Thank you so much for the feedback @Tigriss. The Curtis Stone cooker was so shallow there was no way to make a chicken in it and I was very unhappy with the temperature controls (the temperature dial spun all the way around instead of stopping at the highest or lowest heat setting which caused me to overcook a small ham because I realized too late what had happened).
It sounds like this one is much more along the lines of what I would be interested in. Thank you so much again for letting me/us know how you like your cooker. It's on my "watch" list . . .

Can you bake a chicken in this and have the skin brown without searing first?

I don't know yet, but I'll see if I have a whole chicken in the freezer and do it in the coming weeks.

The chickpeas are roasting away. It sure did heat up much faster than my Ninja does. I put them on at 350 for 30 minutes with some grape seed oil and rosemary garlic herb mix.

Tigriss I noticed the 11 in1 is on 6 value pays. I am trying to decide between it and the ninja. Which do you like best?

I would get the Cook's Companion because of the ceramic pot and the other functions, a clear beeping when it is finished, easy to read screen, clear lid, extra wattage, and heats up super fast compared to the Ninja.
I grilled up a bunch of chicken breasts, let them cool, and sliced them, then froze them in batches for quick meals or salads. It was so much quicker than on my Ninja because of the extra wattage and heat up time. It just went so much faster and less heat in the kitchen for me is a good thing!
The chicken was moist and delicious, but my Ninja did that too because I know how to use it and not burn my meals.

Tigriss thank you so much. You seem like a great cook. I would have liked the plum but it's sold out so I am going for the blue. Thank you Sherbear1
