Ratings & Reviews for Ninja Foodi Deluxe XL  8-Quart Programmable Electric Pressure Cooker

It's True! Good as Advertised

I didn't believe all of what the manufacturer said. But they didn't lie. The first dish we made was the whole chicken. It turned out better than Costco chicken. Moist and juicy inside, crispy outside. Even my grandson loved it. Since then we have tried a variety of recipes and all of them great. Pressure cooking with the ability to brown/crip is a game changer. We love it and use it 5 times a week now.

Defective lid?

Wife lied!!!

Wife said she bought it for herself, but hasn’t touched it yet!! I have whipped up a bunch of meals with it. I absolutely love it!! I’m just getting the times down on how long to cook things. I would suggest getting a note book and taking notes on things like, time to cook thick/thin bacon, how long to cook different size roast, how long to cook boiled eggs the we you like. This thing is the best thing my wife has ever bought for herself :)

Wouldn't vacation without it

I have the Ninja Foodi and the ninja grill. When we travel we take them with us we are able to rent a studio unit versus a one bedroom with a full kitchen because our ninjas are all we need for cooking

Fun

I started w/ an I pot. It’s the most used small appliance I own. I bought the Ninja to have the 8 qt. I wasn’t really sure what the air frier was. Super cool. I can take a whole frozen chicken pressure cook for 45 min. then use the air frier for 15 min. I got a lovely browned chicken looked and tasted like a rotisserie chicken. I’ve also used the yogurt and dehydrator. I use my Ninja foodi almost daily.

Awesome Cooker

We have cooked so many delicious things in our Foodi. It gets used almost daily. I have discovered cauliflower soup made with coconut milk that is always in our home. Recipes are easy and very low fat - weight loss is happening. I love this machine.

Amazing

I’ve had it for two weeks and it’s worth every penny I spent on it. I cooked hamburgers that were the best I’ve ever made! Last night made filet mignon kabobs and they were amazing!! Wish I had bought one sooner.

Good quality

The first thing was the up sell is a bit much so the original price is ok but when adding on the other stuff it is a bit pricey. No it is a big investment and not sure what was included in original offer and what I just spent extra on in the end. The pressure cooker is great and it is easy to clean up afterwards. They have two books but honestly seems that the majority of the stuff is in both books so either one works fine both is overkill. The warranty I believe is a must considering the price...

This is AMAZING!!!!

I made NY steaks in the Ninja Foodi and could not believe how fast and great they came out!!!! Evenly cooked all the way around!! Medium well!!

I absolutely love our Foodi!!

We stumbled onto the ninja Foodi about 6 months ago and it was a steep learning curve for the first 2 months. My poor family. Now I've gotten the hang of it and I absolutely love it for my family of 6! I can cook nearly anything in it. Even my husband likes using it. We're actually planning on remodeling our kitchen this year and I've been toying with removing the oven and just using the ninja collection.

Easy to use

I absolutely love this machine. I have not used any other method of cooking since I got my ninji foodi. Clean up is very easy due to nonstick surfaces. So happy I decided to order direct from ninji .

Just what you need and did not know it!

First I have to say when I took it out of the box I was so disappointed. Let me explain how a negative turned POSITIVE. I was disappointed the air fryer lid did not come off. Then I decided to give it a try anyway. Turns out to be a big positive when cooking. Lets say you are air frying some tater tots or French fries. Half way through you want to stir them. With this unit you just lift the top, unit pauses, you stir, and close. It automatically continues on. If you had a removable lid y...

Life saver

I purchased this about 6 weeks ago, at first I was hesitate to use it because it sounded to good to be true. One weekend, I took a deep breath and started using it. It was everything it said it was. I use it everyday, I'm not exaggerating, everyday. I have made whole frozen chicken, whole chicken, chicken wings, steak, not frozen french fries (several times) frozen shrimp, steamed vegetables, fish sticks, chicken patties, hamburgers, dehydrated, pears, apples, bananas, pineapple, watermelon ...

Everything cones out great

We are in our second week. It does everything they said and more. Meat comes out juicy and tender. The air crisper brownes the meat. We bought the 8-quart size. Like the demo said, you can down size what you put in a larger system, but, you can't upsize a smaller one.

Best kitchen appliance

We've had our Foodi for almost a year now. We absolutely love it. I very rarely use the oven anymore. It is so awesome in the summer not to have to heat up the entire kitchen for a meal. My very picky children have started trying AND liking everything I cook in it. My 10 year old enjoys helping cook now. The flavor that the foodi enhances is so much better than the oven or stovetop. I could go on and on about the quality and possibilities of the Foodi. I recommend it to everyone!

Love it

I got this for Christmas (I told my husband what to get) I also bought one for my daughter for Christmas. I love it! I have used it at least twice a week since I got it. He swore I wouldn't use it.

Excellent time saver

I bought this in Nov for myself. I threw away all other air friers, pressure cookers, grills, even sauté pans! This excels in prep time, cooking it does everything in one! Best investment and it’s a Ninja! I made my cousin do the same! She’s loves it more than me! Everything so easy and fast!

Not that great

So far I’m not impressed with my Ninja Foodi. The recipes in the cookbook that it comes with, are awful. I’m learning that you cannot cook ANYTHING in it, like it claims to do so.

Slow cooker just warm...

Received my Ninja deluxe for Christmas. Was so excited, until I decided to use slow cook option. I worked all day, frustrated, slow cooking option just warmed a bit. After 6 hrs, a raw roast!
