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.

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.

Hi Kathy, love your channel and subscribed! I bought the Cosori in white recently and absolutely love it! So quick and easy and I now realise how dry chicken was for example after cooking it in the main oven even when covered in foil! The recipes are great and easy to follow can’t wait to try them. My wife didn’t see the value or need for it at first and wasn’t convinced, but now after about 4 uses she’s already seeing the benefits 👍

My daughter surprised me with a Cosori Air Fryer for Mother’s Day this weekend and now I’m looking for tips on how to use it. I don’t want to repeat the mistake I made when I received the Instant Pot and waited for almost 6 months before opening the package only to realize that I should have opened and used it the day I received it because it’s such a time saver. Thank you for your videos to help me get started using my Cosori right away without fear.

Hey Marie, don't get one. Trust me, the potato fries turn-out horrendous. It takes lots of place in the kitxhen. A regular oven with fan is so much better and works on the same principle. An air fryer cannot compete with an oil fryer (which is messy)

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.
