Hi I brought the Ninja Speedi 3 months ago and think I've used it practically every day for cooking pasta, rice, veg, fish, meat. Just can't believe how quick it cooks and so easy to clean . Think I've only used my oven a couple of times since a brought my Ninja Speedi 😃

[@OllieW501]

Hi, do you think it's more or less efficient than the oven in terms of electricity? Thanks

[@sarahfreeman3268]

@@OllieW501 yes 100% because we have no gas or oil so only use electric and because it cooks multi meals and also cooks quicker also less pans to wash so less time heating up the hot water using the hot water heater .👍

[@debramiller3165]

I love mine! I don’t like to cook but I’m enjoying it when I use the Speedi. It cleans easier than anything I’ve ever cooked with!

[@ukdnbmarsh]

i have recently bought a 7.1 Litre Tower single air fryer, its incredibly easy to use and i love it

[@czeshirecat6278]

I don’t know him, but I’m impressed by his delivery. Very pro :) Regarding the cooker. I bought one a couple of weeks ago. It’s been a game changer, even compared to my old tower one that has a rotator. It’s amazing. The only negative is removing the contents. It’s soooo fast at cooking.

[@Suavellous]

He’s a presenter on the gadget show in the UK. Infact I think this is a snippet, saw the G go across the screen. They often shoot the home reviews in a more normal format, rather than make it look like a studio.

[@junglemutha]

Yes I'm thinking the same. No handles. The item will be hot so how would I get my rice to the plate? Use a ladel/ spoon?

[@suave-rider]

he needs to manscape his eyebrows

[@firecube13]

I guess it is just like a kettle. No handle there, only the onld fashioned laddle and fork for spaghetti ​@@junglemutha

[@yutehube4468]

*It is a game changer.* Try this... put 500ml water in the bottom, then put frozen mackerel fillets on the shelf at the top. "Steam Bake" for 15 mins. I can't remember the exact time, it might only be 12 mins, you need to look in the book (frozen fish on Steam Bake is listed around the back of the book somewhere, I think under the pale blue headings) and the water does take a while to get up to temp before it starts cooking, but on the "Steam Bake" setting I think it does have a preheating phase to it (unlike just normal air frying that seems to need about 3 mins adding to any cooking time and unlike the smaller tapered cylinder type fryers that don't start cooking until they get up to temp) so it's OK to put the actual time in. *OH MY GOD the fish you end up with at the end!* Crispy brown skin and an incredible flavour. It's like I'm eating a totally different food to the usual foil wrapped oven baked fish. Be warned though - the fish does make a mess and gets a bit stuck to the shelf and it's also nearly touching the element at the top of the Ninja, but there is some clearance there. You won't believe how amazing mackerel with skin on (and I guess most other fish like it) comes out doing it this way. Never had fish like it.

[@junglemutha]

Great review as I'm trying to decide what product to buy. I want to steam my veg a lot more. I'm not a great cook. I'm looking for a combination product that does it all. No oven it broke. I have an AF so this Ninja seems to be a good choice

[@smoothsilk47]

Ninja should produce the crisping tray but with folding handle!

[@smoothsilk47]

Having now used & examined this crisper tray, if a tool was supplied which hooked & twisted into the crispers centre there would be no need to get burnt from the heat either!

[@Black_Atom083]

Maybe you can help me make a choice. I am choosing between ninja foodi(op300) and ninja speedi(on400), the main differences are that the speedi does not have a pressure cooking function and I don’t know if this function makes sense if the ninja speedi has a steam cooking function and how do I I realized the main differences between pressure cooking and steaming are only time and speed of cooking, and everything else is the same. What then to choose?

[@janetap30]

I would like to know as well

[@clairechapin5325]

I'm wondering how you get accessories for it. For baking or souse vide etc, eggs and cakes and cupcakes. I can't find accessories anywhere.

Thanks again John. It's just arrived and it's a lovely bit of kit.😊

[@fincaman2]

I have a Ninja air fryer and quite like it however I thought I would try an experiment. I have a smart meter which shows you how much electricity you are using. I put the ninja on roast at 190 and noted the reading on the smart meter, I then put the small section of my ordinary oven on guess what it uses exactly the same amount of electricity but has about 6 times the capacity !!!

[@MPD90]

This can't be true. If it's six times the capacity, to achieve the same outcome you simply have to generate more heat to fill the larger space. That's just common sense.

[@fincaman2]

@@MPD90 I measured it

[@gadgetman36]

Absolutely Ninja make the best air fryers. I have two of them. It's a game changer.

[@BlueSummers101]

Out of interest do you use them together / at the same time putting different items in each fryer, or do you use them separately using each fryer for a particular item / cooking process?

[@gadgetman36]

@@BlueSummers101 I use them individually or together, depending on what I'm cooking.

After buying the Ninja A/F 400, I havent used my oven since last Feb. I like pasta and rice though but don’t want to use my stove top because of the steam on the windows , also my COPD and too cold to open windows or door. , been researching the Speedi but can anyone tell me if it releases same amount of steam into the room please ? TIA

[@lausdeandl]

Between this and the Ninja Steam and Crisp I hardly use the hob and only use the oven for Christmas and Thanksgiving.

