Having been envious of those who owned Instant Pots and Hot Air Food Fryers, when the Foodi was released and SO MANY you tubers seen using this device in preparing their recipes; naturally, it appeared to be an ideal solution. Being fearful of using pressure cooking seems to be the brick wall. There are so many settings and buttons on R2D2, it seems very intimidating to a beginner such as I.

Suppose the necessity rears itself to purchase a Foodie cookbook and begin from there...just to avoid serving dinner to the neighborhood. Ingredients and measurements are the easy parts. The challenge comes with all the options one finds on the Foodi in how to prepare them. :)

BTW - whether fast pot or slow cooker, the pale outcome of the product has always been a turn off. Never looking quite done, the taste is not the one we’ve come to expect.

LOL! That's exactly what these guys look like. (They make neat little 'computer sounds', too.

I was afraid of them for a long time. But my husband is good at figuring stuff like this out, and I let him run it - he's having a lot of fun with it. (I have an acquaintance who says that she hasn't had a chance to learn hers because the husband is always hogging it :-)

The Instant Pot came with good instructions, and there are a lot of demo videos out there - I'm sure it's the same with Foodi.
