    I got my Cosori Air Fryer for my birthday 3 weeks ago. I had spent about 6 monthes researching all about them, how they work, what to cook, how to clean them. ( Your videos have been the most help) And now all I can say is "I blame you for my oven becoming a place to store pots and pans" Over the last 3 weeks I have not used it for only 4 dinners. I love it. I would love to see you try it for perogies. Thanks you so much for making fun and informative videos.

    We bought an air fryer when the first one hit the market via infomercials, the kind with the little shelves inside. Well could not keep it clean, threw it out. Used my Convection Wall Oven instead. Went to a friend's house and she made bacon in the Cosori Air Fryer. It was amazing! Then after watching several of your videos, I am sold. It's time to give air frying another chance. thank you!

    Hey! I just wanted to say "Thank you" for your videos on air frying. We got one and had no clue how to use it. I watched a couple of your videos and it gave me the confidence to try it. It's been a month now and we use it every single day and love it. It's fast, clean and because of your videos I don't approach the thing like it's a calculus exam. It's our first choice now when we're hungry and we're not sustaining ourselves on drive-thru anymore. Cheers.

This is amazing, I do not own an air fryer and always wanted one; you've now convinced me to purchase one thank you.....I'm a great cook, not to toot my own horn but I am...I come from a family of caterers and chefs etc....and no one cooked like my Mom may she rest in peace.....I have never owned a crock pot either; call me an old fashioned type of cook....I just never trusted them and I do not ever leave my kitchen when using any heat source what so ever. The fact that it's not a pot of oil or any extreme oil used...such as when frying anything is what intrigues me and when they came out for sale I believe they were a lot more expensive right? Thanks again, just subscribed to your channel 'all' because your personality is amazing and you're honest I respect that. You're a great Mom, sign me a Mom too.

    The best thing about it is when you're cooking chicken thighs, you don't get the fatty ends on the skin, everything is browned and crispy... and the grease at the bottom is SO clean; I make gravy with it. I also don't use as much seasoning as I used to, either... I don't know how the heck blowing air makes that much of a difference.

    Hi, just wanted to let you know that it's not a good idea to use alfoil directly in contact with food at any extreme temperature. At extreme high or low temperatures alfoil starts to exude some chemicals that are considered poison.
    I know it's inconvenient but it only happens if the food is touching the alfoil.
