Ah briliant, Clara. I've been looking at some of these flexi air fryers and your videos are always so informative and you sure give these machines a decent workout.
I prefer the Dual Blaze system for me, I consider the TwinFry to be just a larger size of the previous model, the Dual Blaze single I don't expect the Twin system to be successful
Another video that I could learn something! Theese appliances getting BIG! I really interested in the next video!!! Can't wait! Let me tell you a quirky though! There are a lot of (generally young, so my generation) people who are Childless, work sedentary, maybe at home so they doesn't eat that much (well I do eat much 😂) and the oven is practically unused. As well as the hob. And we tend to have more gadgets, feel comfortable using them. So I can see that newly renovated kitchens gonna have a lot of high voltage plugs and no oven or hob. People have rice cookers/electric pressure cookers and airfryers, cooking blenders, etc. So we don't really need an oven, and a hob to cook. We do a lot of thinks differently nowaday, and I think this airfryer can be great for young couples or roommates. So, even if the kitchen is rather small, you can switch the counterspace from the hob to an airfryer and the oven space for the rest of the gadgets. And you can buy reliable induction hobs for crazy cheap nowadays, too! I think we hit a milestone, like the days when we switched from wood stoves to gas hobs and separate space heaters. Another weird thought, as much as I hate buying more and more gadgets because they mean more and more trash one day, but we learned that we are, - for the lack of a better word - "civilised" because homo sapiens started to use Tools, and that's a fact we can't deny. And an airfryer is just an other tool that's gonna be natural to the next generation, like the other inventions to us today.
I agree, I think the way we cook and eat is going through big changes. I wrestle with the electrical waste aspect, it's why I try and steer clear of cheaper kitchen gadgets on this channel. Ultimately I would like to be in a place with this channel where I might be able to hold brands accountable if appliances aren't made to last long or be serviceable.
Hi Clara, all these new Wider/Deeper cooking machines seem to be getting away from what they should be. Next they will be nearly as big as having a traditional oven (without pan cooking rings of course) stuck on a worktop. Not everyone has a 'farm house kitchen' with acres of worktops. I'm starting to get to grips with my Tefal dual basket and mostly use it on Manual settings rather than the built in programme's Cheers DougT
@@CandidClara thanks Clara, now if I had plenty of countertop spare then the wide drawer variety would be a choice for me, what brand....now that's the question Cheers DougT
I chose the Ideal Vortex twin drawer ( and I do have a 5L Cosori) and the Vortex is a superb air fryer. I've had it close on 3 years and use it daily. When bought it was half the price of the comparable Ninja and had windows and lights Ninja hadn't thought of at that time. For me all air fryers should have an illuminated viewing window and certainly not be as bulky and clumsy as Cosori's new effort. Great review, I subscribed as theDuronic you are to feature looks interesting.
Always interesting to hear what people like about their air fryer, thanks for the comment. The Duronic video will be published on Wednesday 16th October
Great presentation, I know it's early days but what do you think about the build quality of this unit in comparison with the Ninja version? Also, can you confirm what is the highest temperature for all the settings please. Thank you for posting, it is very much appreciated 👏 👍
I have a dual drawer Cosori which is my my "normal" air fryer which I actually use in preference to the Ninja AF400 I bought (you might spot that on the shelves behind me!) It's very similar to this TwinFry and I think it's great build quality. The only complaint about the dual drawer, which I think will be the same with the TwinFry, is some people complain about scratches on the high gloss touchscreen, I can't say it has bothered me and of course the TwinFry has an app, so you could do everything on the phone if you want!
It looks good. I will stick to having two airfryers. (Oh look at me) my duel blaze is good and my older one you shake is fine as you can take out the basket to pour chips onto the plate.
A great review Clara. I do have a question that I've not seen you cover on this or the dual draw review. I like to use the paper liners (the ones that come up the sides and don't have holes) under the crisper rack in my current air fryer, it reduces the need to clean the pan after every cook. Are you able to use them in the Cosori? I noticed you mentioned the crispers are a tight fit so I suspect it could be an issue. Also would it affect the operation of the lower heating element?
This is a really good question, if I have time later this week I might do some experimenting for you. I wish there was a way to attach photos to replies!
@@CandidClara we have a instant pot duo + crisp that we've used for years. do you think we'd notice better air frying outcomes with the Cosori air fryers?
I can’t answer that I’m afraid as I haven’t been hands on with an Instant air fryer yet… although they are on my list and I may buy one before the week is out (doing a little poll on my community tab!)
@@CandidClara always informative , and have helped me no end in using an air fryer !, i can't cook ! but i am getting better , you should go into classes or something Clara !
I have the dual drawer and like it a lot! This one looks great too, however the big drawer for me would be too large to fit in my sink for cleaning and too bulky for my old hands to handle. My sister has the Ninja version and that was the first thing she griped about was the drawer was too big. Great video thank you for your review.
@skykitchen867 what's the problem? Just dip one side of drawer in hot water clean it, then turn it around to do other side! Even with my arthritis I can do it!
@@juliawigger9796 I said what the problem was. I'm glad that you can handle it with your arthritic hands but my frail hands can't, consider yourself lucky. thank you for your reply and have a great day!
Another bunch of thoughs. Drying: does this has different fan speeds for drying? Mine does. It's a xiaomi smart airfryer. 80°C or bellow it has a slower fanspeed. It currently dries vegetables that are chopped in an electric chopper. They start to dry, and it's still the wind catch some of them. It's not a problem, it has a mesh that can help keep the pieces away from the heating element. Philips has practically a lid with 3 legs to Dehydrate food in it that don't let the pieces fly to the top. Smartness: mine is not smart it's stupid. 😂 You can't really make programs, just presets. Only set time and temp. You can't specify preheat. [I like preheat and I think it has a benefit! But not always use it. The last time I pre-made pizza crust for freezing, I baked the first for 20 mins and the rest for 18. (I can lend a recipe if you want!)] Preheat is only so called "cloud recipes". You can enable it or disable. You don't have access to the temperature sensor! It has one! It's only used at preheating! How do I know? In winter our kitchen is ice cold and boiling in summer. During winter it takes more time to preheat. But you can turn it on or off from anywhere as long as it turned on! Can be useful, but I never used it. And used the delay start, hmm, once? So on mine it's a gimmick. On my coffee maker it's not. It's actually helpful. So I'm not saying smart functions are inherently bad.
Cosori TwinFry on Amazon > amzn.to/4gFz9oi
I bought this Cosori 3 weeks ago, thanks to you. Was my best purchase in 2024, thank you very much for your work!
So pleased to hear that!
I'm waiting for it now and I'm so excited. Thank you for the work you do. Greetings from Norway
Fantastic! Hope you enjoy it. 😁

