Question: what are the dimensions of the basket?
Document: this is awesome, i do wish i would have ordered the 2 basket one. but this definitely is a great fryer
It shipped fast to my house and works great already have used it a bunch. Basket handle doesn't look into position tho so kinda tricky pooring things out of the basket
This deep fryer is large enough to fry foods for my family of four. The temperature is exact, and it fries food evenly. It also is very easy to clean as the basket lifts out. I love it!
Having the basket with this unit and the part that allows you to hang the basket over the side make this deep fryer a winner in my book. It allows the oil to drip off the food and saves me from having to use a ton of paper towels.
Got this for a Fry party I threw. worked great cooked everything just fine. I have never used a fryer this small before, so I found out that to not have you food stick to the bottom of the fry basket you need to hold the food with tongs for about 10 second before letting it go.
When it's filled to the max fill line and the basket is hanging on the edge of the unit, there is a slight bit of overlap between the basket and the oil. Which makes it basically impossible to really drain your food, because about 1/4th an inch of your food is still hanging in hot oil. In the future I won't fill it quite to the fill line.
My 86 year old dad bought one, he said it would be good when the grandkids. A great product, love that the basket not only comes out but can rest on the side. Each kid was able to have their favorite for dinner, corn dogs, tater tots, chicken nuggets. Breakfast became very easy with french toast sticks. Made well and easy to use.
I researched for what felt like a year before buying a deep fryer. There were so many various features and price ranges, but in the end I am so glad we selected this fryer! It has a basket, which I appreciate. It keeps the oil hot and gets back to temperature quickly between batches. It has very few pieces to have to figure out and put back together after cleaning. And it is on the inexpensive side for fryers.
The temperature control is accurate, the heating coils are in the oil as opposed to under the unit (this is good, because a crumb layer on the latter kind will make it even harder for your oil to stay the temperature it's supposed to), it came with a nice basket with a collapsible handle. It fits on my countertop and is comparable in size to my Keurig and my Kitchenaid stand mixer. It has a removable layer for easier cleaning. The lid fits as snugly as you would want it to.
or some oil splashes up onto the knob. Oh well...
Answer: It's really more like 8.5 X 6.5 X 2.5
