Does this type of air fryer exist?

15 replies

There are SO many out there & I’d like to get one in the sales but I specifically want to cook a couple of things at a time (eg chips & wings) & I would love if it also acts as a slow cooker (for chilli for example)

does such a thing exist to save me trawling through all the descriptions of them?!

I don't know BUT I don't think so ... if you want a machine that will air fry and slow cook, it's probably going to be instapot style which will mean one pot.

That said ... you could cook your chilli in it with some rice or veg above.

I don't really slow cook because I don't eat meat. I have an instapot that I use do cook beans, beetroot, soups etc - but as a pressure cooker rather than a slow cooker. I did think about getting one that air fried too, but like you, I wanted to be able to cook different things in different ways, so got the two drawer air fryer.

I think there's a ninja one that has more than one drawer to cook in and can be adapted for speed etc

Mine was £40 (not a ninja!) and only cooks one speed at a time so I couldn't say how the ninjas do but I've heard good things!

My double basket ninja has a 'dehydrate option which basically acts like slow cooking.

I've slow cooked honey and pineapple juice glazed hams in it on that setting.

Tower 11L air fryer

My instant pot has a lid so it's an air fryer/slow cooker/pressure cooker & a bunch of other things I think it's 9 in 1. I don't use the others clearly.

The Instant Pot one does this

The breville smart oven air fryer has numerous features including slow cooking however, you need to use your own casserole pot. If you purchase an extra air fry basket you can do you wings plus chips at the same time.

The instant pot one sounds like it would be less of a fuss to use.

Instant pot is a pressure cooker and you can buy an air fryer version that does both. The basket can be divided in two to cook two things at once, although it's then a bit tricky to turn them both over as it's one on top of the other.

instant pot vortex duo is a two drawer air fryer. No slow cook function though you can find dishes that fit inside it which you could oven cook a chilli in, if you wanted to give that a whirl!

I have an air fryer oven that can hold three layers of food at once and also slow cook.

I've got a Ninja one that roasts, grills, fries and bakes. It doesn't slow cook. (you need an actual slow-cooker for that). It cost £200 in September, I had to wait 8 weeks for delivery, and now they're selling for £400!

BamBamBilla · 21/11/2022 08:57

Ninja 9 in 1 7ltr. There is 2 racks so you can air fry 2 things at once. It also bakes, grills, slow cooks, dehydrate, saute, pressure cooks and has a yoghurt function. I bought mine refurbished from the ninja store on ebay. No problems at all.

I haven't looked but I know there is a ninja 14 in 1 so I would presume it does all of the above and more.

Hi @NewMamma21 thanks for posting! Just wanted to point you in the direction of our best air fryers page in case it's helpful at all - it lists air fryers which have been recommended by Mumsnetters along with a description of their various capabilities. Hope it's useful, please feel free to let us know if you've any feedback!

Blueuggboots · 21/11/2022 13:05

My ninja multicooker will do 14 different things including slow cooking. It's flipping brilliant!

FasterthanBolt · 21/11/2022 13:10

My Ninja Foodi does, it has a deep pot for slow cooking and also acts as a pressure cooker/dehydrator/air fryer
