We've had the 8-qt foodi for about 6 months. All I can say is wow! This thing is amazing! It cooks the food in a 3rd of the time. Frozen french fries are done in 12 minutes on the air crisp setting! One of our favorites to make is Jambalaya. You can cook the rice and everything together and in about 40 minutes bam dinner for 7.  If you're on the fence about it, just buy one. You will love it!
