Few months ago, I binge watched your videos and ordered a Cosori airfryer. My only regret is, I bought the smaller one because I wasn't sure I would like it. I use it almost daily but the best thing about the airfryer is cooking bacon. Thanks for all your videos.
I have the 2 drawer Gourmia air fryer and absolutely love it. I cook for 1. The only thing I do NOT like about it is the rubber feet on the trays break or just fall off.
I learned everything I know about air fryers from you! I love my Cosori Dual Blaze. The first one I got started “glitching” and Cosori replaced it at no charge! They stand behind their product. I love not having to shake the food and flipping sandwiches. I fill the tray holes with foil.
I have a toaster oven airfryer because I wanted a little oven for the two of us. It’s taken me quite awhile to understand it and it has limitations. I do have a lovely set of pans and I use my smaller casserole dishes. I don’t want to clean the whole thing every time. Still love my slow cooker, microwave, cooktop for many things. When it comes time to replace it ideally a new one would have an element top and bottom. I do enjoy your videos, Cathy 😊
i bought a Gourmia 6 quart about two years ago. Inexpensive, but works great. Just bought a newer, 8 quart model for my granddaughter for xmas. It has a glass window. I wish it were mine!
I have the Cosori dual blaze (and I love it). I buy the precut circles of parchment paper (3 or 4 inches in diameter - the ones for small round cake pans): if I want to use the crisper plate, but have food that might fall through the large holes in the center, I just stick one of those on. Though mostly, for small pieces of food, I just use the basket without the crisper plate. I really like being able to add a short broil cycle at the end of cooking to get extra browning. Some people put fly-away foods (i.e., quesadillas) in the basket and then put in the crisper plate to keep them from being blown up into the element - I tend to use a small rack. I admit removing a hot crisper plate is awkward, but that is why the holes are there to grab onto (with a cloth or an airfryer plate gripper).
I've been using the Hamilton Beach air fryer oven for years now and have never had a problem with it. They even sell replacement cooking pans and racks that come with the oven, if you want more, or just need a replacement for some reason. I've got Cathy's cooking charts hanging above my air fryer oven, and I've only had to use it once. Because their presets have all worked perfectly for everything I've cooked in it over the years. I can even put small cooking pots and pans in it in case I want to bake something like a cake or casserole or even a pot roast. It's not too hard to clean. I just spray it down with that ultra Dawn power spray, let it sit for an hour and wipe it all out. All the racks and the bottom pan can go into the diswashwer if I want. The price for this oven won't break the bank either. The only drawback I have with this, is I wish it was 2 inches wider, so I could fit a normal sized small baking dish in it. Other than that, I'm super happy with my air fryer oven from Hamilton Beach.
Given the temperature that an air fryer routinely operates at, any PTFE coating will be hazardous as sit breaks down inside of half of year of near daily use. Always look for an air fryer with a ceramic coating.
Thank you Cathy for these reviews! Love your videos and recipes. I bought a Cosori and rarely use my microwave anymore. I am going to try a Midea as I think the basket style does not work for me anymore and I like that it has an oven style surface to cook in.
I've been watching your videos for some time now, and like this one they're usually quite informative. But there's one thing that you seem to have overlooked that I've found to make air frying (and cooking in general) so simple: wireless temperature probes you buy separately. With them, there's no longer any guesswork in terms of whether the cooking is done (although the correct temp setting is helpful to avoid over-browning, and proper placement is important for accuracy). Since the best of these probes work with one's cell phone, you're no longer tied to the kitchen to monitor cooking. And one more point: you mentioned that the large Typur Dome won't cook a whole chicken. That's likely true unless you use the trick I use for my large pressure oven: split the chicken on one side and fold it open flat. That produces more even & faster cooking and better crisping. Keep up the great work.
Hi Richard! I have used the MEATER in some of my videos actually! I like it for larger cuts of meat (but now just use the dreo in those instances). Thanks for the tip about the whole chicken... yes, I think that sounds like the spatchcocked chicken!
