"Best non stick coating I have tested ... The non stick on the Cosori, and Instant were in a different league, and the food came out much better out of both of them."
"It's got an oven style door, opens down and a glass--wipes right off--plus the door removes easily though I've never really had to take it off."
"My Instant Vortex Plus has a removable door. So not hard to clean so far even with drippier shit"

"however in practice the food is nowhere near as good as from the Instant vortex Thisgs take forever to cook, and have inconsistent browning. ... It took almost twice as long to cook chicken from raw in the Gourmia, as I am used to in my Instant vortex."
"It's faster than an over ... you have to concentrate on cooking for a way shorter amount of time"
"The Ninja and Instant heated better, and even pre-heated better (which the Philips advertises as being particularly good at, which it's not. The Ninja and Instant were superior)."

"it’s got a rotisserie! I don’t have the shake anything"
"The fry basket rotisserie attachment alone is worth it to me."
"it has a rotisserie mode, in case you want your fries to be tumbled while cooked and a "spit" that secures your whole chicken."

"Insanely quiet. Several times I had to double check if it was even on. ... The instant wins every category ease of use, sound, looks, window etc"
"I like the window to be able to see how much more time the food needs without letting out heat or slowing down cooking time."
"I love my instant vortex for the windows"

"Mandatory preheat is still very annoying. (They force you to wait 4 minutes until it begins cooking cycle)"

"you can't use the rotisserie if you have the air fryer packed with any other ingredients, like QVC claims."

"the food out of the Cosori is much better IMHO. ... Chicken wings, the Cosori finished 7 minutes faster with much crisper skin. ... From raw frozen chicken tenders, Cosori was the only one to get a decent crispy on the outside before the internal temp got too high. ... the Instant taking about 16-17 minutes and not being as evenly cooked. ... I really prefer the Instant AF, but the food quality of the Cosori won me over, and it is going back."
"My wings went from mid and barely decent"
"400 degrees maximum heat doesn't cut it in 2024 ... Chicken wings, the Cosori finished 7 minutes faster with much crisper skin. Being able to bump to 450 made all the difference in finishing the wings. ... From raw frozen chicken tenders, Cosori was the only one to get a decent crispy on the outside before the internal temp got too high. ... I set both 2 400, and did the optional pre heat on the Cosori. I set both to 20 minutes, but the Cosori reached my optimal level of crisp in just about 11 minutes, with the Instant taking about 16-17 minutes and not being as evenly cooked."
