Title: So far so good
Review: I read the reviews before purchasing and everyone is correct about the thermometer not working, but I have noticed that if you follow the cooking temps and times that are recommended everything cooks very well.So far I have air fried pork chops, I have air fried homemade potato wedges and I grilled a few pieces of chicken. Everything came out really good. I was especially impressed by how well it cooked the meats. The pork just melted in your mouth and the chicken was juicy and delicious. The potato wedges were crispy and cooked perfectly with the recommended time and temp.I have seen a lot of reviews saying it's not a smokeless cooking experience but if you read the instructions it clearly states you should not use cooking oils such as olive oil or vegetable oil for a smokeless cooking experience. I tested it out by coating the pork and the chicken, very lightly (tossing them in a bowl) with olive oil and I had a smokeless cooking experience. So I assume people are just using too much oil if they are getting a lot of smoke.The machine it's self is slightly smaller than my small microwave, so it was a little bigger then I expected.I would say it's easy to use when the instructions are read properly.I've always had trouble cooking meats on the stove top, they never come out perfectly. I would recommend this for air frying and grilling especially if you're someone who is not particularly good at cooking meat.

Title: Life-changing, easy to use, gourmet results
Review: Literally life changing. No more heating up the place with the oven in the summer, no more waiting forever for something small to be cooked in the oven, no more stove top hamburgers due to not having a grill, and no more guessing with overcooking or undercooking meats. This literally does it all.The hype is real. The air fryer makes chicken nuggets and everything else super crunchy and tastes like it was fried, even my oven never could crisp like this. The grill cooks veggies, meats, fish etc perfectly and the thermometer cooks it to your liking (no more cutting open steaks and chicken to check). Chef-quality results in minutes. This machine is stupid-proof, meaning someone without too much cooking knowledge can turn out a professional meal easily. This is not complicated to learn, not a ton of digital menus to sort through (which was my concern at first). I took it out of the box and after a few minutes breezing through the manual, I knew how to use it.Throw some chicken wings on the grill and bam, crispy healthy wings for dinner that taste like they were fried but in reality, they are healthy and just grilled with a hair of avocado oil. Burgers turn out amazing, steak, chicken, fish, etc. Asparagus, broccolini, etc. You'll also never go back to microwaving chicken nuggets again after tasting them air fried. Also, dehydrated jerky is easy in here once you buy a small dehydrating metal rack (cut meat thin, marinate in your choice, then toss in here for a few hours and you'll have homemade jerky).My big tip is to also buy the Ninja Foodi Smart XL Grill Complete Cookbook by Mellanie De Leon to go with this, it has super delicious, easy to follow recipes, from basic to more flavorful, all within it. The best part is in the back of the book, there's a chart with settings and time to use to learn how to cook different things, which is a necessity when learning how to use this. Buy this cookbook!This applicance has made my life so much easier and was the spark of inspiration I needed when I was getting bored of cooking and running out of ideas to keep meals new and fresh. This is also very easy to use and not complex at all. Buy this with the cookbook and you're set!

Title: Wish I would have bought sooner!
Review: I saw this Ninja XL 6-in-1 on Prime day for a great price so I decided to give it a try. I'm so glad I did! I've had it for several days and have used it in some capacity every single day now. It's easy to use, preheats fairly quickly, tells me when to "add food", and the settings are easy to use on the front screen. I'm still figuring out how to convert the temp/time on food packages to what the Ninja settings should be, but I've learned that the temp setting should be lower and the time to cook is shorter than package instructions. For example, tube biscuits that per package instructions take 13-17 minutes in a regular preheated oven only took 8 minutes in the Ninja. Cleanup is a breeze and so far, nothing has stuck to the baking pan. The odd thing is that there is NO temp setting between 375 and 390 so that leaves somewhat of a trial & error mission when deciding which temp to set. It's a little bigger than I had thought so I had to rearrange a few things on my counter, but I know I'll use it regularly so it will stay out. I plan on buying some accessories to go with this because I think it's so versatile there's probably not much that wouldn't work in here on either roast, bake, broil or air crisp. I'm only cooking for myself, but the surface area and air fry basket are large enough that it would accommodate a larger family for fries, burgers, chops, etc. I love this and I'm so glad I purchased it. I definitely wouldn't have paid the regular price but if you can find a deal on it, I wouldn't hesitate because I don't think you'll be disappointed. It's a great little grill/fryer/baker.

Review: Used it a few times. The grill function with the lid open is very handy when adding cowboy butter to your steaks. Gets hot enough to put nice grill marks on it. Griddle fits over the grate and has ridges that lift it up so it doesn't slope as much. This model can use the bottom heater and upper to cook faster.
