[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have never been so excited to cook! This cooker is amazing! I used the crockpot setting first..It is wonderful not to have to use two different pans to make a roast..you can sear right in the pot and then just set the trimmer. The options on this cooker are amazing. I can get rid of several cooking pots now!
I have the two previous Ninja multicooker, the NSWBN and the Cooking System with Auto IQ CS960.Both of the older systems have a 6 quart cooking pot, so the selling point on this cooker for me is the 8.5 quart capacity.
The first multicooker included a pan, a cooking rack, and a silicone muffin pan, but not a glass lid. The second one included a cooking rack and a glass lid. This one includes only the glass lid and all accessories must be purchased separately. This cooker has more functions than the previous models, but I do still use the Auto IQ recipes on the CS960 model. The first model offered 3 levels of heat for the sauté function which I liked. This model and the CS960 offer only 2 levels of heat - high or low. As for functions, most of them you will likely never use. Braise can be done on older models using stovetop low. Sous Vide is not usually accurate on this type of cooker. Using the stick sous vide units usually works better.
From what I can see, the real advantage of this cooker is the 8.5 quart size. If you have an older Ninja multicooker and don't need the extra capacity, this purchase would not be worth it for you. If you don't have one of the Ninja multicookers, this cooker is the bomb. It's perfect for any casserole dish you can imagine. I use the CS960 often, and I'm sure I will use this cooker as much. Even so, I plan to hang on to the CS960 for the Auto IQ recipes.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This Ninja cooker is amazing! I have only used a few of the features so far but I can’t wait to use the other features. I made a roast in it. I was able to sear my roast and then slow cook it all in the same cooker. It turned out amazing. The cleaning of this cooker was super easy. Nothing stuck to it. I love this!!!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The Ninja Foodi PossibleCooker PRO is a more than capable replacement for several kitchen appliances we needed to replace. Our primary use several times a month will be the slow cooker functionality. The settings allow you to adjust the cooking time and temperature easily. The non-stick surface makes cooking and cleaning easy. The included Ninja spoon worked well and did not scuff or scrape the bottom. It is super handy to have a handle on the lid to hold the spoon during cooking and storage. While our food was cooking, we heard a few cracking noises due to the temperature adjusting. This device has many other settings, including a bread maker. Included was also a recipe booklet to try for each setting. The controls for the settings are intuitive and straightforward to operate, so one can easily program and go about your day. Overall, the quality matches the high standard that our other Ninja kitchen appliances have.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This cooker is a game changer. The design is sleek and looks great on the countertop. What's really impressive is the way that it cooks. I feel like my pulled pork is juicier and has more taste. It doesn't dry up the meat and really cooks it slowly throughout. I've only tried a few of the functions but there's so much more to this that I can't want to try out.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This Ninja does everything. It’s not overly heavy to pick up. Nice easy clean up due to the non stick material. It goes from the counter to the oven easily so you don’t need multiple cooking pots. My first day I was making my specialty pasta dish. I was able to sauté my sausage- onion and bell peppers until they were mostly cooked all the way then add the sauce to simmer. Then I put it on slow cooker setting for 4 hours. I then add cheese to the top with fresh tomatoes and parsley. I open the oven up and I can pull the container up after it’s finished in the slow cooker setting to finish off in the oven. I just saved myself having to clean two extra cooking pots since I can do all of it in one Ninja Foodi PossibleCooker PRO. I know what will be getting used 5 days a week(this). You can bake and steam. And I’m going to this weekend make a chocolate lava cake in it. You won’t be disappointed having this in your kitchen. And to top it off it’s by Ninja too.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This cooker is large and in charge! I enjoy that you can use it for so many different things! Having the added convenience of using the interior pot to put in the over is great. I am really looking forward to making some cold weather comfort foods in this! As I said, it is large so you will need to find space for it!
