[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Shallow frying with this project beats using the stove or any of my other kitchen gadgets. The pot is able to keep a very stable temperature, and all food-touching parts can go in the dishwasher for easy cleanup. Another thing I like is that the high sides of the pot keep the splatter very contained. Only minor complaint is that there is a temperature gradient as you move from the sides of the big pot (what would be the centers of the small pots) towards the middle, but this isn't a huge deal if you let everything rest for a second between batches and don't overcrowd the pot while frying.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I got my Multi pot last week and I'm already in love! I love the fact that I can cook two separate things at once, and love the small touches they put into it. The fact it has a condensation catch in the back is something I didn't know I needed, but now think every multi cooker should have!!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The biggest selling point is genuinely the Dual Zone capability. If you’ve ever used a traditional single-basket air fryer, you know the frustration of your protein getting cold while you wait for your side dish to cook. The ability to cook two completely different foods at different temperatures and have them finish at the exact same time is a game-changer for weeknight dinners. It cooks very evenly and makes meal prep incredibly low-effort. The interface is intuitive enough that you don't need to study a manual for an hour just to make dinner, and the cleanup is surprisingly quick. To keep this completely grounded: you do need to measure your kitchen space. It’s a substantial appliance and takes up a fair amount of real estate on the counter. Additionally, expect a slight learning curve during the first week as you figure out the perfect timing and temperature for your specific preferences when syncing two different zones. Overall, it’s a genuinely great appliance that actually delivers on its promises rather than just offering a gimmick. Whether you're an overworked grad student or just trying to feed a household without the stress, it earns its keep on the kitchen counter. Highly recommend.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Has a lot of features! Found it very easy to use! Easy to assemble out of box, instructions where straight forward. Used the slow cook feature, cooked the meal evenly. Meal was moist and cooked evenly.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Heats up quick! Love how it is easy to use, store, and move around. It is so convenient to be able to cook 2 things at the same time making cooking quicker
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The unit itself is beautiful and feels very high quality, and the packaging was excellent.
I’ve tried a couple of features so far. The stir-fry function was fantastic for marinated chicken and vegetables—it cooked everything so quickly! I also used the slow-cook feature to make shredded chicken for tacos, and the chicken cooked much faster than I expected while still turning out great.
My only suggestion would be to include more detailed instructions for each of the different functions. With so many features, there’s definitely a learning curve when you’re first figuring everything out and learning which settings work best for different foods.
Overall, I’m very happy with it so far and excited to keep experimenting with all the different functions. Definitely more handy than typical crock pots and other multi cookers.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The Ninja MultiPot XL is a must-have! It’s so convenient for my small kitchen, especially since I’m not someone who enjoys spending hours cooking. I love being able to make meals that are quick, fresh, and healthy, and this is perfect for that! I air-crisped salmon in one half and steamed green beans in the other, and I had a delicious, balanced meal ready in just 10 minutes. I highly recommend it to anyone with a small kitchen or anyone who wants to eat healthier without spending hours in the kitchen!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] A few thoughts: 1) The power button blended in with the cooker so we could not figure out how to turn it on. 2) It was difficult to figure out how to change the temperature. 3) The multi-cooker was very big - easy to make family meals. 4) The multi-cooker was non-stick and looked very sleek. 5) The inserts don't stack compactly - could take up more kitchen space than necessary. 6) The multi-cooker resulted in very tasty meals.
