Which is the best air fryer oven? There are so many brands and models out there, that it really tough to decide which is best.
I decided to test out the Cosori Air Fryer Oven because I have had so much success with my Cosori 5.8 quart Air Fryer. You can read my Cosori Air Fryer review here.

Which is Better Air Fryer or Air Fryer Oven?
This is totally going to depend on your needs. The Cosori 5.8 quart Air Fryer works wonderfully for singles and small families. The basket is square and large enough to fit most meat. Ultimately, if you currently have an air fryer, that isn't a 5.8 quart and does not have a square shaped basket, I would upgrade. I have the Power Air Fryer XL, as well, and I prefer my Cosori, a lot more.
With the Cosori Air Fryer Oven you have a little more room and a ton more features! Check out the features list below. The oven will feed 5-7 people, a great choice for a big family or treating friends at home,

How Does an Air Fryer Oven Work?
It's like a convection oven that sits on your countertop. It has an electric fan that circulates inside to help crisp food at a rapid pace. The results are very similar to deep frying. You can get things like crispy and crunchy fries in minutes.
How is an air fryer oven different from an oven? Conventional ovens work by producing heat from gas or electric. The heat is slowly dispersed through the oven over time. With an air fryer oven, that time is sped up by the use of a fan.

How to Clean Cosori Air Fryer Oven
Always clean the oven accessories, trays, and the interior of the oven after every use. Use a mild cleanser, nothing harsh. The manual does not state that the trays are dishwasher safe.
When making chicken I did find there was a lot of clean up, especially on the oven door. When I open the oven to flip the chicken, the air fryer basket sits directly over the door when you pull it out.
With fried chicken, there are definitely drippings. I do find that with making a recipe like chicken, there's more clean up required than with a standard air fryer. I typically use Air Fryer Parchment Paper with my normal air fryer which dramatically cuts down on the cleaning.

Cosori Air Fryer Oven Notes
The first thing I tested out was my Air Fryer Chicken Thighs. I used the middle rack and the air fryer fry basket. I fried the chicken thighs for about 28 minutes on 400 degrees. I made sure they were crispy enough for me and that they had reached an internal temperature of 165 degrees.
Here are some things I noticed during my first frying.
- The oven gets hot. Always handle the oven with mitts while in use.
- There is a light you can turn on so you can watch the food while it cooks, very cool!
- When cooking something like chicken, it's greasy food, so expect some smoke.
Air Fryer Oven Pros
I like being able to watch the food cook. I love that this thing comes with a lot of features. The rotisserie and dehydrator functions are definite game-changers. The ferment function is amazing too! You can use it for proofing bread, pizza, and dough. And it can also be used for making yogurt.
Cosori Air Fryer Cons
- When you open the oven, the timer continues to run. I'm used to it pausing and picking up where it left off with normal air fryer.
- There's a little more clean up than what I'm used to with a normal air fryer.
Final Thoughts and Recommendations
If you want an all in one machine, this is for you! There are so many things this device is capable of doing. It is much more than just an air fryer or a toaster!
If you have a large family, this is definitely the move for you! One of the most common questions I get from my readers is whether or not an air fryer will work for their family size. An oven is almost always the best solution.
If you have a small air fryer already and you are frustrated, make the move and upgrade!

How much is it?
Kenani Genre says
I love the fact that it's easy to clean, it makes much more than those standard ones,and it's the right size and shape for most counters, and it seems that it's much more efficient than those little toys they call AR fryers, this is like several steps up from those clunky little hard to clean, hard to remove your food without several burns, andthe efficiency, it would be great not to flip things, at least quite as often and I loveythe fact that they fry without grease, I'm diabetic, so I try to avoid fried foods,because of carbs, so this would definitely curb the carbs to some extent,making it perfect for some one who cooks for a small family,boy would I like one of these.TThsnk you.
Melissa says
I like how many options you have with this oven. I have run out of space in my air fryer, so the larger area of this oven would be a plus. Definitely a multi function appliance. Thank you for introducing us to this oven.

