Our Verdict

COSORI TurboBlaze

Instant Pot Duo Crisp 6.5QT

The COSORI TurboBlaze is a better air fryer than the Instant Pot Duo Crisp 6.5QT. However, the Instant Pot doubles as a multi-cooker, and while we haven't tested these functions, some may also prefer it for this reason. The COSORI makes better-quality air-fried food, leaving more of each batch crispy and golden brown. While it takes longer to preheat, it also cooks faster overall. The COSORI's biggest advantage over the Instant Pot is its versatility. Both models have impressive temperature ranges and quite a few preset cooking modes, but the Instant Pot has a very narrow range of fan speeds, which limits what you can use it for. In contrast, the COSORI has a very wide range of fan speeds, making it an ideal choice for dehydrating, proofing dough, baking, and making extra crispy food.