[@The1kotenok]

Good video, but what you not mentioning is the cleaning of inside of the lid area, actually, no one knows how to do this, no advise from Ninja themselves.... as usual...There is a huge difference between USA version and the UK version! The USA one does not have an extra cover of the heating element, whereas UK does...And all the dirt and oil gathers there, and i am not sure if this cover can be unscrewed for cleaning? Do you know , Jon?

[@NickHarman]

The US one has different settings, too.

[@jeandillon7891]

I am really impressed by your review. Thank you!

[@wendy-ir6bs]

I've just bought one can't wait to try the steam one as I've had an electric pressure cooker & I'm hoping it cooks meat especially beef the same amount of time.

[@abeerelamin6871]

Hi Wendy, have you any thoughts after trying to cook the meat? Im considering one and im not sure about its ability to cook meats like the pressure cooker.. thank you

[@DrGeorginaCook]

Would you be so kind as to provide dimensions including the lid hinge as I’m not sure that’s included in the tech spec. Wondering if it will do for my camper van.. thanks.

[@jonbentley6439]

As you face the unit I make it 35cm wide, 32cm high, and 36cm deep. With the lid open it’s about 50.5cm high. This seems very slightly bigger than the dimensions listed on the website though I can’t claim 100% accuracy.

[@magiccouponsREAL]

OMG THE GADGET SHOW I REMEMBER THE GADGET SHOW Jon is great!!!

[@davidwayne9982]

I"ve had one of these for MONTHS--and used nothing but the air fry setting. I did the setting steam nd crisp once and it was GREAT... but I'm doing carnivore- so only need the one setting.. The machine is great--- all kinds of helps... the ONLY drawback I have for it-- is there is NOT enough room in it. I have to- as carnivore- eat around a pound or more of meat at a time- and if you STACK it inside- it won't all cook correctly-- and there is not enough room to slice it and spread it out. THAT has nothing to do with HOW it works though- and that is WONDERFUL. I just wish they'd make one with like a 10inch by 10 inch "pan" inside it-- instead of the puny 7 inch one..

[@user-ii9ly6ll5q]

not in the speedi it's been fine a quick wipe does the job depending on what you're cooking of course - if not add some water and steam, will clean more efficiently

Same as a halogen air fryer/cooker , but the difference is you can see what your cooking in the halogen cooker/air fryer, a very big advantage I think not to mention the price difference.

[@toosas]

halogen cookers are great while they work, but take it from someone who worked for a large uk retailer in the past - I still recall a mountain of halogen returns in front of me due to the popped bulbs!

[@terencephillips6833]

@@toosas ..True , and why they don’t put a metal element in them I don’t know , but we had an Andrew James hinged lid one and the bulb lasted several years and it came with a spare bulb we had that thing for quite a few years and never ever again used our gas oven, I’ve got a Corsori air fryer but seldom use it there’s nothing at all wrong with it but I just don’t find so easy and convenient as my Halogen and the Halogen has a lot more space inside.

[@junglemutha]

How do i get the pot out when its hot? How do i put my rice to the plate? How do i lift the grill out. My hands are weak. No handles!

[@bp19870]

I’m a bit frustrated with it to be honest. You put a timer on it for 15mins then it spends 10mins pre heating, so it is no different to an oven. I feel like I’ve wasted £188 to be honest. I’m going to have to start preheating it while I’m prepping the food.

[@noraa2635]

I think the benefit is it uses less energy than a oven. And you can do multiple things at the same time with one applicance. Ie cook rice and chicken in one go

[@87mullan]

@RAWS420the pre heat counts as part of the cook time on the steam settings😅

I always use hot water and it speeds up the process

[@garyhilton656]

[@MarkGFRex]

Nice one Jon 👍

[@davidsworld5837]

Did you see the error at 4;32 he clearly did not have the top corner flap out so the top tray could not be put the tray in place. why did they not just put a lip around the pan so the top tray could sit on. the 4 legs are going to take weight and over time may break. But with that £229 is a Lot of money to spend when there are or should be far cheaper items that you can buy that do the same.

Any good cook knows the value of pressure cooking. I have a ninja multi cooker. It does have the pressure cooker function. I love it. Wouldn't be without it. Do not fall for this malarkey just make sure you have the multi cooker with the pressure cooker. To note I have one of the older models with a separate lid. If you drop the lid it breaks easily, rendering the pressure cooker useless. Thankfully ninja replaced mine.

Doesnt look different enough. Maybe if it acted like pressure cooker too then would be enough.

[@Taz6688]

I have watched the Gadget Show for what seems like forever, always found the reviews and testing fair and mostly accurate. You dropped the ball here, I guess all you testers live in massive mansions, we have like many small homes, Lounge/kitchen/diner, we bought the 15 in 1 machine, using it on Air fryer, meant you could hear nothing, no telly, no conversation, not even someone ringing the door. You missed the noise when cooking. We got rid of ours sadly, in our small home it was just too loud, super machine. Please if you are going to review something at least do a proper review, many of us don't have large separate kitchens with doors to close when cooking.

[@johnnyboy2268]

God that is a lot of moaning.

[@mydogeatspuke]

You sure you didn't get a faulty unit? Not being able to hear the TV or a conversation isn't normal. Obviously a mini convection oven with really powerful fans is going to make noise, they're not intended to be silent. A washing machine on a spin cycle is much louder though, so either you're being dramatic or the unit was faulty.
