Arcadia Posted July 17, 2022 Share Posted July 17, 2022 Chicken nuggets or fish strips in one basket and fries or potato wedges in the other 🤣 Your model is the one my aunt is thinking of buying because she is only cooking for two and she can cook two different dishes simultaneously.

Catwoman Posted July 17, 2022 Share Posted July 17, 2022 Why would you not want to keep it? Did you have second thoughts after buying it? I don’t have that exact air fryer, but I have other Ninja Foodi products and they are excellent. I like the two separate baskets — and they are a nice size, too! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
itsheresomewhere Posted July 17, 2022 Share Posted July 17, 2022 (edited) Salmon and potatoes in one basket, broccoli in the other. It also makes great desserts. Edited July 17, 2022 by itsheresomewhere 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Which desserts have you tried? I have the 8 quart Ninja Foodi Deluxe and I haven’t tried desserts yet unless you count baking cakes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So far brownies, cookies, a couple of types of cakes, cheesecakes, and a lot of other stuff. Apple pie egg rolls are fantastic. The perfect crisp. I hate to heat the house in the summer so it gets used a lot. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was on sale at Costco one day we were there and we impulse bought it planning to do research when I got it home. Then we had one bad thing after another happen since and it is still sitting unopened in the corner of my sunroom. We want to use it, but can return if I should get something different.

Catwoman Posted July 17, 2022 Share Posted July 17, 2022 (edited) I have this one, and I liked it so much that I bought them for all of our houses. I like it because it’s pretty big and it has a window so I can see how the food is coming along without having to open the drawer. https://www.bestbuy.com/site/chefman-turbofry-touch-8-qt-air-fryer-w-advanced-digital-display-black/6414715.p?skuId=6414715 I think they also make a newer model than this now, too, but I don’t know what the difference is between them. I also air fry in our Foodi XL grill things, but more food fits into the Chefman. I have convection ovens and a convection toaster oven, but I can’t get the same results I get with a regular air fryer or the Foodi grill. I like the one you got because of the two separate drawer/basket things. I like being able to air fry two things at once, but I have to use two separate appliances to do it, which isn’t as convenient. I think you should try it, and if you don’t like it, you can return it to Costco. Edited July 17, 2022 by Catwoman Forgot something! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AngieW in Texas Posted July 17, 2022 Share Posted July 17, 2022 We use the air fryer every single day. I can't imagine not having it now. When my original air fryer died, I went out immediately to Costco to buy another one. I wasn't willing to wait a few days to do it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fairfarmhand Posted July 17, 2022 Share Posted July 17, 2022 YES KEEP IT! Frozen Corn dogs Stuffed mushrooms. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
katilac Posted July 18, 2022 Share Posted July 18, 2022 YES!! I have that one and it's great. Love, love, love the dual baskets. We use it all the time. All frozen convenience foods are of course great in it. For real cooking: Potatoes, carrots, cauliflower. Chicken, thin pork steaks, New York strip. It will save your restaurant leftovers, even sandwiches/po'boys where the bread has gotten a bit damp. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
footballmom Posted July 18, 2022 Share Posted July 18, 2022 Joining the chorus of “we use ours all the time”. I wish I could say we use it for healthy things like salmon, which I’ve heard is amazing in it, and veggies. But, the truth is it gives my older kids freedom to “make” themselves something hot to eat: taquitos, pizza rolls, toasted ravioli from TJ’s. I do make chicken wings from scratch in it and my family likes them better than take out. Saves a lot of $! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
