked really well. I have also used the air crisper to cook hand made potato wedges as well as frozen chops and fish fillets. All the things cooked using the crisper were excellent and so much quicker than using my oven – because the Foodi is that much smaller it warms up quicker and also cooks quicker.
It is also very easy to clean – the man bowl is non stick and cleaning is a doddle. The air fryer basket is also non stick and is again easy to clean. I really like the fact that the device that ensures that the hot fat laden air circulates around the cooking food is actually a plastic four bladed widget that clips onto the bottom of the basket. It unclips quickly and so cleaning it and the basket separately is a doddle and there are no traps for the grease to linger and then burn on when you use the crisper the next time.
The summary of my experience so far – this was an excellent purchase and I look forward to exploring its features and cooking more and more things in it.
It goes without saying that I have sold the Philips Air Fryer as it was totally redundant – very useful but now surplus to requirements 🙂
This makes a good roast chicken. Initial steam (15-20 Min)) / pressure cooking then swap the lid and (12 min) crisp it up. A bit convoluted but it does work and produces a very moist bird with a crispy skin. Times are just a guide
Also makes OK chips, I tried two methods: Steam then crisp (5 + 20 min), (a bit like the chicken) and alternatively just crisp (25min) There was no advantage to the steam step so don’t bother. For roast potatoes I guess the steam would help. But you must dry them before oiling and crisping.
Back to chips. I was using less than best potatoes and had cut them fairly large (chunky) The irritating thing about chips is that they take longer than a chicken to get to the table as you must pre soak the chips for an hour. This has the advantage that old tattys firm up again but there is the time penalty.
The other variable is the oil you use. After drying the soaked chips with a tea towel they are popped into a plastic bag for oiling. Just throw a small amount of oil into the bag and shake it around until they are coated. I tried olive oil and sesame. Sesame seemed to be the better oil but there are many other oils out there, just be aware that you are heating the oil to 200C so don’t use a delicate and easily burnt/denatured oil.
Every 8 minutes or so you need to open the crisping lid and move the chips around, I used a wooden spoon and closed the lid again. After all that the chips are crispy on the outside and moist in the middle. My dieting other says they are fine.
Huge and noisy, yes it is. It throws out heat and/or steam. To open the lid you need a lot of headroom. To release the steam lid I used an old kitchen roll tube to direct the steam upward, protected my fingers whilst controlling the release rate.
Obviously this machine can make a vast range of foods, they claim yogurt too. it is very solid and quite heavy, you need plenty of space to use it and store it. But it does replace an oven, an air drier, pressure cooker, steamer, grill etc…
