"my mom gave me a ninja foodie for Christmas that does air frying pressure cooking and slow cooking. The thing slaps."
"It doubles as a pressure cooker so can braise and cook brisket, casseroles, crispy chicken, etc."

"I will never give up my ninja foodi as long as spare parts exist, since they do not make it anymore!"
"I’ve had mine for years and I have no problems washing it up after use and there’s no rust... ... Mine has a separate lid for slow cooking/pressure cooking and the release valve detaches."

BitchyFromTheBlock 1.0I have the ninja 3 in 1 and I love it
Adventurous-Bee-5477 0.4Yeah since limiting to using points the oven like product from ninja i can get would be the ninja combination 14 in 1. Has pizza option but again is it big enough and also want it to be able to cook wings good. Its just airfryers seem good as an all rounder as u. can shake fries, wings etc in basket.. I think if I have to and maybe a good thing finance wise long term is just cook half a large pizza if I can't do a whole. Thanks tho for the suggestion im looking at reviews and the ninja combi maybe worth a consideration at least. It comes with a proper pizza tray...and does chips etc as good as air fryers. .. its just a bit large (well yeah it fits a large pizza), but apparently gets hot a bit underneath unlike airfryers. As I rent I have to be mindful I don't damage the benchtop. Airfryers seem to be raised so let air vebtilate underneath it.
JenninMiami 0.4I have a Ninja Foodi 14 in 1 and I LOVE IT! It has an air fryer, slow cooker, pressure cooker, food dehydrator etc! Edit: the one I have has 2 lids, and air fryer basket too.
Thinks the exact one I have! I’ve been using these since like 2017, I think? It’s been a long time! I upgraded to the all in one in 2020 and I can’t imagine my life without it. My daughter keeps her 6 qt in her kitchen cabinet, but my cabinets are totally small because I have the 8qt one. It does take up some space, but it’s my most used kitchen item - I use it more than my oven/stove! Edit: Have to mention: since I got this machine, I’ve made our family’s thanksgiving turkey in it every year and it’s a HIT!
Potential-Athlete325 0.4Just got a Ninja Combi 14 in 1 as I don’t have an oven. Combi ovens are amazing and are used widely in commercial cooking. Basically they use water to steam as well as bake and that’s what this little device does. It is really power efficient and a lot of Americans are installing them in RVs.
Ok-Entertainment5045 0.0Ninja foodi, air fryer, toaster over all in one. We use this almost every day at home. Works great in the camper too.
sweetwolf86 0.0Get one of those multi-cooker things. I started with a cheap air fryer and couldn't wait for ot to die so I could upgrade. Air fryer/pressure cooker/dehydrator/slow cooker it does it all and I use it almost daily. I have a Ninja but a lot of people swear by Instapot
krash666 0.0I got the ninja foodi pressure cooker and air fryer combo a few years ago and it quickly became the most used appliance in the house. I initially had thought that it too was a glorified convection oven but got it anyway because I was looking for a pressure cooker. The key difference is that it can really get the air moving, eliminating steam pockets that prevent crisping. It only takes 2 minutes to preheat. And since it doubles as a pot, it also does stews. The big hack for me is that I can cook and brown a large batch of minced meat on both sides by first frying the bottom with the saute mode till I get browning, then following it up with 5 mins of air frying to brown the top. all in the same pot.
HoboArmyofOne 0.0Yeah I got a ninja that's the pressure cooker/air fryer 2 in 1 machine and I love it. It air frys really well and the pressure cooker is better than I thought it would be. I use it quite a bit. You just have to preheat it for the air fryer but it only takes a few minutes. It's very consistent so you get a good feel for how long you need to heat stuff
apocalyptimaniac 0.0We have a Ninja Foodi combo air fryer/pressure cooker and it is incredibly versatile. From the best reheated French fries to a rack of ribs in one hour, the appliance is easy to use and has almost daily use. I bought liners on Amazon to reduce the amount of cleaning needed when used for simple air fryer functions. Like others have said, I don't have to use the oven on these hot summer days. I've been looking into replacing our microwave with one that has air fryer functions built in
caetrina 0.0I love mine and use it daily. I even bought a ninja combi because I wanted more options lol. I like the ninja foodi because it's also a pressure cooker, and makes perfect rice and hard boiled eggs. I use it for bagels/waffles/toast daily, and usually reheat things in it. If you make frozen foods like fries and chicken nugs, it's good for that, and if you like roasted veggies, it's perfect for that too. My oven has an air fry function, but it doesn't work as well as a standalone one.