Just what I was asking myself. Thank you so much Clara!!!
Thank you! So glad I could be of help.
It would be awesome if Cosori, would make 2 draws extra like the Duronic. If you tried to say that to Cosori and they made a larger devider. 😘

I’m inclined to agree Doug, but would fiercely defend people’s right to choose. A dual basket is still my favourite option😁

I think if you use high heat baking paper it would be fine! Check the label. I bet they make some that are safe up to 220 °C!
This is a really good question, if I have time later this week I might do some experimenting for you. I wish there was a way to attach photos to replies!
@@CandidClara right? Much needed function! As well as direct messages. Literally every other platform has dm-s!
@@CandidClara You could always add a picture or two on the community "post" tab
You are right, although now I’m thinking maybe I should just do a video of FAQs! So many ideas, so little time! 😆
hi Clara, of all the air fryers youve tried, which one do you use most?
That prize goes to the Cosori Dual Basket! Which still hasn’t lost its crown as my favourite x
@@CandidClara we have a instant pot duo + crisp that we've used for years. do you think we'd notice better air frying outcomes with the Cosori air fryers?

DO NOT use metal cutlery in a teflon container !
Nope, do not let metal cutlery come into contact with a non-stick surface! 😉 Same but different.
Yeah wouldn’t fit in my sink either … Way too bulky
The struggle is real
Wouldn't give up my 10ltr ninja for anything!😂
Don’t worry, no one is coming round to get it! 😆😆
Me too lol!

I hate you. I’ve just bought the ninja flexi
