Overview

Not a family-size fryer, this Chefman is a compact stainless steel model for a small kitchen, apartment or dorm. The basket lifts out of the nonstick pot, and the exterior stays cool enough to touch while frying.

Small footprint and a controllable thermostat are the reason to look at it for fries, rings and doughnuts. The limitation is batch size, since one liter of oil limits how much goes in at once, and temperatures are not listed.

Who it's for

Singles and couples who fry a small portion of fries or doughnuts occasionally can use the compact body. Households feeding four or more should buy a larger fryer to avoid cooking in many rounds.

Pros and cons

Pros
  • Adjustable temperature dial
  • Nonstick coating for cleanup
  • Lid and user guide included
Cons
  • Small batch size
  • Temperature range not listed
  • Short one year warranty

Performance notes

The element heats the oil and the dial sets the target temperature, so crispness depends on the oil being hot enough when food goes in. A small oil volume loses heat fast when cold food is added, so cooking in small batches gives better browning.
