Closes at the top before lowering the basket so it keeps your cooking area relatively spatter free--great design. Not too troublesome to empty out clean up. Probably encourages me to eat more of wrong kind of food than I would otherwise, but that's a personal problem. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Clean sludge for accurate temperature *by K***I on June 12, 2021* The original Fry Daddy with no temperature knob was much better, but after having kids I needed a safer larger option. For those having the problem of the oil not getting hot enough the secret is to make sure there is no sludge on the bottom. If there is a build up of flour on the bottom, it will get overheat the layer of flour near the sensors without heating up all the oil. This is a safety feature and I would not hack it. The flour on the bottom would burn making the food taste burned and it would be a safety hazard. Another thing that can affect the temperature is adding too much oil. Do not fill it over the maximum line. Unfortunately the line is low that it renders the basket almost useless. If I am frying chicken I will often not use the basket. I wish the temperature gauge got hotter than 375 degrees. I usually use an oil with a high smoke point so heating the oil to 400 before adding a dense food then lowering the temperature to 375 would be my preferred method. For the price I think this is a good purchase. It cleans easily, the lid prevents splatters and filters some (but not all) of the smell. Purist should stick to cast iron on a gas stove with a thermometer because when I have used a thermometer with this machine it sometimes reads 350 when it is on 375 when I have cooked a few batches, probably because flour is building up on the bottom. It still cooks chicken without being too greasy and it can cook all the way through without burning which is a plus. If I am making something more delicate like seafood or donuts, I often prefer the stove top. If you want something convenient and easy to clean and want to make a bunch of fried chicken or french fries this is good fryer, a time saver and very consistent. 15-20 minutes for legs, 20-25 minutes for thighs. I can walk away set a timer and not worry about it burning. ## Frequently Bought Together - Presto 05442 CoolDaddy Cool-touch Deep Fryer - Black - vorpower KALAVE Premium Stainless Steel Funnel, 5 Inch Food Grade Kitchen Funnels with 200 Mesh Food Filter Strainer, Metal Funnel for Filling Bottles, Food Funnel for Oils, Juice, Wine, Coffee, Milk - Oggi Stainless Steel Jumbo Grease Container with Removable Strainer and Snug Lid.
