@Tony.. my thoughts exactly. This was NOT a good review, imo, and very biased. She started out talking against it right from the start. Also, WHO turns on an air fryer and ''tests'' it without food in it? Who would just start pushing buttons without looking at the paperwork?
Speaking of fire hazards...does anyone remember a Cosori recall? I usually enjoy these videos and reviews, but this one not so much. Even a "cheap" machine deserves the respect of an unbiased review. Maybe she was just trying for comedy more than anything?
I bought a used farberware at the good will 5 years ago ended up giving it to a friend an bought a bigger one hated it so I just bought another exact farberware and am glad to have it back. The original is still working great for my friend
You can't even call this a review?! your just making fun of the fryer and you didn't even bother testing it, you kept whining about the smell and not even trying to figure your way through it, the whole video is just a waste of time, and polishing the Paula Deen without even testing it just because it is a known brand on the expensive high end side
I appreciate what you were trying to do, but I think it might be better to review the cheapest and most expensive air fryers with the highest ratings. I agree that sometimes you get what you pay for, but not everyone has a budget that will allow them to spend $200 on an air fryer. Just because an air fryers is expensive or has the name of a famous chef on it doesn't mean it will be a good value. And just because an air fryer is not expensive doesn't mean it will be garbage. The one in this video definitely is, but I don't think all cheap ones are. Just my opinion of course. Love watching your videos and I'm looking forward to seeing the showdown between the Cosori and the Paula Deen.
Always comparing with her sponsored cosori air fryer. Well should we guess who will always win in Her reviews??? Consori sponsored ever time!!! Bought. 2 cosori after her reviews and both died out within a year. Yes even the dual blaze. Nope more. Best reviews from several sources is the Insta air fryer. I'm going to check several reviews first instead of 1 sided review.
Yeah, totally dramatic. She's getting paid by Paula 😂 I guess. Although, regarding reading the instructions, I just bought an air fryer and there's not a word about what to do with the plastic gumbs in the tray!?!? My common sense tells me to take it away but I'm still searching online ...
Suggestion on your fire extinguisher for the kitchen. Home Depot, there is a fire extinguisher that is a nozzle like you’re pushing for Raid, winder, etc. , and you know all the normal cans. Not a big thing. It’s about probably $15 now it’s good for five years. And it is just handheld like a can of anything or and it is fantastic. Just a suggestion.
I would be interested in the Paula Deen. I'll bet the difference in price is for her name only. By the way, I finally got my Cosori last week after waiting since 2/25/23. I had to send an email to them asking for a refund and the sent me a voucher for the Cosori store. I hated waiting so long, but was finally satisfied with their response.
My recalled Cosori took months for a replacement, and because I wanted white like the one I had, it took even longer. What kind of quality control departments do these frigin companies have, anyway!
Im a 75 year old lady living on social security. I've been putting off buying an air fryer because i couldnt afford the extra expense. Finally bit the bullet and bought a Chefman 3.6 qt... $40.00 (original price $59.99). Im looking for ways to cook with less mess/clean up. (Arthritis). Hoping this will work. Tired of sandwiches and want some good meals. !! Wish me luck with this cheapo. If this doesnt work, im back to sandwiches..😊
@@patcummings6950 - I've had good luck with chefman. Another brand has been recalled For fire hazard. Best Buy was great about the return. Except this time you had to cut off the cord and text a photo of it and dispose of it. What failed on this Bella brand was the digital pad controls. I'd rather the non digital knob because they are more reliable and sturdy. I wish chefman made larger sizes. But after 4 years it is still going strong. Good luck with yours!
I had two cosori machines from amazon. Both started peeling non stick coating after few months. Got rid of them and got Ninja instead - their non stick coating even visually look stronger.
To get a box out of a box - which you had trouble with - you, don't need a second person, you simply: 1. Turn the box upside down. 2. Cut open the BOTTOM. 3. Fold the flaps out. 4. Flip the whole thing over and place it on the floor, with the flaps out. 5. Grab two of the flaps - on opposite sides - and lift. 6. The outside box slides off the inside box, which is left sitting upright on the floor.
This just proves that the saying of "Buy Cheap, Buy Twice" also applies to airfryers. I often see these unknown brand names on offer and think chances are they are junk I certainly wouldn't like to risk eating any food cooked in one that is if it worked! At least you have warned us about this one, i guess they will be in the Black Friday sales to clear the unsold stock.
I'm a Ninja foodi gal, I have the 9 in 1 and the AF400. I love them both. I just wouldn't consider using another brand. My daughter bought a basic airfryer Tower here in the UK for US $50 and it works well. In the UK Tower is a good make. Thank you for sharing this video Cathy, people need to know that not every air fryer is a good one. xx
My son gave us his Ninja because his flat is tiny and the Ninja took up too much room. It's wonderful! I make the Ritz chicken stock, which is fabulous. After roasting chicken wings and various veg for 1 hour in roasting pans in the oven then, putting everything in a large saucepan, it will then take 3 hours to simmer. It takes 45 minutes in the Ninha pressure cooker attachment! It grills and roasts like a dream. Our son missed it so much that he got himself a smaller Ninja, which has a rotisserie in it. The chicken is amazing. Ninja every time for me!
please i am so dyslexic and to top it off 81 and a diabetic one was told i need this. i bought instant vortex plus. got bit today and hope i did good. look to find a friend to read for me. can i keep or should i send back to amazon? please help.
I just bought the ninja Dual air fryer. I used it for the first time last night. Omg! I love it. It has put me in a whole new world of cooking. I live alone and this will help me cooking for myself dramatically. I came upon you videos and I love them. And your children are adorable. Thank you for sharing.
You hit the nail on the head of why I don’t buy the cheapest. I was happy with my Cosori before the recall. I’m still waiting for my replacement, although I’m now receiving emails telling me that they’re hoping to send it out to me soon. It still may be 6-8 weeks! Thank goodness I bought the mini Cosori to tide me over, although I was thinking about buying cheap, like the Gormia at Costco. After watching your video I’m glad I didn’t!
I finally sent them an email asking for a refund and they sent me a voucher for the full amount. I had my new one in 5 days!! It wouldn't hurt to ask. I had waited since February.
@@susanrobinson408 Yes. I just saw that today. I opted to get a new white one, so I guess I’ll hold out for that. Now, if it’s August, and I still don’t have it, that will be another story!
but that's also overly generalized. Cheap doesn'T equal bad. 2 of my family members have also cheap air fryers , here the are also around 40-60 euros and theirs work fine, not well known brand, super cheap , not much rating and still doing the job for years.But I'm more sceptical . I want my first airfryer to christmas this year to be a cosori, becasue I'm pyrophobic and it seems to be the best choice since many on other ones wrote that they getting too hot outside and such things.
I paid $20 for mine at Target recently and have used it about three times with great success. It's about as simple as you can get. It's only a 2 qt which is perfect for one to two people. If I decided isn't big enough I can always upgrade.
My first air fryer was a Phillips and I loved it. But it has that old wire basket, so hard to clean. How about testing Philips Premium Airfryer XXL with Fat Removal Technology, 3lb/7qt, Black, HD9650/96 ? I'm waiting for Prime Days to see if the price goes down.
