This is literally the best thing ever invented. I no longer use my oven since I cook my breakfast, lunch, and dinner in it. If you have second thoughts about buying it DON'T. It takes seconds to heat up and cooks food to perfection. I've literally bought all ninja products! If you still have second thoughts. I'd suggest buying it and giving it a try. I wasn't a fan till I converted once I saw results with all my cooking.

Verdict. The Ninja Foodi Smart XL Grill is an amazing small appliance that delivers quality grilling, roasting, broiling, baking, air frying and dehydrating. There are other products that provide similar all-in-one capabilities, but we really like the convenience and form factor of the Foodi Smart Grill, especially the grilling function.
First impressions. it’s a big machine, but it will fit on any countertop. It looks pretty good with the stainless steel and black combination. Where are the buttons?! As we discovered later, all the controls are done through a touch screen on the front panel. Oh, it also comes with a plug-in thermometer!
Quality. The machine appears to be solidly built. The top lid is sturdy. The thermometer cord is protected. The included accessories are high quality and look like they will last. Specifically, all the cooking accessories are covered with a premium quality coating. Case in point: after we grilled some chicken breast, cleaning up the grill plate was much easier than expected, and done in just a minute. In all, I saved maybe 20 minutes using the Foodi Smart Grill than using the full-size grill outside.
Form factor. We’ve used other all-in-one machines but they were setup like pressure cookers. This machine opens like a mini grill and provides a nice rectangular cooking area. It’s easy to open and close the lid. Lastly, the controls are well placed (right on the front panel), ample (all parameters can be adjusted), and fairly intuitive. While it is not a small machine, it would fit in a small kitchen and delivery excellent capabilities that would be worth the small trade-off in space.
Grilling performance. The grilling function is our favorite feature by far. The machine heats up fast, allows for grilling indoors, you can quickly grill small portions, or up to six steaks, and then clean-up is pretty quick. We plan to use the grill function much more in the winter when it is too cold to grill outdoors. We tested the parameters from the recipe book to grill our chicken, and while it cooked very fast, it left the chicken a little dry. On the next batch, we stayed around 350F and cooked the chicken breast much slower, yielding nice and moist grilled chicken. So, make sure you play with the temperatures until you get used to it.
What I love.
- It looks fairly nice
- Really nice form factor
- Sturdy and high quality
- Wired thermometer is a really nice touch and allows for precision cooking without constant monitoring
- The presets for meats are helpful and welcomed
- The manual and recipe books are thorough
- We can grill in the winter!
- So many functions! Our next meal will be a nice tenderloin with the roast function. Can't wait!
What I don’t love.
- While I think the machine looks fairly nice, I think a version with more stainless steel would match better with our other appliances
- Once you get used to the controls, they are easy. At first, we couldn’t figure out how to get the thermometer to work. The manual clarified that you have to select the type of meat first and then you will be able to control the options for the thermometer.
Conclusion. We really like the Ninja Foodi Smart XL Grill. We plan to use it about once a week for quick “real food” cooking, without having to fire up the grill outside, or heat-up the oven. This appliance allows for efficient and convenient small portion cooking, and delivers pretty tasty results.

Ninja Foodi smart XL grill
This grill is an "all-in-one" kind of grill.
Besides grilling, it bakes and air crisps.
I grilled 2 steaks and in 10 minutes they were perfect (medium well).
We usually grill outside in both, charcoal and propane grills, and I got to say, they tasted very good!
The steaks were juicy and the science of timing was now at the touch if a button.
It's a lot quicker on the ninja grill and easy clean up!
It does everything a oven would do too, so I will probably just stick to this little ninja oven.
It comes with a grill grate, crisper basket, and cooking pot. It also comes with a double sided cleansing brush and Foodi smart thermometer.
You can also cook a whole chicken in it and bake a pizza. It also can dehydrate meats fruits veggies for healthy snacks.
Everything is touch screen and easy to figure out. It's perfect for a quick meal instead of waiting for the oven to heat up. You can also put frozen food in and it will grill it to perfection.
I would recommend this to a friend who loves cooking and grilling.
If you're like me, and love grilling outside, do not be dismayed. Don't see this as a direct replacement to outdoor grilling, but as an addition, though it could very well substitute the quality of grill you get. Obviously, you don't get the smoked flavor, but this is an indoor appliance, so keep that in mind.
You could take it on trips too!
Cons:
Maybe not a full con, but I'd say make sure you still have decent ventilation when grilling and a good sized counter. The back of the grill let's out the moisture, so don't put it against the wall.
Buy it so you can make those juicy steaks!
