Who Needs An Outside Grille Anymore?
|Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The Ninja Foodi XL Pro Indoor 7-in-1 Grill and Griddle with 4-Quart Air Fryer, and can Roaster, Bake, Dehydrate, and Broil all in one small package that looks great on your countertop. Ninja has done it again in my opinion with the Foodi XL. The #1 reason I wanted this was the new style of air fryer that uses the heat from the grille and circulates it through a bin/pan that they designed to keep food at a position to get the heat and air all around your food. Another great point is half way through, it has you flip the food for even more equal cooking. It works so well, I opened the trash and tossed my old air fryer. The Ninja Foodi cooks much faster and more thoroughly than the other $100+ air fryer that is now in the county landfill. The grille is another great feature to use making burgers in no time with much less grease and fat. Does very well with chicken breast and yes, my grilled meatloaf. The grille heats very evenly for easy to cook meats and veggies. Pancakes, eggs, bacon and hash browns are all easy as can be on this amazing griddle. No, you cant have huge pancakes unless you cook one at a time but 2 decent sized pancakes cook fast and brown nicely on the Ninja Foodi. Eggs are easy to flip with the non stick coating and a big spatula, anyone can flip eggs now, even my 9 year old daughter. Baking is not a top priority in the Foodi but I did test it with a recipe and worked great. It was a little faster than the oven and I had no issues with the center not being cooked. My assumption is the smaller area of the Foodi traps the heat in better than an oven cooking faster and more thoroughly. We tried some thin steaks with the broil feature and they turned out horrible, I wont lie, but I have to say the steaks were not the best and I was learning what the broiler would do. I usually do not broil steaks but I do not know what else to try as I do not broil a lot. Do not take this part of the review to heart. Size is not bad for all you can use it for, I cannot wait to take it in the camper next year for fast meals off the generator instead of the crappy flat plate and microwave everything type of food we usually make. We leave it on our counter and is never in the way, Also, it looks nice, not out of place at all next to the rest of the Ninja family of products we use. The quality of Ninja products has never let us down yet and is the main reason we keep sticking to them for a cooking and baking needs. If you want the most universal cooking device in your home, look at the Ninja Foodi like of products, one of them will definitely work for you.

Best indoor grill I have used!!!
|Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The Ninja Foodi XL Pro 7-in-1 Indoor Grill & Griddle with 4-Quart Air Fryer, Roast, Bake, Dehydrate, and Broil showcases Ninja's 500F grill grate (with a surface of more than 12x8 inches). You get direct, edge-to-edge heat (which is important for uniform cooking without hot or cold spots). So sear, sizzle, and crisp! With the hood down you get cyclonic air, while with the hood up you get very intense high-heat searing. It has an awesome smoke control system that also mitigates grease spatter and helps prevent grease buildup in exhaust vents. All but the base unit are dishwasher safe (the grill plates are ceramic coated and VERY non-stick). The air fryer is as good at producing crisp food as a dedicated air fryer. 7 functions that actually work – amazing! This is my 4th indoor grill and the best one! Easy to use (intuitive for cooking, and easy to clean).

Good upgrade to our previous Foodi grill
|Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.We've been a pretty big fan of Ninja Foodi products for a while and this one doesn't disappoint either. We upgraded our smaller Foodi grill with this one and I'm really happy with how it performs. Setup is simple. Just plug it in and it's ready to go. There are quick start guides as well as cooking guides included like usual. My initial impression was a little bit of confusion because the grill plate is the only one with the contacts for fully attaching to the machine. But a quick glance at the quick start guide tells you how each mode works with the included attachments. One complaint I do have is the volume of the beeps this thing makes. They are LOUD and piecing. I used this grill for the first time to air fry something after I had put my 18 month old to sleep (her bedroom is right next to the kitchen) and I was seriously afraid it was going to wake her up. From what I've read, there is no way to turn off or down the volume of this beep without cracking the whole thing open and removing the beeper all together and I'd rather not do that. Cleanup is also pretty easy and a lot better than the old grill. The grill plate is just a standard straight line grill as opposed to the circular grill plate with a ton of holes in it on the old grill. The 3 attachments that come with it are easy to clean and you can even put them all inside the Foodi when you're not using it so you don't need to store anything elsewhere. Other than the loud beep that you might be totally fine with, the grill performs well in all the modes. The size of the grill is bigger than our last one which struggled even cooking 2 burgers at the same time. I'm really happy with this one and can't wait to cook more on it. All said, I recommend this and other Foodi products if you're looking for some multipurpose tools for your kitchen. Being able to grill, griddle and air fry with the same machine is fantastic. If this is in your budget, I say get yourself one.

