Cosori Iconic review: The best-looking air fryer your countertop deserves
Armed with a sleek metallic finish, the Cosori Iconic delivers a top-tier cooking experience and intuitive app controls. It's not cheap, but it's but it delivers plenty.
The Cosori Iconic air fryer stands out from its plastic counterparts with a premium stainless steel appearance. Priced at $249, it is the most expensive model in the Cosori lineup but offers a 5-year warranty that extends beyond the usual 1-year coverage. The 6.5-quart machine features a PFAS-free ceramic nonstick basket, a tempered glass control panel with touch controls, and Wi-Fi connectivity for remote monitoring.
Underneath the shiny exterior, the Iconic shares many components with Cosori’s TurboBlaze model, including the same 5-speed DC motor and six cooking modes. However, the body of the Iconic is constructed from 96% metal, resulting in a sleek and visually appealing design that is rare among air fryers. The appliance remains cool to the touch during operation, with the majority of heat concentrated in the rear exhaust vent and top surface near the heating element.
The control panel is tempered glass with illuminated touch controls, displaying the cooking mode and fan speed in real-time. A dedicated Shake button alerts users when food needs to be stirred, and the companion app allows for voice control through Alexa and Google Assistant. While the Iconic cooks quickly and evenly, with a wide temperature range from 90 to 450 degrees Fahrenheit, it lacks a preheat function.
Users should be mindful of the appliance's need for a spacious countertop area and the fact that fingerprints are easily visible on the stainless steel surface.
