Cooking more quickly, easily, and deliciously has never been easier, thanks to ’s array of high-quality cookery gadgets. Anyone looking to rustle up cosy winter stews or slow cooker meals for the cold weather can get a huge saving on a FoodiPossible cooker.
Right now, you can get the very impressive down from £149.99 at Amazon (all prices correct at the time of writing). This 8-in-1 machine will massively increase your kitchen’s convenience, with slow cooking, searing and sauteeing, steaming, braising, simmering, baking and proving rounded out with a keep warm function to cover practically every need.
It’s five times more powerful than the average slow cooker, with Ninja’s Triple Fusion Heat cooking from the sides and base with steam heat for even and expeditious cooking. Its hob-style functions make for a great complement to an air fryer too, meaning you could essentially get rid of your conventional oven if you kitted out your kitchen with both.

With an 8-litre capacity, it’s got the space to easily prepare eight portions at once, whether it’s a chilli, stew, or a slow-cooked pot roast on the menu. Included in the box are the machine itself, a steaming rack, an ovenproof glass lid, an integrated serving spoon, and a recipe guide to get you started.
Amazon customers have largely fallen in love with this one, with 4.7 out of 5 stars averaged from 613 reviews so far. “This is the daddy of slow cookers,” raved one five-star review. “It’s so easy to use but is so versatile. We cooked a beef joint overnight on low and then made the gravy in the pot using the simmer function, and it was delicious. I would recommend to anyone. Great quality, well-made and excellent results.”
“This machine does everything: boils pasta and potatoes, makes beautiful stews, bakes cakes and finishes off dumplings with ease,” said another five-star write-up. “The braise function is awesome! Highly recommended.”
Another added: “I love the fact it’s a one-stop pot. Just add all ingredients, stir, leave to do its job, then on to slow cook to perfection. Easy to clean too. I thought it was a bit expensive at first but I think it’s worth it.”

There have been a few minor niggles raised, however. “I love it, but it is not made well,” said a three-star review. “The base has four little rubber feet and they come off very easily. I’ve lost one as it must have fallen off and been thrown away without anyone realising what it was. There is no reason they should fall off so easily and you cannot find replacements so it now wobbles and I need to place something underneath.”
Another noted: “Very, very short cable — wasn’t what I expected from Ninja. I’ll need to plug in an extension to use it.”
Elsewhere, the similarly-featured at Currys, so do check that out as well. If you only need something simple, the at Robert Dyas is another great buy.
But, for a massive range of features, Ninja’s hallmarks of quality, and all the bases covered that your trusty air fryer can’t manage, the is a steal at £119.99.
