I would not recommend placing it on your stove. The outside of the air fryer does not get hot so there is no need to set it on anything other than your regular countertop. Does the outside get hot? Do I need to set it on a heat resistant mat or on the stovetop? Having to pull it out to plug it in ensures I’m always making sure it has the space it needs to safely operate. When not in use, the air fryer is pushed to the back of the counter. There is an outlet on the wall behind where it sits. Having it out and on your counter will increase the chances of you using it more… and finding creative ways to use it. It does have warm air that comes out the back so you would definitely not want it pushed up against a wall. When it’s in operation, you’ll need to make sure you leave space around it. If you have room, I always suggest finding a permanent spot on your kitchen counter for your air fryer.
There are lots of little reasons that make it better than the Power AirFryer brand. In the short time I’ve used the Cosori air fryer I have to say that I absolutely love it. It checked all the boxes large cooking capacity, 4.5 star Amazon rating, and a 1-year warranty that gets extended to two years if you register your air fryer within 10 days of purchase. It only had a 60-day warranty so I went searching for a well-rated air fryer with a longer warranty. It’s the “As Seen On TV” one and I used it pretty much daily until it died after 10 months. I’d want this size even if I was only cooking for myself because it expands the amount/kinds of food you can make. My current air fryer has a 5.8 quart capacity and works great when cooking for my family of 4. In my opinion, when it comes to air fryers, bigger is better. Steaks, chops, chicken, fish, shrimp, baked potatoes, roasted veggies, garlic bread, tater tots, cheese sticks, chicken, eggs, banana bread… the possibilities really are only limited by your creativity and willingness to try new things. Pretty much anything you can make in an oven you can make in an air fryer. And, yes, air fryers are basically small countertop convection ovens.
The food sits in a colander-like basket that allows grease to drip off and be collected in a pan below.Īs the name implies, with air fryers, you to cook with hot air and considerably less oil than traditional fryers… yet you get similar crispy results. What is an air fryer? Isn’t it basically a small convection oven?Īir fryers are kitchen appliances designed to cook food by circulating hot air all around it. I often get questions about air fryers and my experiences… so I thought I’d combine them all in one place as a resource for those that want to know more. Some have called me an air frying expert… but I prefer the term air frying enthusiast because I’m still learning. It’s changed how… and what I cook.Īs I’ve become more familiar with air fryers I’ve shared my experiences with friends and family on my Facebook page… and on this blog’s Facebook page. Last year I got a gift for Christmas that I didn’t ask for.
