Cosori - Pro Gen 2 5.8 qt Smart Air Fryer, CS169-AF - Black

This AirFryer has it all and is really the one air fryer you need. Previously, we had a smaller one and while it was nice to have something compact, there wasn't adequate room for stuff to properly air fry and some things just didn't fit at all. This one has plenty of room but isn't too big to leave sitting out on our counter. And this thing is feature rich! It has all the features you'd expect of any good Air Fryer such as temperature control, pre-heating, timer, Keep Warm, and lots of presets. But this being a smart air fryer it takes things a step further. All presets can be adjusted to your most used preferences. Many presets include an automatic shake reminder because things such as french fries or tater tots require that half way through you pull the basket out and shake them up and replace it. It's easy to get busy and forget to do that, but not with this machine since it will remind you! Additionally, this Cosori air fryer connects to your WiFi and then to the VeSync app which lets you monitor and control some things inside the app. You can start pre-heating your Air Fryer on your way home. You can choose presets or manually set the temperature. You can see how much time is left. All from your phone wherever you are in the house! Additionally, you can connect the app to your Alexa or Google Assistant and can you use your voice to find out how much time is left or to start air frying which is super cool and more useful than you may think. Overall, we are really satisfied with this Air Fryer. It has adequate space inside for many different types of food items, but doesn't have too big of a footprint on our counter. It has all the settings you could imaging or want for a great Air Fryer. It does a great job of cooking the food exactly as you'd expect and want an Air Fryer to do. And it has some really great smart features such as the shake reminder, the connected app, and even voice control via Alexa/Google Assistant. I can't imagine anything else I would want in my perfect Air Fryer!

The Cosori Pro Gen 2 538 Quart air fryer comes well packaged with everything you need. You even get some extra accessories other air fryers do not provide. You get the air fryer, a recipe book, a quick reference guide, some metal skewers, a metal rack and a user manual. What I really liked: -

I'm liking this air fryer a lot. It came very nicely packaged and they included a grill and metal skewers and a recipe book as a bonus! Setting it up was easy. They recommend washing the inner pans and then doing a "test run" without any food. I definitely did that, as it got rid of any "new product" smell. Then I downloaded their app and set it up. At first you create an account, then you have to connect to the wifi network the fryer creates. From there you can enter your home's wifi credentials and you are done. Now the fryer connects to your home's wifi. If you do so, the app will send you alerts whenever you are cooking (like an alert when preheating is done, if you need to shake-turn over your food, cooking done etc). You can also search recipes within the app itself. I love that it has a preheating function, this helps the cooking process. It has several preset buttons for different types of food (each one you can customize to your liking, like the cooking time, temp) like meats, poultry, veggies, fries, fish etc. Some of them already have a shake alert, that will let you know halfway that you have to shake your food for even cooking. It's highly recommended that you oil up your food a little bit, or even better you can use a spray can of oil, which is what I do. Anything you can fry with oil, you can fry with this air fryer, cutting down on unhealthy oils. I have done asparagus, fries, breaded chicken breasts and so far all of them have come out amazing, highly recommend it if you want to eat healthy! Finally, I love that the inner pans detach, for a very easy cleaning. They are machine wash ok, however I highly recommend you hand wash the pans, they are easy to clean as they are non stick. If you hand wash them gently they will last you forever! They are plenty big to, tons of space for food! I was also nicely surprised they include a set of metal skewers and the grill stand they go on as a bonus, I'm definitely going to fry me some yummy chicken breasts and veggies skewers! Get it and start eating healthy!

i love this airfryer . it doesn’t look big and chunky, easy to clean and it cooks perfectly

The Cosori Air Fryer 5.8QT Pro Gen 2 5.8 qt. Smart Air Fryer is versatile, ease to use, with adjustable temperature control and easy to clean. Overall, I am highly satisfied with this purchase and consider it an essential kitchen appliance for health-conscious cooking.

Loved this airfryer, had this one as a replacement to another brand. Then upgraded to the toaster oven airfryer. Absolutely love.

i have this for over a year now and have had zero issues with it, it heats up pretty quick and is super easy to clean. The only thing I wish was possible was to make the beeping when pressing the buttons and the beeps it makes when done a bit quieter. Overall good fryer for the price

Works Excellent for all different foods - Easy to read display and easy clean up!

So I've used this Cosori Smart Air fryer for a few meals, and it is a fairly good and intuitive appliance. It's functionality and design are nice, with the brushed satin black exterior, and well thought out user interface. Though, it is still the exact same design as almost every single air fryer. Coil on top with a fan that flows down and circulates air out the back. I took a star off due to how they vent this. It goes straight back, which is annoying as it just heats up the underside of my cabinets and wall. I had another brand that vented it up. That one I could put under my range hood and it vented perfect without all the extra heat in the house that these produce. The app is nice, you're able to set the temp and time, as well as getting access to basic cooking instructions per certain meals. Overall, it's completely unnecessary, as you end up having to put it in anyways and set the time. I suppose it could have some use I'm stopping something from overcooking, but realistically, even there you'll want to check the food prior to stopping. Ultimately, it's a lazy way to sit on the couch and check how much time is left on whatever it is that you're cooking, but I would never advocate for leaving any appliance unattended. So again, a useless feature to me. What really sells this is the design, for those that are tired of basic black and/or stainless. Otherwise, it blends in with a highly saturated market of like air fryers.
