Over the past couple years, many of us have taken our cooking skills to the next level. Some have invested in fancy grills and cookware, others have tried out ambitious new recipes, and more than a few can be considered amateur chefs — or at least very polished bread bakers — at this point. Whether that's you or someone you know, you're in luck: Amazon just kicked off its early Black Friday sale on the Ninja Foodi Smart XL Pro 9-in-1 Smart Grill: it’s $220, down from $370. It works overtime as an air fryer and makes a perfect gift for both amateur and pro cooks alike.

Roast, broil, air fry, bake and dehydrate on this virtually smoke-free indoor grill. What can't this machine do?!

$268 at Amazon

It does it all: Make the perfect gooey grilled cheese, grill burgers, even air fry! It's an excellent sidekick for Thanksgiving dinner, and at the very least, acts as an extra oven for all those side dishes you plan on whipping up. It does the job of seven kitchen tools, all in one!

Reviewers are loving how easy it is to make their favorite meals a little healthier, and they’ve given it plenty of five-star ratings.

“I love using this machine!" shared a shopper. "The grilling, griddle, air frying, etc., all amazing! The smart thermometer is great too if you want to know if something is done inside without having to cut into the meat. I'm probably never going to use my oven again."

Get that barbecue flavor without busting out the grill! Shares a shopper: "Love this machine. Especially like being able to grill steaks on it in the house when it's too cold, raining or snowing outside to use the charcoal grill."

Yet another customer seals the deal, saying, "Best gift I ever bought myself. I love this! It does it all and leaves very little clean up no mess or oil spills. It's incredible...everyone needs one of these babies. And so easy to clean. I wish I had this in my life years ago."
