COSORI Air Fryer Pro Smart 5.8QT that Roast, Bake, 3-Way Control, 12-IN-1 Customizable Functions, Online Recipes, Detachable Basket, Works with Alexa & Google Assistant

I see most of the small kitchen appliances like the InstaPot, expensive programmable rice cookers and specialty ovens as gadgets that do perform well but often not well enough to make it off the shelf enough to justify the expense. Like my sous vide, it works very well but not quite as convenient as I'd hoped. I thought the air fryer was just that, a fad or craze. My initial InstaPot airfryer left a lingering plastic odor and got sent back. The Cosori was recommended and on sale so I took a chance. I've had (and frequently used) it for the last 6 months and I stand corrected.Feb 2024:Going on 10 mos now and we still use this unit for everything from biscuits to fish to french fries and the list goes on. We use it at least twice each week and it still performs to expectations. Here's the update: We wash the baskets with warm soapy water and a paper towel while letting it air dry. We've noticed that in the bottom of both the baskets, the non stick coating is starting to wear to metal. We always use rubber tongs or a plastic spatula to turn or remove food. So far it hasn't really affected to outcome but a little disappointed. I suppose I can always buy a new inner basket.We in fact, use it 2-3 times per week. Chicken wings, thighs, reheating pizza, shepherd's pie, biscuits, fish, fries, turovers, tots, french bread pizza, homemade donuts, bacon and the list goes on. Especially good for snacks (grandkids) you would normally do in an oven like taquitos, pizza rolls, mozzarella sticks, chicken tenders only much faster. Add a silicone baking dish and you expand the possibilities even more. The Cosori heats up quickly, is easy to clean and the two-piece basket is big enough to cook for 2-3 adults. I can have a meal on the table in under 20 minutes and they are delicious. I rarely give 5 stars across the board for any product but after 6 months, I've used the Cosori Air Fryer to do everything I needed it to do. I would highly recommend this product.

I was looking for an air fryer basket for my oven - then went down the path of getting an actual air fryer. I did a lot of looking on Amazon - read reviews - then YouTube reviews. I decided on the COSORI Pro II Air Fryer Oven Combo. I think it has the best features and better reviews than its competitors even when compared to more expensive air fryers.I've used it twice so far - frozen french fries. Planning on making other things in the near future. The first time - I followed the instruction on the bag of Or-Ida crinkle cut fries. Did the shake - (love the shake reminder - and that I can select or not). Checked a minute or so before the timer when off. The fries were over cooked - but still edible.The next time - same fries - I followed the Cosori cookbook guideline. MUCH better. They still cooked a bit faster than the recommended time. I'll have to play around with the time - I think I got the temp correct. The air fryer cooked them SO much faster than my oven and kept the kitchen cooler. A BIG plus on both counts.I love the removable inner basket and the outer basket that catches all the crumbs - versus just a plate in other models that will fall out when you dump out your food. SO easy to remove the inner basket. Also loved the safety latch that you must slide to remover the inner basket. It keeps you from accidentally removing the inner basket by mistake. The basket size if perfect too.The touch pad controls are easy to use and very intuitive. I didn't have to re-read the manual to use. Cleanup was easy too. Dish soap and a paper towel on both the inner and outer baskets. Dry - done.I'm planning on cooking some zucchini - and - or - eggplant in it soon. Cut into slabs - season - cook. I like both but don't cook because I didn't want the mess of actually frying them in oil in a pan and the extra oil required. I may actually get some veggies in my body with the air fryer. Will probably try some other items too.I am VERY pleased with my purchase of the COSORI Pro II Air Fryer Oven Combo. Thank you for a well thought out and designed product.

Best air Fryer. Easy to clean, cooks evenly, is a perfect size for 2 -4 people. It doesn't heat up the kitchen in the summer and is not to big to be stored away in the Pantry or cupboard when not in use. Has great functions but I do cook for less time then recipes call for because I do not want to over cook. From Pork chops to biscuits I have not had a poor meal using this airfryer. The price is reasonable compared to other comparable airfryers. We liked it so much we purchased another one for the cottage.
