Is Cosori Worth It? 2026 Review
Cosori’s $119.99 TurboBlaze does almost everything its $249 Iconic does. Here is which basket size to buy, which upgrade is mostly styling, and what the 30-day return window really asks of you.
We may earn a commission if you buy through our links, once we join a brand's program. It never changes a call. How that works.
- Skip the upgrade
- Skip the $249 Iconic. It shares the TurboBlaze’s 1,725W rating and 450°F ceiling, so the extra $129 mostly buys stainless steel and a longer warranty.
- Best time to buy
- Check the Daily Sale page before checkout. In October it held four items, and only the 30-liter toaster oven was actually discounted, from $169.99 to $149.99.

Cosori is the kitchen brand of VeSync, the company behind Levoit and Etekcity, and most Americans meet it on Amazon. Its own US store sells the same air fryers, kettles and dehydrators with free shipping to the lower 48 states, and its prices sit in the middle of the market: $59.99 for the smallest air fryer, $249 for the stainless flagship.
The range is crowded with near-twins, so the useful question is which step-up earns its money. Most do not. The $119.99 TurboBlaze has the motor, the 450°F ceiling and the 6-quart basket that matter; the models above it add steel, an app or a second basket. Buy the TurboBlaze unless you cook for five or more, and keep the box for 30 days.
What to buy (and what not to)
TurboBlaze 6.0-Quart Air Fryer
$119.99 Dark Gray. The Cream and Light Gray versions, which add app control, list at $129.99.
A DC-motor air fryer with a 6-quart basket and a 450°F ceiling, for $130 less than the Iconic.
The TurboBlaze was Cosori’s first air fryer with a DC motor, and that motor drives five fan speeds that Cosori pairs with nine functions, including dehydrate and proof. The basket and crisper plate carry a PFAS-free ceramic coating and go in the dishwasher. Cosori says it cooks up to 46% faster than its older Pro Gen 2.
The Dark Gray model has no app, and for most people that is the right trade. The weaknesses show up in independent reviews rather than on cosori.com, which carries no product reviews of its own. TechRadar found results inconsistent, with burnt and undercooked fries in the same batch, and Reviewed disliked that preheat runs as a separate cycle you must restart from. Plan to shake the basket and shave a few minutes off the guidebook times.
Not so good
- Preheat is a separate cycle, so you reset the timer afterward
- Reviewers report uneven results with fries and vegetables
Good
- Same 1,725W rating and 450°F ceiling as the $249 Iconic
- PFAS-free ceramic basket and crisper plate are dishwasher-safe
- Timer runs up to 24 hours for dehydrating
The numbers
- Capacity 6 qt, serves 3-5
- Rated power 1,725W
- Temperature range 90°F to 450°F
- Weight 13.2 lb

Cosori Pro LE 5.0-Quart Air Fryer
$99.99 Same price in black, white and green.
A smaller, quieter AC-motor fryer that costs only $20 less than the TurboBlaze, which is the problem.
The Pro LE is Cosori’s older design: a 5-quart basket, a 1,500W rating and an angled glass display. Its selling point is Air Whisper, which Cosori says keeps noise as low as 55dB. The footprint is a little smaller than the TurboBlaze, and the timer stops at 60 minutes, so long dehydrating jobs are out.
At $99.99 the maths is awkward. Twenty dollars more buys a bigger basket, 225 more watts and the newer motor. Homes & Gardens found the Pro LE quiet but prone to overcooking, charring bacon, and noted that the glass panel collects smudges. One careful-reader detail: the spec table on its product page lists a temperature range labeled for the TurboBlaze and a pressure cooker, a copy-paste slip, so treat that line with caution. Buy it only when a sale opens a real gap.
Not so good
- Only $20 cheaper than a larger, more powerful TurboBlaze
- Runs hot; reviewers found it easy to overcook
Good
- Rated as low as 55dB, quieter than most fryers
- Slightly smaller footprint than the TurboBlaze
The numbers
- Capacity 5 qt
- Rated power 1,500W
- Time range 1-60 min
- Weight 10 lb

