Looks good ... but it stops there. Made in Germany manufactured as of Made in China. The thickness of the first sheet, the incredibly short length of the power wire, a lightweight hood without any seal that lets out all the steam and odors, the filter on top is "cosmetic" because everything hand sides. Finally, if the design is smart, one fully removable Teflon tank for cleaning, the resistance is too low given the ability of the oil to be heated. The fryer is struggling, do not overload the basket with frozen fries if the temperature falls apart soon, which is detected too late by the thermostat. You'll struggle to get crispy fries ... it must raise the basket and wait until the temperature rises, plunge the basket, it takes quite some time. The thermostat button is useless ... you will always be thoroughly!
