Just so you know this: Consumer Reports does not classify the toaster oven kind of air fryer as a true air fryer. The way the air moves around is different, and that effects both the cooking time and texture of the food. Mine is a Black & Decker that holds a 9 x 13 pan. It has knobs so it can be labeled as soon as I get around to it. So far, I am winging it and it is working fine.
My husband also bought a Cosori, the kind with the basket that is single purpose. So far, I can't use it because you have to use a third party app to connect it to WIFI and I just can't get the app to work properly on any device, not my phone, not Alexa. This unit cannot be used by a blind person without usable vision unless it is connected to WIFI. It can't be labeled. It has those heat-sensitive buttons that you can't feel and that set off when you put your finger near them. I do not know whether this is the case for all their units. They make a whole bunch of air fryers, and their lineup and pricing seem to change often. There are single-purpose basket type air fryers that are accessible and work fine, but I'm having no luck with this one. If we fry things in both the fryers, the ones in the Cosori come out faster and more crisp, but I like the toaster oven one anyway. It makes beautiful toast, bakes an entire 9 x 13 casserole without heating the entire house, and does a decent though not stellar job of air frying. If it was up to me and we could only keep one, I would keep this one since I can use it and it does many things. -----Original Message----- From: Cookinginthedark <cookinginthedark-boun...@acbradio.org> On Behalf Of John Kolwick via Cookinginthedark Sent: Friday, November 6, 2020 6:31 AM To: Cookinginthedark@acbradio.org Cc: John Kolwick <john2...@suddenlink.net> Subject: [CnD] multi-purpose air fryer Hello, I am sure this question has been asked before, I would like recommendations for an accessible fryer that can perform a variety of cooking functions, possibly roasting and broiling? Would like a medium to large unit. Thank you for any assistance.
