Ninja cookware isn't as popular as their blenders and air fryers, probably because it's one of their newer products. Even so, Ninja sells several lines of nonstick and clad stainless steel cookware. We tested Ninja's most popular cookware lines, including nonstick and clad stainless, to find out how it performs and how it compares to other brands.
Ninja Cookware at a Glance
Here's the current Ninja cookware lineup. We did not test the Essential or the Essential Stainless because they aren't on the Ninja website and it was hard to find buying options, so they may be getting phased out. (We don't recommend the disc-clad stainless because you will get much better heat conduction from aluminum pans than from stainless steel pans.)
The Possible Pot and Possible Pan have the same build as the Premium nonstick line, including the PTFE coating. Even so, we review them separately because they have additional features than standard cookware. Some Premium sets include the option of adding a Possible Pan.
