Our verdict

A small deep fryer sized for a couple of servings of fries or nuggets. The listing offers little beyond capacity and power, so check controls and accessories with the maker.

Overview

Presto makes the FryDaddy as a compact electric fryer with an aluminum body. A small oil capacity means less oil to buy and store, and a light frame is easy to move.

It suits tiny kitchens and solo cooks who want crisp food occasionally. The limit is size, with room for only a small batch, and the listing says nothing about a basket, timer or temperature dial.

Who it's for

Singles, couples and dorm cooks fit the small capacity. A household that fries often or for a group needs a larger model.

Pros and cons

Pros
  • Compact for small kitchens
  • Little oil needed
  • Lightweight at under four pounds
Cons
  • Small oil capacity
  • Controls and basket not described

Performance notes

Heating comes from the electric element in the base, and recovery after adding food depends on how much food enters the small oil volume. Frying in small portions limits how far the oil cools.