Hi Brandi thank you for this detailed review. I’m so excited about Air Frying. I recently purchased your book from Bam Book store in Destin Florida. I didn’t even have to search they had it sitting face view.
Question so I love making your keto cornbread in my 9x9 glazed stone will this fit in this air fryer. Oh my a whole chicken in the air fryer sounds amazing. I love following you on my keto journey. Happy Holiday.
staysnatched says
You can fit up to a 9x13 pan! I will add this to the review because it's an excellent question.
Mary says
The toast button, and being able to cook a 5 lb chicken interest me.
Debbie Beres says
I love the versatility .I personally have a rotisserie I can eliminate plus get rid of my toaster. All these appliances in one!!! So simple and convienent.
Robin Collier says
I primarily air fry and bake. I prefer not to use my large oven because of the heat and ackwardness.. Does this oven emit a lot of heat? Right now I am using older separate air fryer and counter top oven. I would love a counter top small appliance that does both. I am an old southern cook ?? and enjoy your southern recipes. Thank you.
staysnatched says
It does get very hot!
Belinda says
Love that it can do so many things including the ability to dehydrate food! So many options all in one!

Ruth Weeks says
I love it! It’s large enough so I can cook enough at one time to feed my whole family at the same time and not have to cook in batches! And easy clean up! So many settings.
Jahari Jacobs says
Omg, this air fryer oven looks to be a game changer!! Have you tried making the rotisserie chicken yet?? I'm anxious to see those results as I eat Costco chicken often.
staysnatched says
I'm testing that out this weekend!
Peggy says
I love the multi-task features. I have very little counter space and this one do it all appliance is exactly what I need!!
Adairea says
Which one do you prefer for quick everyday use? I have a regular air fryer and I always stop it and open it to check on my food. So this one with the open glass door would be great since I like to peak at my food lol
staysnatched says
I think the oven is great for everyday use because I have been using my microwave less and using the oven to reheat food. And I'm with you on the glass door!
Eric Rogalsky says
I love the fact that you can make jerky in it and a rotisserie chicken! It seems so much more practical then a regular air fryer!
Jackie Greek says
Wow I wish i would have done more checking when I bought my Oyster, which is almost the same layout but the knobs are on the top, I do not have all this air on my air fyer!!! let alone it dont lite up that you can see your food cooking, though I do have to admit since i did get mine last Feb I have lost 10 lbs by air fying and not frying foods in oil and the stove!!
Suzy says
I love that it can do so many things:) Definitely an all in one:)
Jennifer Watson says
I love ALL of the features. I really hope I win!
Rochelle S. Cabram says
This air fryer oven looks fabulous. I wish that I had one.
Susan Feinman says
I NEED this in my life - not fond of the air fryer I have now. I LOVE the fact you can watch/view the food as it’s being cooked, and even has a light like my kitchen stove/oven does! Also love that this unit is a multitasker and has so many options
Danni says
I currently own a 3.4 qt Air Fryer. I’m pleased with it. However, I am drawn to the capacity of this oven - and the multiple shelves.
Diana says
Sounds like a wonderful all-in-one machine. I will be looking at getting these for Christmas gifts for my kids. Thank you for sharing.
Lee Ann Guynn says
Wow! This machine does so much more that realized! The ferment feature for proofing bread is a game changer for sure. Ans I love that you can dehydrate your own snacks! I absolutely love my basket style Cosori but I often have to cook in batches when I feed the family . Wings! Wings are our favorite and I can see my self being able to cook enough for everyone in one batch. Question, did your chicken get as crispy as it does it the basket style? Also , were cooking times the same or similar? Thanks for the review!
staysnatched says
Hi LeeAnna! I tried bone-in chicken thighs, which always take quite a bit of time, because I like them really crispy. I do feel like it took an extra 2-3 minutes vs my Cosori air fryer.
Brandi says
I love that it’s not only both a toaster oven and air fryer, but that it’s also large enough to actually bake casserole! I cook for one, so I hate to use my oven unless I just have too. My toaster oven is my most used appliance. I love my air fryer, but don’t use it all that often bc I have to drag it out. The thought of one appliance that can do almost everything I need AND has good reviews makes me giddy!
Brandi says
*a casserole. ...have *to. I shouldn’t comment from my phone without my glasses ?
