VictoriaKan says "The Cuisinart Mini Deep Fryer is perfect for fries!" about Cuisenart Mini Deep Fryer

VictoriaKan — Mon, 09 Nov 2009 21:24:21 GMT

The Cuisinart Mini Deep Fryer is perfect for fries, egg rolls, and other small items. It has produced very fresh-tasking food every time! My husband and I have really enjoyed how crispy the food is, and even our guests have remarked that our fries taste just like fast food fries (in a good way!).

Cleaning up is also very easy, although I do wish that the compartment the oil sits in could pop out for more convenient washing. I generally pour the used oil out and use a paper towel to clean the inside of the unit.

I have only two real complaints about this product, and these are the reasons I have not rated it 5 stars. Firstly, the unit uses a great deal of oil. I realize that with any deep fryer you are going to have to use a lot of oil, but we go through an entire (small) bottle of oil each time. My other complaint is that the cord that goes from the unit into the electrical outlet does not stay plugged into the unit very well, and really any movement will cause the unit to become...

l4rry0 says "The Rival CZF530 is the best deep fryer on the market." about Rival Rival CZF530 3L Cool Touch/Cool Zone Deep Fryer

l4rry0 — Sun, 08 Nov 2009 00:39:30 GMT

When ever my children crave french fries or fried chicken, I happily take out my Rival CZF530 and get ready to make my kids happy. My mom recommended this fryer to me and I've been using it ever since I went to college. Not only did my floormates like it too,but it made them come asking for more. I've tried other difficult deep fryers, but this Rival is of all, my favorite. All I have to do is set the timer, load it with my special fried chicken recipe, and press start. I don't even have to watch it; I can watch TV, and when its dinner time, the aroma of chicken fills the entire apartment complex. The only con is that it is small and cannot make enough chicken to feed my entire family. I believe this fryer makes my chicken taste better, and I would recommend it. I have owned mine for over 9 years, and its never failed. "Your chicken tastes better than KFC's" say my friends whenever I bring my special chicken to potlucks. I say that it is because of my deep-fryer, which I love.

emers0207 says "you can wash it in the dish washer" about Presto kettle

emers0207 — Sat, 07 Nov 2009 20:36:34 GMT

My family loves deep fried foods and it seems like at least once a week we get out the deep fryer to make french fries, onion rings, mozzarellva sticks, fried fish, etc. Now I've used a lot of deep fryers and this is the first one that can be put in the dish washer to be cleaned - the whole thing, not just the removable basket!!! I absolutely love that. all my other ones seemed great at first but as time wore on the oil splatter would build up until they were gross, sticky messes that I would just end up throwing out. Not anymore, now I just throw it in the dish washer and voila it's all nice and pretty again. On top of deep frying it also can be a steamer and rice cooker. it is really quite amazing. the only cons I would give this product are that it uses a lot of oil and it doesn't heat up very quickly (it takes like 20 minutes compared witht the 5 of some fryers) other than that though, it is the best one I've had.

andrealoans says "The De'Longhi D14427DZ Deep Fryer is very handy" about DeLonghi D14427DZ

andrealoans — Sat, 07 Nov 2009 19:52:44 GMT

I liked the size and shape of this fryer better for cooking fried chicken, It seems like we can fit more in with out having to stack them so much. We use the fryer about every other week to make fried chicken, chicken nuggets, french fries or pre-made frozen fried foods. It heats up pretty quickly, but you do need to remember to let it reheat after each batch. The controls are a little confusing, but now that we have been using it for 6 months, I think both my husband and myself have it all figured out. It is rather easy to clean since the heating element can be removed and the tub that holds the oil can come out of the stand so you can pour out the oil. The basket come out and I use a small brush to clean it. The only downside to that is the way the mesh pattern is on the basket. sometimes the bristles get stuck and I have to watch to make sure I don't accidentally pull any out of the brush and leave them attached to the basket. I don't think we want melted plastic on our food. I like...

jkestes says "Wonderful results with an easy-to-use fryer" about Rival Deep Fryer CZF725

jkestes — Sat, 07 Nov 2009 19:23:47 GMT

Oh, how we love this fryer! Even though I consider myself an accomplished cook, I've never really been comfortable frying foods. It seems hard to get the temp just right, oil splatters all over, and I always really worry about one of the children coming along and getting splattered.

About a year ago, I decided that I really wanted to try my hand at homemade doughnuts. Commercially available doughnuts are full of so many yucky chemical additives and I was eager to make these treats from scratch.

I did a LOT of homework before I bought this model, and I have never for a moment regretted the purchase. In fact, after a few weeks my husband bought me a second one! (We have a very large family and this is a time saver.) I love the fact that the lid closes securely, the basket is easy to raise, and the filter prevents that "cooked oil" smell. It is VERY easy to use.

