Overview
The Hamilton Beach 35220G is a 1500-watt electric deep fryer with a 3-liter (12-cup) oil capacity, a hooked frying basket for draining, and a magnetic cord that detaches if snagged.
- 3-liter (12-cup) oil capacity
- 1500-watt immersed heating element
- Temperature dial from 250 to 375 F
- Dishwasher-safe removable parts
Who it's for
Suits a household frying in batches for a family meal, where dishwasher-safe parts and a detachable cord for safety matter more than commercial-grade output. Not built for continuous high-volume frying, and reviews suggest checking that the reset button holds up before relying on it long-term.
What buyers say
From Amazon customer reviews.
Reviewers who fry regularly point to fast heat-up and quick recovery between batches as the main strength, along with easy cleanup and a compact size for storage. One buyer's unit stopped working after a single use, with the reset button reportedly broken, and another wished the lid could stay attached with the handle pointing down during storage.
Strengths and trade-offs
Drawn from this product's published specifications.
- Oil reheats quickly between frying batches
- Basket hook drains oil before serving food
- Magnetic cord detaches instead of tipping unit
- One unit reportedly stopped working after first use
- No storage position with lid on and handle down