@@empoweredcooks The Dreo is great (albeit a bit pricy). But for the 99% of the air fryer world with less high-tech fryers like me (and I have 3), an inexpensive, accurate and convenient set of wireless probes can be a real improvement on their cooking experience. I know it was for me.
@@bikeny That sounds like some kind of kinky sex move. I just decided it was easier to open the chicken than tying up the bird on a rotisserie with string yet getting the same crispy skin all around, and possibly saving a few minutes of cooking time.
With the Typhur Dome having such a shallow basket I guess the food is pretty close to the heating element. Any issues with smoke when cooking fatty proteins like wings at 400-450 degrees? I agree with you that horizontal space is more important than depth. More than twice the price of most other fryers is a big negative.
Needed this two days ago! 🤣 Arrived last evening! At least it’s still unopened. Actually two weeks ago. Bought one I’m sending back for poor performance. 😭 I was afraid of Teflon so I bought a Ninja because it has ceramic coating but I don’t like it. Just replaced with an instant Vortex and am afraid of the Teflon. Glad to know about the Typhur. But yikes on the price! Not sure about that!
Hey kiddo!!! I watched this just because I enjoy you so much and you always remind me of some trick I’ve forgotten…you steered me to the Cosori 5.8 in 2022… I still love it and use it three or four times a week if not more…because I’m basically a lazy cook 😅, I use the parchment liners to help with cleanup…have a wonderful Thanksgiving with your family and hope you will have them all home together at least to eat for their star ratings!!!😂🥰
Hi Gail! I am glad you are enjoying your Cosori still! I hope you have a wonderful Thanksgiving too! :) I will have everyone except my daughter and her hubby and baby :( - but looking forward to TOGETHER time! :) Take care!
@Empowedred Cooks are you going to make a video about which models to avoid? I’m sending a Ninja back for poor performance and the fact the drawer front still smells toxic, and I have the replacement Instant Vortex Plus unopened in my kitchen. Bit worried about it’s Teflon and also the odor reviews. Is it one to return? Can’t afford the Typhur.
Hi there, I have talked abt some of these in other review videos. I think you will like the INstant Vortex Plus. The one I had included the odor filter. The only downside to it is the "forced preheat" (exact same issue that I had with Instant air fryer I showed in this video). Otherwise, performance is just good! I reviewed a few of the Ninja air fryers last month and didn't recommend any of them. I'm not a fan!
Glad you're enjoying that one! I liked a lot about it, except the interface was a bit small/dim if I recall. I gave that one to my newly married nephew and his bride. :)
Hi Cathy , thanks for your update of new and not so new air fryers . I’d like to wish you and all of your family a Happy And Healthy Thanksgiving . Enjoy your Turkey Day
Please make a vid about air-fryers without the non - stick coat. I really hate Teflon and I am searching for another option. Thank you for all these infos!
We’re only 2 people, I was thinking of a 4qt but your video has me reconsidering. I want one with a viewing window. Was looking at Beelicous 4qt but it’s only 1550 waats. Please advise.
Have you reviewed the COSORI Clear Window Air Fryer, 6.5 Quart? If so, how does it compare to the Cosori featured in this video? I'm trying to decide between the two.
Hey! I reviewed it last year. It functions almost identical to the Cosori Pro II. It is 6.5 qt but only because the basket is a little deeper. The machine itself is loud (fan and beeps) just like the Pro II as well. I gave that one to my daughter and she likes it fine! But I prefer the TurboBlaze instead.
Good morning. Thanks for the Air Fryer 411. By the way, I placed a large order for pine and pepper. They shipped two items, and Olga emailed me to order on Amazon because they had been moved there. The mister I ordered was not on Amazon, and I was refunded for it and the other items. Where can I get the mister you recommend?
I know I could do a search for it, but I don't see your link for the ✅ Typhur Dome Self Cleaning Air Fryer in the description. Good info all around. Thank you.
I was on the Pampered chef site and noticed that they too have an airfryer. It’s more like a rack system, so I don’t think you’ll like it, but I thought it was interesting that they got on this bandwagon too. 😂
Hi I am watching your video on my firstick and the sound is terrible. It's the same on all your videos but it's totally fine with all other videos I watch. Such a shame as I love your channel and your videos but sadly I can't watch them unless the sound is good. For some reason it seems ok on the phone so I am limited to a small screen 😞

