The Verdict — Instant Pot Duo 7-in-1 wins
For most home cooks, the Instant Pot Duo wins — simpler, smaller, cheaper, and the pressure cooking is just as good. Get a separate air fryer if you need that function. The Ninja Foodi wins only if counter space is not a concern and you genuinely use 8+ of its 14 functions.
