    Fantastic helper, I am cooking 5 day’s a week with it, (my wife cooks for weekends), lunch for family of 4 with meat (chicken, pork, beef, fish or seafood) and side (rice, potatoes, spinach, pasta, quinoa, e.t.c.) on “Speedy Meals” program, with out any oil (only butter for potatoes). We all love it.

    Omg, it is like a magical science experiment every night. Have you ever bought a miracle kitchen appliance and never used it? Not the Ninja Speedi. Up to 4 people can be fed an entire perfectly cooked dinner in 20 minutes in one pot. Bagels? 2 minutes perfectly. Meatballs, 6 minutes steamed then crisped. Take your leftovers to the next level. But wait, there's more. Crusty italian bread from scratch in just under 2 hours There is a menu maker on Nina's website to learn the basics. I had to rush the bread, if you understand baking, you can figure out the longer proof for bigger holes in the bread.

    This is the all in one motors, purpose only cookie you will need. Has the capabilities of cooking and all different ways, bake, broil, steam, crisp, air fry and dehydrate. Does multi cooker can cook meats/protein and grains rice/pasta at the same time. This is the last and only cooker needed in your arsenal. Before this purchase although I was skeptical, I was utilizing air fryer and pressure cooker. This is all in one.

    We love this product!!! We air fry almost weekly, if not more often. I use the saute function weekly as well. It’s so easy to clean up and there’s no splattering and mess! We fry bacon on air fry and then use the grease to fry eggs in the pan too! Potatoes fry amazingly well and baked potatoes are, well…speedi!!! We wish there was a bigger Speedi as we are a family of 5. Only downside, the pan is already losing its non stick and it’s nearly $30 to replace. Clean up is easy-squirt dawn in pan with water and steam the Speedi clean!

    I went to best buy to get an air fryer and i got it alright. I Cook chicken breast, salmon, scabled eggs ect anything you want to make. The sky is the limit. I even made Alfredo pasta. The pot is easy to clean but the ceiling of the machine is more challenging to clean up.also the meals are ready in a really short time. About 15 to 20 minutes. I could totally get rid of the stove and i wouldn't miss it with this machine and im 100 % serious on that.

    You have to buy this if you're impatient, lazy, want to save on your energy bill, live in an apartment, or all of the above. Only unfortunate thing about it is if you do need to open it halfway through and you care about timing it can be hard to account for timing on the preheating.

    I’ve used this product 8 times since we’ve gotten it. It is the easiest to use ever! The only problem I’ve found with it is cleaning the top portion of it. I bought a baby bottle brush to clean it and it’s easy since then.

