"It's MUCH easier to clean non stick surfaces (1 minute after each use). ... Takes me 1 minute to clean my Cosori with a nylon brush and Dawn."
"Clean up is a snap all it takes is a little bit of your dish detergent I use Dawn and three tablespoons of baking soda made into a small little paste you cover the inside you cover the. Inside in the rack with it you wait 15 minutes rinse it well with warm water paper towel dry it and it's done."
"both baskets go in the dishwasher, which makes cleanup way easier"

"Now all I use is my air fryer, microwave for frozen veggies and rice cooker. ... I like everything to be as simple as possible, so set it and forget it. Haven't used my stove top or oven since I got the ninja in 2022."
"I think we have the ninja foodie 10 in 1 oven thing and we've only used our real oven like twice since we got it and that was entirely because the pizza was too big. ... There's something great about being like "yes, cook my burrito at 400 for 29 minutes and then shut off" that makes it so useful. Well setup food and not worry at all about it being done because it always is. ... But really being able to setup the oven and just let the timer handle it is the bees knees."
"probably use it for 80% of our meals ... it is great"

"not worth it for the sheer size of the Foodi. It's a beast and very heavy. ... Yeah this is the same reason I don't really use my Foodi."
"Was bulk and weight that chased me away from self inflators years ago. ... I find the selfinflating foam so comfortable, more so than than air mats, but it's 790 grams, very bulky and just 3.8r. Can't justify it."
"that thing is so bulky and sits in the cabinet below the counter, I want to keep keep one on the counter…."

"Perfect for 2, troublesome for 3."
"If you're cooking for more than two people, I would get an eight quart."
"I often have to stage food and keep stuff warm"
I've had a ninja foodi grill one for years and it's still good. I will keep it for many more years, possibly decades. Got it on eBay for much less than retail and it shipped from the manufacturer, somehow. I think $150? Well worth it. I use wax paper liners in it to make cleanup easier, also worth it.
r/BuyItForLife • The Best Air Fryer to Buy Now? ->I have I think this exact one although I got it many years ago so it might be different now https://www.walmart.com/ip/Ninja-Foodi-4-in-1-Indoor-Grill-with-4-qt-Air-Fryer-Roast-Bake-and-Cyclonic-Grilling-Technology-Black-Stainless-AG300/882305312 It doesn't get too hot on the outside and goes up to 500F in grill mode. It's pretty big at least it would suit a family of 4.
r/BuyItForLife • Looking for Convection Oven / Air Fryer with some specific features ->I have the Ninja air fryer grill. It cooks steaks great. Comes with a grill plate and the temp goes up to 525, if I remember correctly. I just cooked a ribeye and was perfect. Model is AG301
r/airfryer • Air fryer with basket or door for cooking steak? ->Given all the research you’ve already done, you’ve probably seen that giant comparison database of air fryers floating around Reddit [here, I bookmarked it](https://www.reddit.com/u/MaterialisticOcelot/s/AuYboNaNB6). It’s super handy if you want to line up the details down to the very last spec. I personally have the Ninja Foodi and really like it, but I wouldn’t really consider it a “budget” pick since it runs close to $200. That said, I do think you get what you pay for with these. I’d be careful about going under $50 on an appliance you expect to last.
r/cookingforbeginners • Best budget air fryer? ->Foodi pressure cooks just fine Depends. Any device with "air fry" mode is going to be a compromise compared to a real air fryer. Personally I find the Foodi's two lid system to be clunky and annoying to deal with. I pretty much just use my convection oven instead of the foodi. I use a stovetop pressure cooker myself. But I definitely wouldn't recommend the foodi for mainly pressure cooking because the air fryer lid is permanently attached. So that would be pretty much always in the way.
r/PressureCooking • Instant Pot vs Ninja Foodi vs Separate Air Fryer: Best for Pressure Cooking (Mostly) and Air Frying (Sometimes)? ->I’ve had mine for years can’t beat them
r/CasualIreland • Good people of Irish Reddit! Seeking recommendations for an air fryer ->I have two Ninja air fryers that don’t have teflon. A Foodi and Foodi 6 in 1 (it toasts, air fries, etc).
r/parrots • are ninja air fryers safe? ->I have the Ninja Foodie. It can grill, bake, dehydrate, roast, and air fry. Nine times out of ten, I will be using it especially in the summer when I don’t want to turn the oven on.
r/Cooking • Do you have an air fryer? Should I get one? ->I have a Ninja foodi and a Ninja toaster style air fryer. I love the Foodi for home fries and baking small cakes and as a rice cooker. I use it nearly daily. We got the toaster style one for toasting bread, for roasting vegetables, and baking small pizzas. Like every appliance, you have to consider your space and what you cook. For us, it's been great.
r/Cooking • What are your thoughts on Air Fryers? ->We have a Ninja Foodie - it bakes, toasts, broils, air-fries…
r/Cooking • Should I buy a microwave, toaster oven, or air fryer for my tiny kitchen? I can only pick one….. ->What you're speaking of aren't actual air fryers, because pretty much every air fryer doesn't have a top and bottom element. It wasn't until ninja ungraded their foodi GRILL I think in 2023 to have an element on the top and bottom. Which they have done for some of their products now, which none of them are an actual air fryer. Before they added the second element, what I said is the truth and is how they're operated with the functions. Any actual air fryer, how I said the functions work is how it operates. You're simply talking about a product that isn't an air fryer.
