However, depending on the food or cleanup required, it’s often best to keep the grates exposed to ensure air is circulating as efficiently as possible and to separate oil from fatty ingredients for maximum crispiness. Having reviewed countless air fryers, I can honestly say that this COSORI model is among the best I've ever used.

Otherwise, it's lightweight enough to take in and out of a cupboard after and before each use, plus it's super easy to use with a generous 11 pre-set programs. We were able to cook two chicken kievs in it at once and the end results were crispy, while our chips were well-browned. Some we felt the cumbersome size outweighed the results, and others were simply too small to recommend for most household uses.What really sets this Cosori air-fryer apart is its clever technology – the patented dual heating elements allow for even browning on both sides, so no shaking or stirring is required as you cook.

I can’t cook a pizza and possibly would struggle to get a whole chicken in unless it was a small one.

A little lacking in the Brussels and garlic arena, this air fryer won't do you wrong if you're not too worried about caramelizing vegetables. Every time you touch a button the COSORI Air Fryer beeps, but the panel is responsive and it's easy to start, pause, and pre-heat. With most air-fryers, you need to shake your chips halfway through cooking (or more often if you want to see how they are getting on).

Then, it's just a case of selecting your preferred setting and adjusting the temperature and time if needed. If the air isn’t circulating while it’s cooking, you’re not going to get the crispy, consistent results you’re looking for.