That was actually the first air fryer I owned! It's now at my dad's house. It was a beast to clean! I compared it to the cosori 5.8 quart almost 3 years ago and the results were similar! Cosori is just easier to clean!
Being a first time user I bought a Gormia air fryer for $38.00 at Walmart during their daily Christmas specials last year. I wanted to see if I liked air frying. It also has a mind of it's own. Sometimes it behaves and sometimes not. I ordered a Cosori. It should be here next week.
i have a Gourmia. It's cheap, made in china CRAP, but it is decent. The basket sometimes doesn't go in the fryer, like the unit in this video. I have to push it in and pull it back out a few times to find the grooves so it will slide in right.Thing i really don't like about it is the fact that the crisper tray thing's losing it's paint. Maybe it is teflon? It comes off every time i wash it after use.
I bought a Cosori based on the review on this channel. Loved it, but it was too small. Bought a bigger Cosori. I’m moving into a new home that has a convection oven (air fryer), but I will still use my countertop Cosori so I don’t have to turn the whole oven on!
I've been doing fine with my Gourmia, although when the time comes to buy another air fryer, I'll buy one of Cathy's recommended models. The Cosori Dual Blaze is a bit pricey, but the convenience looks like it's worth the extra $$.
I’m looking for a good air fryer. I’ve had two and they were the worst. I paid $100 and had problems contacting the company. I want another air fryer but want one that will last longer than a few months. So glad I seen your video. Thank you
I have had the original ninja air fryer/pressure cooker since the first Christmas season it was available. I haven't used my oven since I got it. And only used the stove top a couple of times. And it is still running like a champ
@Nan215 I have one Gourmia French Door air fryer that I use in the house and another one we use in our RV. It has about 17 preset functions (I have used many of them). I love it! It was $99.00 at Walmart and hasn't let me down. My son in law and one just like it that he took with him to various jobs (he works on the road in construction). He's used it for about 2 1/2 years and never had a problem, that's why I got mine. It's so nice to be able to use the 400 temp when it's called for and my kitchen doesn't heat up. I had a Power XL that I loved and wore it out, lol, after about 5 years, but I didn't like the way it heated up the area of my counter that I sat it on to use (had plenty of room around it too).
Thanks for the review! I googled Fryernetic and nothing came up. Usually I can get a home page for the company. It really pays to do research on what we buy!
I have the 10 quart Paula Deen air fryer in red that I bought off of Amazon and I absolutely love it… So I would really like to see how well you liked it so if you can do a review on Paula deans air fryer I would appreciate it thank you
It's still on Amazon, but now with your 1 star review. I love the "Run away, run away now" part of your review. It's a shame that you weren't able to direct potential buyers to this video so they know the reviewer is creditable. Great video.
I would not be so willing to test the cheapest air fryer in your new kitchen . Deathly afraid of fire . Don’t even bother trying to test !! I repeat not worth the risk of fire 🔥🔥🔥🔥
@@mar4kl That's weird. I did searches by the brand name, "air fryer 6L", and simply "air fryer". I filtered price lowest to highest, and it never showed up in any way. The cheapest air fryer was a DEIME brand one for 59.99. There are quite a few brands at that price, none of them being this one. I just did another search for simply "air fryer", and I got the exact same result. This air fryer is nowhere to be seen in my results. I will try again. Nope, still no sign of it. This time I searched through every single air fryer on the site. It took quite awhile. BTW, I am in the US(Texas). Maybe that is having an effect different than yours?
What is the safest air fryer I have heard to only buy the stainless steel models because of the same issue with nonstick pans toxic so what is your opinion on this
Just a question - Have you, in all your multitude of ordering air fryers from Amazon, ever received one that was used and dirty? I watch your videos and carefully chose a model you tested. When it arrived, it was grossly dirty and apparently used before - and never cleaned. Needless to say it went right back. So … have you ever received a dirty product? Many thanks!
This is the fault of Amazon, most likely. Someone probably bought the air fryer and used it and then decided to return it, and somehow it got put back on Amazon's warehouse shelves as new inventory instead of a return.
I received a pressure cooker dirty and obviously used, I put in a review of one and the retailer asked me to remove my review because they reimbursed me my cost of the cooker. I never did get my money reimbursed and I never adjusted my review, we are at a stand off.
My son bought me the Paula Deene one in red for Mother's Day.... love it! There was no weird smell or taste in my food...nice size basket...easy to use..and visually pleasing 🙂. I had the Cosori before that and was not impressed 🙂
@barbaracarlson1331 it's been a while since I've returned it, but if I remember correctly...it was big, bulky, awkward looking to me, and I still found myself flipping my food, and it didn't cook fast ...in my opinion. Oh also, although the outside was big...the basket wasn't big enough for me. I'm still loving Paula Dean's af though. It cooks fast, doesn't take up a lot of room, huge basket, and looks good on the counter space. There were only minor findings with that one.
Wow, I am stunned Amazon still has the listing up. I just contacted them to report it. CS agent said he would "escalate the issue." Will be interesting to see how long it takes them to take down the listing or if they ever do!
cathy when is corsori going to produce a heavy duty handle for my corsori af168 same happen to my 158 the handle just came right off and i dont shake basket for that reason please help me get replacement basket with handle
Sometimes the sellers write there own reviews, say product is great. Then you buy it and it is junk, like that air Fryer. Has happened to my daughter, so the tip on checking reviews and sticking to the ones with thousand or more review is the best way to get a good product. Unrelated but my sister thought she found a deal on a switch game, she ordered it and received a pair of ugly sock 6 months later. So if it's to good to believe, don't believe. Thank you!
I have an Instant Pot brand 6 quart Air Fryer I bought from Target and it’s perfect. I actually got it refurbished by Target because I’d much rather pay $50 than $120 and I’ve gotta say they did a really good job at refurbishing it. So I would highly recommend, but if they don’t have the refurbished ones definitely wait for a sale. Like I just looked and a new one is on sale for $80
I bought an air fryer from Asda about a year ago for £34 (about $44) and it's been great. It's just got a simple dial for switching on/timer and another dial for temperature control and no LED display. Very easy to operate and so far I don't really have any complaints (though I don't use it every day) when buying a cheap one its probably better to buy something like that than getting something with all the fancy buttons/lights.
Of course very cheap products need even more vigilant attention before buying, but like you, I bought an own-brand for €50 ($53) from a real store : Carrefour, a French Hypermarket. Their own brand is called MANDINE and the model I bought has 5L (5.3Qts) capacity and 1900W. In France, own brands tend to be good-value for money and the distributor often imposes above average specifications. I take Cathy's point that cheaper Air Fryers ON THE INTERNET will have lower quality teflon coating etc and are mostly a waste of money, but I wouldn't have bought a more expensive one, because at that point, I felt I had everything I needed in my kitchen. Nor apparently would the elderly lady above who's on social security. It's early days to rate my recent purchase but I would say "so far, so good". Cathy, a more interesting comparison for me would have been to test a "classic" upmarket airfryer like a Philips with a very cheap one, but chosen with discernment; maybe an own-brand like mine or guywakeford's (although I'm not sure that Asda or Carrefour would let you have one to test) Incidentally, I'm new to your channel and I find your videos great !
