Product Description
Okay, nobody is about to claim that fried food is good for your body, but it sure can be wonderful for your soul! Live a little; indulge those hankerings for onion rings, donuts, hush puppies or shrimp tempura. When you fry at home you can at least control not only the type of oil used, but also the length of time your food fries, and thereby make fried food at least not quite as bad for you! This large fryer has 12 cup capacity, a timer, and a dishwasher safe basket and lid.
Amazon.com Review
Fried chicken, shrimp tempura, jalapeņo poppers, homemade doughnuts--it's a snap to prepare those irresistible palate-pleasers for dinners and parties. When done right, deep frying adds very little oil to foods. This compact deep fryer holds 2.2 pounds of food and 2.2 liters (approximately 9 cups) of oil, more than most fryers its size. For excellent cooking control, the adjustable thermostat slides to any of five fixed positions illustrated with popular deep-fried foods--mushrooms, fish, doughnuts, poultry, and French fries--and any setting in-between. Temperatures range from 302 to 374 degrees Fahrenheit (150 to 190 degrees Celsius), and an electronic timer helps prevent overcooking. An external handle conveniently raises and lowers the wire basket, and the sealed lid locks for safety. Cord storage is found underneath. For added safety, the body of the fryer stays cool during cooking, and the entire unit takes up very little storage space. --Ann Bieri

Comment: I JUST WISH THE INSIDE SHAPE OF THE FRYER WAS MORE OBLONG. WHEN I FRY MY RED SNAPPER FISH, THE FISH TAIL IS NOT QUITE SUBMERGED...

Comment: Nice, easy to clean deep fryer. Nice design, basket holds plentiful amount and cooks food beautifully. My only complaint is the lid snaps open, sending hot steam our to potentially burn operator. Great price for very nice item.

Summary: Okay for frying 2005-10-12
Comment: I have owned two of these units in the past 6 months. The first was purchased and used for around 3 months, cooking twice a week on average. It was never mistreated, and was always cleaned by hand. It simply stopped working one day, and I assumed I had gotten it wet in the wrong spot during a cleaning session. For $40, I was pleased with the food it produced and bought a new one.
The second unit worked for about 6 weeks, and then one day while it was cooking, it started glowing brightly from underneath -- the heating element is controlled by a sliding mechanism and it had quite literally caught on fire at the point of contact. Afterwards, it behaved exactly as the first had when it stopped working, so I have to suspect that may be what happened to the first. From an electrical standpoint, the construction and exposed contacts on the bottom of this unit are not only ridiculously fragile, but potentially dangerous if they should overheat out of site and your cooking area has any flammable materials nearby. That cheap $40 fryer could cost you your home and everything in it.
My next fryer will have an immersion heating element, I simply don't trust having an electric heating element going to 375+ degrees on the bottom of the unit anymore.

Summary: GREAT FRYER BUT COULD BE IMPROVED 2005-09-06
Comment: This is a really nice fryer with a large capacity to cook a lot of food at once. It looks good and the basket is nice. The only two drawsbacks are 1.) that the basket does NOT drop low enough into the oil to deep-fry some products as much as we would like and 2.) that you can only remove the lid and basket for cleaning. This makes cleaning out the oil a bit tedious.
However..with that being said~ this is a much better fryer than ones like FryDaddy,etc. and I expect that it will work for a long period of time.

Summary: Great product! 2005-08-31
Comment: This fryer cooks a lot faster than my old one. It is easy to clean and cool to the touch. The timer feature really helps a lot. The basket is well designed - the oil drains away from the food quickly. I recommend it to everyone!
