I should also mention that I've toasted everything bagels in the Cosori TurboBlaze, and they come out way better than the 2-slice toaster I have, so the toaster has been retired to the entryway closet. One other item I forgot to note is that in order to remove the basket from the unit, there's a button at the top of the handle that needs to be pushed down to release the latch, which causes the unit to automatically pause cooking if mid-cycle. Once you put the basket back in the unit, the cycle resumes automatically, which is handy if you pull the basket out to check cooking progress. #A11Y #Accessibility #Blind #CosoriTurboBlaze6QT #AirFryers #Review

Just wanted to update you all on the experience with the Cosori TurboBlaze I just bought. First, the version I wound up getting turned out to be the non-smart version, so no Alexa integration, which makes it a bit harder to use. At least some of the buttons on the touchscreen are in predictable places, so I can at least power on the air fryer and start the cooking process. Those buttons are in the lower left and lower right corners of the control panel respectively. For the other buttons, I'll need to pick up some bump dots to make it easier to find the tempature and time adjustments plus find the different modes the air fryer has. For the record, the dark gray version is the non-smart version while the cream and light gray ones are the smart versions. Amazon had radio buttons on the same page for all three, but did not clearly label that the dark gray version is a non-smart variant. No wonder it was cheaper. As for how it functions, I've cooked Totino's pizza rolls, El Monterey chicken and cheese taquitos plus Tyson chicken nuggets in the unit and all came out perfect, although I did have to extend the cook time for the chicken nuggets by 3 minutes to get them to the level of crispiness I like in my chicken nuggets. I do like the friendly chime the unit makes when you plug it in, when you press the start/pause button, and the 3 chimes that play when cooking is done. It sounds so cheerful. For those wondering, the crisper tray won't fall out if you dump out things from the basket when done cooking, as those little sillicone bumpers/feet hold it in place inside the basket. It's extremely easy to clean too... #A11Y #Accessibility #Blind #AirFryers #CosoriTurboBlaze6QT #Review

Basically, I had to replace my existing air fryer, which doesn't have touchscreen controls let alone Alexa integration due to the latch that locks the basket into place with the drip tray/heat protective housing being broken. It was a safety risk, as if I wasn't careful pulling the basket out of the air fryer and lifted it too high, the drip tray would come off and send hot drippings flying all over the place, including on me. I figured it was best to replace it while I had the spare cash, and I could afford to do so. #A11Y #Accessibility #Blind #Cooking #AirFryers #SafetyConcerns

Can't wait until tomorrow, as my new air fryer arrives. Got this one as it's currently on sale, has very high ratings and also works with my Alexa devices, which is important for accessibility reasons since the controls are touchscreen based. Not bad for around $100 after taxes in my area. #A11Y #Accessibility #Blind #Cooking #AirFryers #WorksWithAlexa https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0C33CHG99?ref=ppx_yo2ov_dt_b_fed_asin_title&th=1
