Product Description Make delicious deep fried foods fast and easy—crispy french fries, onion rings, chicken, shrimp and more. FryDaddy® electric deep fryer maintains the ideal frying temperature automatically with no controls to set. With an efficient 4:4 oil-to-food ratio, fry four servings of french fries in just four cups of oil, and enjoy the added benefits of quick preheat time and fast oil temperature recovery. The heat resistant lift-and-drain scoop also serves foods after frying. Cleanup is easy with the PFAS-free ceramic nonstick surfaces inside and out. If desired, the snap-on lid secures oil for reuse without spills or odor. The convenient swing-up handle makes FryDaddy® easy to carry and store. desertcart.com You don't need a 6-gallon oil vat to enjoy deep-fried foods at home--this petite deep fryer makes four big servings with just 4 cups of oil. A compact 7 inches in diameter, the fryer features easy controls for precision frying: it automatically maintains the proper frying temperature, letting you focus on cooking instead of fussing with the controls. The fryer features a snap-on lid, so you can store oil right in the fryer for reuse. All surfaces are nonstick for tidy cleanup (the fryer is not dishwasher-safe and should never be completely immersed in water). A hand scoop is included with the fryer for easy stirring, lifting, and draining, and the 120-volt AC cord unplugs from the outlet, while the attached handle makes the fryer easy to move around the kitchen. The fryer has a two-year limited warranty. --Ariel Meadow Stallings

Review: Great fish fryer - Very large. Works well. Extremely satisfied. Cleans easily.
Review: Great for small batches - Great little fryer, I use this to fry chicken, I only make 4 pieces and put 2 in at a time. Obviously if you had a bigger family and needed to make multiple pieces this wouldn't be convenient. Easy to use just plug it in, wait 15 min for oil to heat up. Chicken cooked perfectly each time (leg and wing took 12mins) . Some deep fryers you need so many quarts of oil and when you're frying a small amount it just seems like such a waste so this was perfect for me.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: What temperature does this thing cook at? Does it cook at 350 degree F?**
A: Using a candy thermometer, mine goes beyond 400 degrees Fahrenheit and when I cook with it, it cooks the outside just fine but the inside stays raw. I was also using breaded chicken that had sat out to room temperature.

**Q: Does this splatter very much while cooking?**
A: YOU ABSOLUTELY "MUST" BUY A SPLATTER SCREEN TO GO WITH IT. IT WILL SPATTER OIL. HOW MUCH DEPENDS ON THE MOISTURE CONTENT OF THE FOOD AND HOW QUICKLY YOU ADD IT. ALSO DO NOT FOLLOW THE COOKING INSTRUCTIONS OR YOU'LL OVER COOK EVERYTHING BIG TIME. AS AN EXAMPLE INSTRUCTIONS SAY 4-8 MINUTES FOR SHRIMP. REALITY IS ABOUT 2 MINUTES 10 SECONDS.  FRIES - BOOK SAYS 8-10 MINUTES - REALITY IS ABOUT 4 MINUTES LESS IF THIN CUT. FISH FILLETS - BOOK SAYS 4 TO 8 MINUTES - REALITY IS 3 TO 4 MINUTES DEPENDING ON THICKNESS OF THE FILLETS.  BE SURE TO PREHEAT FOR JUST 15 MINUTES. THAT PART THE CHINESE GOT RIGHT. AS A GENERAL RULE OF THUMB WHEN WHAT YOUR COOKING FLOATS ON TOP OF THE OIL ITS DONE. YOU'LL LEARN AS YOU GO . IT IS A GREAT FRYER EXCEPT YOU CAN'T PUT A LARGE AMOUNT IN A ONE TIME. DO NOT GET THE LARGER FRY GRAND DADDY IT SUCKS. IT JUST DOES NOT HEAT THE OIL HOT ENOUGH.

**Q: where is this made?**
A: Like everything else-- apparently designed  in America (Wisconsin).  Made in China.  Be that as it may-- this is a grand little fry pot.  Holds a lot.  The heat is controlled and delivers a lovely finished product.  Easy to clean. It is definitely a FIVE STAR in this house hold.  Shrimp, Oysters, fish sticks, chicken wings, donuts-- they all come out just perfect.  Great price and you know how quick Amazon can get it to your door!

**Q: How many watts is this cooker?**
A: 1200 watts,very nice fryer.
