There was a problem filtering reviews right now. Please try again later.
Physical size of the unit (external): The unit it self is large, the crisping lid being always attached is a bit annoying but I understand way they had to do it. I does need to be pulled out from under the cabinet to open. It is best to be used on the island or table where no upper cabinets are present.
Physical size of the unit (internal): The Instant-pot part is great, the 8 qt is nice and big. It's likely more than I really need, but nice just in case. The air fryer part is still not as big as I would like but it works for our family.
Functions: Pressure cooker/Steamer/rice cooker/dehydrator/Air fryer (You need an air fryer) This thing does it all, and it does it all very well. I often find myself wanting to use it for too many things at one time. The buttons are easy to use and the screen is easy to understand. No funky colored lights or weird settings. No multiple button presses to cycle through settings, etc. Very well done.
Finishes (Exterior): It's sexy looking, but the black plastic shows scratches, so be very careful. Buttons seem solid. I'm hoping there is a lot of life in this machine.
Finishes (Interior): Again seems to be made very well. They pot seems to be a pretty thick ceramic coating, but again for the longevity of the product I'd suggest using plastic everything! or silicone coated utensils.
Features:
Pressure cooker: Great!
Steamer: Great!
Rice Cooker: Great!
Dehydrator: I haven't used it yet, but I'm assuming that it will work just as great as all of the other features.
Air Fryer: This thing is amazing. We made the Carnitas the first night we had the machine and it was amazing! The recipe called for it be pressure cooked and then finished off with the air fryer. It was amazing! The problem I've had in the past with pressure cookers that the food lacks texture. No crisp on the skin. The Foodi solves this! The pork browned up and char'ed the tips perfectly.
Overall: It's not perfect, it's a little big, a little chunky, a little loud, but in features and function it's absolutely amazing!!!!! I can't explain enough why this thing is so great. Just as a simple example, my son wanted "Dino nuggets" for dinner the other night and we typically cook them in the oven, they take about 30 minutes to pre-heat the oven and cook. I threw them in the Foodi and 12 minutes later they were done and crispy all of the way around. I tasted one and it was actually really good! My son (5 y/o) said I have to cook them like that for now on.
THE GOOD: this thing is absolutely as advertised!! It does what they say it does... I have almost never use the oven anymore. It's easy to use... however, I did reference quite a bit of YouTube videos to be sure o was actually doing everything right. My food comes out AMAZING.. I've cooked chicken wings from FROZEN!!!... Cinnamon rolls with no burnt bottoms **I know I'm just as shocked** ... french fries, spare ribs , even STEAK!!! all amazing..
It comes with just about everything you will need but if you don't get the upgrades ..be sure to invest in silicone tongs and holders.
THE BAD: IT IS HUGE!!! it takes up a pretty large amount of counter space and is not the easiest thing to store ... I had to remove other appliances to let this have a full time home on my counter.... I usually wash it up & leave the inserts inside it until I use it again... which is pretty much daily.... the air crisper lid is permanently attached so keep that in mind.... you will need to find a way to store the detached pressure cooking lid.. which is pretty big.. other than the size and the plug not being as long as I'd like... I have no other issues with it ....I should mention however the cleaning is easy but... I really get annoyed cleaning they little bottom piece that raises the crisper basket after cooking chicken... it gets pretty gross... but other than that its fairly easy and also dishwasher safe... I just never actually dishwasher it because to me I want every nook & cranny to be super clean.. but that's just my OCD.. you do what is easier for you!
There is no reason really not to BUY this thing ... I swear it was the best purchase I made this year in regards to appliances!!! PRESS BUY!!! you will not regret it !!!
Great news!
Received new pressure lid, set the Ninja Foodi up to poach 2 eggs for 3 min using the Steam setting with the pressure vent open. WORKED PERFECTLY. Eggs came out perfectly poached!
The previous pressure lid had some type of defect where the vent valve would not sit correctly when moved to the open/release position, so it didnt fully open the vent. This caused pressure to build up and raise the red button (which locks and further seals the lid). Since the pressure increased that much, the temp inside also increased, thus overcooking the eggs.
The new lid doesn't have this problem, and so the red button does not pop up when steaming with the vent open, and the eggs poached perfectly. Couldn't be happier with the results
For all it can do, and do well, this device is a must have imho.
ORIGINAL REVIEW:
Generally loving it. It's great to get that oven finished look and texture after pressure cooking meatloaf! This comes up to pressure quickly, and seems to cook faster than my Power Pressurecooker XL.
The only issue I'm having is with the Steaming function. You're supposed to leave the vent in the open position so it actually doesn't come up to pressure to lock the lid (like it would in pressure cooking mode with the vent closed). However, sometimes it acts as though it is in pressure cooking mode and comes up to pressure, even with the vent fully open, and locks the lid. (See pictures.)
Obviously, this can overcook delicate foods like poached eggs (They turned out hard boiled.) Not sure if the lid or the device itself is the problem.
Plan to try another one to see if it does the same thing.
