Good, but could be better January 23, 2008

We've had several deep fryers of the style, including DeLonghi. I had higher expectations for this item because of past experiences with DeLonghi. First, the pros...The exterior and handle stay cool to the touch. it has an red light that turns off when the oil is hot. (Actually it turns off or on depending if the unit is being heated or not). Flip up lid has a strong spring. (Almost too strong). This unit has a great capacity. It feels well built and very sturdy. I haven't used the drain spout yet, but if it works like past fryers, it will take the mess out of draining the oil. Now for the cons, I don't have a thermometer, but the unit seems to be under-heating. It results in soggier items. It really needs an adjustable thermostat. Also, the small (approx. 18") power cord has a magnet connection. It really needs a stronger magnet. It can be a nuisance to try and hook up.
Overall, for a big fryer, this has nice features, such as, the drain spout, spring-loaded lid, and strong well-built unit.

This product is unreliable. The one which I purchased, after being used 5 times over a two day period, self-destructed in an impressive fashion. It sat on a shelf for over a year, looking very efficient and practical, but that's where it ends. It lacks power, only 1,200 Watts, and the element is NOT directly immersed in the oil. It does stay cool and seems very safe, easy to clean - but don't waste your money. Very limited oil reservoir, less than 1 L. OK for deep frying small quantities of shrimp, that's about it.

DeLonghi D895UX Cool Touch ROTO Electric Fryer
After owning a fry daddy, this is an amazing deep fryer. Positives, drop down basket which handles a fair amount of food, stays cool, heats quickly, foods fry nicely.
negative, the cord is magnetic and comes off easily when moving..but this is what it should do!!
Great product would recommend

Nice fryer. Had to return two Rivals-they quit either on the first use or the second.
I really like the cleaning/drain system. Don't have to try to pour bucket of oil into bottle/can.
Two related disadvantages though. The quick release magnetized plug at the back comes off too easily. Sometimes it looks connected, but it isn't. Have to wiggle it a little. Also, it only has a light that goes out when the operating temp is reached, not a power light. So, if your operating temp is reached and the power cord becomes disconnected, you can't tell the power is off when the temp falls below the proper operating level. I've had it become disconnected without touching/moving the fryer. This requires you to constantly wiggle the plug at the back to make sure the connection is made.
I think for the next use, I'll try cleaning the contacts thoroughly.

How many times have you put frozen mozzarella sticks or frozen onion rings in the microwave? Mushy right? No more. This fryer is a blessing and my kids love it. Mozzarella sticks, onion rings, fries and more all come out crunchy in about 2-3 minutes. The cleaning is so easy, and take it from someone who hates to clean but all you have to do is use the little hose that comes out of the fryer, point it into a bottle or bowl to save the oil, wipe the inside of fryer clean with a damp paper towel, then yhou're set for the next time with clean oil and clean fryer. I use the oil about 3-4 times then I dispose of it. It holds a good amount of food and when I fry pieces of chicken, I find it better to put the chicken in the fryer upside down. This way, less bread crumbs fall off and the chicken tastes better. I already recommended this fryer to my friend for an X-mas gift for his wife and for the price from Amazon, it's the best deal on the web or anywhere else, and believe me I researched fryers for a long time before buying this one. You'll be thrilled with it. Don't hesitate to buy it.
