Cosori, one of the most popular air fryer brands in the UK, has issued a major product recall for several of its air fryer models due to fire and burn hazards. If you own a Cosori air fryer, here’s everything you need to know about the UK recall—including how to check if your unit is affected, what to do next, and how to get a free replacement or refund.
Why Were Cosori Air Fryers Recalled in the UK?
The recall was initiated after hundreds of reports globally regarding overheating and potential fire risks. According to Cosori and UK safety regulators, the issue stems from faulty wire connections inside certain air fryer models, which may cause the units to overheat and pose a fire hazard during use.
