I have to measure my space and make sure I have the counter space.

I actually use my Instant Pot frequently.
I have an instapot but never use it....too complicated. I need to figure the darn thing out. I am also interested in a air fryer

I bought one (your second link) about a month ago, but haven't used it yet. Between my coupons and Kohl's cash, I think it was $135.

I can't tell you how many things I burn in that thing, ha! I've gotten good with grilling, but Air Fry is tricky, as is the bake.

I've tried cornbread and cakes in a small round 8 or 9 inch pan. The middle is always doughy. I was successful with brownies. ;-)

Air Fry you really have to watch closely. My french fries always get burned around the edges, while tater tots are okay!

I do like the Grill for frozen chicken breasts, but hamburger patties really shrink up!

My DH says I should pitch my Ninja in the garbage.

I'm also always setting off the smoke alarms!
If yours have a temperature control, lower the temperature. Because it's a convection oven, it doesn't need to be at the same temperature of regular oven. I've cooked chicken at 300F instead of 350F. It's usually done in 30 mins.

Yes, I do cook, bake, grill, air fry at a lower temp. I think I'm just cooking things a bit too long. The timer will go off and I'll be someplace else in the house!

I've sort of gotten the hang of it, except for baking. Even though I bake in a shallow pan, still not done in the middle for some strange reason.

Sorry Sherry, LOL!

I should have just added the link to my previous post. Everyone is probably like "what the....?" Huh????

Thanks! I had not looked at that model yet. I am guessing it takes up less room? I will need to look that one up. It is so overwhelming to look at all the different brands and features.

Has anyone made panini sandwiches in any of these models? I guess you would need to flip the sandwich halfway through to get it done. I do like using the Cuisinart indoor grill I have for panini. It presses the sandwich down between the grill plates so both sides cook at once.

I’ve had the smaller grill/air fryer in your second link for a few months. I love the grill feature! We use it almost every day to grill frozen burgers, chicken, steak, and hot dogs. I used the air fryer feature a couple of times but I have another fryer I like to use instead.

But as a multipurpose combo unit, you can’t this appliance.
