I have one of the earlier versions, the 4-in-1, I don't use all the features but I do all of my slow cooking and some stovetop recipes in it - pulled pork, shredded beef, crack chicken, chili, soups, crockpot mac and cheese. I think the Ninja brand is solid and reliable. I own several of their small appliances. I really don't need a replacement but the upgrade is tempting.

I believe this is the same model available on Amazon. There are over 1000 reviews you can read!

Kohls has it on sale for $149.99. If you have a 30% off coupon, it'll cost $105 with free shipping. I was ready to purchase last night, but checking my Kohl's orders, I realized I had bought it and then returned it. Wanted it, but didn't need it. Trying to control buying more small appliances.

@Starpolisher I'm tempted by this, especially since it includes a sous vide option, but it is a bit larger than I'm ever likely to need.

I feel myself starting to cave & I think I'm going to order one. A sous vide alone would end up costing me this much.

I saw some of the presentation but didn't see a sous vide presentation, although they kept saying it would sous vide. Do you know how the water circulates in the cooker for sous vide?

I think that maroon color is beautiful. Unfortunately I can't think of where I'd store it. Times like this I wish I had a walk-in pantry.

I don't think they demo'd sous vide at midnight. If they did I missed it. I thought sous vide required the warm water to be circulated and I was curious to see that. If not, I think I could sous vide as well as many of the other functions in my Wolfgang Puck multi-cooker.

I guess that's the thing. How much would you REALLY use all those different functions? I never steam stuff. I already have a Ninja 5 in 1 which grills, bakes, roasts, and air fries. I'm not even sure what Braising is, so apparently I don't do that.

They don't show that huge list of all the things you can do with it that they show right before the presentation, so I don't know what I'm missing I guess.

@Icegoddess @Starpolisher I did order (charcoal) but I also called HSN CS to let them know all of the functions need to be demonstrated, that mentioning them isn't enough. The rep I spoke with emailed the higher ups while I was still on the phone to make the request. I've called on about similar things before and they are good about it so fingers crossed this time.

I dont have a Ninja but I do have a slow cooker, and I used it almost all of the time. It saves me time, and its a fast clean up and when I brown/fry in it there is very little grease splatter.

The TS price is still available today as a TS Postsale.

@DaleP Did you purchase in the warehouse or on-line? I saw this on-line at Costco, and it had an approximate $10 shipping charge. Returning the unit I bought from Kohls was a mistake be a use the total cost was approx $89 which included tax. Now I'm kicking myself.

Regardless of all the hype and "scare tactics", the Merlot unit is still available at HSN.

ETA I just called my local Costco warehouse and the item is out of stock, but is expected in probably by the weekend or early next week. Price is the same as on-line, $100, but no shipping since it can be picked up.

ETA 9/29/23 After much hemming and hawing, I went to Costco yesterday and really looked at this item and decided not to purchase -- too big for my needs. I have

1 Rival crockpot, 1 Cooks Essentials pressure cooker and 2 Instant Pots -- 6 qt. and 8 qt. Think I have plenty, don't you. Also passed on the Tramantina 5 qt. skillet. This was $40 on sale and I've seen it on-line at other "stores" for close to $80. Costco Rocks

Wow! My Ninja is going to be delivered tomorrow! I'll get to try it out over the weekend! 🎉 It was originally scheduled for delivery on the 28th!

I have 2 luncheons next week (football kickoff at work & fellowship luncheon at church) that I could use this for...
