Review: Great frier and very affordable - The basket on our old Presto fryer broke and I was not excited to replace it. I went with Presto because it is a brand that I trust. Presto has been in the fry business since I was a kid. This unit is very sturdy and is very much like the one I replaced. It comes apart for easy cleaning. Use liquid oil and you will be able to just pour the oil out when it is time to replace. The element lifts out so you can really get in to scrub the vessel. I highly recommend this for anyone who likes fried food at home. It is a nice size. We were able to make a whole bag on French fries in just two batches. The only thing I find different from my previous frier is that there is not cord storage in the back. That is not a big deal to me.
Review: Simple, reliable fryer that heats fast - I’ve been really happy with the Presto 05461 Stainless Steel Pro Fry Immersion Element fryer. It heats up quickly and keeps a steady temperature, which makes frying much easier and less messy than using a pot on the stove. I’ve used it for fries, chicken, and shrimp, and everything comes out evenly cooked and crispy. The stainless steel design looks nice on the counter and feels durable. I also like that the heating element lifts out, which makes cleaning much simpler than I expected. It’s not overly complicated to use, so even if you’re not a big cook, you can figure it out right away. If you want a dependable fryer for home use without spending a fortune, this is a solid choice.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: What is the minimum amount of oil that can be used?**
A: Between the "low" and "high" mark inside the pan that holds the oil is 2.5 liters or 2.64 quarts.
You don't want your food sitting in oil with the basket in the up position so the best idea is to fill until the oil level sits just under the basket.

**Q: what are the dimensions of the basket?**
A: 7 X 9 X 3........with 3 being the depth.

**Q: Has anyone tested the max temperature that the oil gets? What is that temp?**
A: When set to 375, I got 345.  Not real happy.

**Q: is the power cord magnetized/polarized? or is it the standard power cord?**
A: Yes, it is magnetized, as most of these fryers have.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Works great, just needs upkeep
*by A***A on February 13, 2026*

This fryer works really well and heats up quickly. It does a great job cooking food evenly and gives that perfect crispy finish. The only downside is that it can be a bit hard to maintain and clean, especially after multiple uses. You have to stay on top of the upkeep. Overall, it’s a good product, just requires some effort to keep it in top shape.
