I have the 6qt one and it's been amazing to us the last 2-3 years. I wanted a bigger one when I make soups, especially dishes like Pho for my Vietnamese Food loving foodies. The only criticism I have is that the air fryer lid is a pain to clean.

For $100 it is a no brainer to buy. I bought another one to put away for if/when I need another one or give it to one of my kids.

Actually glad we got the 405 or we never know the difference.

is it just those two functions missing? and you prefer the 405 because of the metal lid? debating if I wanna switch it out. we don't need sous vide and reheat can be done so many alternative ways
Already got rid of the box though
Oh well, maybe can yell at Walmart to get some kind of discount
EDIT: Yea got a 10% refund. big woop
Oh well I don't think I'd use the other 2 functions, and the hassle of returning and exchanging this big ass thing sounds awful lol. Plus I'd already discarded the actual box so the logistics were annoying.

Complained to Walmart that I wanted the 12 functions, not 10, and they gave me 20% discount.
Decided to keep the 405 after all. I didn't realize until afterwards that it came with more accessories - I actually love the crisper bucket and additional 2 story rack that comes with it.
Also, why do some prefer having an actual basket? Because it seems without the basket you get about an inch more room by using the pot as the basket.
I'm thinking replacing the non-stick pot with stainless steel and the non-stick basket/plate with a mesh stainless steel basket. Has anyone done that?
We have the Ninja Compact 6.5 and ordered this one as an upgrade. We were exited to get it in 2 days but upon opening the boxes it looked like the crisping lid, without the grate, was missing, and there were no accessories. I did not pay any attention to the features, just boxed it up and sent it back for a return. It took about 2 weeks to get the replacement. Upon opening it we thought we had the correct one since it had the metal grate for the cooking lid and the accessories. I guess I initially received the 401, sent it back, and received the 405 as the replacement.
I think we will keep the 405 and be happy with it, especially for the price.
Thanks to all of those that have researched and are contributing to this thread.
