Ninja Drops Price on Kitchen Gadget That Shoppers Say Is ‘Best Ever’

Ninja has launched a huge summer sale, offering discounts on some of its favourite kitchen gadgets, including one summer essential that customers have dubbed their “most prized possession”.

The brand is best known for its air fryers, and its best-selling Foodi MAX Dual Zone Air Fryer has been reduced by £50, along with multicookers, grills, food processors and frying pan sets. But if you’re one of the millions of households who’ve already jumped on board with the air fryer, another deal on a kitchen gadget perfect for the summer months might catch your eye.

The Ninja Creami Ice Cream & Frozen Dessert Maker has been reduced from £199.99 to £179.99 on the Ninja website or is available for 99p cheaper at £179 on Amazon. The Creami can be used to make homemade treats, from gelato and sorbets to milkshakes and smoothie bowls, and comes with seven settings for different desserts, including a Mix-Ins option to add chocolate chips, cookie bits, sweets, nuts or anything else you like to your dish.

The Ninja Creami comes with dessert containers that you simply fill with ingredients and pop in the freezer for 24 hours before placing the container in the gadget for processing, with an included recipe guide to help you get started. With dishwasher-safe parts that are easy to clean and a two-year warranty, the Creami has garnered rave reviews from buyers, with an average rating of 4.6 out of five stars on the Ninja website.

One reviewer called it “the gadget you didn’t realize you had to have” and stated that it was “worth every penny”, writing, “I’ve made sorbet from a can of pineapple. Another from a can of peaches. I’ve made sorbets from a mix of frozen strawberries and raspberries. I’ve made frozen yogurt. I’ve gone crazy for cold desserts. I regret nothing.”

Another shopper raved: “Where have you been all my life? I love this machine, my protein shakes are divine – soft, fluffy ice cream that’s low in calories and as smooth as Mr Whippy. Honestly, it’s my most prized possession.”

A third customer even called it the “greatest invention ever,” adding, “What’s better than a pint of ice cream? Five pints of ice cream, and you can easily get that with this! Make it as healthy or unhealthy as you want, it doesn’t matter, it still tastes amazing.”

Another praised: “Amazing kit. I was skeptical about how good it would be but I can’t fault it. The ready-made custard makes a great ice cream, the fruit and mango puree makes an amazing sorbet and the tub of yogurt can easily be turned into frozen yogurt like you would have on holiday. As it’s dairy-free I’ve saved a ton on expensive shop-bought alternatives.”

While 91% of almost 400 reviewers said they would recommend the Ninja Creami, a handful weren’t as impressed, with some finding their products came out ‘crumbly’ or ‘powdery’. There are also more budget-friendly ice cream makers available, with Amazon’s top-rated choice being the Cuisinart Ice Cream Deluxe, which is currently on sale for £78.95, down from £100, and can also make frozen yoghurt or sorbet.

Elsewhere in the Ninja sale, another favourite that has been reduced in price is the Woodfire Electric Outdoor Oven, now £100 off, down to £249.99. This pizza maker and BBQ smoker doubles as an oven with eight different cooking functions and is designed to give your food the flavour and texture of a wood-fired oven, giving you an authentic outdoor cooking experience without the fuss.