Definitely a case of you get what you pay for. Since it didn’t even have a UL tag, I wouldn’t have plugged it in for fear of sparks and fire. Guess that’s just default reaction since my dad was an electrician.
"UL Listed" is not even a guarantee that it is in compliance with their guidelines...it would have to be "UL Certified" to mean that UL has actually tested the product for themselves. It is really just a promise that they are following the rules, and have paid the licensing fee to be able to stamp it on their product...what could possibly go wrong with that? Of course there is no corruption and bribery in China, right?
I got my replacement cosori - it is the best, BUT does anyone know how do I register it. Wants an order number and if it is from cosori it should be SHxxx ?? no where on the outer box or inside. help!
My first AF was a Dash and the coating started flaking off the basket pretty quick so I trashed it. I bought a Ninja basket type 2 or 3 years ago and love it. I use it at least once a day.
I did a lot of reasearch and in my budget range, got the one reccommende by 15+ test sites and I love it. Not the cheapest and closer to being expensive, but I intend to have and use it for the rest of my life. Also a well known brand
I have found that Amazon and other stores like Walmart will send you returned items that prior buyer said wasn’t used, but was. I have found missing directions and missing hardware etc. sometimes if you explain situation, they will refund your money and you do not even have to return the item.
I agree with you about that air fryer. I wouldn't want to have something like that in my house that kept on running when you pulled the basket out. Good thinking for having a fire extinguisher in your house. As for your fire extinguisher, they last 10-12 years.
Write the expiration date ON THE BOTTLE so it stands out. Also, buy one with a gauge. The bottle may say 10-12 years. Not much good if you find out that you had a tiny pressure leak at year 5 and needed it at year 6. I tossed one this year about 4 years after it's shelf life. You yucks, I tried it out. It worked fine. It didn't have a gauge. Still would have bought a replacement. But I probably would have kept the expired one as long as the gauge was in the green zone.
LOL, You are quite funny ! A "fryernetic air fryer appointment button" refers to a function on an air fryer that allows you to set a specific time in the future for your food to start cooking, essentially "scheduling" your meal to be ready when you want it, even if you're not currently at home; it's essentially a delayed start feature.
P.S. I loved my Cosori and was disappointed it was recalled. Mine was the 5.8 quart with the stainless steel front on the basket. Not really happy with the replacement they sent me. It's a plain, black one and it doesn't have a shake reminder and the basket is a different size/shape than the one from my first one so I can't even use the old one as a spare. I'll keep using this one...but I have a feeling I may want to replace it in a year or two.
I use a Gourmia from Costco 3 1/2 years ago and still using. Not a little more expensive one from QVC which is still in the garage for when this one dies. But got my Gourmia at Costco was $59. And then they had them on sale for $49. So yikes this looks really horrible.
Have you checked behind the burner on top it's probably really greasy dirty by now, I buy a new one every one and a half to two years , but I do use mine everyday, just saying.
Please tell me again…which Cosori do you recommend? I have a small (2.6 qt) DASH which works great but it’s not big enough. Too small for corn tortillas or mini pizza. Your videos are very helpful👍
Haven't tried it! But I know that the two baskets can be a bit small and inhibiting. I have this Instant VersaZone where you can cook in two zones OR remove the divider and have one nice large basket, and it works good! It's the first one on this list: amzn.to/45Abcsh
I bought a Cosori Dual Blaze after watching your reviews. ❤️ It was quite expensive (here in Sweden) but I am so happy with it and I use it at least two times a day for all kinds of food. Do you have any tips for making popcorn 🍿 in it? My little popcorn maker is on its last breath. 😇💖🙏🙌
I think that you are thinking of the oven style air fryers. I do believe that Cathy reviewed those and didn't care for them. I have the oven style and love it. I think it's just a matter of preference. 🙂
Amazingly, this product is still on Amazon. Except now it has 4 ratings and all of them are 1 star. Judging by those reviews, this video is pretty accurate. I'm a little surprised that there aren't any fake 5 star reviews yet. The only thing I would question is why someone would put plastic clips inside an air fryer and not expect something to smell.
I bought an almost similar looking one from Just Vegan for 129 Euros, without toxic stuff, I was sure it would be great but as I unpacked it looked very cheap inside with a similar looking thing inside. I found it odd because it looks cheap and not like something that worth 129! Creepy is: it looks 99% similar to this cheap one
i bought a similar air fryer on tiktok shop cost £8.37 or $10.59 had no problem with it does the job its supposed to , just found ur channel and like it
Harry here: I agree with you on watching what you buy online.... We've gone through sooooo muccccch stuff that is sent to us to try out that I wind up tossing the majority of it out... Then try to warn people about it... I'm SO WITH YOU ON THIS...GREAT VIDEO
I noticed a few other strange things with the "Fryernetic" air fryer. For example, the pictures on Amazon show a somewhat different control panel than your unit had. The "Appointment" button on yours is a "Preset" button in the pictures, but neither makes much sense, since the unit also has a "Function" button. Maybe it's supposed to be a Turn Reminder button. I also have no idea why an air fryer needs a "Nut" or "Nuts" preset. I suppose I could toast nuts in my air fryer, but that's not something I would do very often. And, as a few others have pointed out, this unit probably doesn't have a UL listing because of its 2400W power usage claim. If that claim is accurate, it most likely means that the air fryer was intended for countries with 220-240V household electrical systems, and the very least that should have been changed for US-bound models would have been to change the plug so it would only fit in 20-amp sockets. All in all, this was a very entertaining review, although it would have been even more so if you could have worked your kids into it somehow. 😄
I agree! I had a large one like this a Presto AirDaddy and it cooked great but the sliding door would hang up constantly and I tried to fix it but it persisted and so I thru the thing on the ground outside and bought one with conventional doors like an oven!
Check the CE mark on it.. C E = all good, CE = China Export.. Basically if the CE symbol line up the C with the E you get 0 information regarding testing and standards, if there is a spacing you have an authentic CE certified product which has been through rigorous testing. They most likely measured the volume without the racket, they (the chinese manufacturers) rarely stick to standard measurements.. Yeah, keep a fire extinguisher pointed at it at all times while it's plugged in.. I'd say that "appointment" is equal to "timer or timed setting"
Ninja also have this "never-stop-unless-you-beg-for-it" function. It always keeps running when you pull the basket off. To change temperature format, usually you press and keep press the T button for 2-5 seconds.
"Pluggin in, Fryernetic, I have an appointment..."girl, i couldnt help myself, I wasn't expecting you to say that and it took me out...I spit out my tea!!! Biggest laugh I've had in weeks!!! Happy holiday season family - Be safe and take care😎
Haha! I'm sorry about your tea, but I'm glad I could give you a good laugh! Laughter is the best medicine, right? Wishing you a fantastic holiday season and lots more laughs!
