I am a Ninja fan and have, or have had the majority of their products. I also tend to research their products before I buy them in an effort to avoid duplication of functionality. I did buy the Ninja Speedi thinking it would be nice to cook a couple of foods at one time. I did use the Speedi a couple of times. Once to steam and crisp a whole chicken and once to air fry French fries. Both came out very well. The problem I had with the Speedi was that cooking two foods required one to be below the other and there was no way to monitor each food being cooked, and there was too much trial and error.This Combi oven is basically an upgraded Speedi cooker that is much more versatile and, in my opinion, easier to use. It has the same functions and settings as the Speedi, but the ability to open a door on the front presents a whole new world of possibilities. I have used this cooker a few times since I got it and have not yet explored all the possibilities.So, what do I love about this cooker/oven.1) It opens from the front and has a window to view food as it cooks.2) The steam and crisp function should be called a steam and brown function. I have used this function to reheat meats, such as leftover roast, chicken, etc. that had been frozen and thawed. The steam keeps the meat moist, and an external thermometer keep it from being over cooked.3) It works great as an air fryer as did the Speedi.4) The steam and crisp works as well as my more expensive Anova oven to cook leftover meats and for fish filets. For this, I use a Meater thermometer to monitor internal temperature. The steam and crisp also works well for refreshing stale bread and rolls, especially French bread. The result is a soft inside and a crispy crust.5) This oven is large enough to cook a 5 lb. chicken using the steam and crisp. For this purpose, an external thermometer should be used as the suggested times in the manual tend to overcook the chicken.6) Other than taking 7 minutes to build steam for the steam and crisp function, this oven does not require preheating.7) What I have cooked in this oven so far is done surprisingly faster than in my other ovens.8) The ability to reheat proteins, full meals, and casseroles without drying them out or changing the texture of the food is worth it's weight in gold.As with most new cooking appliances, there is a learning curve. Getting recipe ideas from the provided recipe book is a good way to get familiar with the capabilities of the Combi Oven. It should also be noted that recipes for the Speedi will work as well in this oven. Once you become familiar with this oven, it becomes easier to plan your own dual level meals. For the dual level meals that cook rice or pasta in the bottom pan, you still need to use a different bowl for serving. I sometimes use Rica-a-Roni or Knorr pasta sides that I can cook in the microwave in the serving bowl and not dirty another pan.Overall, I very much like this cooker over the Speedi and would recommend it if it supplies the functions you need. I will update this review if my opinion changes, and hope this review was helpful for you.

This little combi oven does a phenomenal job with steaming (hard boiled eggs, potatoes) and air fry (panko crusted fish filets, eggplant, cauliflower, frozen samosas and egg rolls, etc with or without breading). I have enjoyed mastering the "combi meal" setting that allows you to cook a meal for 8 in about 12 to 15 mins. We get great results with frozen chicken-- I mean frozen solid, rock-like chicken breasts or thighs coated in marinade or oil and seasonings-- golden brown and delicious in 15 mins. It really does it. On bake setting, it heats up very quickly and has done a great job with bread and cookies, anything we've put in there. We have cut our monthly gas bill by over 40% by using this oven instead of baking with our gas oven-range and our electricity usage has barely gone up at all. Where we live, we're saving a good $35/mo by using the Ninja every day. We don't own a microwave, btw, fwiw, and we don't need one. Between the InstantPot for cooking beans, making soup and braising meat under pressure, and the Ninja for fast multi-part meals, steaming and air frying, we don't really need our oven-range at all. Add a single induction burner for wok cooking and cooking fried eggs here and there and we would be all set. There has been a short learning curve for using the combi meals setting and heating up leftovers. White rice and pasta cook exactly as they tell you. Brown rice really needs to be par-cooked. Quinoa has been a little hit and miss with being slightly underdone. I'd suggest starting with a veggie stew of some kind, mixing the quinoa in half again more water or broth than you'd use on the stovetop, and making sure all of it is spread evenly across the pan. I have loved sautéing onions and peppers right in the pan I use to cook rice, sometimes toasting the rice to make pilaf. You could totally use this oven to make risotto. Seafood up top during combi meals cooks very quickly-- maybe 10 mins unless it's frozen. With shrimp or thin fresh fillets, consider putting the seafood on the bake tray after your rice or pasta have mostly cooked. Be careful to trim your parchment to fit the bake tray and don't put so much parchment in there that it touches the element above. Thick frozen mahi mahi fillets were beautifully done after 12 mins. I wouldn't recommend sticking this oven inside a cabinet because it kicks out a good amount of steam. It needs plenty of overhead space but it has a small footprint on our counter. The controls are intuitive and easy to read, and temp adjustments are in 5 degree F increments. I love this Ninja oven and plan on buying one for my daughter when she goes away for college!

The media could not be loaded. If you are unlike other people who dont clean and dont leave the door open when its hot, you could run into some issues like any electronic. I never had any but its still good to let the thing cool down.Its been the most amazing airfryer and cooker I've come to see. The fan up top doesnt get too dirty which is nice but you just need some good stainless steel cleaner for the hull and its good as new. Just make sure the stainless steel cleaner is food safe or just use water to clean any potential residueAnyway I've had it for a year so far and its been just incredible. I take care of it and unplug it when its done and let the door open just a tad so it can cool down nicely. Other than that im not cooking brisket and steak and crazy things in it. I used the rice option once it was cool but it stays pretty soaked so you gotta kinda get used to that until it dries.The only thing I feel annoying is the safety button on the bottom. Its a little cumbersome sliding the pan in and out but its not bothersome or hard at all you just feel it going in and out with the pan. Other than that. The safety button is there so you can't activate rice mode when the pan isnt on the bottom thats all it is. I feel thats kinda silly to even have that because you gotta switch it over to rice mode anyway?In any case thats pretty much the cons. Oh and I wish bake mode wasnt only pre heat setting type because sometimes I have food that is a little greasy and I dont want the fan to blow at 400mph(cfm lol) and want a lower fan setting but air fry mode the fan goes so fast it can basically fly lol 😆 jk. I love the fan going fast because that is a real air fryer not a convection.
