This review is from: Secura 4.2L/17-Cup 1700-Watt Stainless-Steel Triple-Basket Electric Deep Fryer This replaced a T-Fal deep fryer I'd had for many years, and even when it was brand new, the T-Fal couldn't compare to this amazing deep fryer. One third the time to finish twice as many french fries. This is by far the best small kitchen appliance I've ever purchased. And the price was very reasonable on Amazon, even better than e-Bay, especially knowing the product is brand new in original packaging. This was actually a birthday present for my husband since we share cooking duties, and the first time he used it the french fries were done before the steaks were off the grill. Before this deep fryer, he had to start the first batch while the coals were still getting hot. Now he figures the prep time differently. We both love this amazing deep fryer! 18 of 19 people found the following review helpful: Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?) This review is from: Secura 4.2L/17-Cup 1700-Watt Stainless-Steel Triple-Basket Electric Deep Fryer Had this deep fryer a little bit over 1 year. It is an amazing fryer!! on the first time we used it one thing that we immediately noticed was it is a very powerful appliance. oil bath heats up very very fast. When we fry, we do not want to leave it unattended. If you plug in the power and got distracted, it may cause some accident. This deep fryer has automatic shup down, so we do not worry about that it might burn dry. But still, it will waste energy in case you pulg in, leave the heat on and forgot it. This fryer is so fast, we do not have to wait for a long time waiting for the oil to boil, it saved us a lot of time.
The timer and temp. control are very easy to use, but if you want accurate control over time and oil temp there is a digital model too, hope you find this helpful.

This review is from: Secura 4.2L/17-Cup 1700-Watt Stainless-Steel Triple-Basket Electric Deep Fryer I really regret having to grade this fryer so low, because, overall, it works very well. Unfortunately, it has a dangerous design flaw. The frame, which holds the oil pan, etc. Is made of thin sheet steel. This steel is folded under at a right angle. Aside from corners where the feet of the fryer are located, the edge of the steel is completely exposed. This a really big deal since the sheet steel is so thin - I swear it is nearly as sharp as a kitchen knife.
Well, since you cook with oil in this appliance, you'll definitely be washing this exterior frame, most likely by hand. I did and guess what?I slashed two of my fingers fairly badly. So, be warned. This product, if not handled very carefully, can be quite dangerous. |