Lite 2.1-Quart Mini Air Fryer
$59.99 Same price in gray, red, white and green.
Cosori’s cheapest air fryer, a 2.1-quart unit under 5 pounds that suits one or two eaters.
The Lite is small on purpose. Cosori sizes it for one or two people, or as a second unit for a family that already owns a big fryer, and it weighs 4.87 pounds, light enough to live in a cupboard. It has four functions (air fry, roast, bake, reheat), a crisper plate instead of the usual double basket, and Cosori claims it runs under 48dB.
The limits are written into the spec sheet. The 900W element tops out at 400°F, 50 degrees short of the bigger models, and the 2.1-quart basket means cooking in batches for anyone feeding more than two. Independent reviews also mention that there is no shake reminder, so you need to remember yourself. As a first air fryer for a single cook, at half the TurboBlaze’s price, it makes sense.
Not so good
- 400°F maximum and 900W, slower than full-size models
- Too small for more than two people per batch
Good
- Lowest price in Cosori’s air fryer range
- Light and compact, easy to store between uses
The numbers
- Capacity 2.1 qt
- Rated power 900W
- Temperature range 170°F to 400°F
- Weight 4.87 lb

COSORI TWINFRY 9-Quart Double Air Fryer
$179.99
One wide basket with a removable divider: two 4.5-quart zones, or a single 9-quart space for a whole chicken.
The TwinFry solves the classic dual-basket complaint, that neither half fits anything large. Pull the divider and you get a 9-quart basket; leave it in and the two 4.5-quart zones run separately, with Sync to finish both at once and Match to mirror the settings. It reaches 465°F, the highest figure in Cosori’s range, and the ceramic basket and crisper plate are PFAS-free and dishwasher-safe.
It costs $10 more than Cosori’s older 9-quart dual-basket model, which cannot become one big basket, so the TwinFry is the one to choose. The catch is bulk: 19 inches deep and 17.2 pounds. And because the two zones are one basket split by a divider, Cosori’s own layout means checking one dish pulls out both, which matters when the side finishes long before the main. Cosori.com has no reviews to show how the divider holds up.
Not so good
- 19 inches deep, a lot of counter for a fryer
- Both zones share one drawer
Good
- Converts between two zones and one 9-quart basket
- Highest temperature in the range at 465°F
The numbers
- Capacity 9 qt, or two 4.5-qt zones
- Rated power 1,750W
- Temperature range 95°F to 465°F
- Weight 17.2 lb

30 Liter Smart Air Fryer Toaster Oven
$169.99 In October it was on Cosori’s Daily Sale page at $149.99.
A countertop oven that toasts six slices, fits a 13-inch pizza and air fries, with app control included.
If you would rather own one box than three, this is the Cosori to look at. The 30-liter cavity fits six slices of toast or a 13-inch pizza, there are 13 presets including rotisserie, sous vide and ferment, and the VeSync app can set temperature and time from your phone. Cosori includes a 100-recipe book and a removable crumb tray.
The price on sale is the case for it: at $149.99 it costs $30 more than the TurboBlaze and also replaces a toaster. The drawbacks are size and heat. At 20.1 by 16.5 inches and 19.6 pounds it claims a real slice of counter, and an open-cavity oven air fries less intensely than a basket fryer, a trade-off independent reviewers raise about air-fryer ovens in general. Buy it if counter space allows and you toast daily.
Not so good
- 20.1 x 16.5 inches and almost 20 pounds
Good
- Toasts, bakes, roasts and air fries in one unit
- 13 presets, rotisserie included, plus app control
The numbers
- Capacity 30 L, 6 slices or a 13-inch pizza
- Rated power 1,800W
- Presets 13
- Weight 19.6 lb with accessories

Original Electric Gooseneck Kettle
$69.99 Same price in Matte Black and Stainless Steel.
A 0.8-liter stainless gooseneck with five temperature presets and an hour of hold-warm.
Cosori’s gooseneck kettle covers what pour-over brewers need without the price of a café brand. Five presets run from 170°F for white tea to a full boil, a Hold Temp button keeps water at temperature for up to 60 minutes, and the body, lid and spout are food-grade stainless steel. Boil-dry protection cuts power if less than half a cup is left inside.
The weakness is longevity. A one-star Trustpilot review this year describes a $70 multi-temperature Cosori kettle that died after exactly a year, and another reviewer describes a weeks-long warranty process that asked for serial numbers, an invoice and a video. The 0.8-liter capacity also means two mugs at most. The two-year warranty helps, but register the kettle and keep the receipt.
Not so good
- Small 0.8-liter capacity
- Some owners report kettles failing around the one-year mark
Good
- Five presets cover green tea through coffee
- Holds temperature for up to an hour
The numbers
- Capacity 0.8 L
- Rated power 1,200W
- Presets 170°F, 180°F, 195°F, 205°F, boil
- Hold temp up to 60 minutes

