Product Description
Product Description
The Magimix deep fryer has a Cool Zone feature. It is fitted with a 3 loop submerged heating element which allows faster and more accurate temperature control. The Cool zone ensures the oil below the element does not heat to above 65 degrees meaning that any food that falls below the element will stop cooking thus reducing kitchen smells and prolonging the oil life. Treat your family and friends to vegetable crisps, apple fitters, exotic dishes and of course, french fries

Thought I'd bite the bullet, invest in a proper deep fat fryer and make 'proper' fish and chips. The Magimix Pro 500 looked the part and of course with the Magimix reputation it was a no brainer. I wish now that I'd looked a little deeper. Then I might have realised that it doesn't reach the magic 190 degrees needed to fry properly so is in fact not a deep fat fryer, just a deep fat thingy. In fact it doesn't even reach the max 180 degrees shown on the control knob. I tested it with a proper cooks jam thermometer and the most I could get out of it was 170 degrees. I did manage to cook battered fish and chips but they were not the crispy kind that anything called a deep fat fryer should have been capable of delivering.
I wish now that I'd invested my money in a decent pan and a basket and stuck to doing deep frying the old fashioned way. I'd advise anyone who wants to deep fry to get a decent thermometer and avoid this product. Just be careful, at least the Magimix won't cause a chip pan fryer so be extra careful if you do it the old fashioned way with a thermometer.

I did a lot of research to find the ultimate consumer deep fryer money could buy.
Magimix Fryer came up at the top. However, after reading a couple of negative reviews about this product on Amazon.co.uk, I started to doubt my selection. Both these reviews highlighted a major flaw; poor calibration.
Later on, I found a newer version of the same fryer; the Pro 500. I took my chances and bought one.
Oh Boy! This has turned out to be an awesome machine! The thermostat, timer and calliberation work spot on.
The only criticism is the UK model does not come with a lid with a built-in filter, as the French one does. I am still struggling to procure a lid with the filter in it.
HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!!! YOU WONT GO WRONG WITH THIS!!!!