Now, about one Sunday a month, my husband and I work together and make a mountain of homemade doughnuts. We pile...

JayeCarden says "The Euro-Pro F1045 is hot!" about Euro-Pro F1045

JayeCarden — Fri, 30 Oct 2009 19:43:51 GMT

The Euro-Pro F1045 is a neat little deep fryer that is easy to use. Not that any deep fryer would be hard that is, but you get lots of neat gadgets on the F1045 that makes it more appealing.

It has a timer on the front of the deep fryer that counts all the way up to thirty minutes. It also has a metal basket to make putting you food in, and taking your food out alot easier than with tongs. It has a thermostat to select your desired temprarture from two hundred seventy five to three hundred seventy five degrees. It's light weight and stays cool on the outside even when cooking.

The timer though doesn't seem to me to be the best built one out there. After about three or four times cooking with the Euro-Pro F1045, the timer began to get stuck. I was really depending on it to let me know how long my food had been cooking. Now it has quit completely and I'm back to using a clock on the wall. If you buy a Euro-Pro F1045, I do hope you have more luck with it than me.

sherrylou54 says "That Ginny's Deep Fryer is a real good one and worth the price!" about Ginnys Ginny's Deep Fryer

sherrylou54 — Mon, 26 Oct 2009 19:04:12 GMT

I've had the Big Daddy and to me it doesn't match up with the Ginny's Deep Fryer. I love the fact that you can view your fries while frying because it has a window for that one purpose. I've had mine over 10+ years and it still looks and performs the same as the beginning. Makes me hungry just thinking about it. I guess I'll just have to have me some Home-made Hushpuppies, fries and deep fried fish tonight. Sure sounds Good! I know that has nothing to do with the product But on the other hand if I had NO Ginny's Deep Fryer, then I wouldn't be able to tell you how good of a product it is to me. It has and still is worth the money I paid for it, which was only $59.99. Ginny's is a mail order catalog and if you have the Internet, it sure would profit you if you could go into their Website and see the product that I'm talking about and purchase it for yourself, you truly won't go wrong. Thanks for your time.

NadiaHughes says "This product is small but does what it says." about Presto 05424 fry daddy

NadiaHughes — Sat, 24 Oct 2009 15:01:02 GMT

I got my fry daddy two years ago as a Christmas gift from a friend. I was really skeptic about the item because it was so small, so I didn't use the item right away I let it set in the box for at least four months before I decided to use it. In April I was having my house warming party and there were a lot of people that was expected to come over and I had a limited amount of time to prepare the food for the party. With being so busy with moving and packing from my old address to my new one I realized that I had not when and brought any kind of skillets. I had pots, pan, and other cooking utensil but not a skillet anywhere. I was starting to panic, so I called my sisters to bring over a few of their skillets and see if I would be able to at least get some of the food done before my guest started to arrive. I still was short on skillets so I remembered that with some of the stuff that I had packed that I did pack my Fry Daddy. I unpacked it and plugged the unit in the wall added my cooking...

HStanley2008 says "Rival fryers are great for first-timers!" about Rival Extra Large Deep Fryer

HStanley2008 — Sat, 24 Oct 2009 02:56:38 GMT

The Rival deep fryer is the first one that I have ever owned. So far, I am very satisfied with it. It has an adjustable heat setting and timer. The timer is easy to set and works very well. I really enjoy this feature because it prevents me from burning my food! You are able to lift and lower the tray without opening the lid. I have found that the filtration system does not really let out a lot of the steam. It's easier to lift the tray, give it a few seconds to cool off, and then open the lid. This prevents the hot steam from rising up into your face. It does tend to smell a lot when the grease gets hot, but I have come to expect this from fryers.I just keep it near the fan over the stove and it works fine! The basket is large enough to accomodate food for 4 people, but the overall fryer does not take up too much room on the counter. The magnetic plug-in keeps the fryer safe from catching on-fire when I do not want it plugged up. This is very important when grease is involved! It heats...