I was looking for this unit on Amazon Canada and, to my surprise, I found a Frigidaire Air Fryer for $38 CDN!!! And, hold on to your hat, it has a 4.4 rating! It has a 1.8 L capacity. I plain can’t believe this! But I still love my Cosori.
found this by accident, ok first thing, Celsius, like the full metric system makes sense, 1Ltr water is 1000 grams, 1 cubic meter of water is 1000 Kg or 1 ton, all divisible by 10, Celsius 0 degC freezing point of water, 100, boiling point of water, answering someone's comment about plastic bits on basket, these will be silicone, melting point extremely high, when you removed the basket was it just the fan kept running, (this is normal) to disperse the heat from the unit with the basket removed, or did the element stay on? no certification mark, especially in the UK is not allowed, Amazon would not be allowed to sell such an item here, however ive not checked as i live in Thailand. I also noted only a 2 pin plug, there was no double insulation sign on the appliance meaning high risk of electric shock, and the unit must be earthed, especially with this power rating.
I LOVE my Instant Vortex 4-quart! Had it a couple months now. Stupid easy to cook with and clean. Got a fantastic review from America’s Test Kitchen. Use it regularly. 👍👍
I've ordered the Dreo. It will give a new definition to the term most expensive. I ordered early for $199. As the program kicks into gear, it will become more expensive. As I have watched the demonstrations, it seems to be much more than just an air fryer, using a probe that samples both the food item temperature and the internal oven temperature. It also has a water source to keep some things moist while others might be crisp. Seems to have a lot of intelligence with a wide choice of selections and internal recipes; a much advanced technology.
I'm still using mr recalled Cosori, yes I know. . . . But I figure if only a few hundred out of two million sold, I'll take my chances and upgrade next year.
Hii my name is George did u get ur refund. I bought a air fryer called pipfco. I’m looking forward to trying that with my friend Eric . Eric loves my chips beans and fish fingers .
I'm glad you stopped when the Fryernetic failed. Getting this bad air fryer info out there is more important than continuing with Paula Deen's air fryer. Holly snotty! Please do another video for Paula Deen's, I doubt it is worth that high price, blinky lights and all! Thanks for sharing!!!
l bought a cheap one from kmart and it is good, not long after nz consumer magazine recommended it as the best buy, after that they were sold out, 3 people i know have one and they are all satisfied. had my one for 2 years now and the only problem is the teflon coating on the basket is coming off, but a cheap silicone mat fixed that, it was a not branded but at nz$69 dollars it cooks just as well as my sisters nz$500 machine, it is small though l can only get 750g of chips in it. ps the fan is really strong, it will flip burger buns and blow the cheese off of the bread
still use the OLD air fryer I got for a present - best use might be reheating fries & other doggie bag things. yeah we have a micro wave too [soggy stuff] also have a gas oven [way better than electric] the air fryer i kinda like a convection oven or a hair dryer lol, but less time in this old air fryer. its the old egg style that works much better than newer models [but it is smaller] can buy them at the 2nd hand shops for cheap. or like $30 at a wally world when they might have them on clearance Ive seen the newer models and I agree those are not as good. not even a gift as I like the old one much better.
I did have a Gormia for my 1st air fryer. But it met an untimely death. It fell off my counter just after I shook it and walked away to turn to see it in mid air falling .It was in pieces. My late husband's first words out of his mouth as he yells from another room, "You are not gluing it back together. I have a thing abut glue thing back if I can.Since I watch you all the time. I had to get the Cosori lll Pro because of you and I love it ! This has been one of the funniest video about an off brand air fryer. My husband's favorite saying and we still comment on it when buying something that my kids and I think we could get a cheaper product. "You get what you pay for". I know it's not an original saying but it keeps us from doing this. Lol on this video !
Your late husband was a wise man. I'm all about fixing things when I can, but the heating elements of an air fryer get hot enough to cause severe burns and start fires. The risk of trying to fix one is just not worth the modest savings, especially if you're talking about Gourmia air fryers, which are usually under $100.

Why don't you read the instructions first!?? It seems like you already made your mind before using it??!
Before you slag it off and ram at the buttons read the instructions. That’s what they are there for. I have this air fryer. 2 years and going strong
@Tony.. my thoughts exactly. This was NOT a good review, imo, and very biased. She started out talking against it right from the start. Also, WHO turns on an air fryer and ''tests'' it without food in it? Who would just start pushing buttons without looking at the paperwork?
Speaking of fire hazards...does anyone remember a Cosori recall? I usually enjoy these videos and reviews, but this one not so much. Even a "cheap" machine deserves the respect of an unbiased review. Maybe she was just trying for comedy more than anything?
She is just overly dramatic and not in the least funny. I wont watch her again. She is terrible.
@@NannaNeelyit's kind of sad , I thought she a nice lady turn out she not really a good person
Why turn it on without anything in it and at a high programme...what a div
This was not a fair review in my opinion.
I was looking for this comment, I totally agree
@@BLDJamaica it was biased from the start. Have a blessed day.
@@marlanscott2508 You are absolutely right! The way she was going on and on, you could tell she was biased in her opinion.
I bought a cheap 1.5 quart Toastmaster air fryer at Dollar General for $30 , I love it. I've had it for 2 yrs now and no problems.
I bought mine at that price. I was skeptical about it because the price was too good to be true since the closest I could find cost $100
Me too 😊
Bish that was from dollar tree 😭
I bought a used farberware at the good will 5 years ago ended up giving it to a friend an bought a bigger one hated it so I just bought another exact farberware and am glad to have it back. The original is still working great for my friend
is that for air frying ONE hot dog
You can't even call this a review?! your just making fun of the fryer and you didn't even bother testing it, you kept whining about the smell and not even trying to figure your way through it, the whole video is just a waste of time, and polishing the Paula Deen without even testing it just because it is a known brand on the expensive high end side
Yup guess who is cynical and maybe a little spoiled.
Remove plastic from tray they were part of packing. You heated them up too much and created stink. Lordy!
Yeah this is what i was thinking, the bits of plastic aren't part of it, agree that's what the stink prob was
It probably would have helped if she read the instructions instead of pushing random buttons and cooking the packing material 😂
Vous avez fait exprès de mal l’utiliser. Beurk. Vos méthodes sont à vomir 🤮
I appreciate what you were trying to do, but I think it might be better to review the cheapest and most expensive air fryers with the highest ratings. I agree that sometimes you get what you pay for, but not everyone has a budget that will allow them to spend $200 on an air fryer. Just because an air fryers is expensive or has the name of a famous chef on it doesn't mean it will be a good value. And just because an air fryer is not expensive doesn't mean it will be garbage. The one in this video definitely is, but I don't think all cheap ones are. Just my opinion of course. Love watching your videos and I'm looking forward to seeing the showdown between the Cosori and the Paula Deen.
That was a bit Dramatic, why did you not read the instructions first before completly dismissing that machine?
Yes that was a piss poor review and the cosori she keeps on about thousands of them got recalled.
I think that was the only instructions that she found.
Always comparing with her sponsored cosori air fryer. Well should we guess who will always win in Her reviews??? Consori sponsored ever time!!! Bought. 2 cosori after her reviews and both died out within a year. Yes even the dual blaze. Nope more. Best reviews from several sources is the Insta air fryer. I'm going to check several reviews first instead of 1 sided review.
