Ninja Foodi 11-in-1 SmartLid Multi-Cooker 6L OL550UK

The Ninja Foodi SmartLid solves the multi-cooker's most awkward problem — the separate, where-do-I-put-this air fryer lid — with a single hinged lid and a three-position slider. Slide left for pressure cooking, centre for combi-steam, right for air frying and grilling: eleven cooking functions, one lid, no storage juggling. The 6-litre pot covers family-scale cooking, and the headline workflow is Ninja's SmartLid Combi: pressure cook a whole chicken tender in 35 minutes, then slide across and air-crisp the skin golden in 10 — results that neither a pressure cooker nor an air fryer achieves alone. Steam-air-fry mode does the same trick for frozen food, keeping the inside juicy while the outside crisps. Functions run the full deck: pressure cook, air fry, grill, bake, dehydrate, prove, sear/sauté, steam, slow cook, yoghurt and the combi-steam modes. The cooking pot and crisper basket are non-stick and dishwasher safe. At £198 with 4.6 stars from over 2,100 buyers, the SmartLid is the maximalist's multi-cooker: the one appliance that genuinely covers pressure, crisping and everything between — provided you can spare the worktop space for it.