Nean says "no other fryer like this" about Waring deep fryer

Nean — Sun, 18 Oct 2009 23:15:34 GMT

We bought this fryer about a yr. ago at Bed Bath and Beyond. We were in the market for a new fryer. They did not have a very good selection to choose from. There were only two kinds. We chose the Waring. We were a little hesitant to buy because it was costly. We wanted a fryer and was taking a risk. It had a lot of the options we needed. It had a timer, big tub, dish washer friendly if needed too. We love it. I use it all the time. Even though I do not fry a lot. It comes in hady. We get omre use out of it then I thought we would.

yana1985 says "Works like it should" about Presto Presto Digital ProFry Immersion Deep Fryer

yana1985 — Tue, 13 Oct 2009 03:41:01 GMT

I have been wanting a deep fryer for a while now and finally took the plunge with this product. It was everything I wanted. I've had it for a month now and used it 3 times. I find myself wanting to fry in it. I don't use it each time I want to fry because it requires so much oil (the only negative). I'm seriously considering purchasing a mini fryer to use when I want to fry for just myself. The digital controls offer convenience and extra features. Set the temp and turn it on, it beeps when it reaches the selected oil temp. The timer is easy to use and loud enough to be heard. Recovers quickly when adding frozen food. Cleanup is no more than a small unit. As I have had it for just a short period of time, I'm hopeful that it will last for a very long time. I Love it, I Love it, I Love it, I would highly recommend this product to anyone who is looking to purchase a Deep Fryer. I think this is a great product.

TaraLee says "When you want it fried and you want it fast." about Waring Deep Fryer - DF250

TaraLee — Mon, 12 Oct 2009 01:14:55 GMT

I have to confess, I love fried food. I am trying to not eat fried foods as much, but there is nothing finer than a fried potato, if you ask me. I first saw the Waring Deep Fryer at a friends house. We were having a cooking contest and I accused him of having an unfair advantage because he was using the Waring Deep fryer. Although I ended up winning, the deep fryer made it easy for him to win the appetizer portion of the contest. This deep fryer heats quickly and has a deep basket, that is sturdy and has enough room for a large piece of fish, the handles stay cool and the mechinism for lowering the product seems to minimize splashes. the stainless steel oil resevoir looks professional enough that it is not unsightly to have on your counter. I was resistant in purchasing this because it is so easy to use that my consumption of fried food will increase.

I finally broke down and registered for one for my wedding. We received it a few weeks ago and already I am making homemade potato chips....

jasyjen says "The best deep fryer I've ever owned" about Rival 1 Liter Cool Touch Deep Fryer

jasyjen — Sat, 10 Oct 2009 22:49:18 GMT

For many years, deep fryers were banned from our house. They were messy, always splattering hot grease everywhere, and I had not used one for a very long time. While I try to fix healthy meals for the most part, there are some things that just need to be deep fried for best results. Homemade Won-Tons are delicious, but when I tried to fry them in a pan, the result was a big greasy mess!

We found the Rival Cool Touch Deep Fryerat Walmart, which was on sale for around $ 20.00 and what attracted me to this particular model was that it was a locking lid that will keep the hot grease contained inside the unit. We don't need to have a very large deep fryer, so being that it was only a one liter unit, it seemed to be just the right size for us.

We purchased the unit, took it home and washed it out and filled it with vegetable oil. There is a fill line, indicating how far to fill the deep fryer. It didn't look like much oil and I began doubting the purchase, but it did turn out...

reed7333 says "Euro-Pro small fryer is good for two or three people" about Euro-Pro Euro-Pro Deep Fryer 1.5 L

reed7333 — Fri, 09 Oct 2009 14:18:58 GMT

The 1.5 Litre Euro-Pro Deep fryer is good for two or three people. It doesn't use a lot of oil and is perfect for a small amount. When the food comes out of the fryer, it is not as greasy as frying in an open skillet. I don't eat a lot of fried foods but when the craving comes over me, I take out the little Euro-Pro deep fryer. It is quick and an easy clean up for me. It is inexpensive and good for the price. Buying something more expensive would be a waste of money since it is only used a little. I cook chicken nuggets, fish nuggets and other vegetables in the fryer and I don't have the splatter all over the cabinets since it has a lid that closes. It is easy storage under the cabinet. The cord is magnetic and attaches easily. It doesn't leave my kitchen smelling like fried foods which is a plus to me. The strainer baskets makes it easy to put food in and take it out of the fryer. It rest on the side to drain the oil before putting it on a plate. It is a good buy for the money.

djtalley03 says "Best deep fryer I have ever owned." about Tefal Family Pro Fryer Digital

djtalley03 — Thu, 08 Oct 2009 23:36:30 GMT

The T-Fal Family Pro Fryer Digital is one of the best products I have ever owned. It is compact enough to put in the cabinet with little room used up. Easy to clean with the pot coming put and the heat elements are removable as well. Carrying handles do not get hot so it is easy to move from place to place without getting burned. Sleek new design. Easy to read digital numbers. Has a timer and easy to set tempature buttons. Uses less oil than traditional fryers. Large basket to fry more at once. Magnetic plug makes it easy to unplug. Does not take up a lot of counter space.

