Amazon.com Review
In the homespun days, food was usually fried in a big cast-iron metal pot. But modern times demand simpler solutions. The Presto DualDaddy electric deep fryer fits on a countertop and is so easy to use. Just add oil, plug it in, and in 15 minutes it's heated up and ready to fry. Its sleek, elliptical black bucket shape matches form to function-- simple and classic.

The DualDaddy holds up to eight cups of oil or four pounds of shortening, and it can handle up to eight servings of food at a time, as well as being large enough to accommodate larger pieces of meat or fish. With the divider in, two kinds of food can be frying at the same time with no intermingling of flavors. The internal thermostat keeps the oil at the optimum frying temperature. An accompanying scoop, slotted for draining, is for lifting food in and out or for turning food halfway through the cooking time. The power cord has a magnetic safety connection, so that if the unit is jostled during cooking, the cord will disconnect, shutting power off immediately. After straining the used oil, it can be poured back into the unit and stored, covered by the accompanying snap-on plastic lid.

After frying, unplug the unit and allow it to cool completely before attempting to empty oil. Wash the DualDaddy with warm, sudsy water and dry it thoroughly; it is not immersible. To preserve the nonstick finish, inside and out, do not use steel wool or harsh, abrasive cleansers. The Presto DualDaddy measures 9 by 14 by 8-1/2 inches (including handles). Presto guarantees this product with a one-year limited warranty. A simple instruction and recipe sheet is enclosed. --Garland Withers

this is a must have if you like to fry different foods at one time. It saves time and energy.


1 out of 5 stars Not worth the money because it doesn't work   March 5, 2008
B. Fitzgerald (Hohenfels, Germany)
I got the Presto Dual Daddy and it is the worst fryer that I have ever had. It doesn't have a temperature control and it heats the oil to almost 450 degrees, so everything was burnt and undercooked. When I got into contact with the company they where very rude to me and admited that they where aware of the problem but did nothing to fix it. I have a few fryers in the past and this one was a waste of money.

I gave this item to my daughter as a Chrstmas gift. I don't think she has used it yet, so I can't actually give a review of its performance.
I can, however, say that the transaction was wonderful. I didn't have to pay any shipping; and the item was received in 3 days! Great transaction.