The cosori turbo is the best one and the best value, best investment that can pay for its self real quick and certain food is better and it’s quick.
Ditto
Love the video, have you done a review video of the Typhur Dome yet? I don't remember seeing one and it looks really interesting.
I actually talked about it in a livestream! But have not done a dedicated video on it yet! ruclips.net/user/live81eEjiIQGuQ

Is your trick the Spatchcocking process?

Stellar reviews as always!
Happy Holidays and God Bless🤗❤️
Thanks Ellen! Good to see you!
I have a Netta airfryer it's cheap at just £39 a game changer power just 1300 and it's not slow it Cooke fast over 2 000 people have bought it 4.2L

What is the average life of an air fryer and does the cosori duelblaze have a replacement basket?

She has a video on the Instant Vortex Plus from 2 years ago. She gave it a thumbs up or 4 out of 5.

Great video sweetie as usual. I love all of my air fryers for different reasons. The Tastee air fryer is another great on as well. Thank you
Glad you're enjoying that one! I liked a lot about it, except the interface was a bit small/dim if I recall. I gave that one to my newly married nephew and his bride. :)
I was gifted a 5 quart. So far so good. Atleast I can see if a better one would be worth it.
Hi Cathy , thanks for your update of new and not so new air fryers . I’d like to wish you and all of your family a Happy And Healthy Thanksgiving . Enjoy your Turkey Day
Thanks Jacqueline! Wishing you the same! xoxo

I love ❤️ my Cosori Dual Blaze. I almost never use my oven any more.
We’re only 2 people, I was thinking of a 4qt but your video has me reconsidering. I want one with a viewing window. Was looking at Beelicous 4qt but it’s only 1550 waats. Please advise.
I'd for sure go with a 6 qt so you have more room for more options when cooking for two! ❤️
Thank you, your information was awesome. Happy Thanksgiving 🦃
Thanks for watching Carolyn! Happy Thanksgiving to you too!
Have you reviewed the

The oven style Cosori ceramic one looks nice, "Flat-Sealed Heating Elements for Easy Cleanup"
I actually tested that one and was not a fan. It never made it to the channel.
Do you sell inserts for the 12” basket? Idk if i could get an air fryer without the parchment inserts
Hey there! I don't, but I have used the 9x9 ones in that Dreo air fryer at times. They work fine!
Good morning. Thanks for the Air Fryer 411. By the way, I placed a large order for pine and pepper. They shipped two items, and Olga emailed me to order on Amazon because they had been moved there. The mister I ordered was not on Amazon, and I was refunded for it and the other items. Where can I get the mister you recommend?
Hi Banagal - sorry abt the tech issues we had! Glad you got the other two products from us.
The oil sprayer is here! amzn.to/4eLq3Eo
I know I could do a search for it, but I don't see your link for the ✅ Typhur Dome Self Cleaning Air Fryer in the description.
Good info all around. Thank you.
Ah! Thanks for reminding me! ha ha :) Here is the link! amzn.to/3OnZgDn
How well does the Dreo Chefmaker cook foods that are not cuts of meat?
Great question! It cooks just fine! Since it's slightly smaller, I use my Cosori or Typhur for that though.
Review the Fritaire
Have you checked out the Emeril Lagasse biggest latest and greatest?
I am looking for one without plastics. I think it was the ninja or cuisinart that smelled like burning plastic.
I actually have that one in my house still in a box. Will be reviewing it soon!
Have u tested xiaomi ? Does any of them have a app for the phone ? Xiaomi have it :)
Never heard of it! And yes, Dreo and Typhur have an app with the phone, as well as the Dual Blaze.
I was on the Pampered chef site and noticed that they too have an airfryer. It’s more like a rack system, so I don’t think you’ll like it, but I thought it was interesting that they got on this bandwagon too. 😂
Ha ha - YES I've had viewers mention this to me for a few years now!
I don't need to buy one. Have a Nija Foodie 11-1 it already has one.
I'm so confused , where's Philips and what was best ?
I didn't include Philips. ruclips.net/video/1f0DliR5kyg/видео.html&si=LDH5HlqW0CyyBN3y

So interesting that it's worse on the TV!
Ninja dual drawer cannot be beaten, its the best ever
I agree 💯 I love my 🆕 ninja dual drawer. I love how you can come more than one dish at a time a have it done at the same time 😊😁
Hmmm... Your audio is only coming out of my left speaker.
Sorry, we had a tech issue. :(
I want a non-toxic air fryer, made without toxic materials. No? bye!
See ya
You talk too fast to hear everything you say!also you sound like in a tile room with echo!
If you're watching on your phone, tap on the screen. Tap on the sprocket and then change the playback speed. EZ peasy..
