Anyone own it? Do you like it?
I have a pressure cooker already. Otherwise I might be interested in it.

I haven't looked at it yet. Having two pressure cookers comes in handy, though. I have two and often cook in both at the same time.

Default InstaPot on Roids?

So there's this on Amazon:
https://www.amazon.com/SharkNinja-OP...r=8-2-fkmrnull

What's interesting to me about it is that it is basically an InstaPot PLUS an air fryer. I like the idea of the air fryer/crisping option. Anyone use one of these? The reviews on Amazon are very good.

I started looking at InstaPots because my 20-year-old crockpot needs to be replaced, and I thought that might be a nice route to go. But this SharkNinja thing is very tempting.

Anyone know anything about it?

Instant Pot. The Ninja multicooker that I know anything about is huge. That for me is a turnoff. My Instant pot 6 qt. is big enough for me. In fact, I enjoy using my IP mini which is a 3 qt.

But the Ninja is quite handsome.

I'm glad I'm not the only one with the pet peeve.

Well, I have a pretty big (decrepit and out-of-date) kitchen and I will have more space if I only need one item. And the 8 quart one will be nice for the batch cooking that I'm into these days. So size would not be my issue

Yeah, it is kinda studly, isn't it?

Of course, I'll get one and then they will immediately come out with something that includes ALL this PLUS sous vide capabilities. But that's just the paranoia talking...

Yes. I am sort of desiring the latest Instant Pot—the Max. Which is foolish. My Duo is really perfectly fine for me.

I think you should buy the Ninja and report back. Studly is a good adjective. It is a He man type of appliance.

Ha, ha. You might actually fall for Mr. Ninja, if he could cook your dinner in 30 minutes or so.
