After suffering with Kenwood's Total Clean fryer we bought this product because it seemed to answer all the faults of the other one. It has a totally removable rectangular lid - no latches or hinges to break or become gunged up. It's rectangular shape also makes for more convenient storage. It has two sturdy handles which make it much safer to move. It has a good length of power cord and a cord storage space which is fiddly but does the job. It has a mechanical timer and only operates when the timer is activated. When the timer returns to zero the unit switches off - so if you forget to do so the thing does not go on heating the oil. The basket is a good size and is easily removeable. The heating element can be completely removed for easy cleaning. The thermostat is very accurate and calibrated in temperature degrees rather than symbols, making it almost impossible to over-cook the food. The viewing window is large enough and situated at the front of the lid so that steaming up is less of a problem. I have been using mine for 3 months and have encountered none of the technical problems described by other reviewers. If you are looking for a good, efficient fryer - look no further.
With regard to the problem other reviewers have had with the on-off switch I would suggest a simple way to avoid it is to leave this switch on The timer has to be used to activate the unit and when it returns to zero it turns the heater off. Also you could merely turn it off at the mains.But I repeat.....five months of use and no problems so far.

Have had this fryer for 3 months and I'm very pleased with it.
It does take up a bit of space on the kitchen worktop and is quite heavy to move when filled with oil (cooled down of course)! But it is for your average family after all.
Viewing window is useless as it steams up when you lower food in.
Other than that, it's a decent product and great value for money.
TIP: If using sunflower oil, keep the temp to 160-170 degrees, otherwise you'll burn the oil and have a whiff around the room for a while after.

The switch on this product lasted a matter of a few weeks, as it did with another reviewer. A pity. It's well-designed and functional otherwise.

Having read other reviews about the on/off button, I have not used it, relying instead on the wall socket to switch the fryer on and off. Read more

I was very disappointed with this product. Although it fried food well the window steamed up every time and the steam seemed to take the control print off during overall use. Read more
