Cosori CP158-AF Premium Air Fryer Review

Review of the Cosori CP158-AF Premium Air Fryer

The CP158-AF Premium Air Fryer is the top-of-the-line unit. This 5.8 Qt capacity Air Fryer is design for a family of 3 to 5 people. This fryer offers many options that are not found on standard units. Some of these features include 360° air circulation technology, 11 presets, preheat function, shake reminder and a 100 recipe cookbook. The Cosori Air Fryer customer support is phenomenal. I give them a 9.8 out of 10 for its unique features, outstanding functions, great customer support, and price.

Full-Featured Air Fryer

From the 360° Air Circulation Technology to the 100 recipe cookbook, you will be hard-pressed to find another unit with more features. The 360° Air Circulation Technology creates a hot mini cyclone in the cooking basket area. The air circulation flows through or around the food allowing it to evenly cook.

Check out this video on the Cosori CP158-AF Premium Air Fryer to learn more about how it works.

Presets Galore

The unit comes with 11 presets. It allows you to tap and go. Here are the 11 presets that come with the air fryer.

  1. Steak
  2. Chicken
  3. Seafood
  4. Shrimp
  5. Bacon
  6. Frozen Foods
  7. French Fries
  8. Vegetables
  9. Root Vegetables
  10. Bread
  11. Dessert

All of these preset cooking choices can also be modified to conform to your total choice, portion and have the new food is prepared. You will find this an easy way to cook your food to perfection. You can easily customize your preparation settings to make you to become a master air fryer chef.

Preheating Your Unit Gives You a Crispier Outside

By preheating your air fryer, you will improve your food texture. It only takes a few minutes longer but your food will cook crispier. Unlike most fryers, the Cosori CP158-AF Premium Air Fryer has a preheat setting. All you have to do is tap the preheat button, set your temperature and press the start button. This starts the air fryer in the preheat mode and keeps it in this mode when it reaches the ultimate temperature.

You Put Your Basket in-Take Your Basket out-and You Shake It All About

There are five preset settings that have shake reminders on them. They are:

  • Shrimp
  • Frozen Foods
  • French Fries
  • Vegetables
  • Root Vegetables

When these preset settings are halfway through their cooking cycle the cooker will beeps five times to remind you that you need to shake your food. By shaking these types of food halfway through the cooking process you will achieve better results.

A Truckload of Recipes

Most air fryer companies offer a recipe book with 10 to 20 recipes in it. The Cosori CP158-AF Premium Air Fryer offers you 100 recipes cookbook. These recipes are designed to be used specifically with this air fryer. So you will have the information you need to cook a steak or bake bread, make crips fat free or most anything you can imagine.

Support You Can Count on

I find the Cosori CP158-AF Premium Air Fryer support to be top-notch. In researching through the reviews, I found that each review was answered whether it was a five-star or lower. Whenever I have contacted them, through the phone or email they have answered all of my questions and solved all my problems in a timely manner. You cannot ask for better support than that.


All in all, the Cosori CP158-AF Premium Air Fryer is impressive when you consider the price you are paying. With features like 11 presets, 360° Air Circulation Technology, Preheat Function, Shake Reminder, and 100 Recipe Cookbook it’s a steal of a deal with the price being below $120.

  1. Just used my Cosori Model No. CP158-AF for the first time. It was great and my zucchini came out perfect. The only question I have is, the unit smells like plastic is burning. Is this normal for the first time use?

    Reply
    • No, this is not normal. Make sure that you have all of the packing mat’l removed. Check inside the unit with the basket out to make sure there is no packing plastic like tape etc. inside it. You can also check the vents to make sure there is no tape or other types of plastic stuck in them. Check all of your accessories for tape or other melted plastic on it. If you don’t find anything and it still smells like burning plastic, call Cosori Support (Phone No. is in the above review) and have them replace it.

      Please let us know what happens with your situation please.