premose says " Keep your deep fryers in spite of grease's bad rep" about Hamilton Beach big daddy

premose — Thu, 08 Oct 2009 16:49:48 GMT

Saving has been engraved into my frontal lobes by a penny-pinching single MOM, who probably still had the first plastic shopping bag (or sack - depending upon where you came from) in her house when she sold it. So it was, when I discovered that I still owned a deep fryer although I gave up home-frying foods eons ago ; I was faced with an enormous decision. What shall I do with this white elephant? Luckily, I had misplaced the cord to my slow cooker and the Church was waiting for my Buffalo Chili that I'd cooked on my new stove top( see previous Review on stovetops) for their Cook-off, tasting and sale. An "epiphany" or at least a non religious thought alleviated all doubt in my perturbed mind. I would put the chili in the deep fryer and hope I didn't burn the food or worse yet start the church on fire. It worked beautifully. It heated quickly and I was able to adjust it to keep hot without boiling over or getting luke warm. Now if I can just find its glass top, I will...

mweese1227 says "The Tefal Family Pro Fryer makes meals a breeze" about Tefal Family Pro Fryer Digital

mweese1227 — Wed, 07 Oct 2009 12:28:52 GMT

The Tefal Family Pro Fryer is a welcome addition to my kitchen. Its digital features is so easy to set it truly makes deep frying a breeze. The Tefal Family Pro Digital Fryer also features a magnetic plug. It is a wonderful concept, but it still needs some work. For my family the large cooking tub is great, but for a smaller family it would be nice to have less oil to buy and worry about storing. The filter system is also a great idea it definitely keeps the cooking oil cleaner longer. When it is time to empty the oil and clean the fryer, it comes apart very easily and is fairly easy to clean. The removable basket makes it much easier to drain the grease before serving the food. The Tefal Family Pro Fryer also has a removable heating element so there is little risk of shock when cleaning it. It preforms equally well for french fries and meat. I would highly recommend the Tefal Family Digital Pro Fryer for any busy mom with a family that enjoys deep fried foods.

babers says "perfect multicooker, I Love It!" about Presto Multi-Cooker

babers — Tue, 06 Oct 2009 04:49:42 GMT

The presto multicooker is a great invention! In one appliance you get a slow cooker, a crock pot, a deep fryer and it is non stick and very well made. The box comes with a non stick cooker, that doubles as a deep fryer, a crock pot, a metal strainer with handle, a direction booklet with recipes, and a heating element that breaks away when pulled on for safety(GREAT if you have small children). and a glass lid that fits on all the parts. The deep fryer is non stick, deep and heats up to 400 degrees. Works great and is fully sumersable which is great! The crock pot is a stone pot and holds alot, the deep fryer cooker pan can also make fast work of cooking things up fast. I have made chili in 30 minutes in this pan. Washing is so simple and easy. The frying straining basket is a great accessory. The whole thing stores inside it self and does not take up much room at all, no more than a regular crockpot would. For the money, space saving, and durable well made this is a great buy and...

uday190 says "The good one with basic price" about Eagle EF10-120 Deep Fryer

uday190 — Tue, 06 Oct 2009 02:47:34 GMT

Veru good frier at very reasonable price. EF10-120 is good sized one which can accomadate large quantity based on the price. it is a shock resistant. IT IS MOST WIDELY used by many house holds too. It is quiet durable. It can be used for different types of fries like potato in general and few more items which ladies know more about that. This brand product is also very well known and has nice goodwill. So, even depending on the product brand it can be somewhat purchased. Most of the products are over priced but this product is fairly priced. If someone is willing to buy frier I definitely recommend this. It is even very rough and tough, mean it doesnt require much wash and maintenance compared to other products. Some of the products are good to look at so most of the ladies may move at their outlook. But, look at the performance and durability. My review may be wrong in some of the cases. I surely accept their dissapproval in some cases

housss says "Hi the deep frier is something else." about not sure deep frier

housss — Mon, 05 Oct 2009 20:56:28 GMT

HI, you guys have to hear this one about the deep frier. Can we clean it well? Does it not stay greasy? Well, I have never been so insulted in all my life. I look at my sister's Lucille's and she needs a new one. I pray that anything sown in dishonor will be made in honor. Well, I am so skeptical about purchasing one and because the cleaning part is a havoc and the grease stays on the product. The food comes out good but the cleaning can leave germs and bad ways. Germs manifest of the deep fryer and you should replace the fryer every year if cleaned good because of the manifiestation of the germs on the fryer of the grease and towel and soap. Well, the deep fryer is good to have if you like frying deeply. I like the old pan on the stove and I love the way my food comes out sometimes. I lean on the God for good directions on the cooking methods I have from my parents. They keep grease a long time. Well, be good to yourself. Amen.
