Product Information

The handbook has a page on how to use the presets, which includes adjustments of time and temperature required for different food items. If you want a budget-friendly air fryer that's as stylish as it is effective, then the Cosori Pro LE Air Fryer L501 is worth considering. Although we struggled to find any real need for the app (setting the air-fryer to go takes very little time), it is useful to be able to check how much time is left from afar and for the bank of Cosori recipes it houses. On test, we found the air fryer produced crisp, crunchy fries with soft, fluffy potato inside and succulent juicy chicken wings. Those with two drawers are particularly handy if you want to cook different foods at the same time, but they can take up a lot more room in the kitchen than their more compact counterparts.

Of course, despite all of these pros to getting an air fryer, sometimes they're not the right fit for every kitchen. The Ninja Woodfire Outdoor Grill is designed for cooking outdoors – but, surprisingly, it’s electric. It was hard to resist the temptation to peek at our first batch of chips as they cooked inside the Dual Blaze, but the dual heating element really impressed us, turning out evenly crisp golden fries and perfectly cooked thick-cut chips. This multi-cooker's top feature is that it only has one lid, unlike many that need one for pressure cooking and one for everything else (including the Instant Pot above).If you use it to make foods that take longer, like a full chicken, you may find the remote monitoring and control features more useful. The air frying function is able to circulate air around the food more efficiently to achieve a more even crisp. Evenly browned chips with a crisp exterior and good flavour before seasoning are what we look for from each model tested. The Reuse Network lists the nearest charities and community projects that will welcome your old gadgets. As well as being used in place of an oven, air fryers can be an easier way to prepare dishes usually cooked on a stove, without having to watch them like a hawk and turn them before they burn.

This means that they can be more versatile than the more traditional air fryer, with a larger capacity and more forgiving shape of cooking area. Finally, they make fairy cakes, to judge how well the appliance can bake and how evenly air circulates – the better baked and fluffier the cakes, the more efficient the air flow. Air-fryers use hot air instead of oil, so are healthier than deep-fat fryers, and more versatile and energy efficient for cooking smaller quantities than ovens. It took a while to roast a chicken but, 45 minutes later, it came out golden and moist, while our fairy cakes were just right.I have been with PCMag for more than 10 years, and in that time have written more than 6,000 articles and reviews for the site. Our testers loved the handy alert that reminds you to turn your food at crucial cooking points and were pleased with how easy it is to use, programme, and clean (it’s dishwasher-safe). New to Cosori's range of air-fryers, the TurboBlaze is a stylish, six-litre gadget with nine presets, including air-fry, roast, grill, prove, and reheat.

We loved its tall, compact design and simple touchscreen, which displays 12 cooking functions – from chicken, steak and seafood, to vegetables and fries. If you're still unsure we've got plenty of inspiration when it comes to what you can cook in an air fryer?Our chips were a pale golden colour after 25 mins at 190C (using the 'fries' preset), and had a fluffy middle and crisp, well-sealed exterior.

It proved intuitive to use on test, thanks to a clear display panel, responsive controls and easy-to-use pre-sets. It is large, making it one for bigger kitchens, but its 10-litre capacity is ideal if you frequently feed a crowd. After a brief flick through of the manual we were able to get cooking pretty quickly thanks to the easy set up. Just bear in mind that, as in our experience, it takes a bit of tweaking and guesswork to get cooking times and temperatures right.it's a lot more affordable than smart ovens like the Brava, making it a welcome addition to your kitchen.
