easy to use!

October 11, 2011
"I had an old T-Fal fryer and loved it, but it grew old, so i looked at many fryers and chose this one in spite of reading about the leaking problems, and am so glad i did! This entire fryer is washable with the exception of the controls, and so easy to tear apart and put back together. As far as leaking, yes, if it is overfilled, as my son did when he put in a gallon of oil then tried to strain it, there is a problem, but used properly, it works wonderfully. My son has fried everything but his shoes in it without incident after his first learning experience and my counter has remained clean. My only small fault with this product is that it is a very substantial unit and needs room, but well worth the rearranging."

Emeril Fryer

October 10, 2011
"Love my new fryer! No problems with oil leaking as some other reviewers had. Perfectly cooked veggie tempura. No oily vapor/smoke throughout the house, and the food was not the least bit greasy!! What wonderful features; automatic oil filtering system, and most of the parts go right into the dishwasher!!
The only issue I had was with the cord. It is designed to disconnect from the fryer easily, and I moved the fryer an inch or two and of course it came off. Since my grandchildren will be visiting next time I use the fryer I realize it is a very important safety feature.

Thought it was a good product.....

November 8, 2010
"We have had the fryer for about two years and for the first six months the product worked well and then it just started leaking oil. Have sent the product back to T-Fal and after two months we got the product back claiming it was fixed. On the first use it started leaking oil worse. I would not recommend this product. It's great that it stores and filters the oil but after the oil ends up all over your counter top, cabinets and floor there really isn't that much left to store."

The Best!

October 20, 2010
"We absolutely love our fryer. It is a nice size fryer - big enough to do 6 chicken drumsticks at a time. It is a substantial appliance, however, so make some space in your kitchen for it. The best feature overall is the ease of cleaning up after this thing. You simply slip the switch from fry to filter and it automatically filters the oil (once it's cooled down enough) into the storage container in the bottom. After that's done, I wipe out all the gunk inside the pan and put it in the dishwasher along with the fry basket - and that's it! We use the fryer more now then we ever did just because the task of cleaning up afterwards is so simple. I researched quite a bit before buying and this is by far the best value considering all the features and size."

NICE FRYER - EXCEPT FOR THE PLUG

July 2, 2010
"We've had our fryer for a couple of months now and really love the way it cooks. It's super easy to clean and being able to filter the oil automatically is wonderful.
The problem with the unit has been the odd plug. It may be a safety factor, but it seems to be held in magnetically so there's not a really firm connection. This becomes a problem because the looseness of the cord causes the "ready" light to malfunction. You can be waiting and waiting for the ready light to come on before you realize that the cord has come loose. It's a fairly constant problem...easily fixed, but annoying because it happens over and over again.
Don't know that I would recommend it, there's probably other "good" fryers out there without this plug problem...so I'll have to say no."

Makes Frying Super Easy and Delicious!!!

March 15, 2010
"I bought this fryer about 2 months ago for my husband because I was tired of large pots of oil sitting on our stove constantly. I read all the reviews and bought this one because of the oil strainer/filter feature. The first time he used he had filled to max fill line. When he strained the oil, it overflowed the storage reservoir (too much oil to store in the unit if you fill to max capacity). Once he figured out what amount works best--no problems or leaks. Temperature allows the fried bits of goodness to be crispy and juicy, not greasy or overcooked. We make fried chicken legs and wings, tilapia, mushrooms, french fries--all perfectly cooked. Clean up is pretty quick and easy and oil can be used quite a few times due to filtration process.
We have used this fryer about 2 dozen times now and would highly recommend this for anyone who enjoys fried foods. It's easy to use and the large capacity allows you to make small and family-sized quantities. The ability to strain the oil is a HUGE plus. Temperature works well and lid/cover keeps oil from splattering too. It also looks great on the counter if you need to leave it out."

