Cosori Pro Gen Smart vs Pro Gen 2: Smart Air Fryer Upgrade Worth It?
In-Depth Review
Cosori’s 5.8-quart air fryers are among the best-selling on Amazon, and the Pro Gen Smart and Pro Gen 2 represent two takes on the same excellent platform. One adds WiFi connectivity and app control, the other focuses on refined hardware performance. Both cook beautifully, but the question is whether smart features are worth paying extra for an air fryer.
This product is ideal for anyone looking for quality and value.
What We Like
- Cosori Pro Gen Smart: The Smart model connects to your phone via the VeSync app, letting you start, stop, adjust temperatu
- Cosori Pro Gen 2: The Gen 2 skips the WiFi and instead focuses on what matters most, consistent, reliable cooking. Co
What Could Be Better
- The smart features require WiFi and an app, adding complexity to a simple appliance
- Smart version costs noticeably more for features most people rarely use after setup
- Both models share the same cooking capacity so the upgrade is purely about connectivity
Final Verdict
The Pro Gen Smart is for tech enthusiasts who love app control and smart home integration. The Pro Gen 2 is for people who want the best possible cooking experience without extra complexity. If you will actually use the WiFi features, the Smart model is a nice upgrade. If you just want a rock-solid air fryer that cooks perfectly every time, the Gen 2 is the smarter buy.
