Excellent video, thanks so much! I got mine last week and was rather anxious about how to clean it. Gotta love The Pink Stuff and the Sonic Scrubber!

I love it that you had Alvin and the chipmunks giving you cleaning advice in the background

Thank you this was very helpful 🙂

Great video, I’ll be adding the small brush and water spray too. I used bicarb, lemon juice and white vinegar.

Thanks for this, I’ll make sure to steam clean mine often. Going to look for a sonic scrubber as well, looks like a really handy tool. 👍🏻👍🏻😀😀

Congrats on 1K

Thanks , Thank you..Greetings from the Netherlands.

I use Krud Cutter it works excellent! No harmful fumes

It pushes off. Push the two opposing ‘corners’ and it drops off. Give it a wash and click it back on.

The new XL series has self cleaning mode n just 1lid to cook all 3 modes!!

If you mean the pressure mode, that doesn't seem to clean any black (burnt) grease that gets on the element which can make a pretty horrible smell the next time you cook. Is there another mode that's more thorough, which I've missed?

First, great video. Thanks for the detailed walkthrough. If you don't mind a question though...: Would you recommend the 'smartlid' over the 2 piece model. I LOVE my old one, but after years it is dying on me. I was planning to get the Deluxe XL model with extra lid, but then found this one. I do a lot of saucy stuff, and find that I need to wash my lid very often... Is this cleaning process worth not having the extra lid and the steam crisp?

Hi Adam, thanks for the positive feedback! I can’t speak to the double lid model since this is my first ever Ninja but from the comments I’ve been reading most people are happy to be rid of the lid switching - also the steam crisp is one of the biggest selling points and works really well. If you keep on top of the cleaning then you shouldn’t need such a thorough clean regularly as it is time consuming. So steam clean as regular as you can and then a deep clean every so often should keep things looking good 👍🏽

Hey adam which one did you end up choosing? I own the deluxe and its awesome, i would only upgrade to this if i knew the steam crisp is better than just air frying.

With the smart lid version, you clean the lid the same way. It just incorperates the pressure valve into one lid, so the cleaning process for the lid with the coils in it is the same as in this video. The pressure lid is a snap to clean by itself, since it's off the machine and there isn't anything in the way. I still prefer our Smartlid Cooker anyway though. It doesn't really get too dirty as long as you stay on top of it, and there isn't an extra lid that you need to find a place to store.

Use a tea towel & get a firm grip of it - then gently turn this way & that whilst pulling towards you at the same time…keep adjusting your grip if need be & persevere 💪🏽 it’s not difficult or tight just a little fiddly that’s all.

Make sure the seal is in place rub a little vaseline around the seal

Pink stuff is abrasive I’d use caution using that on something like this

So nothing you cook after this tastes like soap? Steaming it does that magnificent a job of removing all traces of soap from all interior surfaces? Cuz the next pressure cook, all the water condenses up in there and drips down on the food. I'm not sure how this thing can work with a non-removable lid, it seems like anything you cook, especially pressure cook, will make anything you put in next time taste like that. How can you clean all the tastes/odors from all the impossible to reach surfaces of that lid after pressure cooking? Or how do you keep the greasy coating from previous air frying from dripping down and tainting food the next time you pressure cook?

Will you come and do mine 😂😂

I don’t think it’s a good idea to use product as will never come off completely, then when you cook after that will have it in your food, better use vinegar and water spray

Takes to long got be a better way

Not sure what the hell you’re cooking in there but it’s not being done right if it t dirty, we give ours a quick wipe after every cooking session, never let it get that dirty, surprised you didn’t drop down dead of the lurg

Why stick to 750ml hot water? I’d be a devil and put more in 😈

I just can't stand people making home videos on their own kitchen with disposable gloves on! The rubber ring on the lid is coming off for cleaning.
