Overview
A 1700-watt stainless steel deep fryer with a 4-liter oil tank, triple basket set (one jumbo, two side-by-side), and a 60-minute timer for home batches of fried chicken, fish and chips.
The two small side-by-side baskets are the point of difference here, letting two foods with different cook times or smells go in the same tank without mixing. Multiple reviewers compare the build to Presto's ProFryer, suggesting a shared manufacturing design rather than a Secura original. One detailed complaint describes a difficult warranty experience after failure, worth weighing against the otherwise strong ratings.
- Jumbo basket plus two smaller baskets included
- See-through window in the lid
- Extra set of odor filters included
- Cool-touch stainless steel housing
Who it's for
Suits home cooks frying regularly for a family or small group who want split baskets and don't want to babysit a pot of oil on the stove. Not for anyone frying occasionally, since the 4-liter tank uses more oil than a single-basket fryer.
What buyers say
From Amazon customer reviews.
Reviewers consistently praise the split baskets for cooking two foods at once and say cleanup is straightforward since the oil tank lifts out. Several note it uses noticeably more oil than a smaller fryer. One detailed complaint describes the unit failing after warranty registration and a frustrating replacement process with the manufacturer.
