Shoppers rush to buy latest £250 Ninja gadget that saves money in the kitchen

Shoppers have logged online bright and early this morning to snap up the latest kitchen gadget from Ninja. The brand launched their Speedi Rapid Cooker this morning (January 26) and has already sold out on the Ninja website.

The leading air fryer and multi cooker brand has fast become the go-to among shoppers looking to save money on their energy bills, and this fast and efficient appliance is expected to be just as popular, saving money on electricity and time on cooking.

The 10-in-1 cooker is said to create ‘restaurant-quality meals in under 15 minutes’, with a multitude of cooking functions from steaming to air frying, which are faster and cheaper than traditional cooking methods.

Ideal for families, the 5.7 litre capacity device can create meals for up to four people at one time.

The cooker has two modes of operation, with several settings on each, so home chefs can achieve multi-textured meals from their own kitchen. The settings include:

  • Rapid Cooker Mode: featuring Steam & Air Fry, Steam & Bake, Steam, and Speedi Meals functions

  • Air Fry Mode: featuring Air Fry, Bake & Roast, Grill, Dehydrate, Sear & Saute, Slow Cook and Sous Vide function.

The Ninja Speedi Rapid Cooker comes in at £249.99, and despite the hefty price tag, customers sold it out within hours. The kitchen appliance is already out of stock and Ninja has launched a waiting list for people to sign up to get one, you can sign up here.

The Speedi also includes a non-stick, dishwasher-safe 5.7L cooking pot, cook and crisp tray and a recipe guide. Shoppers who have already had early access and bought one have given it a five out of five star rating.

One shopper said: "I have been gifted the Ninja Speedi to test and I've come to realise I should have joined the club sooner! I have been using the Ninja Speedi 10-in-1 Rapid Cooker ON400UK in the last week and I haven't touched my oven or hob since.

"If you are new to the Ninja gang like myself, please don't be intimidated by the size of the Speedi, its a little bit bigger than the size of an average slow cooker. However, I've found that I can do 10 times much more with this instead.

"You can cook your base ingredients such as pasta, potatoes, rice etc in the base of the pan. But you can use convection to cook your meat, fish, tofu, veggies etc. on a higher shelf at the same time.

"I have already tried the chicken and broccoli pasta dish that is in the recipe book, which went down a storm in my house. There is also an online recipe builder, if you have ingredients at home and and you're not sure what to cook the recipe builder will help you make a meal."

Alongside the launch of the Speedi Rapid Cooker & Air Fryer, Ninja Kitchen has also launched the Speedi Meal Builder - a one-stop site full of recipe inspiration for Speedi chefs.

If you're still after an air fryer and slow cooker all in one, then Ninja have more on their website here. Amazon also has cheaper options. This Amazon Basics cooker has 15 pre-set menu options, a 5.5 litre capacity and also comes with a recipe book for £75.99. You can explore more cheaper alternatives on their site here.
