I had previously been a fryer from Tefal which also was good, but nothing compared to this. You will get very hot. Is easy to clean if you have a dishwasher. When fried Breaded fall through most of the collecting part because breadcrumbs is simply too small for the collecting part. But since then stores under the heating unit and not totally burn like my old fryer oil stays clean much longer. Even after 6x frying the fried was still golden yellow. I use simple rapeseed oil of 1.30 liters for approx.
