I got the $70 refurb version of this back in October. I like it more than the Instant Pot even though it is bulkier and the interface looks 10 years out of date. Bigger diameter than the IP, the controls are simpler (just time and temperature while the IP has all the stupid presets), and the air fryer works good enough.
Bought one last time. It’s huge. Used it once and now it (and the second lid and the various parts that go inside) are sitting on my dining room floor.
@Kyeh@tweezak The size is honestly the main reason I haven’t bought one of these. But I think there is a bigger one which is often sold here. This « only » lists width (diameter?) 14 inches. I know the air fry lid makes it seem a bit bulkier overall though.
This Ninja Foodiis the best thing since sliced bread, but… this monstrosity has to stay on my counter because it is sooo heavy. My main love of this appliance is to make baked chicken. So if you like nicely browned, crispy-skinned, truly moist chicken (and you have the counter space), this is the appliance for you. You won’t be disappointed. PS, it does a whole bunch of other stuff, but the chicken is the biggest seller in my book!
I got one of these when it was on here sometime last year. It’s fantastic, but yes, it is huge. I’d still recommend it as long as you have the counter or storage space to spare. It’s extremely useful.
Has anyone air fried in conjunction with pressure cooking? Can food, especially meat, be first air-fried and then pressure-cooked (or the other way around) so that it comes out fork falling-apart soft but still browned?
@Kyeh Thanks for the good info. However, what I meant was to use both pressure cooking and air frying for the same roast so that you get the tenderness that results from pressure cooking with the browning and crisping of air frying.
@werekong Yes! Usually pressure cook first and then crisp it at the end. Makes a delicious “rotisserie” chicken or a roast with a lovely crispy exterior. I got one of these as a gift and I was worried it was just going to take up space, but we use it daily. Best of all worlds. It is honking huge tho.
@lissadelsol@werekong I looked up recipes and they say you can do it with chicken breasts too. It will be worth it for chicken alone. I hope. (It’s too late to cancel my order.)
I’ve pressure cooked FROZEN and thawed meat then crisped it with the air fry function. It’s amazing. Just the fact that I can go from solid frozen pork roast to ready to eat super moist roast in about an hour (depending on size, I do~22 minutes per lb) is so convenient and everyone loves it. And as mentioned in a higher up comment, you can do the same with frozen chicken, after the pressure cook it will crisp up like no body’s business with the air fry. I’ve owned 3 of these types of machines, two purchased on meh, this is my absolute favorite and worth the space it needs.
I made a tendercrisp thing with potatoes on the bottom and chicken on the top from the recipe book. It was really good. I can see eating it weekly. Now I need to get rid of all my other appliances.

This is perfect for Fryday!
@yakkoTDI Too bad it’s Another Manic Monday
This is way too large for my countertop. Pffft.
No Bluetooth? No app? How are we supposed to fiddle with it if it doesn’t have an app and Bluetooth? These things are mandatory now!
I always thought Ninjas could kill you in multiple silent ways. This doesn’t look silent.
@hchavers Unless you choose to have it prepare foods which are bad for your blood pressure. Now that’s a silent killer.

I wish it were a little easier to clean, But I use it often.
Can it cook rice?
@psantora Yes.

@tweezak Did you get this one or the 8 quart one?
@Kyeh @tweezak The size is honestly the main reason I haven’t bought one of these. But I think there is a bigger one which is often sold here. This « only » lists width (diameter?) 14 inches. I know the air fry lid makes it seem a bit bulkier overall though.
@pmarin @tweezak It is large, especially with the fryer lid open. The 8 qt. one is the same diameter, just taller.

@Lynnerizer Ooo, beautiful giphy, although no clue what it has to do with that phrase.
Just got to say, I have on of these are use it many times per week. I love it.

I’ve had one of these for a couple of years and love it. It’s so versatile that I use it almost every day.

@werekong I’ve used the sear/sauté function first to brown things, but evidently you can do it with the air fryer too: https://www.mommyhatescooking.com/ninja-foodi-beef-roast-air-fryer-recipe

@sammydog01 And I did a whole chicken and also rice with the pot in pot method. I’m loving this thing.
Coming back to comment on this:
This thing has been a solid workhorse for the last few months. If you are on the fence about it, get one.
The folding lid hasn’t been as big of an issue as I feared and the auxiliary functions(like yogurt) work well.
