The Cosori Pro LE 5-Qt is a single-basket fryer that Cosori’s manual rates up to 450°F, at a low 1,500W. This page is based on manufacturer-published specifications and manuals plus aggregated owner reviews; we did not test the products ourselves.

Our verdict

For one or two people who want a light, hot-running basket fryer, the Pro LE fits. If you want a lower profile for under-cabinet use, the Ninja AF141 is 10.55 in tall.