Just a bit lol
Yeah, totally dramatic. She's getting paid by Paula 😂 I guess. Although, regarding reading the instructions, I just bought an air fryer and there's not a word about what to do with the plastic gumbs in the tray!?!? My common sense tells me to take it away but I'm still searching online ...
Suggestion on your fire extinguisher for the kitchen. Home Depot, there is a fire extinguisher that is a nozzle like you’re pushing for Raid, winder, etc. , and you know all the normal cans. Not a big thing. It’s about probably $15 now it’s good for five years. And it is just handheld like a can of anything or and it is fantastic. Just a suggestion.
Great tip, thanks Gail!
Thanks! 😊
Great suggestion, thank you
Going to Home Depot! Thanks
Thank you for this suggestion! I need to buy a pair of new fire extinguishers, and will look out for these.
I bought a small one for $19 at Walmart on clearance, works great for about a year now.
Sometimes that's all you need.
I would be interested in the Paula Deen. I'll bet the difference in price is for her name only. By the way, I finally got my Cosori last week after waiting since 2/25/23. I had to send an email to them asking for a refund and the sent me a voucher for the Cosori store. I hated waiting so long, but was finally satisfied with their response.
Glad you got things worked out! ❤️
My recalled Cosori took months for a replacement, and because I wanted white like the one I had, it took even longer. What kind of quality control departments do these frigin companies have, anyway!
Im a 75 year old lady living on social security. I've been putting off buying an air fryer because i couldnt afford the extra expense. Finally bit the bullet and bought a Chefman 3.6 qt... $40.00 (original price $59.99). Im looking for ways to cook with less mess/clean up. (Arthritis). Hoping this will work. Tired of sandwiches and want some good meals. !! Wish me luck with this cheapo. If this doesnt work, im back to sandwiches..😊
So, Pat, are you happy with your choice ?
How is it???
If it doesn't work.......Return it to the store for a refund. Everything does NOT have to be expensive to be good.
I hope it worked well & you are enjoying your meals everyday.
@@patcummings6950 - I've had good luck with chefman. Another brand has been recalled For fire hazard. Best Buy was great about the return. Except this time you had to cut off the cord and text a photo of it and dispose of it. What failed on this Bella brand was the digital pad controls. I'd rather the non digital knob because they are more reliable and sturdy. I wish chefman made larger sizes. But after 4 years it is still going strong. Good luck with yours!
I had two cosori machines from amazon. Both started peeling non stick coating after few months. Got rid of them and got Ninja instead - their non stick coating even visually look stronger.
Did your Ninja Temp jump from 375-390??????
To get a box out of a box - which you had trouble with - you, don't need a second person, you simply:
1. Turn the box upside down.
2. Cut open the BOTTOM.
3. Fold the flaps out.
4. Flip the whole thing over and place it on the floor, with the flaps out.
5. Grab two of the flaps - on opposite sides - and lift.
6. The outside box slides off the inside box, which is left sitting upright on the floor.
Curious to know how well the Paula Dean air fryer stacks up to the Cosori.
This just proves that the saying of "Buy Cheap, Buy Twice" also applies to airfryers.
I often see these unknown brand names on offer and think chances are they are junk
I certainly wouldn't like to risk eating any food cooked in one that is if it worked!
At least you have warned us about this one, i guess they will be in the Black Friday
sales to clear the unsold stock.
Lets see the most expensive Air Fryer Please. Thank you!
Coming soon! ❤️
Please.
Bad workers blame the tools
@@TheNab2323stupid quote
With a celebrity appliance you are paying for the name: not necessarily the quality 😜
I'm a Ninja foodi gal, I have the 9 in 1 and the AF400. I love them both. I just wouldn't consider using another brand. My daughter bought a basic airfryer Tower here in the UK for US $50 and it works well. In the UK Tower is a good make. Thank you for sharing this video Cathy, people need to know that not every air fryer is a good one. xx
Have two Tower fryers both work well, not fancy but easy to use.
My son gave us his Ninja because his flat is tiny and the Ninja took up too much room. It's wonderful! I make the Ritz chicken stock, which is fabulous. After roasting chicken wings and various veg for 1 hour in roasting pans in the oven then, putting everything in a large saucepan, it will then take 3 hours to simmer. It takes 45 minutes in the Ninha pressure cooker attachment! It grills and roasts like a dream. Our son missed it so much that he got himself a smaller Ninja, which has a rotisserie in it. The chicken is amazing. Ninja every time for me!
Yes we need a review of the expensive one and a comparison to the Cosori.
Thanks
please i am so dyslexic and to top it off 81 and a diabetic one was told i need this. i bought instant vortex plus. got bit today and hope i did good. look to find a friend to read for me. can i keep or should i send back to amazon? please help.
I just bought the ninja Dual air fryer. I used it for the first time last night. Omg! I love it. It has put me in a whole new world of cooking. I live alone and this will help me cooking for myself dramatically. I came upon you videos and I love them. And your children are adorable. Thank you for sharing.
Thanks for being here @artcreationsbydar ! So glad to hear you are loving your air fryer! Thank you for all the support ♥
You hit the nail on the head of why I don’t buy the cheapest. I was happy with my Cosori before the recall. I’m still waiting for my replacement, although I’m now receiving emails telling me that they’re hoping to send it out to me soon. It still may be 6-8 weeks! Thank goodness I bought the mini Cosori to tide me over, although I was thinking about buying cheap, like the Gormia at Costco. After watching your video I’m glad I didn’t!
I finally sent them an email asking for a refund and they sent me a voucher for the full amount. I had my new one in 5 days!! It wouldn't hurt to ask. I had waited since February.
@@susanrobinson408 Yes. I just saw that today. I opted to get a new white one, so I guess I’ll hold out for that. Now, if it’s August, and I still don’t have it, that will be another story!
but that's also overly generalized. Cheap doesn'T equal bad. 2 of my family members have also cheap air fryers , here the are also around 40-60 euros and theirs work fine, not well known brand, super cheap , not much rating and still doing the job for years.But I'm more sceptical . I want my first airfryer to christmas this year to be a cosori, becasue I'm pyrophobic and it seems to be the best choice since many on other ones wrote that they getting too hot outside and such things.
That’s a huge generalization. Mine was $30 from Walmart and it’s amazing.
I paid $20 for mine at Target recently and have used it about three times with great success. It's about as simple as you can get. It's only a 2 qt which is perfect for one to two people. If I decided isn't big enough I can always upgrade.
My first air fryer was a Phillips and I loved it. But it has that old wire basket, so hard to clean. How about testing Philips Premium Airfryer XXL with Fat Removal Technology, 3lb/7qt, Black, HD9650/96 ? I'm waiting for Prime Days to see if the price goes down.
That was actually the first air fryer I owned! It's now at my dad's house. It was a beast to clean! I compared it to the cosori 5.8 quart almost 3 years ago and the results were similar! Cosori is just easier to clean!
Being a first time user I bought a Gormia air fryer for $38.00 at Walmart during their daily Christmas specials last year. I wanted to see if I liked air frying. It also has a mind of it's own. Sometimes it behaves and sometimes not. I ordered a Cosori. It should be here next week.
i have a Gourmia. It's cheap, made in china CRAP, but it is decent. The basket sometimes doesn't go in the fryer, like the unit in this video. I have to push it in and pull it back out a few times to find the grooves so it will slide in right.Thing i really don't like about it is the fact that the crisper tray thing's losing it's paint. Maybe it is teflon? It comes off every time i wash it after use.
