TurboBlaze Air Fryer
A basket-style air fryer with a PFAS-free ceramic (sol-gel) coating instead of Teflon. Better than a PTFE basket, but still an applied coating that food scrapes at 400F+ - the Caraway situation, in appliance form.
Plastic-free verdict: Minimal plastic contact
The basket and crisper plate use a ceramic sol-gel coating that Cosori states is PFAS-free and PTFE-free, over an aluminum base. No fluoropolymer in the food path, which is the point - but it is still a proprietary applied nonstick coating that food tumbles against in a concentrated, hot, high-contact basket. We rate it minimal-contact, exactly like ceramic nonstick cookware: meaningfully better than PTFE, not a bare surface, and the safety case rests on the manufacturer's own testing.

What it's made of
| Part | Material | Food contact |
|---|---|---|
| basket coating PFAS-free / PTFE-free ceramic sol-gel per Cosori | Ceramic Nonstick (sol-gel coating) | Yes |
| crisper plate coating same PFAS-free ceramic coating | Ceramic Nonstick (sol-gel coating) | Yes |
| basket / plate base aluminum substrate under the coating | Aluminum | No |
| housing | Plastic (other / unspecified) | No |
Included as the honest "ceramic basket" answer for people who want a normal basket-style air fryer without Teflon. Cosori's TurboBlaze uses a ceramic sol-gel coating it markets and labels as PFAS-free and PTFE-free, on both the basket and crisper plate. That genuinely avoids the fluoropolymer problem that disqualifies most air fryers. The caveat is the same one we give Caraway cookware: it is still a sprayed-on coating, not a bare surface, and a basket-style unit concentrates heat and scraping on that coating every use, so it will wear. If a ceramic coating is acceptable to you, this is a reasonable pick; if you want no coating at all, use a glass-bowl unit or a convection oven with a stainless tray instead.
Pros
- Ceramic coating is PFAS-free and PTFE-free per Cosori - no fluoropolymer
- Standard, high-capacity basket form factor; strong performance reputation
- Basket and plate dishwasher-safe
Cons
- Still a proprietary sol-gel coating in direct food contact, not bare
- Basket-style design concentrates scraping and heat on the coating
- Coating will wear over time; safety case rests on manufacturer testing
- Plastic housing (not in food path)
