Due to the partly very different reviews I have but ultimately chose this fryer because it seemed to me the value for money cheap and we did not regret it. The negative opinions on cheaper processing and badly stowed cable we could not understand. So far, all is well and the manual was also understandable. That something peppy opening the lid will not interfere when you know it, and the temporarily fogged window for me is irrelevant. One can put your and carefully open the lid and look for commands, such as the food looks when you're not sure the basket. We have been deep fried Fritteusenpommes and meat and both have become very tasty and evenly crispy. The cleaning worked well with the practical hose. The oil we've already about 5 times without filters reused without taste impairments determine. Overall, we are very pleased with this fryer and hope that it keeps for a long time!