I bought a Cosori based on the review on this channel. Loved it, but it was too small. Bought a bigger Cosori. I’m moving into a new home that has a convection oven (air fryer), but I will still use my countertop Cosori so I don’t have to turn the whole oven on!
My Gourmia works great...no problems. Cooks very fast and evenly. After 1 year, the non-stick coating is perfect.
@@steveturton5478 Mine, too.
I've been doing fine with my Gourmia, although when the time comes to buy another air fryer, I'll buy one of Cathy's recommended models. The Cosori Dual Blaze is a bit pricey, but the convenience looks like it's worth the extra $$.
I’m looking for a good air fryer. I’ve had two and they were the worst. I paid $100 and had problems contacting the company. I want another air fryer but want one that will last longer than a few months. So glad I seen your video. Thank you
My faves are listed at AirFryerTools.com!
I have had the original ninja air fryer/pressure cooker since the first Christmas season it was available. I haven't used my oven since I got it. And only used the stove top a couple of times. And it is still running like a champ
@Nan215 I have one Gourmia French Door air fryer that I use in the house and another one we use in our RV. It has about 17 preset functions (I have used many of them). I love it! It was $99.00 at Walmart and hasn't let me down. My son in law and one just like it that he took with him to various jobs (he works on the road in construction). He's used it for about 2 1/2 years and never had a problem, that's why I got mine. It's so nice to be able to use the 400 temp when it's called for and my kitchen doesn't heat up. I had a Power XL that I loved and wore it out, lol, after about 5 years, but I didn't like the way it heated up the area of my counter that I sat it on to use (had plenty of room around it too).
Thanks for the review! I googled Fryernetic and nothing came up. Usually I can get a home page for the company. It really pays to do research on what we buy!
I just checked - the fryer netic cheap airfryer is not listed for sale anywhere in the UK, including Amazon.
I have the 10 quart Paula Deen air fryer in red that I bought off of Amazon and I absolutely love it… So I would really like to see how well you liked it so if you can do a review on Paula deans air fryer I would appreciate it thank you
Did you put food into it before you turned it on?
It's still on Amazon, but now with your 1 star review. I love the "Run away, run away now" part of your review. It's a shame that you weren't able to direct potential buyers to this video so they know the reviewer is creditable. Great video.
I have seen review videos uploaded on amazon ....maybe attempt that?
I would not be so willing to test the cheapest air fryer in your new kitchen . Deathly afraid of fire . Don’t even bother trying to test !! I repeat not worth the risk of fire 🔥🔥🔥🔥
It's gone now. They tucked tail and ran back to China. God help those poor people there who will undoubtedly buy it.
@@claycassin8437 - No, it's still there, with Cathy's review snippet attached to her review. I think it just got a little harder to find.
@@mar4kl That's weird. I did searches by the brand name, "air fryer 6L", and simply "air fryer". I filtered price lowest to highest, and it never showed up in any way. The cheapest air fryer was a DEIME brand one for 59.99. There are quite a few brands at that price, none of them being this one.
I just did another search for simply "air fryer", and I got the exact same result. This air fryer is nowhere to be seen in my results. I will try again.
Nope, still no sign of it. This time I searched through every single air fryer on the site. It took quite awhile. BTW, I am in the US(Texas). Maybe that is having an effect different than yours?
Would love to see the most expensive one. Rated against Cosori. Thank you!
What is the safest air fryer I have heard to only buy the stainless steel models because of the same issue with nonstick pans toxic so what is your opinion on this
Just a question - Have you, in all your multitude of ordering air fryers from Amazon, ever received one that was used and dirty? I watch your videos and carefully chose a model you tested. When it arrived, it was grossly dirty and apparently used before - and never cleaned. Needless to say it went right back. So … have you ever received a dirty product? Many thanks!
This is the fault of Amazon, most likely. Someone probably bought the air fryer and used it and then decided to return it, and somehow it got put back on Amazon's warehouse shelves as new inventory instead of a return.
Yikes! That's gross! Nope, I've never had that happen. And I agree with Kate, it's definitely an Amazon issue!
I received a pressure cooker dirty and obviously used, I put in a review of one and the retailer asked me to remove my review because they reimbursed me my cost of the cooker. I never did get my money reimbursed and I never adjusted my review, we are at a stand off.
Amazon sent me returned Surge Protectors. I made them refund my purchase. Who in their right mind would trust used surge protectors?
My son bought me the Paula Deene one in red for Mother's Day.... love it! There was no weird smell or taste in my food...nice size basket...easy to use..and visually pleasing 🙂. I had the Cosori before that and was not impressed 🙂
@@osakarose5612 😄 thanks
Why didn’t you like the Cosori?
@barbaracarlson1331 it's been a while since I've returned it, but if I remember correctly...it was big, bulky, awkward looking to me, and I still found myself flipping my food, and it didn't cook fast ...in my opinion. Oh also, although the outside was big...the basket wasn't big enough for me. I'm still loving Paula Dean's af though. It cooks fast, doesn't take up a lot of room, huge basket, and looks good on the counter space. There were only minor findings with that one.
Too much drama! How about reading the instructions before you poke the life out of it. Definitely NOT subscribing!!
Wow, I am stunned Amazon still has the listing up. I just contacted them to report it. CS agent said he would "escalate the issue." Will be interesting to see how long it takes them to take down the listing or if they ever do!
What do you think about A stove that has an air fryer function? Does it work just the same or better than a standalone air fryer?
cathy when is corsori going to produce a heavy duty handle for my corsori af168 same happen to my 158 the handle just came right off and i dont shake basket for that reason please help me get replacement basket with handle
Sometimes the sellers write there own reviews, say product is great. Then you buy it and it is junk, like that air Fryer. Has happened to my daughter, so the tip on checking reviews and sticking to the ones with thousand or more review is the best way to get a good product.
Unrelated but my sister thought she found a deal on a switch game, she ordered it and received a pair of ugly sock 6 months later. So if it's to good to believe, don't believe.
Thank you!
that sock story had me laughing 🤣
I have an Instant Pot brand 6 quart Air Fryer I bought from Target and it’s perfect. I actually got it refurbished by Target because I’d much rather pay $50 than $120 and I’ve gotta say they did a really good job at refurbishing it. So I would highly recommend, but if they don’t have the refurbished ones definitely wait for a sale. Like I just looked and a new one is on sale for $80
I bought an air fryer from Asda about a year ago for £34 (about $44) and it's been great. It's just got a simple dial for switching on/timer and another dial for temperature control and no LED display. Very easy to operate and so far I don't really have any complaints (though I don't use it every day) when buying a cheap one its probably better to buy something like that than getting something with all the fancy buttons/lights.
Of course very cheap products need even more vigilant attention before buying, but like you, I bought an own-brand for €50 ($53) from a real store : Carrefour, a French Hypermarket.
Their own brand is called MANDINE and the model I bought has 5L (5.3Qts) capacity and 1900W. In France, own brands tend to be good-value for money and the distributor often imposes above average specifications.
