Ninja Foodi 9-in-1 Multi Cooker, 6L with 9 Cooking Functions, Pressure Cook, Air Fry, Slow Cook, Grill and more, Brushed Steel & Black, OP350UK

Bought the Ninja 9 in 1 to replace my small air fryer & cracked slow cooker. Best move! I’ve used it tons in 4 weeks of having it: everything from soups, quickly reheating quiches or cooking pasta in minutes to cooking a meal like perfect lamb chops with mashed potatoes! It’s a great time saver too. I rate it highly because: - simple to use - saves time esp pressure cooking for the first part of the recipe and finishing off with crisping by the air fryer (chef’s kiss for this!) - great functionality so it’s a space saver - no need for lots of kitchen gadgets on your worktops - easy to clean parts - solid & well made - instructions & recipe book are well written & easy to follow. One minor point: the recipe book doesn’t cover how to cook one everyday staple, pasta (except as part of a recipe where penne is cooked in the sauce, so not useful to cook pasta on its own/different types of pasta). However, I found plenty of guides from Internet chefs which cover this!

Used twice now and it's a great cooker. Interface is simple to use, the pressure lid is easy to clean and it builds pressure quickly for a fast cook. The non-stick pan is very good quality and also easy to clean.

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.

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.

Good product, pressure cooks lamb perfectly in just 25 mins! I had no issues using it, and I switched to using it daily instead of any pots and pans! Very quick clean and multifunctional, with high durability. Heats up quite quickly, and is big enough for a family of 5. Only issue would be that the wire is a little bit short.

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.

Bought this back in 2021 and it’s probably one of the most used appliances in my kitchen. I originally got it for pressure cooking and air frying, but over time I ended up using it for all sorts of meals — slow cooking, rice, chicken, chips, stews, and even reheating leftovers. What I like most is how much time it saves. Pressure cooking things like stews or tougher cuts of meat is much quicker than using the oven or hob, and the air fryer function crisps food up really well without needing loads of oil. It also feels solid and reliable considering how long I’ve had it. After years of regular use it’s still working properly, which honestly says a lot for kitchen appliances these days. The downside is that it’s quite large and takes up a decent amount of counter space. There’s also a bit of a learning curve at the beginning because there are so many cooking modes and settings. Cleaning the lid area can sometimes be awkward too. Still, once you get used to it, it becomes one of those appliances you end up relying on all the time. Definitely one of the better kitchen purchases I’ve made.

2 months later and I love this machine however you definitely need plenty of work space and the ability to use this under a cooker hood for ventilation. The lead is short but I can manage just to move it under the hood. Pressure cooker excellent but sometimes you have to turn the top on and off to effect a satisfactory seal. Not a problem as almost immediately you can see steam escaping which indicates not a proper seal. Ask your self what do I need my ninja for before buying then you will have the machine that suits your purpose. Any pressure cooking option will require a top lid hence the requirement for space above the machine to open the lid. It’s beautifully made and incredibly value. Mine is a 6 litre big enough for a medium size chicken. The cookbook is of little value as clearly not tested by the writer. Baked potatoes in 8 minutes absolutely impossible! Part microwave 7 minutes and 7 air fryer at 210 for 7. Wedges soak potato dry then a tbs of corn flour and your selection of salt pepper garlic powder paprika whatever lastly 2 tbs olive oil. Air fry about 25 minutes but always turning every 5 minutes and the result outstanding. I suggest Amazon as you can trial for 30 days first so nothing to lose. Hope this helps someone

Best thing I bought this year and making meals now is more enjoyable Also comes with recipes 😊

This doesn't suit UAE as some of functionalities were not working and supplier is not cooperative too
