We got a Ninja when our oven broke. Watch out for what size you need. Ours only takes a maximum of a small/medium chicken or a 1 lb piece of beef. Enough for 4, just about.

However, the cooking results (once you get the hang of it) are fantastic. With chicken it locks in the moisture, so the meat is succulent. Beef can be done so it's rare-ish in the middle or browned all the way through.
Even now the oven is fixed, we still use the Ninja for roasts ,..and other stuff. It does excellent roast potatoes too.

A lot less mess washing up. No more trays and foil, and fat everywhere
I reckon, once you get one, you'll really love it

always get the best you can afford.

One thing about the cook book, is it's very Americanised. Lots of ingredients we'd never heard of

My missus ended up buying one written for the English market.

Air fryers are the Steve McClaren of kitchen equipment

We cooked lamb kebabs in our Ninja yesterday. But cooked the cut peppers, flat breads and haloumi cheese on the BBQ. It's all about timing the ingredients so they're ready at the same time.

wife thinks it may be a good idea to line the ninja with foil when we cook lamb next, as it's a very fatty meat.

excellent meal.

I hope it turns out good for you. Remember, it can take a bit of tweeking on the timings to get stuff exactly the way you want it.

Update:
The missus now has 3 ninja things sitting on the worktop, and the actual cooker hardly gets used (except to boil pasta and potatoes)
They are not labelled, but from memory.

One is a soup-maker. It chops , cooks, then boils the ingredients into soup.
One looks like an oven/air-dryer. It cooks vegetables meat and roast potatoes.
The last one looks like a grill. i assume that was the one that did the steak last week, and the steak was fabulous.

And putting a foil liner inside these things, apparently reduces washing to an absolute minimum.
No lingering after smells in the kitchen, no fat-splattered work top and splash backs. An awful lot less washing up.

And all the food is cooked how the missus intended it to be. Steak rare in the middle, roast potatoes fluffy on inside and crispy on outside, etc.

The air fryer thing does excellent chips, without the fatty greasy smell and residue.

And breakfast this morning. Bacon sandwiches are an absolute breeze. Really crispy bacon, no splatter. Just gorgeous crispy bacon aroma , as the bacon is placed on the buttered slices of bread.