Good.. but big
|Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.So this is a great addition to our cooking tools. The grill surface can accommodate at least 6 burgers at once, which make cooking a lot easier and quicker during these colder months, when the outside grill isn't as convenient. Easy to setup and start using, plug in... set the temp... and go... it will warm up and you are ready. So far we have just use the Gril and Griddle features. and it works great. Cleanup was pretty straight forward. This is going to be a great and easy tool to use for Grilled Cheese sandwiches and other hot sandwiches. I have another air-fryer, so this particular feature is going to be used less... but I like the size and layout. I do want to try a Totino's pizza in there, as the new rectangle size of the Totino's should be perfect for this size. The Dehydration is what I am looking forward to, and haven't been able to try that yet... We grow peppers... but already used them all up this season. So really hoping to update this review after I get those two functions going. The only down sides: It is a bit on the bulky side. You may not be keeping this one on the counter all the time, and it will take up most space of a larger cabinet. I am lucky enough to have a basement with another counter, so we can keep this ready to use all the time. The other downside, is that all the parts for the unit, don't store with the unit... so we did have to keep one part of it to the side (different cabinet). Overall, this is a MAJOR upgrade to our previous indoor griddles. Going to be used this upcoming weekend for Sunday morning breakfast.

Great Multifunction Grill
|Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I have always considered Ninja products to be first rate when it comes to their innovative and high quality kitchen appliances. I became a fan when the Ninja Foodi was released. It changed the way I cook and has become a constant in my kitchen. Over the years I’ve added additional Ninja products to my cooking arsenal. The Ninja Foodi XL Pro Indoor 7-in-1 Grill & Griddle has quickly become a welcome addition. In the box you find the 1760 watt grill, the powered grill grate, the flat top bbq griddle plate, the crisper basket, the splatter shield, owners guide, and the quick start guide. The grill and all accessories have a substantial and high quality feel and appearance. The stainless steel grill really looks great and would look at home in the finest of kitchens. The control panel is sleek, simple, and very intuitive to use. You’ll find several operating buttons including the power button, start/stop, temp, time, function, and preheat buttons. The central knob is where you select the grills cooking function by turning it to grill, roast, broil, bbq griddle, air crisp, bake, and dehydrate. I was excited to eventually try all these options but for my first use I wanted to try grilling. I popped in the pro powered grill grate and installed the splatter shield. The grill grate is very nicely made with some serious non stick coating. It incorporates a built in grease catch area at the front of the grate. The grate itself snap into the grill. To remove it after cooking there is a release button located at the left rear corner of the grill. I opted for boneless chicken breast for my first test. To reduce smoke Ninja recommends a high temp cooking oil such as canola, coconut, avocado, vegetable, or grapeseed oil. I used canola to coat my chicken breasts and then seasoned them. I was able to easily fit four large breasts with room to spare. I cooked on high and set the grill for 20 minutes but planned on checking the temperature around the 15 minute point. This version of the Foodi grill has no included temperature probe so you’ll have to use your own thermometer. As grilling progressed I was thrilled to see that there was no smoke or steam produced from the grilling process. When done the chicken had great grill marks and was crispy and golden on the outside while juicy and moist on the inside. As far as I was concerned perfection on my first attempt. I was very excited to be able to accomplish great grilling results indoor in the middle of winter. About the only thing that slightly bothered me was that the the grill grate is angled so the grease runs forward into the grease catch area. The surface is so angled and so non stick that the chicken breasts kept sliding forward into the grease catch. Over the next few days I grilled pork chops, steaks, burgers, and veggies. All with excellent results. I also did french fries and chicken tenders in the 4 quart crisper basket. This accessory accommodates a large quantity of food, up to two pounds of fries easily fit. I’m a fan of air frying and the Foodi grill worked great. I also did breakfast on the bbq griddle. Eggs, pancakes, and bacon all came out great. I would also point out that cleanup of all accessories was a breeze. The Ninja Foodi XL Pro Indoor 7-in-1 Grill & Griddle truly offers a multitude of cooking options. I’ve only scratched the surface and yet I was already thrilled with the cooking possibilities. Another great Ninja addition to my kitchen.

Just make sure you know what you are buying

Great for busy family in small condo kitchen
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The thing is amazing for a busy family to make a quick dinners. Having so many features in one saves a lot of kitchen real estate for a small condo counter. We were able to get rid of a few appliances because this one has so many features. I gave it four stars because I don’t like that though bottom plate has the grill. It would be easier to clean if it was flat and the grill plate came separate.

Poor Product
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Product was not designed right, many flaws with the unit. first of all it is slanted downwards so food slides to the drip tray if grilling and when using the griddle it is the same thing, food slides to the front on unit so I had to place sliders under the front feet to make it level so food doesn't slide down.....not happy with product and of course they don't show this in infomercial...............
