Filter lid pops off

Used a few times, the top that keeps filter in place pops off every time you open the lid.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Not worth it

I bought this 6 months ago and only use it a few times a month. Changed oil out 3 different time. On the third time I changed out oil it would not heat up. Went through trouble shooting and still nothing. Power light comes on and some heat come from the process but will not heat up to temp. Oil remains at luke warm temp.

Crap

The oil always seems to over heat no matter what temp you have it at. Lid is cheap and basket up and down are poorly made.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Very pleased with product
on July 9, 2026

Gender:Male
Fantastic product for me, have had it a while, came here now as I misplaced my manual, was cleaning the oil retainer, seem to have a bit of trouble getting it to snap back in (not sure if a snap is required, just like snaps, unless of course the 'snap' means I broke something, guess I better find the manual, and here I am) but great cooking tool, for me anyway
I would recommend this to a friend!