Great Deep Fryer

February 19, 2010
"I have owned several deep fryers over the years. Always hated the fact that they were hard to clean. The filtering feature on this works great. Just be careful that the fryer is not above the MAX level before turning to filter after end of frying..I started with max level, made fried chicken (1 whole bird) and noticed I was above the MAX level and had to remove about 2 ladles full of oil..If it is overfilled you will have leakage because the container will overflow...I have had no problems myself but I have read reviews mentioning this. I love the fact that as soon as you are finished frying, you turn the dial to filter, as soon as the oil is cool enough it filters automatically!!. All the parts except the heating element go in the dishwasher..and they are sized so they all fit a normal dishwasher...the only thing I haven't put in the dishwasher is the housing, but it is ok to put in too... I thought maybe it was a little pricey..but after using it is is worth the cost... I think in the long run the oil filtration system will save me money as I can use the same oil multiple times since it stays cleaner. I would like to see an option to order an extra oil container, so I could have one for frying stronger flavored foods like fish and onion rings and another for frying other items like donuts... overall I am really impressed with this fryer."

"The straining and storing of the oil seemed kind of gimmicky to me but I bought one anyway because of the high customer rating. Now that I've used this fryer, I find that this feature is really worthwhile. Sure, you can use a funnel and filter and strain the oil into a bottle, but in the past it seldom got done. With this fryer it gets done with every use; you can't wash the pan without storing the oil, so you practically have to use the feature, greatly prolonging the usable life of the oil.
Other fryers advertise a "dual zone" feature, where the oil on the bottom is cooler than on the surface. I don't believe the description mentions this, but when I tested mine I found that there was a consistent 25 F difference, with the surface being very close to the temp that was programmed.
I am very glad that I spent the extra money for this fryer. It is well worth it"

If you have to have a fryer....

February 9, 2010
"....this is the one to get! My husband brought a Fry Daddy to the relationship when we first got together. It was my first experience with deep fryers, and I hated it! I basically never let him use it, but even then was occasionally disgusted by it when I had to move it around in the cabinet. When we got engaged and started registering he insisted we get a new fryer. I was really hoping we could just not fry things, but since it was one of his only requests I read through every review on fryers from Macy's. I decided on this one, and am SO RELIEVED at how easy and clean it is to use.
Everything except the heating element can go in the dishwasher. The lid helps combat spitting, the basket is a nice size, and at the end of frying, you just twist a knob to drain all the grease into a sealed container. When you need to use it again, just pop the container out and pour. We've only had it a couple months and must have used it a dozen times already because it is SO easy.
The food out of this thing is noticeably healthier/less greasy than if I fried it in a pan, and it's opened us up to new menu possibilities. My faves so far have been fish and chips - dipped in Panko for a light flakey crust, nothing like anything you'd buy frozen at a store - and Greek fries - just used the frozen crinkle fries from the supermarket, and covered in feta and seasoning. Delish!"

USER-FRIENDLY FRYER

December 16, 2009
"Best phrase to use this product is "user-friendly"; it is durable, convenient, and considerate to the homemaker. It is wide and has a large capacity. I'm not fond of frying because of the splatter it makes but having this fryer makes it very convenient. Thank you, Emeril! Hope you will come out with more user-friendly products for the kitchen."

easy to clean

September 28, 2009
"I have never owned a fryer before as I believe in healthy eating but a few recipes do call for deep frying, hence I bought the emerilware fryer after careful reviewing of other products.
It holds a lot thus doing away with numerous batches of frying and is so easy to clean and filter the oil when needed. Most important of all, the kitchen does not smell of hot oil during cooking or after."

ONE OF THE BEST PURCHASES WE'VE EVER MADE

August 18, 2009
"We've had our deep fryer for about 8 months and we absolutely LOVE it! It's the BEST deep fryer out there. It's easy to clean and looks good too! We bought one for a dear friend for his birthday and are buying another one for our daughter for college! Don't waste your money on any other deep fryer! Sure, you might find one that is less expensive but, the quality of this deep fryer and any finished product is worth the extra $30-$40!"
