Ninja, the air fryer giant, is offering a £70 discount on its "game changing" barbecue, which has been praised as "better than charcoal". The Ninja Woodfire Electric barbecue Grill, originally priced at £349.99, is now available for just £279 in a limited time offer.

This deal also includes a free cover and stand when purchased from the Ninja website. The weather-resistant grill comes with seven cooking functions and can be used as a smoker and an air fryer. Its compact size makes it perfect for any outdoor space, whether it's a garden, patio, balcony or campsite.

In addition to the grill, customers will receive a wildfire pellet starter pack, a pellet scoop and a recipe guide to help them get started. Ninja promises "mess-free, hassle-free outdoor cooking any day of the week" with the Woodfire, which doesn't require charcoal, gas or flames.

It can accommodate up to eight burgers or 16 sausages at once, reports Chronicle Live. Amazon is also offering a stylish exclusive red and black version of the barbecue for the same reduced price.

The Ninja Woodfire has received high praise from shoppers, boasting an overall rating of 4.8 out of five stars on the Ninja website and 4.7 stars on Amazon based on hundreds of reviews. Customers have described it as "amazing" and "so much easier and cleaner" than a gas or coal barbecue, and perfect for camping.

One satisfied customer hailed it as "simply the best", writing: "This thing is incredible, proper searing, crunchy bits, full flavour, and the added smoke to anything you want to cook is just game-changing. Unbelievable and would recommend to anybody without doubt."

Another shopper who claimed the barbecue produced the "best burger they've ever cooked" commented: "Wow, to say this is impressive is an understatement. So much easier and quicker than using a traditional barbecue, less mess and you get that authentic barbecue smoky flavour from the wood fire pellets."

A third reviewer enthused: "I absolutely love this. It's so easy to use and everything I've cooked in it has been cooked to perfection. I recently had family and friends round for a BBQ, used this and got so many compliments about the food. It's taken all the guesswork and worry from cooking outside."

While the Ninja Woodfire has garnered high praise, with approximately 85% of customers giving it a full five-star rating, there have been instances where buyers received "faulty" units. However, Ninja provides a two-year guarantee on its products, ensuring free repairs or replacements if the appliance fails to perform as expected.

Some consumers also expressed their preference for "better pellets" that are available elsewhere, as opposed to those supplied by Ninja.

For a more budget-friendly option when it comes to getting your barbecue on this summer, Amazon is currently offering the Valiant Portable Folding Picnic and Camping BBQ for £44.99, which has an average rating of 4.4 out of five stars with over 100 bought in the last month alone.