Mary says
Wow I believe I would have bought this when I bought my air fryer because then I could eliminate my toaster oven and the new air fryer because this is all in one appliance and much more room on counter top. Plus everything I have read it gets very good ratings.
Luis says
I love the variety of things you can do like multi-tasking lol. The size is a plus and rotisserie option is great,i would definitely love to have one in my kitchen.Thanks for the review.
cindy tidrick says
A square oven sounds like a great improvement! And all those pre-sets, simplicity.
Phil keilberg says
Love the size and that it's an all in one appliance
Philip Keilberg says
Love the size and that it's an all in one appliance
Philip Keilberg says
Love the size and that it's an all in one appliance. I have a different model but rather small, am considering getting 1 of these to use when need larger amounts and for the other uses.
Jan Swarthout says
For a retired couple this is a great alternative to using the stove. Parchment paper makes for an easy clean.
Carol oh says
I love the added features over the AF I currently own. It’s on my list for Santa!
Judy says
Wow. I could get rid of my oven if I had this.
David Brent says
how warm(hot) does the area around the Cosori Air Fryer get when in use? Can, or should this unit be built in?
staysnatched says
I placed it on a kitchen table to use it and the area around it has been fine.
James Ellis says
I think I need this, in my kitchen but have a space limit so I use a cart for my air fryer, how much does this unit weigh? I also like my air fryer that it doesn't heat up my small kitchen, This one puts out a lot of heat in comparison?
staysnatched says
It weighs about 25 pounds. I will add this to the review because it’s a common question and good information.
Kay says
OMG BRANDI, I have got to have one of these. I have been looking at them for a while , but I believe this one
Has all the features I love. I’m 76 years old and just my husband and I ,but right now my daughter and granddaughter is living with us. So this would be perfect with the size and function’s it has on it
My granddaughter wanted garlic toast one slice I had to light the big oven . Love your recipe’s
I get and have used them I’m my air fryer
I also love the looks of this one matches my appliances
Dawn says
The easy cleaning is a huge factor for me and the size. My daughter is wanting to start air frying and I think this one would be an excellent one because of all the features for a busy working mom.
Courtney McCray says
Thanks for the information! I’ve been considering upgrading my current air fryer because I need one that’s a little larger for my family. The current one is small and I find myself there longer. I first bought one after I subscribed to your blog, because I wanted to try your air fryer chicken wings Your jalapeño popper chicken recipe was so good, I had to try some of the other recipes. Thanks so much...hopefully Santa (aka my boyfriend) will buy one for me soon! I enjoy reading your blog. Thanks again
lauren murray says
I just love this one. So many possibilities. I have an older ir fryer and use it so much that I think it is on it's last leg. Would love to win this one. All the features are great. I rarely use my oven anymore and am trying to be more healthy because I have a heart condition and want to be around my family. Please I would love to win this.Hope whoever WINS loves it as much as I do.
Dawn Thiesen says
Thank you for your review of this air fryer oven. I have been wanting one for my daughter, who is a widow with 5 kids. Three of them are teenagers, and they all have such hurried schedules. I think they could really benefit from this as it would provide them with the crispy fried foods they like, but would be much healthier and even safer for them than deep frying, not to mention the money saved by cooking at home. Sounds like the perfect solution.
Kristin Oestreich says
I like that it can take the place of a toaster oven, dehydrator, & air fryer! I also like that it can cook larger quantities and sized items.
Anonymous says
Love the fact it is all in one and is so versatile
Shayla J says
This sounds absolutely AMAZING! I love that it has so many features all set into one machine. I currently have a small air fryer for a family of 5 and find myself having to cook in batches. This would allow me to cook all of the food at once and not leaving others waiting for the next batch. The features are nice but so is the design and look, the stainless steel design makes it look really modern and would fit any kitchen decor if left on the counter. I absolutely love everything about it and would love to have this replace my current air fryer. Thank you for keeping your snatched family up to date on products and bomb recipes?
