Overview
Two independent frying tanks define the Crosson CF-20, a countertop deep fryer rated at 3400 watts with a German-made EGO thermostat reviewers describe as holding temperature within about 7 degrees. Each tank has a removable 304 stainless steel oil container, a wire mesh basket, and a swing-up fryer head for drainage and cleaning.
Running two separate tanks means two oils or two foods can fry independently without one batch tainting the other, which one reviewer used specifically to run the fryer continuously for 10 hours a day in a restaurant. That said, at least one buyer found the actual unit noticeably smaller than expected from the listing, so it's worth confirming the oil capacity fits your batch sizes before buying.
- 3400W total heating output
- Wire mesh basket, cool-touch handle
- Swing-up head for easy drainage
- Cool zone extends oil life ~20%
Who it's for
Home cooks and small food operations wanting two independent frying tanks rather than one, particularly for keeping oils or foods separate, are well served here. Buyers expecting genuinely high-volume, 20-lb batch capacity should double check the actual tank size against their needs first.
What buyers say
From Amazon customer reviews.
Buyers who used it daily, including in a restaurant setting, praised the build quality, fast heat-up, and stable temperature during frying, though one restaurant user found that turning the dial to maximum temperature triggers the protection shutoff and had to run it slightly below max. One buyer called the unit too small compared to what Amazon's listing suggested and returned it.
Strengths and trade-offs
Drawn from this product's published specifications.
- Two independent tanks for separate foods or oils
- Stable temperature via EGO thermostat
- Removable stainless tanks, easy to clean
- Held up to 10-hour daily restaurant use
- Max temp setting can trigger overload shutoff
- One buyer found it smaller than expected
- Oil capacity per tank is modest at 4.5 liters
Performance notes
The EGO thermostat is reported to hold temperature within about 7 degrees, and the 3400-watt heating element brings the tanks up to frying temperature quickly, even without oil in one buyer's test. Running the dial all the way to maximum can trigger the fryer's overload protection and shut it down, so one long-term restaurant user runs it slightly below max instead. The swing-up head and removable stainless tanks are built for draining oil and cleaning between uses, and a cool zone at the tank bottom is meant to catch food particles and extend oil life.

Questions about the crosson CROSSONCF-20
Common buyer questions answered straight from the product spec data - no fluff, no "it depends".
Does the Crosson CF-20 have one tank or two?
It has dual tanks, each with its own removable stainless steel oil container, allowing two batches or oils to be run independently.
What happens if I set the Crosson fryer to maximum temperature?
One long-term user reports that turning the dial all the way up can trigger the fryer's overload protection and shut it down, so running it slightly below max avoids that.
Is the Crosson CF-20 fryer suitable for restaurant use?
One reviewer reports running it 10 hours a day in a restaurant setting successfully by keeping the temperature slightly below maximum.
