Ninja Foodie

Costco has the 6.5 qt. Foodie, model OP305CO for $190 with free S&H. Sounds like a great deal to me. You can see it on line at their web site.

QVC has an upcoming TSV, maybe Sunday (?). They will have several colors unavailable elsewhere.

One thing I want to add here that I may have forgotten to tell folks and I just take for granted that everybody knows, but, have learned that's not the case

When you pressure cook or bake meat good idea to put in cup of water to the pot.

Yikes ! just learned if using canned biscuits in the Foodi don't follow PIllsbury's regular oven cooking time.

I set mine for 8, way to long good thing I checked at 4 they were done by then. I had preheated it, guess if I hadn't preheated would had made a difference.

I'm not preheating and setting to 4 minutes next time

you learn by doing I guess. I set temp to 400 may cut that down to 375'

think I'll try to make donuts in there, too.

No deep frying.

get a can of biscuits stick finger thru the middle, grease the rack that goes

down in the pan and figure out what temp and for how long

can go to youtube and see what other's video says too.

Still discovering uses for this thing !

Same price at Sams. I got mine a few months ago for $179. Then a little while after Sams had a pretty good coupon on it - $40 or $50. Gotta watch Sams for stuff like that.

I absolutely love my Foodi. It gets used at least once a day. Hard boiled eggs cooked in the Foodi practically peel themselves. The Air Crisp feature works like a dream. Since I purchased the Foodi and the Breville Smart Oven Air, my regular oven is now only used for storing pots and pans. Best money I’ve ever spent. I highly recommend it.😊

First presentation of NInja Kitchen is tonight at 11 central

oops my mistake! thanks for pointing that out @SharkE

Re: Ninja Foodie

SharkE — Sat, 22 Jun 2019 12:57:38 GMT

That one is not a Foodi mostly a pressure cooker

Foodi has lot more options. Air crisping being the main difference why there is 2 lids

SharkE — Sun, 23 Jun 2019 00:39:42 GMT

for that price I knew something was off LOL

Re: Ninja Foodie

chessylady — Sun, 23 Jun 2019 04:15:23 GMT

Is the price still competitive if you add the $13.22 shipping?

@coffee drinker Every few months there is another type cooker. And they make the others look like junk and make you believe they can not be lived without it.. How much money will people waste until they just don't want to cook anymore. I think people are going to have to move to make room for everything. Or do what my Mother did, buy things , have a garage sale and just about give something new and barely used awy for the price and she thought she made a killing and the end of the Garage sale. I wish people would not fall for all these appliances they don't last. And the warranty is really short termed.

Re: Ninja Foodie

BeccaLou — Sun, 23 Jun 2019 06:17:28 GMT

@grandma petes It would be grand if the Q would let people trade up for a new cooker or have like a garage sell to get other kitchen items and sell it back to them with some money off the new and improved models.I can wish can't I.?

Re: Ninja Foodie

coffee drinker — Sun, 23 Jun 2019 11:13:58 GMT

@BeccaLou I agree 100% with you. I was so tempted to purchase, but resisted. What would I do with the Instant Pot and air fryer that I have.

Donated 2 pressure cookers before purchasing the IP, but still have a Cook's Essential PC and 2, not 1, slow cookers gathering dust in the cellar. Kills me thinking of the money spent and wasted.

Re: Ninja Foodie

mathissimple — Sun, 23 Jun 2019 12:55:11 GMT

Is the Foodi a better option than the pressure cooker? I have an Istapot and an Airfryer. Do I need this extra appliance?

I have several friends with a Foodi and go on and on about how i should get one. I told them I was waiting for QVC to have it as it will be a better price and/or have other items included. Sams also has it today for for $190 without $14 shipping. I don’t care about the special colors. It is definitely not a good deal. I would rather shop local.

Re: Ninja Foodie

SharkE — Sun, 23 Jun 2019 13:35:58 GMT

probably not. You will have to transfer your pressure cooked food over to the air fryer if you want to crisp it off though. @mathissimple

I don't like having different appliances when I could have one that does it all

saves on space and clean up.

I think it all depends on what U eat, if money is a concern, space, etc.

If you want a color or content with basic black.

My red is coming Mon. I wasn't content with basic black LOL

Good luck ! Can't wait till David comes on choices will be limited after that
