Amazon.com Review
Fried food is comfort food--think French fries, doughnuts, or shrimp tempura--and almost everyone craves it at some time or another. But it can be kind of messy to make at home. The Presto CoolDaddy electric deep fryer is an easy-to-use, self-contained frying unit, so there's practically no mess. The hinged lid with its large viewing window eliminates spattering altogether, while a mesh charcoal filter keeps odors to a minimum. The CoolDaddy fits easily on most kitchen countertops, and its look is compatible with a variety of kitchen styles. It's made of off-white, stay-cool plastic with modern contours and gray-and-blue accents.

The removable nonstick oil pot holds up to eight cups of oil or four pounds of shortening, and can accommodate up to six servings of food at a time. A sliding thermostat button allows the oil to be heated up to the optimum frying temperature of 375 degrees F. An indicator light to the left of the handle goes off when the oil has reached the desired temperature. The frying basket's handle extends and locks to lift food in and out; fold it down neatly for storage or to lower the food into the oil. (That can be done with the lid closed, so there's no spattering at all!) The power cord has a magnetic safety connection, so that if the unit is jostled during cooking, the cord will disconnect, shutting power off immediately.

After frying, unplug the unit and allow it to cool completely before attempting to empty oil. Wash the removable pot and frying basket in warm water with mild detergent and a nonabrasive sponge or cloth. The cool-touch plastic base is not immersible; wipe with a damp cloth to clean. The lid gasket is removable and should be cleaned periodically. The mesh charcoal filter should be replaced after approximately 10 to 15 uses. The Presto 05444 CoolDaddy measures 12 by 11 by 10-1/2 inches (handle extends an additional 4 inches). Presto guarantees this product with a one-year limited warranty. A detailed instruction and recipe pamphlet is enclosed. --Garland Withers

Customer Reviews

Great fryer
Good fryer, nice size, very easy to clean (has removal oil pan that can be placed in dishwasher); my only complaint is unit is kinda slow to reach desired temperature.

No timer on this deep fryer
I received the deep fryer and think it is a nice size and is easy to clean. I did notice that there is no timer on this model. I think that this type of household appliance should have some type of auto shut-off to prevent overheating. I would not recommend this to anyone. If I had known that there was no timer on this, I would not have bought it.
