Perfect size for my wife and I to fry. We've had one for 14 years and it still worked fine, we just wanted a new one.
I would recommend this to a friend!

I used this about four times and every time the lid fell off when opened to check the food. The last time it fell off while I was taking the basket out and while putting the basket back in the hot oil it splashed oil all over the cabinet top.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

I used this fryer about four times and every time I used it the lid fell off when opened. I got burned on my hand when I was checking chicken legs to see if it was done. I was lifting the chicken out and the lid fell off so I put the chicken back in the hot oil and it splashed out and burned my hand.

We bought this on sale on black friday to replace a broken fryer. I like the size and it's easy to clean but, the safety cord disconnects constantly so its really hard to keep the temp consistent.

If you have the need to regularly deep fat fry, an electric fryer is a must-have to contain the mess and maintain oil temperature. This fryer is small enough to keep out on the counter between uses. The adjustable temperature gauge is pretty reliable when operating correctly. The basket is big enough to hold two drumsticks, 2-3 chicken strips, or 1-2 portions of fries, so if you are cooking for multiple people or one teenager with a big appetite, you will be working in batches.
We had our first Cuisinart compact fryer for 2 years 9 months before it stopped getting up to temperature. While that's too bad, we definitely got our money's worth in that time. After researching other compact fryer options, I decided that this model was still probably the best option out there and purchased a second one to replace the broken one.
I would recommend this to a friend!
