Ninja - Foodi PossibleCooker Pro (OP300/OP400 Series)

I have the ninja 3 in 1 and I love it

I have the Foodi, the one that doesn't need a separate lid. I've had it for around 3 years I think. It's a big chonky machine, but I love it and recommend it to everyone. I use it more than the hob at this point! The modes I use the most are air frying, pressure cooking, sear/saute and bake. The stream to air fry mode is also great for making a whole chicken! My boyfriend has been using it when at my place and likes it so much he's going to replace the Instant Pot he has at his place with a Foodi because he wants an air fryer and it's much nicer to have it all in one. The one downside it has compared to a normal air fryer is that the basket is not very big, and it's also quite noisy compared to dedicated air fryers. Personally, the trade off is worth it for me. Happy to answer any more specific questions!

I have the ninja foodi pot and I love it. Can’t beat a great air fryer and a pressure cooker in one, plus all the other features. They discontinued them but places like Walmart still have some. I’ve used mine at least once a day if not 2 or 3 for 4 years. I love it so much I bought a backup last week, I don’t want to not have it.

The fans will eventually wear out, but the leader of the pack is definitely ninja. I’d go with the new dual side by side, but if you want a machine the will do more, find a ninja foodi pot. Amazon ones are better quality than the Walmart ones. They discontinued the pressure cooker/air fryer but I love mine.

Walmart still has the ninja foodi/pressure cooker combo. They’ve been discontinued but it’s still a solid device. We’ve cook in it everyday, multiple times a day, for 4 years. I have two other ninja air fryers and the combo is still my go to and most used. I bought a second one today as a backup since they’re not going to make them anymore, I don’t want to be without it. I did pick up the stainless steel replacement bowl a while ago (not oem) and I like it more than the original bowl.

We have the Ninja Foodi 9 in 1 that looks almost like a pizza oven and then folds up vertically to open up counter space. I love it. It fits a frozen pizza nicely. Ours is probably 2 years old, and we use it at least weekly, if not more often. I think they consider the new version of it as part of their "oven" line-up. It definitely has replaced us using our oven for small batches, especially with the fact that it heats up so fast because it's not huge.

We have one too. We use it pretty much on daily basis.

I haven't done a steak from frozen yet. However I love my NINJA foodi for frozen things. It has a pressure cooker function. I can take a frozen chicken from freezer to table in under an hour. It's about 15 minutes in the pressure to thaw and then roast function to finish. I was woried with steak it might be tough.

Ninja foodi, air fryer, toaster over all in one. We use this almost every day at home. Works great in the camper too.

yeah this don't go cheap as you will inevitably replace it when it breaks in 9 months. the foodi is good quality and you will find yourself using the other functions

If you’re in North America, there are air fryers that purport to run multiple baskets at the same time (ie: Ninja Dual). Our home power supply will not run both baskets at the same time at full heat; the user’s guide says you have to allow almost double the time if you want to use both baskets at once as the temperature won’t reach full heat. Evidently they do work at full speed in the UK. That being said… I also have a Ninja Foodi multicooker that does the whole slow cooker/pressure cooker/ air fryer thing in one unit. I’ve had four or five air fryers and that’s the one I’ve used the most because the multiple functions are useful for me. For just a dedicated air fryer, make sure it has enough physical space to cook the amount and kind of food you want. For example, french fries are best cooked in one layer. Many air fryers are not sized to cook enough fries to feed four people. Whichever air fryer you choose, you’ll need to peek in and toss/shake/shift your food two or three times during the cooking to get everything to cook evenly, so ensure it’s a convenient size, weight etc.

I recently upgraded air fryers from my old trusty ninja foodi (the pressure cooker combo) to a Instant Pot Vortex XL with the dual basket. its opened up a bunch in terms of useability & ease of use. However to do again I would of gone for the Foodi with the Flex Basket. Id give up the extra quart of capacity to get the flexability of that big basket for when I am doign something that doesnt fit well in the smaller side by side baskets.

