The fryer is very easy to use.  
1.  You do not have to wait a long time for the oil to heat up after each batch.
2.  Oil does not get on everything (like it does when frying on the stove).
3.  The spatula that comes with it not only takes the food out, but it can be used to clean the oil.  
4.  You can store the used oil in the fryer or you can dispose of it. 
5.  Even though it cooks fast, you still get a good color and taste for your food.
