Great for everything except for deep frying. Even with the temp on 400, this cooker is not fry ready until the food has submerged in the grease for 1-2mins with no action.

It's amazing for cooking lg amounts.

We love the size. Just what i needed. It's great to brown the meat, wipe out the extra oil then turn up the heat to bake or cook how you choose. Chili and sauces with meat, in one pot are a breeze. Ive taken care of the unit. But the heat can be very touchy if you don't have enough liquid, it will boil dry fast. I have some scars in mine already and I'm a disappointed how it looks. I still believe they are a good buy if you cook in large quantities.

I can only cook on the warm setting or it starts to boil, Thought it would be great for my Camp trailer.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

The temperature control will cycle on and off - this is normal. For example when left on the warm setting, the control will reach 212 degrees and drop down to 160 and then back up to 212. This process will continue throughout cooking. Let us know if we can help you further. Call 1-800-877-0441. Our Customer Service Team is available weekdays, 8-4 CT.

I purchased my Kettle three years ago. I use it probably around three times per month. It cooks evenly, quickly and is easy to empty and clean. Makes GREAT fried chicken, After three years of use I see that the control module is showing some wear and cracking around the part that is plugged directly into the pot. The electric plug itself is still in excellent shape, as is my kettle. I have recommended this item to several friends who have also purchased same.
I would recommend this to a friend!

This product is excellent. I have both the XL, and large one. I've used them for over 15 yrs now. I have been waiting for the XXXL version. maybe 20quarts. So, I don't have to fry several batches.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Does not get hot enough to fry.

Not good for frying. Even with temperature turned all the way to 400 will not heat past 300. Takes a minimum 40 minutes to get to that point.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.