I love mine and use it daily. I even bought a ninja combi because I wanted more options lol. I like the ninja foodi because it's also a pressure cooker, and makes perfect rice and hard boiled eggs. I use it for bagels/waffles/toast daily, and usually reheat things in it. If you make frozen foods like fries and chicken nugs, it's good for that, and if you like roasted veggies, it's perfect for that too. My oven has an air fry function, but it doesn't work as well as a standalone one.

Sadly I can't say I had the same experience with the Ninja Foodi (first one broke after two years, the second one not even one year). I really liked the air fryer pressure cooker combo but yeah, can\`t say I\`m too happy with the quality build (the cable going from the board to the lid through the hinge is a known failure point now).

Ninja with a pressure cooker, so does all round

We have a Ninja pressure cooker/air fryer combo. It works great.

We got a Ninja Foodi because it is an air fryer and pressure cooker. Probably better options if you only want the air fry option

We bought a ninja foodie back before they were a trend. Still use it weekly. It doubles as a pressure cooker so can braise and cook brisket, casseroles, crispy chicken, etc.

Ninja air fryer with pressure cooker could replace my entire kitchen and I’d be fine with it

As a single dude who lived in an apartment the air fryer was literally a game changer. If you want to minimize counter space in I’d recommend one the expensive yet versatile ones. my mom gave me a ninja foodie for Christmas that does air frying pressure cooking and slow cooking. The thing slaps. I air fried all my meat as it creates no smoke and the smell is minimal. The clean up is super easy

Hi, I use an air fryer/pressure cooker combo unit and make everything with it, except toast. I still use a cheap two slice toaster I got somewhere(I can’t remember) but it was cheap and get’s the job done, perfectly. I personally do not like those rack air fryers, I will never give up my ninja foodi as long as spare parts exist, since they do not make it anymore! Tl; dr - get the toaster!

Don't think you can make a stew in one unless you get the ninja all in one pressure cooker air fryer, but it's great for roasting bones before you put them in a pressure cooker.

I have a Ninja foodie which is an air fryer plus insta pot. It's a great space saver. While we don't use either option often, it's nice to have when we do want to use it

Yeah I got a ninja that's the pressure cooker/air fryer 2 in 1 machine and I love it. It air frys really well and the pressure cooker is better than I thought it would be. I use it quite a bit. You just have to preheat it for the air fryer but it only takes a few minutes. It's very consistent so you get a good feel for how long you need to heat stuff

Does it make a lot of smoke? When we were looking to replace our basket style air fryer we tried a KitchenAid oven and it was horrible, the whole house was full of smoke. We ended up returning it and getting a ceramic ninja.

That’s what I’m looking at, same model but bigger. How long have you had it? Do you like it? I also have ninja foodie with air fryer function and I am assuming the basket for air fryer is also non stick and we have used it forever with birds around and it was fine… but that thing is so bulky and sits in the cabinet below the counter, I want to keep keep one on the counter….I’m still nervous!

I’ve had mine for years can’t beat them

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.

Get a Ninja Foodie ,its an air fryer but all has a lot more functions. Slow cooker,pressure cooker ,grill.

Yeah they are brilliant and a much better option than an air fryer imo

I love my Ninja Foodie, not only is it a fantastic air fryer, it has so many other functions that I use

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.

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.

I have two Ninja air fryers that don’t have teflon. A Foodi and Foodi 6 in 1 (it toasts, air fries, etc).

the ninja foodi is awesome!

I had a Foodie for a few years until it stopped working. It was a great pressure cooker and a decent air fryer but I am much more satisfied with separate devices now.

Love my Nina foodi, aside from the size of it

We like our Ninja Foodie. It has a large counter footprint when in use, but folds up against the wall.

