Ninja Foodi-any opinions?

6 replies

Samewrinklesnewname · 22/02/2026 13:16

My trusty 40+ year old pressure cooker is on its way out. I mainly use it for making soup.

I’ve been looking at the Ninja Foodi, as it also combines with an air fryer and slow cooker. I have a ninja air fryer and it gets used loads, I also use my basic slow cooker a lot.

Im quite tempted to be able to combine the 3, and be able to get rid of the huge air fryer I have, but would be interested to hear about any downsides if any one can share?

Space, either in worktops on in a cupboard isn’t an issue (although I do like being able to keep my counters clear)

No downsides, get one!
Weve had the ninja foodi 9-in-1 for 5 years or so, use it daily and it's absolutely brilliant. Ours has a separate pressure cooker lid, the newer model one is built in so even better.
ive tried out each mode, use the air fry and pressure cooker often, rarely use yoghurt and steam and never use the other modes. But still absolutely worth it.

Yes they are amazing!! Only drawback is that we upgraded to the new one and it's much louder than the old one. I bloody love mine though, had one for years and wouldn't be without it.

I've had the 9 in 1 for about 6yrs. Bloody brilliant! Does everything apart from bring you a cup of tea in bed! Definitely go for it.

We've got the older model with the interchangeable pressure cook/normal lids. It gets used so much. And the other half does a banging roast chicken in it in under an hour - pressure cooks it first then changes the lid and air frys to crisp up the skin. It is so, so good!

I have the big foodi and the air fryer drawers as well. Use them for everything. Foodi gets used as a pressure cooker daily and also to steam. Increases capacity for air frying when the drawers are full. Wouldn’t be without them.

I can’t imagine that the noise will be much worse than my old pressure cooker hissing away on the hob!

This is all sounding positive!
