Euro-Pro F1045 1-1/2-Liter Stainless-Steel Deep Fryer Review

Euro-Pro F1045 1-1/2-Liter Stainless-Steel Deep FryerThis fryer had everything I wanted:a nice basket you could let drain easily before removing the hot food, reasonable balance of capacity vs. oil usage, and the thermostat/timer combination proved quite versatile.And it worked acceptably for about six months.At first the main problem was the two-piece handle kept slipping apart, which got me burnt more than once.And then one day it just stopped working altogether.I believe may have been due to a problem with the odd power connector on the unit, which was troublesome from day one.You'll find multiple reports of the same issues on the very similar Euro-Pro F1042 Compact 2-Cup Stainless-Steel Deep Fryer and the Deni 9301 Mini 840-Watt 1-1/4-Quart Stainless-Steel Deep Fryer, both of which share several parts (including the power connector) with this model.

Deni 9301 Mini 840-Watt 1-1/4-Quart Stainless-Steel Deep Fryer Review

Deni 9301 Mini 840-Watt 1-1/4-Quart Stainless-Steel Deep FryerThe Deni 9301 Mini fryer sorta works but not really.

On the plus side, the product is nicely styled, compact, has an adjustable thermostat, heating indicator light, fry basket, lid that can be placed on the oil tank while the fryer is still hot, and after a fasion it does function as a deep fryer for one or two people.

On the minus side, the thermostat only goes to 375 degrees which is not hot enough for crisp frying.The fryer is very lightly built so there is not enough mass in the oil tank to hold the heat when you emerse food in the oil.If you emerse a half basket of frozen french fries at an oil temperature of 375 degrees, the oil temperature will quickly drop to around 250 degrees and not recover much beyond 300 degrees before the fries are done.This results in soggy french fries. The fryer is slow to recover oil temperature between frying batches which makes cooking a second batch of something a protracted event.The handle on the fry basket has to be removed for storage rather than just folded.The oil will not pour out of the fryer without dripping because of the design of the oil tank lip.

Overall I would rate the Deni 9301 as a step in the right direction but it is in need of significant redesign to make it an effective product for its intended use.I wish I still had my 26 year old Oster mini fryer that finally gave up the ghost after many years of faithful service.The Oster was a far better product than the Deni 9301.Given how lightly the Deni 9301 mini fryer is built, I seriouly doubt it will be around very long.In good faith, I cannot recommend this product to anyone.The Deni 9301 is an improvement over nothing but it does not perform its intended mission very well.