I take Cathy's point that cheaper Air Fryers ON THE INTERNET will have lower quality teflon coating etc and are mostly a waste of money, but I wouldn't have bought a more expensive one, because at that point, I felt I had everything I needed in my kitchen. Nor apparently would the elderly lady above who's on social security.
It's early days to rate my recent purchase but I would say "so far, so good".
Cathy, a more interesting comparison for me would have been to test a "classic" upmarket airfryer like a Philips with a very cheap one, but chosen with discernment; maybe an own-brand like mine or guywakeford's (although I'm not sure that Asda or Carrefour would let you have one to test)
Incidentally, I'm new to your channel and I find your videos great !
Definitely a case of you get what you pay for. Since it didn’t even have a UL tag, I wouldn’t have plugged it in for fear of sparks and fire. Guess that’s just default reaction since my dad was an electrician.
"UL Listed" is not even a guarantee that it is in compliance with their guidelines...it would have to be "UL Certified" to mean that UL has actually tested the product for themselves. It is really just a promise that they are following the rules, and have paid the licensing fee to be able to stamp it on their product...what could possibly go wrong with that? Of course there is no corruption and bribery in China, right?
I got my replacement cosori - it is the best, BUT does anyone know how do I register it. Wants an order number and if it is from cosori it should be SHxxx ?? no where on the outer box or inside. help!
Please tell me what meat thermometer you use. There are so many on Amazon and I already wasted money on one that never worked right. Thank you.
I brought the nuwave bravo xl do you have videos on it?
"Honey, where's the fire extinguisher?" LOL!
My first AF was a Dash and the coating started flaking off the basket pretty quick so I trashed it. I bought a Ninja basket type 2 or 3 years ago and love it. I use it at least once a day.
I did a lot of reasearch and in my budget range, got the one reccommende by 15+ test sites and I love it. Not the cheapest and closer to being expensive, but I intend to have and use it for the rest of my life. Also a well known brand
I have found that Amazon and other stores like Walmart will send you returned items that prior buyer said wasn’t used, but was. I have found missing directions and missing hardware etc. sometimes if you explain situation, they will refund your money and you do not even have to return the item.
I agree with you about that air fryer. I wouldn't want to have something like that in my house that kept on running when you pulled the basket out. Good thinking for having a fire extinguisher in your house. As for your fire extinguisher, they last 10-12 years.
Write the expiration date ON THE BOTTLE so it stands out. Also, buy one with a gauge. The bottle may say 10-12 years. Not much good if you find out that you had a tiny pressure leak at year 5 and needed it at year 6. I tossed one this year about 4 years after it's shelf life. You yucks, I tried it out. It worked fine. It didn't have a gauge. Still would have bought a replacement. But I probably would have kept the expired one as long as the gauge was in the green zone.
LOL,
You are quite funny !
A "fryernetic air fryer appointment button" refers to a function on an air fryer that allows you to set a specific time in the future for your food to start cooking, essentially "scheduling" your meal to be ready when you want it, even if you're not currently at home; it's essentially a delayed start feature.
Still loving our Instant Vortex 6 qt nonstick air fryer. Super easy cleanup and very easy to operate.
Wow unbelievable.....Thank you for all you do!!!
Can u make a video about the advantages and disadvantages of the air fryer?🙏
This one might help! ruclips.net/video/gudb8qKT4E4/видео.html
@@empoweredcooks thanks
The expensive one doesn't seem very expensive, I'm in the UK so not sure how much it works out in £ but it seems OK price wise .
P.S. I loved my Cosori and was disappointed it was recalled. Mine was the 5.8 quart with the stainless steel front on the basket. Not really happy with the replacement they sent me. It's a plain, black one and it doesn't have a shake reminder and the basket is a different size/shape than the one from my first one so I can't even use the old one as a spare. I'll keep using this one...but I have a feeling I may want to replace it in a year or two.
I use a Gourmia from Costco 3 1/2 years ago and still using. Not a little more expensive one from QVC which is still in the garage for when this one dies. But got my Gourmia at Costco was $59. And then they had them on sale for $49. So yikes this looks really horrible.
Have you checked behind the burner on top it's probably really greasy dirty by now, I buy a new one every one and a half to two years , but I do use mine everyday, just saying.
Please tell me again…which Cosori do you recommend? I have a small (2.6 qt) DASH which works great but it’s not big enough. Too small for corn tortillas or mini pizza. Your videos are very helpful👍
What's your opinion of the Ninja range? Dual Zone?
Haven't tried it! But I know that the two baskets can be a bit small and inhibiting. I have this Instant VersaZone where you can cook in two zones OR remove the divider and have one nice large basket, and it works good! It's the first one on this list: amzn.to/45Abcsh
I bought a Cosori Dual Blaze after watching your reviews. ❤️ It was quite expensive (here in Sweden) but I am so happy with it and I use it at least two times a day for all kinds of food. Do you have any tips for making popcorn 🍿 in it? My little popcorn maker is on its last breath. 😇💖🙏🙌
Popcorn is a little sketchy! But I've done it! Let me find the video....
I love my Cosori Air Fryer! I Purchased it around 7 months ago after watching your review on it. Thank you!
I think the $49 that I spent on a Instant Mini Vortex was a better buy.
I have a power xl and it’s ok but next one will be a Cosori. I bought the power xl 7 qt. from QVC. So far it’s fine
I would love to see a video on the most expensive
Got it! Thanks for watching, Jeff!
What about trying the air fryers that don’t have the baskets but instead have trays and rotating baskets.
I think that you are thinking of the oven style air fryers. I do believe that Cathy reviewed those and didn't care for them.
I have the oven style and love it. I think it's just a matter of preference. 🙂
Amazingly, this product is still on Amazon. Except now it has 4 ratings and all of them are 1 star. Judging by those reviews, this video is pretty accurate.
I'm a little surprised that there aren't any fake 5 star reviews yet.
The only thing I would question is why someone would put plastic clips inside an air fryer and not expect something to smell.
I bought an almost similar looking one from Just Vegan for 129 Euros, without toxic stuff, I was sure it would be great but as I unpacked it looked very cheap inside with a similar looking thing inside. I found it odd because it looks cheap and not like something that worth 129! Creepy is: it looks 99% similar to this cheap one
Thanks Cathy...
Thank for watching! ☺️
i bought a similar air fryer on tiktok shop cost £8.37 or $10.59 had no problem with it does the job its supposed to , just found ur channel and like it
It’s often on the back,of the AF by the way open a box AF etc, open all 4 flaps
Great video! I've always believed in buying something tried and true with lots of reviews.
Harry here: I agree with you on watching what you buy online.... We've gone through sooooo muccccch stuff that is sent to us to try out that I wind up tossing the majority of it out... Then try to warn people about it... I'm SO WITH YOU ON THIS...GREAT VIDEO
Good thing this wasn’t your first rodeo testing air fryers…. It would have scarred you from buying another air fryer for life! Lol
😂 😂 😂 TRUE!
