Frequently Asked Questions

Is COSORI or Ninja better?

Ninja has more high-end features (Max Crisp 450ยฐF, dual zones). COSORI has better value and a bigger basket at the same price. For most people, COSORI wins on value.

Do I need the smart model?

Only if you'll use the app. Most people set a timer on the machine and never touch the app. Save $30.

Are COSORI baskets dishwasher-safe?

Yes, all models. Confirmed in our testing โ€” the nonstick holds up well.
