COSORI - Dual Blaze

Total noob, here. My Cosori Dual Blaze arrived Monday. I did ftozen sweet potato tots first, frozen hash browns next, then did two skin-on Salmon filets, and today I air fried italian sausage before dumping it into sauce for spaghetti. So far I love it. It didn't stink up the house when I "test" ran it empty to get it ready for food. It's not too loud, the fan makes some noise. It's ceramic coated with a removable grill plate and easy to clean. It's 6.8 qt. pretty big, but I haven't had any problems cooking for two. It was $100 from Walmart during black friday deals. Good luck, I read a lot of posts here before I bought.

We also have the 6qt Cosari and love it. It was a nice upgrade from the 4ish qt. That said, even with only two of us we often wish we had a bigger one. I have an 8qt on the way.

Imali smo iz Lidla XXL 2150 A1, 5.2L. I za prvu fritezu je bila sasvim ok, za pomfrit, medaljone, piletinu ispeci na brzinu ili slicno, ali nakon dvi godine se vec poceo skidati onaj premaz u kosari, pa smo se odlucili za novu. Sad smo uzeli s Amazon.de, Cosori Hot Air Fryer XXL, Dual Blaze, 6.4L s dva grijaca i mogu reci da je dosta bolja od ove iz Lidla, sve je ravnomjernije peceno. Pomfrit je odlican, medaljoni, riblji stapici, piletina pecena, cevapi, smrznuti kroasani itd itd.

My air frier is basically my most used appliance. So much so that I'm shopping for a second one, because my biggest frustration is that I can only do one thing at a time. I really like my basket style Corsori. If I could go back though, I might get a dual drawer version. Now, I'm thinking about adding a toaster oven air fryer hybrid, so that I could use it for different things. Things I use it for the most: * Roasting Veggies (especially carrots and asparagus. It's so easy, and they're the best you'll ever have.) * Frozen foods (I no longer use the microwave because I can really fine tune it in the air fryer and it just tastes better.) * Chicken (makes the easiest and best drumsticks I've ever made, just throw together a really simple marinade and you're good.) * Bacon (easy to clean up afterward, bacon comes out perfect.) * French Fries (Just put them in some avocado oil, put some salt on them right when they're done, and you'll have some of the best fries ever.) * Baked Potatoes (It's just so easy.)

Ja ti imam Cosori Premium, ma da ti je moja preporuka da ides na Cosori Dual Blaze zato sto ima dva grijace sa obje strane tako da nemoras okretati kada peces nesto.

I bought Cosori Dual Blaze. There is a heating element also in the bottom so you don't have to shake and stir your food when cooking.

I am trying to decide between the Dual and Turbo and would like to hear about your opinion :) Why did you choose against Dual blaze, could you please share?

I had the same issue with Dual blaze and returned it.

Please write back when you have your experience with the Turbo Blaze. I am trying to decide between the Dual and Turbo and would like to hear about your opinion :)

Thanks for sharing. In case it helps you: I already got a dual blaze after a long time of research. Specifically went for dual blaze because of the duality of the elements. But, I can confirm that (similar to the other's experience that you can find online), I do not think the below element is doing much. At least I did not see a gigantic "roasting/frying" underneat my foods. Most (if not all) of the fried side was the top, nothing below. The touch screen of my dual blaze had a problem, so I returned it. Now, I am thinking about choosing between the two again.

i have the dual blaze,so there is a heating element at the bottom. most of the time I don't bother with the grate so I just have one thing to clean.

We had a Cuisinart 7 in 1 toaster oven and I really liked it. My wife likes to have the counter clear of anything that doesn't give a curated look so we got rid of it after 7-8 years. It did a good job of air frying and toasting. After I retired, we updated several things in the kitchen including getting a basket air fryer (Cosori). It does a much better job of frying frozen foods and toasting Uncrustables. The tots and fries are really good and crispy. We also got a $20 toaster off Amazon for just doing bread/bagels/English muffins. The air fryer and toaster get put away when not being used which we couldn't do with the toaster oven. I still need to pick up a silicone liner for the air fryer but got a ton of paper liners to go thru before then. The Cuisinart was about $120 US (think we got it on sale for about $100. The air fryer is $90 right now. I like the Cosori better than the Cuisinart. It is easier to clean. The glass on the toaster oven ended up with a lot of baked on grease staining it. I scrubbed very hard and only got a little off before we sold it. Buyer was replacing same model that they used until it died and loved theirs.

Had my dual blaze for 3 years of at least weekly use and love it. Many times I even take the rack out and put down foil or parchment to ease cleanup. Don't think you can do that with the single heating element though. Thoroughly cleaning the crevices of the rack can be a huge PITA.
