Is the Cosori Iconic Smart Air Fryer worth it?
Yes — if you want a good-looking air fryer that cooks evenly.
RTINGS found frozen food comes out evenly crisp, wings tender and mostly crisp, and the temperature steady enough for lean meats too. It cooks fast once hot and is very compact for its size. It preheats slowly and costs more than plastic air fryers of the same size.
Good to know
- It's slow to preheat.
- Big batches of wings are tricky to spread out in one layer.
- Even, crisp results in testing
- Stainless-steel body
- Compact for a 6.5-quart

How we reached this verdict
RTINGS found it makes mostly crispy, evenly cooked food with tender wings, thanks to a wide range of settings and a steady temperature. It cooks impressively fast once preheated and is very compact; the slow preheat is the main catch.
We compared independent expert reviews with the manufacturer's specifications, then checked it's sold at a major retailer where you live. We don't test products ourselves.
