COSORI Indoor Grill Electric Smokeless Grill Indoor & Smart XL Air Fryer Combo, 8 Cooking Functions, 6QT, 100 Recipes,Dishwasher Safe, Compatible with Alexa & Google Assistant, Black, 6 Qt

I had a air fryer... (still havent gotten my replacement from the recall). I purchased this becsuse I've always wanted a grill and i saw some good reviews.It works well. The grill is meh.... But its basically an air fryer. A much more expensive air fryer. The only good thing a out it is the air filter which helps with the food smoke smells.The basket has no handle, so dumping the food out requres you to either pick it bit by bit or find a glove to hold the hot basket. I find that a downgrade.The 'grill' option is basically an air frying option with a grill line shape base so you would get some marks. But.... If u want good steak, just use a cast iron. This makes subpar steak..... Cast iron is WAY better.If this was the same price as the cosori air fryer.... I would still have a hard time deciding which i would rather have in my kitchen....but i'd probably lean towards the air fryer due to the convenience of a handle.

A friend shared benefits of using an indoor grill after they got rid of their big outdoor BBQ. I had as well and was looking for a better 'grilling' solution. My kitchen has very limited storage/counter space and I have been down-sizing and looking for multi-purpose items. looked at grill model they had purchased along with others all of which had more negative than positive reviews.Sadly, my CP137-AF was one of the units impacted by the recent Cosori air fryer recall . It is the smaller capacity air fryer and due to limited counter cabinet height (11" clearance ) it was the only unit that would fit, and we only have 2x people in our household. I learned how-to use the air fryer from Kathy on YouTube, and purchased the Cosori after reading many reviews and researching what would be best for our use. So over the past 18-months it became our #1 go-to appliance.Cosori offered replacement item options instead of the equivalent air fryer model for the recall, and while my unit was smaller, the larger capacity CF model showed the new Cosori Electric Smokeless Indoor Grill & Smart XL Air Fryer Combo! I was intrigued, and went researching. This unit came out about 1-year ago, and while on the more expensive end of the 'air fryer' models, this had so much more to offer my narrow criteria requirement of lower height, larger cooking capacity and an indoor grill! Everything I wanted in a single unit plus the baking bonus.My CF137 recall unit did not qualify as a replacement to the Smart-XL Air Fryer, however Amazon.com had the unit in stock and a $30 coupon, so since I was willing to spend $ to purchase just an indoor grill as an additional appliance, I hit the 'add-it-to-my cart'!Received it, and ran the 1st time cycle twice to burn off the new plastic odor, and used it the same day. I also paired to Alexa on my phone using the VeSync app. LOVE it !!!!The Smart XL grill fits my limited counter space (slightly wider but lower). Cooks faster and has higher temperatures available. Grilling is perfect, have had NY steaks and pork chops that are tender and tasty in minutes, and the ceramic grill sizzled just like the old BBQ. I really like that Cosori chose to use ceramic for the grill insert instead of a teflon coating (so much healthier, I have gotten rid of all Teflon coated pans). I do use a sheet of foil in the bottom of the pan which makes clean-up a snap, along with everything being easy to clean.Smokeless, fast clean-up and does not heat the kitchen! I have used the grill, air fryer and bake functions. My brownies baked faster and now I can have baking all through the hot summer months without turning on my gas oven!Two other friends had purchased their Cosori's on my recommendation and have now replaced their units with the new Smart-XL grill combo.Extremely happy with my purchase and whenever I do finally receive my replacement CF unit I will gift it to someone which has held of on purchasing an air fryer.

Easy to use, easy to clean, works well. I love everything about it and use it daily.

This thing rocks. I wanted an indoor grill to cook steaks on since it's too cold outside and this one appealed to me. However, it's much, much more than an indoor grill. We've only had it for 10 days but have already used it 5 times, not only does it rock at cooking steaks, it's an air fryer, broiler, dehydrator and I don't know what else yet. Love this thing though and so glad I bought it. Cooked Chicken Fried Steak in it this evening, so good and perfectly cooked.

The Cosori Indoor Grill & Air Fryer is built better than the Ninja equivalent. Ninja arrived DOA with cheaper aluminum components. The Cosori is built with heavier gage metal and worked out of the box.What makes this an indoor grill is:- about a 1cm thick grill plate that sits higher in the unit than a normal air fryer.- the heating coil is covered by a splash guard since the food sits higher.The controls they tried to make simpler, and maybe I just don’t understand yet.But the Consori Pro 5.8 qt Air Fryer has a WAY BETTER sensible user interface.I have both, and I am happy with both.This unit’s think plate makes the grilling of meat more like a grill.
