This DeLonghi deep fryer is a great deep fryer have been using it for about a week and half now and have made lots of different types of fried food in it. I have made French fries because my daughter loves French fries they were so crispy and good and not greasy at all. Also made some fried chicken strips and they were done so quickly and easily really crispy and good. Fried okra was cooked so fast and to perfection this deep fryer is great for frying anything. The clean up is a breeze because it has a drain system which is awesome. The reason I gave it four stars and not five is because this thing is huge and takes up a lot of space. My kitchen is a moderate size but this takes up quite a bit of room. The good thing is that it cooks a lot of food at once. I would definitely recommend this product as long as you have the space for it. Deep fryer is great, easy to use, easy to clean, the only thing is that it is big.