I noticed a few other strange things with the "Fryernetic" air fryer. For example, the pictures on Amazon show a somewhat different control panel than your unit had. The "Appointment" button on yours is a "Preset" button in the pictures, but neither makes much sense, since the unit also has a "Function" button. Maybe it's supposed to be a Turn Reminder button. I also have no idea why an air fryer needs a "Nut" or "Nuts" preset. I suppose I could toast nuts in my air fryer, but that's not something I would do very often. And, as a few others have pointed out, this unit probably doesn't have a UL listing because of its 2400W power usage claim. If that claim is accurate, it most likely means that the air fryer was intended for countries with 220-240V household electrical systems, and the very least that should have been changed for US-bound models would have been to change the plug so it would only fit in 20-amp sockets. All in all, this was a very entertaining review, although it would have been even more so if you could have worked your kids into it somehow. 😄
Yes, designed for EU, it has the CE symbol that is Europe equivalent of the american one. In reality is not much a garantee but better than nothing.
Can you review the Salton clear air fryer? Thank you
Yikes! What an experience! You are perfectly justified sending it back!
I agree! I had a large one like this a Presto AirDaddy and it cooked great but the sliding door would hang up constantly and I tried to fix it but it persisted and so I thru the thing on the ground outside and bought one with conventional doors like an oven!
Check the CE mark on it.. C E = all good, CE = China Export.. Basically if the CE symbol line up the C with the E you get 0 information regarding testing and standards, if there is a spacing you have an authentic CE certified product which has been through rigorous testing.
They most likely measured the volume without the racket, they (the chinese manufacturers) rarely stick to standard measurements..
Yeah, keep a fire extinguisher pointed at it at all times while it's plugged in..
I'd say that "appointment" is equal to "timer or timed setting"
Tell us about Paula Dean's air fryer. Curious................
The quarts and liters is the capacity that it can hold and not just the bottom measurements of the length and width. 1 unit is tall and 1 is wider
I'd like to see that review with Paula vs COSORI. I've been thinking of buying a Paula Deen. Also could you please do a review of a clamshell style?
Ninja also have this "never-stop-unless-you-beg-for-it" function. It always keeps running when you pull the basket off. To change temperature format, usually you press and keep press the T button for 2-5 seconds.
"Pluggin in, Fryernetic, I have an appointment..."girl, i couldnt help myself, I wasn't expecting you to say that and it took me out...I spit out my tea!!! Biggest laugh I've had in weeks!!! Happy holiday season family - Be safe and take care😎
Haha! I'm sorry about your tea, but I'm glad I could give you a good laugh! Laughter is the best medicine, right? Wishing you a fantastic holiday season and lots more laughs!
I have a Ninja ( $100.00) and a Gourmia , $39.00 from Costco and LOVE the Gourmia!!
Why?
By now it's junk!
I was looking for this unit on Amazon Canada and, to my surprise, I found a Frigidaire Air Fryer for $38 CDN!!! And, hold on to your hat, it has a 4.4 rating! It has a 1.8 L capacity. I plain can’t believe this! But I still love my Cosori.
found this by accident, ok first thing, Celsius, like the full metric system makes sense, 1Ltr water is 1000 grams, 1 cubic meter of water is 1000 Kg or 1 ton, all divisible by 10, Celsius 0 degC freezing point of water, 100, boiling point of water, answering someone's comment about plastic bits on basket, these will be silicone, melting point extremely high, when you removed the basket was it just the fan kept running, (this is normal) to disperse the heat from the unit with the basket removed, or did the element stay on? no certification mark, especially in the UK is not allowed, Amazon would not be allowed to sell such an item here, however ive not checked as i live in Thailand. I also noted only a 2 pin plug, there was no double insulation sign on the appliance meaning high risk of electric shock, and the unit must be earthed, especially with this power rating.
I LOVE my Instant Vortex 4-quart! Had it a couple months now. Stupid easy to cook with and clean. Got a fantastic review from America’s Test Kitchen. Use it regularly. 👍👍
Yes please do a video on the most expensive one, would love to know what makes it expensive and is it worth it?
have you ever tried the Bella line of ari fryers?
Yes, please do a review of the Paula Dean model. It looks like a beast!
Can you do a review of the Costco Fournier air fryer?
I've ordered the Dreo. It will give a new definition to the term most expensive. I ordered early for $199. As the program kicks into gear, it will become more expensive. As I have watched the demonstrations, it seems to be much more than just an air fryer, using a probe that samples both the food item temperature and the internal oven temperature. It also has a water source to keep some things moist while others might be crisp. Seems to have a lot of intelligence with a wide choice of selections and internal recipes; a much advanced technology.
I'm still using mr recalled Cosori, yes I know. . . . But I figure if only a few hundred out of two million sold, I'll take my chances and upgrade next year.
Hii my name is George did u get ur refund. I bought a air fryer called pipfco. I’m looking forward to trying that with my friend Eric . Eric loves my chips beans and fish fingers .
Would love to see a Corsair vs Paula Dean. Just ordered my Cosori 2 air fryer yesterday 😊
Yay!
Paula Deans won't cook soul food.
If it doesn’t have UL sticker.. it’s probably not advisable to plug into US outlet.. Europe and China use a different wattage a lot lower
I'm glad you stopped when the Fryernetic failed. Getting this bad air fryer info out there is more important than continuing with Paula Deen's air fryer. Holly snotty! Please do another video for Paula Deen's, I doubt it is worth that high price, blinky lights and all! Thanks for sharing!!!
l bought a cheap one from kmart and it is good, not long after nz consumer magazine recommended it as the best buy, after that they were sold out, 3 people i know have one and they are all satisfied. had my one for 2 years now and the only problem is the teflon coating on the basket is coming off, but a cheap silicone mat fixed that, it was a not branded but at nz$69 dollars it cooks just as well as my sisters nz$500 machine, it is small though l can only get 750g of chips in it. ps the fan is really strong, it will flip burger buns and blow the cheese off of the bread
still use the OLD air fryer I got for a present - best use might be reheating fries & other doggie bag things.
yeah we have a micro wave too [soggy stuff]
also have a gas oven [way better than electric]
the air fryer i kinda like a convection oven or a hair dryer lol, but less time in this old air fryer.
its the old egg style that works much better than newer models [but it is smaller]
can buy them at the 2nd hand shops for cheap. or like $30 at a wally world when they might have them on clearance
Ive seen the newer models and I agree those are not as good. not even a gift as I like the old one much better.
I did have a Gormia for my 1st air fryer. But it met an untimely death. It fell off my counter just after I shook it and walked away to turn to see it in mid air falling .It was in pieces. My late husband's first words out of his mouth as he yells from another room, "You are not gluing it back together. I have a thing abut glue thing back if I can.Since I watch you all the time. I had to get the Cosori lll Pro because of you and I love it ! This has been one of the funniest video about an off brand air fryer. My husband's favorite saying and we still comment on it when buying something that my kids and I think we could get a cheaper product. "You get what you pay for". I know it's not an original saying but it keeps us from doing this. Lol on this video !
Your late husband was a wise man. I'm all about fixing things when I can, but the heating elements of an air fryer get hot enough to cause severe burns and start fires. The risk of trying to fix one is just not worth the modest savings, especially if you're talking about Gourmia air fryers, which are usually under $100.
Should have thrown it off!