Iconic The Stainless Steel 6.5-Quart Smart Air Fryer
$249 Not on sale in October; more than double the Dark Gray TurboBlaze.
A handsome stainless-steel flagship with a 5-year warranty, and the same cooking specs as a fryer half its price.
Put the Iconic’s spec table next to the TurboBlaze’s and the overlap is striking: the same 1,725W rating, the same 90°F to 450°F range, the same 24-hour timer. The Iconic adds a stainless steel body, tempered glass, half a quart of basket, VeSync app control and a five-year warranty, the longest Cosori offers. Read that warranty closely, though: the basket, crisper plate and silicone feet are covered for one year only.
We pass on it at $249 because the $10 app-enabled TurboBlaze in Cream gets you most of the way. Bob Vila’s reviewer liked the build but found the steel shows fingerprints immediately and the fan about as loud as any other air fryer. It is a looks-and-warranty upgrade, and an expensive one.
Not so good
- Same power and temperature range as the $119.99 TurboBlaze
- Basket and crisper plate are covered for only one year
Good
- Five-year warranty on the main unit
- Stainless steel body with less plastic
The numbers
- Capacity 6.5 qt
- Rated power 1,725W
- Warranty 5 years; basket parts 1 year
- Weight 14.1 lb

What customers say
Cosori.com publishes no product reviews of its own, so the customer picture comes from Trustpilot, where its profile rated 2.5 out of 5, “Poor”, when we read it in October.
Read the one-star reviews closely and many are not about the US store at all. Buyers in Australia and the UK describe orders that never arrived, and one reviewer found that the site they paid was an unofficial shop posing as Cosori. Still, the warranty complaints hit home: owners describe being asked for serial numbers, invoices and videos, then waiting a week or two for a replacement. One reviewer whose air fryer had been a gift had no receipt and was turned down despite registering it.
The positive reviews are mostly about support going further than required, including a whole Dual Blaze replaced over a broken handle and a price-match refund within a working day.

| Buying experience | 2.8 | 15% |
| Smart Score | 3.8/5 | |
Well-priced air fryers with honest spec sheets, pulled down by a short return window that needs an RMA number, slow warranty claims and a 2.5 Trustpilot rating.
Other brands to check
- Ninja. Choose it instead if you want dual-drawer models where each basket opens on its own.
- Instant Brands. Choose it instead if you want an air fryer lid or combo for an existing pressure cooker.
- Breville. Choose it instead if you want a premium countertop oven and will pay well above Cosori’s prices.
Quick questions
Is it better to buy Cosori on its own site or on Amazon?
Prices on cosori.com matched list prices in October, with free shipping to the lower 48 states but no expedited option. Buying direct gets you a 30-day return window, though returns need an RMA number from support first. Whichever you choose, buy from Cosori or an authorized seller: the warranty page says coverage does not extend to unauthorized sellers, and Cosori has warned about fake shops.
Was my Cosori air fryer part of the recall?
In early 2023 Cosori recalled about two million air fryers in the US over a wire connection that could overheat, according to NBC News coverage of the CPSC announcement. The recalled units were sold from June 2018 to December 2022 in several colors. If you bought a Cosori air fryer in that window, check its model number against the recall notice before using it again.
What does the Cosori warranty cover?
Most products carry a two-year limited warranty from the original purchase date, and Cosori may refund, repair or replace at its discretion. It covers the original buyer only and needs proof of purchase. Parts that wear out, dishwasher damage on items not marked dishwasher-safe, and commercial use are excluded. The Iconic gets five years, but its basket, crisper plate and feet get one.
Do I need the app-connected version?
Probably not. On the TurboBlaze the app adds remote control, progress monitoring and voice control for $10 more than the Dark Gray model. That is cheap, but most people still need to walk over to shake the basket. The app matters more on the toaster oven, where scheduling and long cooks like dehydrating and sous vide make remote control more useful.