I have a Ninja Foodi air fryer that is still going strong after 5 yrs of usage and it is still geting use multiple times a week.

the question is what ypi are after,. most air fryers do work and from my experience mechanicals have a tendency to do better in certain things, here are a few I have, I have at least 4 brands in my home and would be doing a test soon of them: [Philips](https://s.shopee.ph/6psbzlCuSe): probably easiest to use in the mechanical setting, it has a button to remove the tray so you wont get burned, takes a abit of time to preheat, i alwatys wait 5 minutes para umabot ng temp, everything is manual, can handle a lot of things but due to it being manual, you have to do the calculations yourself. very easy to clean, good enough size that you can place anything inside, temp is adequate. trays easily removed. all in all, this one has lasted the longest. [Instant pot](https://s.shopee.ph/1qTw2Y1H7v): if you want something to remove the guesses, this is the one, daming kayang gawin, ive done sundried tomatoes, meals, whole chicken, this thing will tell you when preheating is done, it will tell you to switch the chicken upside down, it will tell you halos lahat, timer is good, malakas yn tunog to tell you you have to do this or that. ito naman cons nya, number 1, yn tray you need to remove it directly, di tulad ng iba. ano con is that rubber yn sa gilid nya pero parang tunog nagscratch pagninilgay mo pero overall its a master of all. [midea](https://s.shopee.ph/5q04noOHtg): mechanical as well quite cute, the temp controls are just dials, handles well, first time used had plastic smell, removed aftgter 2 times use, easy cleaning not digital, so you need to wait for preheating, i do 5 minutes, descent size not great [ninja foodi](https://s.shopee.ph/7V8In0Rlyt): probably the one one that can do grilling properly but dang it is expensive, lots of removable parts and good quality, takes a bit os space though, does grilling and airfrying well pero not that much sa iba, expensive affiliate link posted with pictures of the units. i have more air fryers at home. https://preview.redd.it/7y8mbik0g4zf1.png?width=3099&format=png&auto=webp&s=981d61c6389d836deddc9c2b09e6a78c9134175c

Ninja foodi is my holy grail. I’ve had it for 5 years. I do everything with it. I couldn’t recommend a better one. Super plus is you can remove the cooking basket and wash it. It’s not connected to plastic. Easy to clean. Lots of function. Pressure cooking, baking, dehydrating, slow cooker, air fryer. List goes on.

We have a ninja foodie, that I can’t use anymore. It’s mostly used for fries and chicken nuggets. We used to cook bacon in it and it was delicious. I am going to buy myself a small air fryer for fries and chicken nuggets. I like crispy nuggets and they do not get crispy in the oven. I really wanted a small ninja foodie but they don’t make them anymore.

Ninja foodi, you get an air fryer, pressure cooker, slow cooker, we use ours a lot. You can make soups, hot dishes, bake, broil, pressure cook. Can cook almost anything in it.

I like the Instant Pot much better. I got a Foodi as well, but am trying to resell it as I don't think it's as nice or useful. Plus the materials aren't as quality. The pressure cook option in my Foodi sometimes doesn't work whereas my 3 IPs always do and are really easy to clean. The Foodi has the Air Crisp option which is pretty nice, but 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. It's also very loud whereas my Instant Pot (I happen to have 3) are quiet as a mouse. For pressure cooking alone the Instant Pot brand beats Ninja out imo. I prefer the basic IP models, as they are really good at what they do, alas the Ninja does more. I like the air crisp option on my Foodi but I'm not sure that alone is worth it. Bacon and burgers are really good in it after pressure cooking but chicken is gross on that one I learned. Ninja just doesn't excel to me in pressure cooking as it sometimes doesn't come to pressure at all. I'm actually trying to sell mine after only using it a few times.

I haven't had much success in baking, my usual cookies were nice but a little greasy. We have a small tabletop oven / air fryer combo we use for baking and pizza, but the Ninja foodi is used every day.

I’ve had my Ninja Foodi for 4 years. Use it daily and it’s still fine.

