There is much to love about the Ninja Brand of Appliances. I thoroughly enjoy their quality and durability.This has been on my wish list for quite some time as I bought it as a gift for my Aunt and uncle last Christmas. Since then, I have been drooling to own one. Well, I do now and it was worth the weight and the money spent.Air Frying has taken over, and besides the energy savings from not having to heat up your oven as often, the flavor you get when air frying is also unbeatable.I own a Ninja Foodi 12-in-1 1 and it has been a great air fryer, steamer, pressure cooker, you name it. One of my gripes was that as I use the Air Fry function far more often than any other, it was a lot to clean after each use. It has a big inside metal bowl and an air fry insert. The Ninja foodi weighs a lot, and I keep it in one of the corners on the counter in my kitchen. For every use, I would have to pull it out and leave it out to cook, before cleaning and putting it back.With this machine, that is a thing of the past. The machine itself is stationary. No need to haul out the whole unit like before. It lives in the same place as my Ninja Foodi and now, all I have to do it pull out one or both, depending on what I am cooking, food trays.I love that you can cook two different things at the same time, with two different temperatures and settings. I love the smart finish technology and find that ultra-convenient for putting it in and walking away. This machine has received a lot of use since I purchased it and overall I am thrilled to finally own one.Here is one thing to consider, which I hadn't. With the Ninja Foodi, things cooked faster. This makes sense to me, because it is a more powerful machine and had only one chamber. So French Fries would take about 18 - 20 minutes depending on the cut in the Ninja Foodi. In this machine, they take about 25 - 27 minutes. Perhaps 24 - 26 if only cooking fries in one compartment.Other than that, I am extremely happy with this product. I would definitely recommend the 8qt or 10 qt for families as you can fit a lot of food in there. Also, check out the silicone liners, they help with keeping this thing spotless.
