Chefman 4.5 Liter Deep Fryer w/Basket Strainer, XL Jumbo Size, Adjustable Temperature & Timer, Perfect for Fried Chicken, Shrimp, French Fries, Chips & More, Removable Oil-Container, Stainless Steel

Great little unit. I've done fried chicken, shrimp, empanadas, fries, homemade mozzarella sticks, and I'm sure a bunch of other things in this fryer. It's great and I recommend it highly to anyone who's tired of using the old stainless pot with oil in it on your stove that makes a mess. I take it in the garage, set up my foldable workbench, and get to cooking. Cleanup is easy. Wipe down the outer shell, clean the heating element by hand. Pot, basket, and handle I throw in the dishwasher. Oil dumps out very easily, I don't spill any like I used to. Capacity is big. I've done 8 empanadas in it no problem. Less time spent cooking in batches is more time spent at the table with your family.

Works as intended but basket handle broke after 9-10 uses.

My deep fryer was very good and very easy to clean. I used it a lot and it is worth the money and the heat level is pretty fine. The size is perfect for frying and the smell when it is done is perfectly fine and the oil is very easy to drain.

The Chefman deep fryer is soo easy to use and the clean up was Easy!!! We made Onion rings and they were Great!!!! Next is Zuccini can't Waite until they are in seasoned,Yummy, Yummy for the tummy!😁

really loved the space to Fry takes a little longer to heat up. But I imagine that's because it's a lot bigger than what I used to have. I love it. I hate it. My air fryer. Just got a fry stuff, LO. L.

Growing up I hated deep fryers, mainly because my parents never really cleaned theirs. They'd dump the oil and add fresh, after wiping out the gunk building up in the bottom. But that's where they'd stop. That thing was disgusting to look at and use. So naturally as an adult myself it took me a while to even want to use one. And when I finally did, I fought with it to get it clean on a regular basis. Then I finally found one big enough it doesn't take me 45 minutes to make enough fries for my family of 4 when we have burgers for supper. That was my main goal when I found this deep fryer. I can slice up 4 decent size russet potatoes for fries, cause we don't do frozen fries in my house, and cook them all at once. Done. That was my win.It was time to change the oil out on this fryer, and naturally I am cleaning this thing when I get it empty. I get just about done pouring the oil out when I realize I love this thing even more. I didn't know the oil container comes apart from the frame for easier dumping! Yea, figured that one out when it fell out of the frame onto me. Thankfully it had just emptied. This fryer is designed to come completely apart for easier cleaning. How I missed this when I unpacked the thing, I do not know. The heating element slides right off and is a separate piece, I knew that one. And the actual oil container just picks right up out of the frame. This way you can clean EVERYTHING with hot soapy water and a stainless steel scrubber to get all that nasty cooked on oil off. Of everything. After having used this fryer for two solid months, it looks brand new again. Insert snarky happy grin here.

It's ok. Your food will come out good. But the light when it's done heating up is tricky. Also the plug that goes into the back of the deep fryer isn't that steady and needs adjusting quite a bit to work. So sometimes it won't be on while you're thinking your food cooking so you will just have soggy food and will have to cook it longer. So pay close attention to that.