I’ve had a Ninja Foodi for years. Usually more than £100 but think you can get manufacturer refurbs off of eBay for close to that price. It’s more than just an air fryer. It also has pressure cooker, sauté, roast, dehydrate as well as other functions I don’t use. Best use for me is for sausages, can get up in the morning, chuck them in there for 13 minutes and they’re done without having to tend to them. Also use the pressure cooker for curries, and you can brown the meat in there first before switching to pressure. Mrs even used it to dehydrate orange slices to make her own Christmas wreathes. We wouldn’t be without it.

I have this one too! Even without dishwasher its so easy to clean since its a non-stick bowl so a few gentle swipes makes it clean in like 3 seconds! I just cook, take out food, quick rinse and done! Easy-peasy! So convenient because you can cook other stuff in it like soups, roast, rice, even yogurt (i didnt get to yogurt part, too complicated😂)! Same gadget, less cointer space! I love my foodie!

Ninja foodie has all these options plus air fryer in case someone wants all in one to save counter space🙂. I do prefer air fryer to oven though, food just tastes better from air fryer😋

I don't have this one but I have a Ninja foodie that does air frying, and the fan is pretty loud. P.s. how was the pool party 🤣

Ninja Foodi does just fine

It’s amazing honestly I love it it has so many options, 2 racks, a light, half way turnover timer, tons of cooking options such as baking, roasting, broiling etc. it also doesn’t have PUFAS/ PFAS or whatever all that stuff everyone is concerned about. The top rack also doubles as a cooling rack. It’s a bit of a pain to clean but that’s the same thing with most air fryers since they need ventilation holes in the surfaces to effectively circulate the hot air. The window is nice to be able to see your food. It’s a pretty nice size, enough to put enough food for 2 adults and 2 kids. It also comes with a cool little laminated air frying guide that shows about 60 different foods and how long to cook them for, what temp etc. it’s definately better than your typical chef man and lower end fryers priced at this range but if you’re looking for something a bit nicer around $120 I recommend the ninja foodie.

I bought a Ninja Foodi on sale for $189 and it lasted 4 years until the lights wouldn't come on in it anymore. It still fried and toasted at least 2 times a day everyday though. So we bought the same model again since the lights are not replaceable. Not technically BIFL, but we think it is worth every penny and inch of counterspace it takes up.

The Ninja Foodi Air Fryer has a bake setting that I use all the time

I have a ninja foodie so it’s an air fryer, slow cooker, pressure cooker, and a few other things in one. Or at least it was till I set one of the lids on fire but that’s another story. I say go for it. Bonus- I can put it all in the dishwasher.

The air fryer is not replacing my microwave, but it makes cooking so much easier. And cleaning it is no biggie since i have a dishwasher. The one i have is the Ninja foodie which has a removable bowl. Lately i microwave my frozen rice and air fry my frozen and already cooked chicken that I previously made. It’s so darn good.

Had a PowerXL one that worked great for about 5 years of near daily use before it bit the dust last year. Got a Ninja Foodi to replace it and have been pretty happy with it. I really like that it folds away when not using it to save on counter space and that its big enough to make a meal for the whole family.

Get the ninja foodie. I live alone and it’s hands down the best thing in my kitchen. Cooks two different foods at different times and temperatures and finishes cooking at the same time. Would never go back to single cooking zone air fryer

I have a Ninja Foodi that has been my primary device for years, bought one of these to combo with it as I couldn't pass up the pricing, and I actually use it more often my Ninja now! Of course there are certain functions that only my Foodi is capable of, but when it comes to plain ol' air frying the Gourmia is great

I'd vote for the Ninja foodie. I've been very happy with it after I bought and returned the Sur La Table. The slt is not only impossible to clean, but whoever designed & programed the UI (User interface) should be handed over to ISIS.

I have a ninja foodi air fryer. It fits more than the standard basket fryers, does all and more than you describe toasts, dehydrates, etc. but the tradeoff is its impossible to clean completely.

Yes, it's excellent for pizza. You can fit a whole frozen pizza in it

Same, I did just purchase a stainless steel pot because my nonstick coating was starting to chip. Otherwise the things been trouble free.

