I had first looked at a 60-euro rotating, larger fryer (DeLonghi), then returned. In comparison with that: Severin is small, fits really everywhere. Although the frying basket seems small, I've fried per pass, for example 10 balls Falafel. The result was just perfect! I frittiere in heated oil briefly, then take the basket to cool briefly and then I highly frittiere finished. The surface is crispy and not taking unnecessary fat inside. I use sunflower oil. The inner basket is coated and has a temperature controller, which displays with a light if the oil, 0.75 l, is already heated. Granted, the cover does not completely close or similar with a lock, it only works up to. (Ie not tilting while cleaning ...!). When opening the lid I take a rag to protect me from hot steam and grease. Here a consumer had advised the handle on the basket always turn permit, even if the cover is not very approaching. I'll do the same now, I see no degradation during frying. Thus one has the weak point of this device, the attachment and detachment of the handle bypassed the frying basket I do okay. From my "thumbs up"! For the price you can not do anything wrong. The result has convinced me, and the device is ideal for one or two people.
