Presto 05420 FryDaddy Electric Deep Fryer,Black

Very good item, for 2-3 people size perfect. Clean very easy, fry time fast. There is no oil leakage. Cord little short but its fine. Veru usefull.

Fantastic for making yummy French fries. Heats up within 12 minutes and cooks fast. Seems very durable and easy to use. I have no oil leakage with it. It’s actually fun to use

Great product when you want to fry something quick with little to no mess. I'm sorry,but tater tots are made to be fried and not baked. Does a great job on shrimp and homemade fish fingers. And a air fryer doesn't compare to the taste or quality. Nice and crunchy with a little bit of forbidden guilt of pleasure. You know what I mean. Very easy to use and storing is a breeze. Comes with a scooping spatula and a magnetic cord. Less worries. And the temp is constant.

Great little fryer. Used outside on a cool morning to keep the "fry" smell out of the house. The fryer held its 350 degree temp during a cool windy day and came up very quickly after placing cold food into it. Very pleased!!! Recommend for efficient frying. I love keeping the smell out of my house, this unit functions well outside!

This little deep fryer is PERFECT! You hear me😊. I was so sick of using a pot to fry my fresh potatoes. It heats up fast and fries to perfection! The spoon that’s included worked great as well. It didn’t melt from the hot oil. Great for small portions. I will definitely be buying 2 more, one for my mom, and one for grandma. Great price to! Wish they had this when I was in college, it’s the perfect size if you have limited counter space. The lid is another added bonus, especially if you’re going to reuse the oil timely.

So easy to use. Love that it takes less oil and has a cover to store in thr fridge. Heats up quickly..

The Presto fry daddy is a very simple, convenient, easy to use counter top deep fryer. I recently purchased this newer version, but this has been my experience after years of use in my kitchen with the older versions. I don't seem much change in design but maybe some minor improvements...Pros:1. Easy to use and setup for small batch deep frying.2. Not hard to clean if you clean within a day of cooking, and you're mindful of the outside of the pot where the electrical components are.3. Perfect size for one to two people.4. Presto (fry daddy/fry baby) deep fryers have been around a long time and have proven to be a reliable, popular, and simple to use deep fryer (I've owned a fry daddy and fry granpappy for years myself).5. The small platform makes it easy to store in your cabinet.6. I don't get grease splatter all over my range top by using a Dutch oven to deep fry on my stove.Cons:1. Grease splatter. Not terrible but you will always get some splatter around the unit when frying, especially if you drop foods into the hot grease that have a high moisture content. I use a large aluminum pizza pan under mine to help keep splatter off my countertops while cooking, and clean up soon after the unit has cooled. I haven't myself, but you also may want to try a splatter screen.2. No temperature control. I spent a lot of time in Tampa Florida in my youth and like to cook Ebor City devil crab rolls, which are basically a relatively thick crab meat croquette with lots of Cuban and Italian spices. I've found these need to be cooked at frying temp of no more than 325F to get the center heated right and the breaded outside browned correctly. Unfortunately, all the Fry Daddy, Fry Baby, Fry Granpappy temps are too high to cook these seafood delicacies correctly. It would be great if I could just turn down the heat down by 50 to 75 F to cook my favorite seafood dish. I even bought a second (less convenient) deep fryer, mainly to cook my beloved crab rolls. Come On Presto! Not Everything Needs to be Cooked at 375 degrees F.3. 1. Not good for large batches of fried food. Get the Fry Granpappy for large batches.4. Sides of unit gets hot so don't try to move until relatively cool.Recommendations:1, Again, this is a very simple and easy to use deep fryer, that can easily accommodate enough food for two adults (maybe even a 3rd or 4th depending on how much fried food you're planning on serving), just don't expect to cook for large gatherings.2. Put a large pizza pan or your largest cookie sheet under the unit when frying to keep countertop splatter to a minimum.3.Don't use the deep fryer as a long term storage container for used oil. I recommend straining the oil through a fine mesh sieve after cooking and the oil has cooled enough to handle, then storing in a container in the fridge. Those little bits of burnt breading, etc. will effect the flavor of your used oil after a time. If you are going to fry again within a few days, no problem, but don't just use the deep fryer as and oil storage container. Using some recently used oil again won't have any noticeable effect on the flavor of your fried food as long as you dont let the burnt bits set too long. Also, never fry any "turf" (land) meat or veggies in oil you previously used to fry "surf" (ocean). You can reuse fish grease to fry more seafood, just never fry "turf: with previously used "surf" grease. Should be okay though to fry "surf" with "turf" grease. REGARDLESS, Don't used your Fry Daddy as a Long Term Grease Storage Container.4. (Can't stress this enough) Please let your deep fryer cool to a safe temperature before trying to move, save the used oil, or clean. Hot oil/grease is VERY DANGEROUS. This is a relatively safe deep fryer but very basic and you still be dealing with a HOT POT OF HIGH TEMPERATURE OIL. Be very careful!Conclusion: Worth the money. No unneeded bells and whistles. Temp control would be great.

Goldilocks, Just right! The right size, works great and quickly, would highly recommend!
