As a person who isn't naturally adept in the kitchen, I constantly seek ways to enhance my culinary abilities. While I can rustle up satisfactory meals for my family, I’m certainly not effortlessly creating gourmet dishes like Jamie Oliver.

Over time, I've experimented with various kitchen gadgets, some more beneficial than others. From slow cookers to air fryers and everything in between, I find the promise of a new appliance that simplifies cooking irresistible.

When I finally decided to invest in a Ninja Speedi, it felt like all my culinary dreams had been realised simultaneously. Exceptionally efficient and incredibly user-friendly, the Speedi is available at a 37% discount during Amazon’s Spring Deal Days sale.

Remarkably versatile, the Ninja Speedi 10-in-1 Rapid Cooker boasts multiple functions and a dual-layer cooking system. It amalgamates the features of several of the brand’s popular appliances, functioning as a steamer, grill, air fryer, roaster, dehydrator, saute pan and slow cooker all in one.

This countertop kitchen gadget is now available for just £146, down from its original price of £254.99. However, beyond the price reduction, the greatest appeal for Speedi enthusiasts like myself is the convenience of preparing a complete, balanced meal for the entire family with minimal effort, reports the Mirror. However, you can also buy the Ninja Speedi from the Ninja website for a discounted price too. Ninja has also dropped the price on its website to £146.

The same discount on the Speedi can be found on John Lewis too, where the air fryer has been slashed by the same 37%.

The Ninja Speedi has revolutionised the kitchen experience, offering “one-touch, one-pot meals” that combine a base, vegetables, and protein in a mere 15 minutes. Cleaning is a breeze, too, with dishwasher-safe components sparing you from the drudgery of scrubbing.

Not to be outdone, Amazon’s tempting deal on the Ninja Foodi Dual Zone Digital Air Fryer slashes its price from £219.99 to just £141.55. For those seeking an even more budget-friendly option, the Tefal Easy Fry Mega is currently half-price at £69.99.

The Ninja Speedi isn’t just a time-saver; it’s a crowd-pleaser, boasting a stellar 4.7-star rating from over 2,600 reviews on Amazon. One satisfied customer exclaimed: “I finally joined the air fryer revolution (better late than never! ) I love it. I cook all my veg in it, roasties, scones the list is endless - I hardly use my oven now. Highly recommended." [SIC]

Another buyer praised its convenience for meal preps: “Great for meal prep meals. Best purchase kitchen appliance ever for a busy man (or woman)."

Echoing these sentiments, a third user gushed: “I absolutely love this - we have not switched the large oven on since the day it arrived... But not only that it's just fabulous to cooking a whole meal for 2 people so quickly...and everything just comes out so crispy and tasty as all the moisture is on the inside ... brilliant little machine."

Home cooks are divided on their kitchen companion, the Speedi air fryer. One disgruntled home cook left a scathing three-star review, "Too complicated. Bulky, No good in a smaller kitchen under food cupboards, as it's top opening and to the side, so have to pull right out to be able to open. It's not all that." [SIC]

Yet for many, the Speedi has become an indispensable gadget, with glowing endorsements flooding in. A particularly satisfied customer raved in a five-star review: "Best purchase of my life. I'm writing this review a year after I bought it because of how much it's made cooking easier. I don't own a toaster because I literally use this air fryer for everything! It has grilled my chicken well, cooked rice, and I regularly use it to even heat up my food." [SIC]
