"It's MUCH easier to clean non stick surfaces (1 minute after each use). ... Takes me 1 minute to clean my Cosori with a nylon brush and Dawn."
"both baskets go in the dishwasher, which makes cleanup way easier"
"Bacon (easy to clean up afterward, bacon comes out perfect.) ... Bacons great because I don't have to clean a bunch of grease off the stove after. Tip: put a slice of bread on the bottom to absorb a lot of the great, that way its even easier to clean at the end."

"Better/stronger circulation. Food cooks faster & gets crisper. ... does a much better job"
"The Cosori dual blaze is amazing. Yeah, it could suffer from those same issues of no airflow on the bottom, but the lower burner completely removes that."
"Truly, there's a dramatic difference in the crisping and overall texture of foods prepped in the Cosori vs. Cuisinart."

"Ummm. I don't think so. Max 800 gms."
I finally got one and I got the Corsori 5.8 qt. And I love it. I just wish it had the dehydrate option .
Right! I just don’t like how loud it is. Is yours loud ?
There are two of us, we started with a 4qt, as we got to using it more and more we were quite happy when the Cosari recall upgraded us to a 5.8qt.my partner has been wanting a second one for a while to make it easier to cook two different things at once, but our kitchen wiring currently wouldn't support a second one.
I really dig my Cosori, 5.8qt.
I have a cosori and it is 5.8 quart. It will cook for 2.5 but one dish at a time. I do cook both the meat and veggetables at the same time but it is just me. I would suggest getting the toaster oven style air fryer if you want to cook for that many and a couple of dishes at the same time.
Sounds like a crappy brand combined with a gimmicky all-in-one approach. Switch over to a Cosori 5.8QT air fryer. It’s under $100 and when I had an issue with the first one I bought they sent me an Amazon gift card for the price I originally paid so I could order a new one instead of having to wait though a return. I ditched my toaster oven after about a month of owning it initially and got a counter top toaster that I keep in the cabinet just to make toast. The Cosori does everything else the toaster oven used to. Edit: I forgot to mention that the unit barely gets warm on the outside even with extended use and it’s so quiet I have to look at it to tell that it’s on when I’m more than 6ft away from it. The only gripe I have is that the beeping sound when you push the buttons is louder than it needs to be.
I've made 35 pieces in a 5.8 quart Cosori before. It just takes longer and you need to toss them several times. Just keep cooking until they look like what you want.
I have found the COSORI branded air fryers from Amazon very accessible. Make sure you get one that says smart with Alexa integration. I can start the air fryer set a temperature etc. using my Alexa devices. The iPhone app is also accessible. No regrets.
I have a single basket Cosori and have been happy with it. As mentioned, making toast in it leaves you with crispy toast. I have a $12 toaster for toast. I also have an older toaster oven that’s been sitting in my cabinet for 4 years, since I got the air fryer. I haven’t found a need for it that the air fryer couldn’t handle.
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.
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.)
