So far, this thing is GREAT! Used the air fry option for the first time to make egg roll wrapped pickle spears. Air fried for about 7 minutes at 400 (flipping halfway), they crisped up nicely but the ends burnt just barely so next time I will lower temp and cook a bit longer. This was a recipe fault, though, not the machine.The machine itself smelled a little of burned plastic on the first use but it went away within ten minutes.I love that it lights up when there is one minute left to your cook or preheating time! It helps grab your attention. The light and see through window is not only exciting (so you can watch your food cook in real time) but also very useful to gage if something needs to be flipped or removed sooner than recipe calls for.The unit itself vents heat very efficiently and my counter top did not get warm. Unfortunately I have to use it underneath a hanging cabinet, but I pulled it forward enough that there were no issues with overheating. I did not touch the machine to check if it gets hot anywhere on the surface, but I did stick my fingers along the bottom to ensure whatever is beneath it didn't get hot. It doesn't, so no risk to surfaces with a properly vented and situated machine.This machine heats up a lot faster than a conventional oven and does not give off nearly as much ambient heat, which will no doubt make it incredibly useful during the summer months when I want to bake without heating up my entire kitchen.I will be using the other features on this machine as time goes on and I will try to update as I do.Looking forward to using it and seeing what this machine can do with all the various recipes included in the booklet!

I am a Ninja fan and have, or have had the majority of their products. I also tend to research their products before I buy them in an effort to avoid duplication of functionality. I did buy the Ninja Speedi thinking it would be nice to cook a couple of foods at one time. I did use the Speedi a couple of times. Once to steam and crisp a whole chicken and once to air fry French fries. Both came out very well. The problem I had with the Speedi was that cooking two foods required one to be below the other and there was no way to monitor each food being cooked, and there was too much trial and error.This Combi oven is basically an upgraded Speedi cooker that is much more versatile and, in my opinion, easier to use. It has the same functions and settings as the Speedi, but the ability to open a door on the front presents a whole new world of possibilities. I have used this cooker a few times since I got it and have not yet explored all the possibilities.So, what do I love about this cooker/oven.1) It opens from the front and has a window to view food as it cooks.2) The steam and crisp function should be called a steam and brown function. I have used this function to reheat meats, such as leftover roast, chicken, etc. that had been frozen and thawed. The steam keeps the meat moist, and an external thermometer keep it from being over cooked.3) It works great as an air fryer as did the Speedi.4) The steam and crisp works as well as my more expensive Anova oven to cook leftover meats and for fish filets. For this, I use a Meater thermometer to monitor internal temperature. The steam and crisp also works well for refreshing stale bread and rolls, especially French bread. The result is a soft inside and a crispy crust.5) This oven is large enough to cook a 5 lb. chicken using the steam and crisp. For this purpose, an external thermometer should be used as the suggested times in the manual tend to overcook the chicken.6) Other than taking 7 minutes to build steam for the steam and crisp function, this oven does not require preheating.7) What I have cooked in this oven so far is done surprisingly faster than in my other ovens.8) The ability to reheat proteins, full meals, and casseroles without drying them out or changing the texture of the food is worth it's weight in gold.As with most new cooking appliances, there is a learning curve. Getting recipe ideas from the provided recipe book is a good way to get familiar with the capabilities of the Combi Oven. It should also be noted that recipes for the Speedi will work as well in this oven. Once you become familiar with this oven, it becomes easier to plan your own dual level meals. For the dual level meals that cook rice or pasta in the bottom pan, you still need to use a different bowl for serving. I sometimes use Rica-a-Roni or Knorr pasta sides that I can cook in the microwave in the serving bowl and not dirty another pan.Overall, I very much like this cooker over the Speedi and would recommend it if it supplies the functions you need. I will update this review if my opinion changes, and hope this review was helpful for you.

So far 5/6 meals made have been good. Probably the best rice I've ever seen a machine make. Plus the steam setting makes it easy to clean after preparing a meal. This doesn't replace a seasoned toaster oven. But if your in a 500sqft S'Box apartment, with limited space, it can help you save space. It's an air fryer, toaster, toaster oven, rice maker, sous vide, and broiler all in one.As a side note: There's another combo cooker we'll call the Suvie. Which wants to charge you $500 plus a forced meal plan. This unit is far less expensive and has the same functionality. With the exception of being a refrigerator. Plus you get to choose your quality ingredients. Instead of getting mystery food in a bag. Since the Combi is new there's limited recipes out there. BUT the booklet does give you some clues on how to do things. You can go to a Suvie blog and kinda guess how to do them with the Combi. So expect a learning curve.