The Ninja Foodi and Cosori Pro are two of the best air fryers for even cooking, large capacity, and versatility. Instant Vortex Plus is another great choice with multiple functions like roasting and dehydrating. If you want something high-end, Breville Smart Oven Air Fryer is excellent.

Ninja Foodi Dual Zone for multi-cooking, Cosori Pro LE for a compact design, Instant Vortex Plus for versatility, Breville Smart Oven Air Fryer for premium features, and Philips Premium XXL for large portions.

Top air fryer picks include Ninja Foodi Dual Zone for multi-cooking, Cosori Pro LE for compact efficiency, Instant Vortex Plus for versatility, Breville Smart Oven Air Fryer for premium features, and Philips Premium XXL for large portions.

I’ve never had any problems with any of my Ninja products (bullet, double stack XL, or slushi), but I will say that their instructions are more detailed than most, plus obviously they are more expensive, but I think that has to do a lot with product reputation.  The only thing I don’t like about the double stack is that the top rack is so narrow. After finding[ this thread on Reddit](https://www.reddit.com/user/No-Competition-5766/comments/1i5jdq2/air_fryer_models_comparison_spreadsheet/) and comparing the different Ninja models, I think that the Foodi might be a better fit for me. I thought I’d share, though, as you can compare all the different brands.

I had a Ninja Foodi, loved it and the surface area you have with it, it was great for reheating pizza. It doesn't crisp up the food quite as well as the basket style ones, but good enough. The fan on mine got clogged with grease after a month or two, and it is essentially impossible to clean. I cleaned it up as well as I could and used it another couple years, now I have a Dreo and the Foodi lives in the pantry until I need to reheat pizza. The Dreo is excellent. 10/10 as an air fryer, and the smart probe cooking actually works great, except I think mine had a software problem that would turn a 45 minute cook into 3 hours at random. A warranty replacement comes soon. The original works perfectly as a basic air fryer, so I'll give it to a friend. Ninja conventional air fryers I rate 1/10. I do not understand how they can not have a window so you know when the food is ready. We have one in our office kitchen, and unless you open it constantly, it is a total gamble how your food comes out. I have had a couple items that I followed the packaging directions and they came out burnt black and smoking. It's too bad because when you get the timing right, the Ninja does a nice job, just as good as the Dreo and better than the Foodi. Also, I don't understand why they have to preheat for longer than it takes to cool the food. An item that I know takes 4 minutes at 400 in my Dreo takes 4 minutes at 400 in the Ninja, but the Dreo requires no preheating and the Ninja needs a few minutes of preheating time. If the food comes out the same from both air fryers, why is the Ninja taking all that preheating time?

Love our ninja foodi

This. It eats up a little counter space but damn does it produce amazing food. Currently on a pork loin kick and it comes out amazing, especially when you pair it with steamed broccoli 🥦

I recently bought the Cosori Pro 2 and it completely blew my ninjas out of the water. I had a Ninja Foodi and the Ninja AF101 and Dual Zone (endless cycles of upgrading and gifting to friends who didnt have an air fryer). Got a Cosori as an extra air fryer. It was $48 on clearance at walmart due to the red color not being very popular. The Cosori performs better than the Ninja in a very key aspect, the removable basket design. Since the sides are also detachable from the overall basket, they can add vents to the side of the basket. This allows the circulation of air to the underside even if the basket is completely full. Ninja's removable plate design would always result in a soggy underside if I overfilled due to the air being unable to circulate. In a scenario where both are half empty, they perform the same - slight edge to the Ninja.The removable basket vents no longer makes me afraid of just dumping a bag of fries This is not worth selling your Ninja and buying a new Cosori. These downfalls can be easily solved by preheating, shaking or simply not overfilling. But it's nice to just set it and forget it And just a preference, I infinitely prefer cleaning the dual basket than trying to remove a hot plate from the bottom

Yes, the Ninja Foodi is one of the best air fryers. It has great feedback and reviews.

I have the Ninja foodie and love it. Purchased the stainless pot to avoid the Teflon type coatings.
