Deep Fat Fryers > 2.5 Deep Fat Fryers > by Fryer with Timer

Advantages: cooks fairly well
Disadvantages: Dodgy handle

...must be obeyed' purchased the moulinex deep fat fryer because she liked the colour (sort of a pukey yellow) Ever since we have had the fryer, the unclipable handle comes off nearly every time we take food from the frier. More often that not we get splashed with extremely hot fat. We have to make sure the children are nowhere near when using it. I keep threatening to write to moulinex and complain about it, but unless I can do it on the PC via email ... Read review

A: When it's the Russell Hobbs 10357 I have a large family and on the rare occasions I give them chips or other fried foods, I usually find that I have to cook them in two or even three batches, as a deep fat fryer will only hold so much. One day I decided I'd had enough of this malarkey and decided to hunt on-line for something that would let me cook for the whole family in one go. What I came up with was the Russell Hobbs 10357, a deep fat fryer ...
...couldn't believe my luck and ordered it straight away, thinking at last, an answer to my prayers, or was it…….. ---The Styling--- Looking like something out of an industrial kitchen, this fryer is extremely large and measures in at approximately 34cm square, so it takes up an awful lot of room on my work surface. The majority of the unit is brushed stainless steel, with black plastic detailing, it looks very modern and as I've already said wouldn't ... Read review

Advantages: Oil drainer, easy to keep clean
Disadvantages: Check oil tap is closed!!

I have gone through a few deep fat fryers (mainly because instead of cleaning it I just get a new one!!!) Anyway at the moment I have this one and so far I am impressed with it, even without a timer. Seems easier to keep clean somehow than the white ones. BUT don't do what I did ........... I unpacked it, rinsed it out, put it together, filled with oil and left on kitchen top for later............................ when I walked into kitchen I saw ...
...tap was off, yes all the oil had come out, all over unit and floor. SO remember to check the tap is off. But at least I know it works, and when the oil needs changing I should now manage it without having to buy a new one!!! Also makes lovely chips! ... Read review

Have the actifry for about a week and its fantastic first thing we tried was chips i used marris piper potatoes and they were crispy on the outside and fluffy in the middle best chips I have had in a long time, Since then we have done pork chops, roast potatoes, vegtable still fry, home made garlic mushrooms ( a good dash of garlic powder mixed with the oil ), curried chips, sausages all off which have tasted great. The machine itself is easy to ... Read review

Advantages: Removable lid which is dishwasher safe
Disadvantages: Everything else

...experience. Having just purchased a Delonghi F603 deep fat fryer, believing Delonghi to be a reputable company, I am appalled by this fryer. In fact the item I have cannot really be called a fryer. It takes over 15 minutes to preheat, even then not reaching a frying temperature, merely slight bubbling, resulting in warm soggy greasy potato pieces, rather than chips. Despite turning the temperature control to maximum, and setting the timer to 30 ... Read review