    I have multiple Ninja small kitchen appliances and I have never been disappointed with one of them. If this is your first Ninja acquisition, you are in for a treat! Because it is so versatile, it can be used for just about every recipe you make. You can do everything in the same pan, and it easily switches over from one cooking method to another. I love that it cooks food faster and requires less attention because I am always multitasking. I can stay home and prepare a 3-part nutritious, homemade meal (carb, vegetable, protein) in less time than it takes to go out and be served. One of my biggest gripes is that most kitchen small appliances only have a single function and take up valuable real estate on my kitchen counter. For that reason, many of my single function kitchen appliances, such as my slow cooker and steamer, are ensconced on a shelf in the basement. The Ninja Speedi Rapid Cooker gets a coveted spot on the counter because it combines multiple functions in one appliance, and I find myself using it so frequently. Unpacking the cooker from the box you will find the cooking pot and multi-functional crisper tray. The crisper tray has legs you hide for the bottom position in the pot or pull out for the elevated position. The Ninja Speedi Rapid Cooker has a SmartSwitch to change cooking modes. The Rapid Cooker is used for the Speedi Meals, steam & crisp, steam, and proof settings. With the Air Fry/Stovetop, you can air crisp, sear/sauté, sous vide, slow cook, dehydrate, bake/roast and broil foods. The beauty of the cooker is that you can do everything in the same pot. It easily switches over from one cooking method to another with the handy dandy switch. No swapping tops. Even better, the pot and crisper tray are nonstick, dishwasher-safe accessories. I made several items in the Speedi to test out the different functions: herb crusted salmon with quinoa and peas (Speedi meal), parmesan chive potato wedges (steam & crisp), banana bread (bake & roast), french fries/tots (air fry). My favorite was the chicken and rice fajita bowl https://ninjatestkitchen.com/recipe/chicken-and-rice-fajita-bowl/. The banana bread came our darker than I wanted and dry. I’ll try the steam & bake next time. Be sure to skim the Owner’s Guide and Quick Start Guide for an overview of the functions and valuable hints and tips to avoid damaging the cooker. This video offers the tip to use tin foil under the protein so you don’t have to clean up the crisper tray https://fb.watch/f0N5ft1Hrj/. The Quick Start Guide & Recipe Book quickly became my bible. The single sheet of Fav Speedi Meals and Build Your Own Speedi Meals is very helpful to keep handy. However, the piece de resistance is the 60-second, online recipe builder at the Ninja Test Kitchen site. https://ninjatestkitchen.com/speedimealbuilder/. If you search Speedi under All Recipes, you will filter only those used for this cooker. While making “bowl” meals is so popular right now, there are other categories of recipes (desserts, side dishes, breakfast) and recipes that are gluten-free, kid-friendly, etc. People are uploading videos of their recipes on Facebook and the Ninja Foodi Community https://www.facebook.com/groups/TheNinjaCommunity/ has multiple posts about it and the Salted Pepper created the Ninja Speedi Rapid Cooker Recipes & Tips https://www.facebook.com/groups/ninjaspeedi/ private group. I want to mention that some of the recipes require additional accessories that do not come with the Speedi Rapid Cooker. I purchased the Ninja multi-purpose round baking pan and loaf pan. If you have an 8-in round baking pan, you can use that. I completely recommend the Ninja Speedi Rapid Cooker: not just for those who want to prep and cook delicious meals in less than 20 minutes, but also for those who want to air fry, bake, broil, and more. As it doesn’t have the pressure cooker function, it is a more economical version of the Ninja Foodi.

    This is an air fryer and instant pot all in one, which is great. No longer do you need two devices to make some rice and chicken, you can do it in one. And once you get the recipes, it only takes 20 min for a decent meal. My only issue with the Speedi is how to find receipts. There is the ninja kitchen website that has a meal maker, but when you put in what you have it only tells you how to make that and not give ideas. I would like to input a few ingredients and then get some ideas of what to cook. If you do go to look at recipes, at least when I started using the product, there was no way to filter down to the speedi and instead it is a mix of all the ninja product and when you click into the recipe it tells you what product to use. Because of this you must use the paper manual (which I tend to lose) or spend a lot of time trying to use the website. Once you overcome the issue and fine a few recipes that work, making the meals is great. I made a nice crips chicken that was still juice with rice and beans. Had I done this in a pressure cooker, the outside of the chicken would not be nice, and it would be mixed with the chicken. I did end up burning some things when using the wrong setting too. I would recommend this especially if it becomes easier to look at the ninja kitchen website to find what to cook. Or just suffer through a few expedients to figure it out.

    I love products from Ninja and own several of their appliances which get used every day or week such as the Ninja Foodi TenderCrisp pressure cooker, Foodi Power Blender, and Foodi 5-in-1 Indoor Grill. Being very happy and satisfied with all of our Ninja goodies, I was looking forward to trying out the company’s newest gadget – the Ninja Speedi Rapid Cooker & Air Fryer. I’m happy to report that my expectations were fully met and the Speedi did not let me or my family down. Just like our Ninja Foodi TenderCrisp before it, the Speedi is easy to set up and use, and it churned out delicious meals consistently and reliably, from air crisped French fries, medium-rare steaks, steamed and juicy asparagus, and steamed white rice. The company provides both a quick guide and a recipe book that encourages you to explore new dishes and recipes that are very helpful and time-saving. For more inspiration, you can check out blogs and sites like Youtube. The footprint the Speedi takes up on the kitchen counter is similar to the Ninja Foodi pressure cooker but it’s much lighter and easier to handle. The 6-quart bowl and crisper tray are easy to wash and clean. The Speedi is perfect not just for people like me who are somewhat culinarily inexperienced but for the kitchen pros as well. It makes preparing meals just so easy, simple, and fast – a huge plus for me since I’m busy almost every day with my full-time job, raising our elementary-grade daughter, and three pets to take care of. It’s a 5 Star Win~!
