My husband and I love corn meal dusted fried okra like our grandmother/mommas used to make. Using this little guy is WAY better than trying to do that on a skillet. It is SO easy to use and clean up. Highly recommend, this is the perfect size little fryer with a perfect price tag too!
I’ve had this compact fryer for about a month and it has been great. Before I purchased it I did read the reviews and so far can only understand one of the complaints. A few folks complained about the cover coming off during the cooking process when you open and close the cover. This did happen a couple of times but I figured out that you need to do a quick open and a quick close because the cover only detaches when it is at a 45 degree angle, so if you close the cover slowly you tend to pull off the cover when it hits that 45 degree angle. I find it heats up pretty quickly, holds the heat nicely and cooks evenly. I just did the complete cleaning of the fryer and it cleaned up like brand new. I use this compact fryer when cooking for my wife and I and fire up my larger unit when we have guests over.
Let's you deep fry goodies on the fly! Get the same results as a traditional deep fryer with a third of the space and preparation. Easy to clean and doesn't leave a mess.
Neatest little deep fryer. Fries with small amount of oil and does not splatter all over the counter when the lid is open. Easy to use and easy to clean. Highly recommend.
Can not use did not come with the power cord missing parts
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Small and effecient deep fryer. Like that the used oil can be easily poured out without making a mess. It reheats quickly after removing fried foods and is ready to use again quickly.
