I have a Cosori. I used it for 5 months and it suddenly stopped without warning during a cook. Heartbroken I contacted them, sent a copy of my receipt and a picture of the serial number and in less than a week I had a brand new one delivered to my door! Can't beat that. I love this thing and use it daily. Thanks for all your videos. It has changed the way I cook.

I love my Phillips air fryer. I use the “grill “ attachment most often as it’s so easy to get food out. I am a single person so don’t worry about how much it holds. A handful of fries for one is quite different than fries for a family. Most often my fries are cooked along with fish or poultry. I never preheat.

Love your videos!! So so glad I found your channel and the Cosori brand (because of you)!
I can't wait to get my new one being delivered tomorrow! Thank you for taking the time and $$$ to show us such great reviews! Your videos and recipes are so fun and yummy!! :)

My first airfryer was a Philips. It was good, but the coating went off early and the basket was not easy to clean. Now I bought a Ninja Dual Max (had to reorganize our little kitchen because of it 😂) and used it the first time today. I just fell in love with the 2 baskets 😏

Just purchased Cosori 5.8 Retro for only 83.34 on Amazon since I found the presets pretty useless on my Instant pot and didn’t want to pay for something I won’t use. Before it’s delivered this weekend I will be reviewing all of Cathy’s beginners videos. Thanks Cathy for all of the fantastic information you provide us newbies! I was looking at other brands and was really pleased how you indicated Cosori was so user friendly.

You’re a super mom. I cannot even imagine raising a beautiful big family and making all the awesome & informative videos in the same lifetime! I’m so inspired to cook in air fryer now! I purchased 6 Bella Pro Series 12.6 quart air fryers to give as gifts mainly for capacity size and price (retail $159 on sale for $69) and I like the oven style. I would appreciate your review amongst other large capacity fryers. Wishing you all the best always! And thank you for your YouTube channel

I have 3 different Ninjas - Grill, Pressure Cooker with tendercrisp and 10 in 1 Oven. Never had a smell from any of them and lots of different options and space for so many various foods, still learning to cook in them and I did just receive your cookbook so looking forward to trying the recipes in my appliances. Thanks for all the hints and recipes.

Thank you so much for doing this video! That was a lot of hard work!! Not just with the testing of the Air Fryers but the Editing too! Hats off to you! I have heard a lot of great things about the Cosori. That will definitely be my choice. Thanks again for the hard work on this one. Much appreciated!

[paulasimson]

Boy, was this ever enlightening. It really confirms my choice of the Cosori (which I bought on your recommendation, BTW!).

I owned 2 Cosori Air Fryers (same model). Immediately had problems with the basket - it didn’t slide in easy. It leaked a lot of steam around bottom of basket. One day the tray popped out on its own, while cooking. It was scary. I complained and they sent me a replacement unit. I loved it - used for slightly over a year. After each useI had to tighten screws in the basket. Finally the other day after washing (always washed by hand), I noticed the plastic was disintegrated around two of the basket screws, at it just fell apart … I couldn’t tighten. I feel bad because I loved how it cooked. I will use my Chef Curtis Stone unit … no problems with that one. Hope you have better luck with your Cosori unit.

I've been looking to upgrade my tiny little Farberware air fryer to something better and have been leaning toward a Cosori. But since stumbling across your channel I'm ready to take the plunge. The comparisons helped so much and your other videos are great too. Thanks for the tips and recipes and I'm blaming you if I gain weight. 😀

[paulaharris]

I have the Ninja Max. I love it! The instructions say to preheat and shake fries every 60-90 seconds. Fries come out perfectly. I like to spray with oil half through with a tiny sprinkling of salt. Also there is a pause button to use when you open the drawer.

Love my Vortex 6 qt so much that I bought a second! Never had an issue with any smell- cleans up like a breeze- I don’t use parchment or silicone - have never had an issue with food sticking- I can’t think of anything that I don’t like about it- I had top three brands but after watching Americas Test Kitchen do their show on fryers, with this as one of their top contenders, I was sold- I’m hoping that as frequent as I use it that they actually hold up and last

[russabuss]

This was way more helpful than scouring Amazon reviews. Thank you for being detailed but concise! Love the format

[sofializzy]

My Cosori arrives tomorrow. I did splurge for the accessories and as far as I can tell - all the pieces are functional...

I'm BEYOND excited. I would LOVE more keto recipies!

I started with a Power XL I bought from someone who didn't use it. I'm not usually the person who rushes out to buy the latest gadget, and I didn't think I would have any use for an air fryer. When people at work started talking about how much they enjoyed theirs, I decided I would give it a try, and that's when the lady at work offered to sell me her Power XL. I used it a couple of times and found I really liked the speed with which it cooked and the no/low oil cooking. So, after hours of research about the best air fryer, I settled on the Cosori 5.8 quart. Now I use it nearly every day. I cooked potatoes, zucchini, chicken drumsticks, a whole Cornish hen, cauliflower, and ham slices, and am eager to try more foods. I love this thing.

You should have tried the rotisserie basket in the air oven. Just bought a similar model and 1 lb of potato wedges cooked perfectly in the rotating basket ... 1st try total success with no shaking or stirring necessary!

[mmkonji]

Thanks for such thorough reviews! I especially appreciate the difficulty to open and the noise levels! I hope you add a category in the future on ease of cleaning. Keep up the good work!

[TheRealOtakuako]

Hi Kathy, I have an air fryer oven similar to the Instant Vortex Pro which is an Oster Multifunctional 4-in-1 air fryer oven. You really have to use the rotisserie basket for the fries. It ensures even cooking, and you don't have to shake it since the basket rotates. And yes, it will allow you to cook more using that basket.

I almost bought the Instant Pro but it was out of stock at my local store, so I went home and bought the Cosori from Amazon and I'm SO glad I did. One tip for the Cosori is you can buy a couple more of the removable baskets, that way if you're doing different items, you can have a basket ready to go in the air fryer without having to stop and wash the basket that just came out. I also recommend putting a parchment sheet on the bottom of the basket if you're using any metal accessories to protect the non-stick coating, or you can just use silicone accessories and not have to worry about scratching the coating off the basket.
