I have used this multicooker for about a week now and find I am using it at every opportunity. I love it! This is the 6 quart version and the size is perfect for the two of us. I had been using a Cuisinart 6 qt. cooker with a different footprint for many years (during which I had to replace the cooking pot twice, as it developed defects in the non-stick interior, and it was decidedly more difficult to use and clean. This Ninja Foodi Pro cooking pot is more lightweight than some, but it cooks very, very well and is extremely versatile. The only reason I did not give all 5 stars is that there is a vent hole in the cover which is not closeable and allows too much moisture to escape during slow cooking and I find I must watch and add liquid during the cooking process. I wonder how this works when slow cooking during the day when one is out of the house?
I've only used it a few times so far but really like it. I used the saute setting and used it to keep my mashed potatoes to temp over christmas (we had a delay in the cooking of the rib roast so this came in really handy). It's easy to use. Most of the settings have a hi/lo option. It looks nice and takes up less space than my traditional slow cooker.
It takes longer to use this than a fry pan but if you're multitasking it can be handy. I tried the spaghetti recipe where you cook everything all together and that didn't turn out very well all the noodles were stuck together.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Got this as a gift when buying another product. Have had 2 weeks and used it many times on several settings. So easy to use and very easy to clean. Can't wait to try more options.
This is definitely my new go to for my meals. I love it and so easy and only 1 pan to clean and it just wipes out. I've made different noodle meals and many more meals in it. It's a must in every kitchen. Ninja is #1 in my kitchen. I have so many of there products and they are the best!!!
