I had been shopping for an air fryer / toaster oven combo device for several months, but found it tough to make a decision, since there were so many models available of all shapes and sizes, from a bewildering array of companies. I was fairly certain I was looking for a combo model air fryer, since my old (non air frying) toaster oven was clearly on its way out, and I wanted a device that could do both types of cooking, since I used my old toaster oven a lot (I don't usually cook enough to warrant heating up my big, full-size oven). This Cosori 12-in-1 model had been recommended as a lower cost alternative to the highly rated Breville model... similar features, maybe not as highly reviewed, but literally half the price. About 3 months ago, I randomly logged onto Amazon, and happened to click on this product, as it was shown as a "recently viewed item", and saw that for a period of just a couple days, there was both a manufacturer and a vendor coupon available simultaneously, which made this product available for a particularly low price, even cheaper than some clearly inferior lower-end models... so I finally pulled the trigger.
Everything arrived on time, and in good working order. I set it up and tested it, and "bake", "toast", and "air fry" all seemed to work. I don't know much about the other 9 functions, and don't anticipate using them much, so limited my initial testing to those 3. I was initially skeptical about getting a model with digital controls, because I appreciated the simplicity of the manual controls on my previous toaster ovens... but these controls were very straightforward and intuitive... no need to consult the manual or online resources at all.
So, after I first set it up, I didn't actually use it for a few days. The reason being, before I started cooking in it, I first ordered a large silicone mat to place on the counter below it. I did this because every toaster oven I've previously owned always wound up with crumbs and gunk underneath, periodically requiring an extra hard round of counter cleansing. I figured placing this mat underneath should make that much easier. I then wrapped the removable floor panel of the Cosori oven in aluminum foil, which should also make that much easier to clean. I also ordered another, smaller, silicone mat, and placed that on top of the foil-covered floor of the oven. I made sure the mat is heat resistant to above the max temp of the oven, of course.
In the 3 months I've been using it, I haven't had to replace the foil covering the floor of the oven so far, and I simply rinse off the silicone mat that sits inside the oven every week or so. Since it's flexible, it's very easy to do. Some reviews here mention that it's very difficult to clean the rest of the inside of the oven. I haven't encountered that myself, but I simply might not be making the kinds of things that make such cleaning necessary. So far I've sprayed and wiped off the inside of the front glass door maybe once a month, and the inside walls have not required any cleaning thus far.
As for the functionality, I've found that it does everything my old toaster oven did, plus (obviously) more. Some professional reviewers like Consumer Reports or Good Housekeeping or CNET test a bunch of models with the exact same foods, and compare results. One of the things they do is fill the oven up pretty heavily, then test for things like uniformity of cooking. Where they might, for example, toast 9 slices of bread simultaneously (since a lot of these devices advertise that capacity), and see how evenly they toast... often finding that the ones in the corner didn't cook as evenly, etc. Well, I'll tell you right now, I'm a single guy, and rarely need 9 slices of toast... but when I try to toast 2 slices, centered in the middle of the oven, they come out perfectly. Same goes for making a frozen pizza. Or air frying 6 chicken wings, which I do often. Or making a standard size tray of brownies, which I've done once. Or heating up a couple hot dogs (I prefer heating them in a toaster oven as opposed to boiling or microwaving). I haven't tried stuff like baking a whole cake, or making a whole rotisserie chicken (even though it came with the accessories to do so), since, again, as a single guy, there's not much reason for me to do either, and the price of a store-bought cake or rotisserie chicken is low enough that I'm not really going to bother.
Also, since this is the first air fryer I've ever owned, one of the things I wanted to check is that there was really a difference between baking and air frying. Obviously I can see and hear the fan turn on when in air fry mode, which is the major differentiator (though unlike what some have said, I find the fan very quiet... I can only hear it if I'm right next to the unit, not even from the other side of the kitchen). So, I tried bake vs air fry when making wings (since I make them often), and I can say that there is absolutely a difference, and they're noticeably crisper when air frying. Some have said that toaster oven / air fryer combo models don't make food as crisp as typical cylindrical air fryers that have a frying basket with a handle. Well, I can't comment on that, since I've never owned one of those. Also, I know that french fry crispness is a major factor for some people, and understandably so. However, I haven't tried making fries from scratch, so I also can't comment there. But, I've found this device to do a very good job both with bagged frozen fries, as well as with reheating fries from a restaurant. I just spray some cooking spray on them... I don't actually add any oil beyond that.
Anyway, I hope this review was informative, while also understanding that it will probably be more useful to other single people like me who are not cooking very large quantities at once. One more thing I found as well... a couple reviews here mentioned that once you initiate a cycle, it starts preheating, then beeps once it's preheated, then you have to go back and press the start button again to start the actual cook cycle. I'm not sure why people think this is strange. After all, the whole purpose of preheating is to get the oven to the proper temperature before putting in the food... so of course you have to come back and put the food in, and then press the start button again to start the cook cycle. That being said however, I don't fancy myself some kind of professional chef, and I don't want to bother waiting for it to preheat and then walk back and put the food in. Ok, sure, on the very rare occasions I'm making something in my huge, full-size kitchen oven, I'll do it. But when I'm just heating up something small, in a smaller appliance like this Cosori 12-in-1 oven, I just throw it in, add somewhere between 3 or 4 minutes to the cook time to make up for the lack of preheating, then skip the preheating function altogether... which can be done very easily, by simply hitting the start button a second time.

