In this economy, we need versatile kitchen appliances that make our lives easier, not harder (with bonus points if it’s on sale). Lucky for you, the user-loved, “ridiculously helpful″ Ninja multi-cooker is a jack-of-all-trades device that won’t just earn its place on your counter; it will earn its place in your heart. “This is ‘spoons down’ one of the best - if not THE best things I’ve ever purchased for my kitchen antics,” Rose Garretson wrote. “I love this.”
Multifunctional is the name of the Ninja’s game. Plus, the removable, oven-safe pot can be used almost as a Dutch oven, for baking and serving.
Choose from the eight built-in cook settings to braise, cook, sear or sauté at up to 400 degrees, or remove the pot and lid, which are oven-safe to 500 degrees. You can even use it to proof bread.
The brand says the machine replaces the need for up to 14 tools and appliances, including a steam oven, food warmer, nonstick pot, sauté pan, cast iron skillet, saucier, steamer, stock pot and bread maker.
“I’m convinced the only thing it can’t do is my taxes (though I haven’t fully tested that theory),” BarbaraS wrote. “It’s like having Gordon Ramsay, Ina Garten, and your grandma’s secret recipe book all trapped inside one shiny pot.”
