    Hi there! Love your video! Really helpful! I'm trying to decide between grill and air fryer, and I'm more confused now that Ninja has a Dual Zone Air Fryer. It seems so practical! The only thing that makes me think about the Grill would be the food flavour. Do you think the flavour (specially for meats) is very different between the grill and the air fryer?

    Thanks for this video. I have an Instant pot and the ninja foodi grill. Love them both and use them both. However, we are in an RV (for travel) and to reduce weight and space we are having to decide if Ninja Foodi 9 in 1 is better or not . decisions, decisions …

    I bought the Ninja grill online, I did my research and checked all the prices. The usual, like Amazon, Ebay, Argos, and many other outlets. The best price I got was almost £50 cheaper than all the others was direct from Ninja. Postage was free, I had to wait a few extra days for delivery, but it was well worth waiting considering the savings I made

    I've got the Ninja grill, I've Done lamb chops and they were great, I've done steak and that wasn't to good, but I'm a complete beginner with it, Can I cook chips and steak together in it and get good results, golden chips and a medium steak?, any ideas would be welcome. thanks

    Helpful vid, I'm looking into buying the grill, but then realised the multi cooker does it all, however I already have an instant pot, so was debating over selling my IP and buying the Ninja multi (so 1 appliance to do it all) but your vid has helped me to decide keep the IP and buy the Ninja grill too.

    I love different types of kitchen appliances. do7.pl/Ninja I was originally looking just for a pressure cooker when I found this. I already had an air fryer/bake/reheat/broil appliance I figured I just needed a plain old pressure cooker. Well let me tell y’all I was wrong!! I needed this thing right here! This combo is amazing! I’ve been talking about it for the last 2 months I saw a lady at Costco debating whether or not to buy one and after I told her everything I can do with this she walked out with two. I have put FROZEN chicken in this thing threw some seasoning in the pot turned it in for 7 minutes and it was fully COOKED then I threw some sauce on the chicken wings put them in the fry basket for a couple more minutes and they were nice and crispy in the outside and juicy on the inside. I’ve made cake in this. I use this everyday! EVERYDAY!!! I love this thing I take it with me when I visit my parents cause we’re a team now me and my foodi.

    I have the foodi. Not the grill. I’m fixing to buy the grill though. I haven’t done too much research but I thought they could do pretty much the same thing except grill. That seems to be the case from your video. That may not warrant getting both for some people. However, for me it does. I got my foodi two years ago for Christmas and I have not been disappointed one time. I love the ninja foodi and I feel certain I will love the grill as well. I personally want all the ninja items 🙂 and today just so happens to be a great day to pick the grill up! Thanks! Ohhhh btw…. glad I found your channel I need recipes because I honestly try not to use my stove anymore!

    I love my Ninja foodi. I love the tender crisp for wings and.other items. I had a generic air fryer and a Cuisinart pressure cooker. My space is small so I love the foodi that does both. I wouldlove to be able to cook more wings at once.

    So I've been thinking between the instant pot ninja foodie in the ninja free girl and you do a good demonstration because I'm gearing more towards the ninja Fuji grill because I would be grilling more than soups and stews So that's the one I probably should get i live bomber self though I'm limited on space because I'm estudio in i just started the keto diet so a probably use the grill part more often can you also deep fry in it?

    I am still on the fence. I currently own the ninja foodi With pressure cooker. I am looking at the ninja foodie grill. My cooking lifestyle has changed tremendously since starting the keto lifestyle. I no longer make soups, rice, pasta etc. I primarily grill or broil meats, chicken, I do make chili once in a while. I’m just trying to decide if I can still get everything I want to do with the regular ninja foodie rather than the expense of the extra foodie grill.

    First I bought the NFTC. Then I added the NFGXL. I felt I didn't need the NFTC anymore…bummer I felt I wasted my money and put it for sale for less than half I paid for it plus the bonus item of the $40 grill plate I ordered.
    Thank goodness no buyers first week I listed it on my Next-door.
    Plus I have 4 pressure cookers not counting my stove top ones I've had for years and my pressure canners..omg..I've already embarrassed myself :)). I'm 75 yrs young and I have collected a lot of Stuff :)) Plus I'm a gadget freak.
    Anyway, a happy ending. I discovered the the XLNFG pot was too low for many larger meats, roasts, chickens I wanted to cook.
    Well the NFTC holds and cooks these items just about the same as I would cook them in my XLFG. The bonus that made me super happy was I just got the wonderful quality perfect stainless steel pot from Goldlion on amazon.
    Yes I ordered another accessory for the NFTC I wanted to sell at a giveaway price..so glad I didn't.

    In Spain the Instant Pot is just as expensive as the Ninja Foodi 😭 I recently got the Instant Pot Duo Crisp and so far I'm happy with it. The only problem is that the air frying basket is too small to fit big steaks to lay flat on the tray. I just had to debone a steak because the bone was so long it couldn't fit… While we're at it – the try is also annoying. It gets dislodged easily so you have to flip the steaks very gingerly

    Hi I'm on the fence on which to get but if the foodi grills too I think that will settle it but i have a question about size. For me I would get the 6qt but can you cook small amounts in the 8 qt just as well? So then when family comes I could cook more.

    I am interested in finding an air fryer that I could use especially for vegetables. I am a vegan, I already own and use an Instant Pot. I am considering the Ninja foodi grill, but I'm wondering if you think it air crisps well and has enough space for lots of veggies. I would also use the grill function. I'd probably have to store it on a shelf near my counter and move it to the counter when I want to use it. Is it ridiculously heavy?

    I just purchased the compact ninja foodi off of Amazon. I’m still on the fence. It’s only me . I am a fan of instant pot and I purchased their airfryer lid which I have not opened the box yet. Some pictures and comments on Amazon reveal rust building up on ninja foodi which is a concern of mine. Since I have airfryer I would not be interested at this time for the ninja grill. Also its price point is a concern for me. Amazon is offering the compact foodi at quite a considerable lesser price. Money is very important at this time to me. So have you seen any rust on your foodi? Around the metal parts of the cooker and the pressure cooker lid?

    Lisa, I bought the Instant Pot first until I discovered the Foodi and recently I bought the Grill.
    To be Honest I use all 3 still as I can Pressure cook in the IP while doing something else in one of my Ninjas.
    It’s the best of both Worlds to me.