Love it!
I have a very small kitchen and when the range died, I decided to try cooking with my induction plate and a toaster oven. I love to cook but I live alone so most of my cooking is small quantities. I enjoy baking bread and other toaster ovens just don’t do it. So I consulted my ConsumerReport website and this was their first choice that was in the moderate price range. Also, the higher priced ovens were not tall enough for a loaf of bread. As you can see this one does just fine. Recipe is:3-1/2c flour, water, salt and yeast. I did start it Japanese style by mixing roughly 1/2 cup flour with 1 cup water then cooking till it is the consistency of thick gravy. Let that cool then add the rest of the flour,1-1/2 tsp salt, 1-1/2 yeast and and 1c water water. Mix well, knead until elastic feeling then let it rise. Then shape the dough in a cyclinder shape, put it in your baking pan. Let it rise again till doubleI. The greased pan (metal pan is ok too but would increase temp for baking to 375 degrees. Raise bread in THIS OVENset at 90 degrees till doubled. I cooked this in a Pyrex dish at 350. In 45 minutes it was at 202 degrees. and done. I also brushed it with an egg wash mixed with a little water before baking. Looks great! Cost is less than $1 per loaf. That technique of making a gravy with the water and flour gelatinizes flour so it holds moisture very well.this helps my loaf stay fresh for 5or 6 days. I also make my own yogurt for about $2/quart. I put about a quart of milk in a pan, cover an put it on the induction burner at 175 degrees. Let it go until it automatically turns turns off. Let it cool to baby bottle temp and ferment it at 90degrees until desired thickness…overnight or longer.This oven is great for broiling steak, baking my favorite Lazy Daisy single layer cake, baking frozen meals.and frozen snacks, frozen veggies, roasting corn, air frying. I haven’t tried the rotisserie yet. I never met a home- indoor rotisserie that I like. Those chickens at the grocery are good enough for me. Cleans easily for the way I use it.The oven top of the gets quite hot so I bought a thick wool felt pad on Amazonsold for pressing garments. It is just about the right size and works very nicely.Honestly,I haven’t been so pleased with a purchase in a long time and I had never even heard of this brand. And the hole where the range used to be now has a stack of storage baskets and my son-in-law made a shelf to cover the space in the counter left by the range thereby doubling my counter space. WIN:WIN

La mejor compra que he hecho! =)

Pedí el Cosori y es de los más amplios y completos que encontré luego de una larga búsqueda en Amazon e internet en general. No es tan complicado de usar y viene muy completo con bastantes accesorios: una charola, una rejilla, el rostizador y la canasta para freír con aire. Eso sí es MUY grande y hay que considerar el espacio que se tiene.
Hasta el momento he gratinado, deshidratado fresas, he horneado galletas, brownie, pan de elote, lasgna y rostizado costillas y un pollo, hicimos papitas fritas y totopos de tortilla con el air fry y todo EXCELENTE. Yo compré unos Over linners para proteger el hornito y son una maravilla ya que no se les pega nada y se lavan muy facil y el horno se ensucia casi nada. Ví comentarios que decían que era muy difícil limpiar el horno pero para mí ha sido muy sencillo y práctico. También pueden usar papel encerado y funciona perfectamente.
Vi comentarios sobre otros hornos que no prenden la luz, este si tiene esa opción de prender y apagar cuando se necesite.
Ví otras en donde dicen que el air fry no es potente en este tipo de hornos, a mí me ha funcionado bien, eso sí hay que ponerles aceite suficiente a los alimentos, la ventaja que vas a tener es que el aceite no está requemado y será considerablemente menor que si lo frieras en una cacerola o freidora.
Tiene la función de precalentar cuando inicias casi cualquier ciclo (hornear, deshidratar, etc), lo que sirve perfecto para preparar lo que vayas a acomodar para cocinar en las charolas y cuando te avise que terminó, entonces ya hay que meter la charola y darle iniciar nuevamente. Cuando saquen la charola, cierren el horno para que no pierda calor y así saltarse el paso de precalentar al meter la siguiente tanda de galletas u otra cosa.
Amo este hornito y lo uso todos los días, siempre probando cosas nuevas que hacer con él, estoy fascinada. Lo recomiendo al 100.

Perfect for all those small warm ups and roasting.

One feature that was not included is an interior light. It only lights up just before the timed cycle is going to finish..
It has been easy to keep clean so far. I have used a silicone liner on the bottom and use tinfoil on the racks to keep them clean. Teflon coated racks would have been easier to keep clean, especially for air frying.
The air frier works like a charm. I have not used the baking feature, but have used the roasting one to prepare chicken pieces.
This three in one unit is great for all baking and roasting as well as keeping food warm. The rotisserie part looks sort of complicated and I think will make it hard to clean after, so I am not anxious to use it yet.
Also, the outside does get very hot, so it needs to be in a well ventilated space. I have had to move it out on the kitchen counter top in order to keep the heat from the top of the cupboard. It would be better if it was located in an open area as well to accommodate the size, it is quite large.
I tried the toaster function, but found that the bread dried out too much, even on the high setting. Also, it toasted on one side only, not very functional. Would be great a for grilled cheese maybe.
It took some time to get to know the settings. Digital would be much easier as I have seen some that are.
Oh well, it will serve this household for whatever is needed for the time being.
