I really thought this would be like any other electronic device. I was pleasantly surprised. The time it takes it to heat up is compensated by the time it takes to cook. Once you get in a routine .. it’s like Magic. Worth every penny.

Great product, this deep fryer is an awesome size. I actually cooked 3 dozen of wings at the same time, witch saved me a ton of time. I love that you can easily take it outside for use at my grilling area. It's cleans up with little effort. Also great value.

Great Fryer, it's ease of use makes this a great purchase. It maintains a constant temperature with the adjustable knob as well as you can set the timer for different choices of food items. The basket is deep enough for to fry a batch of fries for a family of 3 or fish for a family. It's well made and solid in construction. The filter is really not needed because this is a fryer and whatever you are cooking is going to smell anyway but it's a good attempt. Overall it's a good purchase going to buy another one for my fish fry fridays.

This is a great deep fryer. Basket size is large, and the parts are easy to clean. The only thing I have found difficult about this deep fryer is that the timer control plastic is cheap, as after regular use the knob has slowly broken apart. I was able to fix this by super gluing the knob back together--but the plastic should be of better quality.

We don't fry food much. We have a big family so we need a big deep fryer when we have fried food. It is big but easy to assemble and clean. Great Buy!

It was bigger than I expected, but was extremely happy it was. Heat quickly and assembly was super easy and the manual was straight forward. I was able to use it fry some chicken and it came out perfect. Uses a lot of cooking oil but gives result. This is de a definite yes if you are thinking about purchasing this item

I've used it a few times with no issues. No assembly required, It's lightweight, easy to clean, and the basket is a nice size for several pieces of chicken, hand cut french fries, etc. I would recommend!
The only drawback is I am not able to sort out how to heat the oil without setting a timer but that's a minor inconvenience as the timer can be re-set to the proper cooking time once oil comes to temperature.

Big Basket Deep Fryer

Our current deep fryer is on its last legs. We used it just about every week since we had it. So i decided it was time to buy a new one. I looked and looked. There are so many kinds out there. I get overwhelmed with kitchen products. We have a family of 3 here and needed something with a big basket. I found this one. When you need to make a batch of French fries for 3 this is the one you get. Its simple to change oil and clean. The price was amazing.

I would recommend this product !!!! it was easy to assemble, use and clean. I was bigger than I expected but that was a bonus. My primary use for this product was frying food. I fried the food evenly and well. The timer attached to the product was also a major plus.
Satisfied customer !!!!!

This works as expected, It is easy to use. It is decent looking for the kitchen. I like that it is easy to clean because of the removable pan. The only thing I don’t like is having to use the timer because that is how it turn on or off. I wish it had an on and off button and timer just be an additional feature

Very nice unit. I have a turkey fryer and needed something a little more practical for family of 4 meals and this is perfect. Fits on the counter and leaves space for other items, heats up quickly and is easy to clean. I thing is that i wish the cord was a little longer but still a good unit
