Product Description
Cool Daddy Deep Fryer
Amazon.com Review
With the right equipment, deep-fried food can be crisp and delicious instead of fat-logged and soggy. This Presto CoolDaddy electric deep fryer includes several features that help you make tasty fried chicken, fish, shrimp, and French fries for up to six people. Its adjustable thermostat ranges from 250 to 375 degrees F, and its bright red indicator light signals when the oil has reached the desired temperature so food cooks no longer than necessary. A viewing window lets you track progress without opening the cover, and an included wire basket with an exterior handle means you can prevent spatters by lowering food into hot oil with the lid down. Smart in structure, the fryer has a cool-touch exterior and a locking cover with a push-button latch for safety. Its anti-odor charcoal air filter removes without hassle, and the interior cooking pot is nonstick for quick cleanup. The wire interior basket features small holes--good for draining oil off while keeping small pieces in. Measuring approximately 13-1/2 by 10 by 11-1/2 inches, the cooker can be stored with the basket, handle, and cord inside. All parts should be washed by hand, and Presto includes a one-year warranty. --Emily Bedard

 Very Pleased July 22, 2010

Used this fryer the night it arrived. It worked as advertised. Oil heated quickly, temp indicator was spot on when checked with a digital thermometer, basket and lid kept mess to a minimum, and cleaned up easily. Exterior was just warm to the touch. Time will tell but this seems to be a well designed and manufactured product.
love it!!! July 17, 2010

great deep fryer. I like how you can lower the basket and cover at the same time so you don't get splattered.

This is about as basic of a bargain as you're going to find in any category. The features might seem pretty basic but they are obviously the result of years of feedback, simplification, and engineering. Only a couple of things keep it from being perfect (5 stars) for its category.
The good:
1. I love the way the top closes and opens. It has an extra strong spring for an auto-open feature. But you have to keep it from flipping open too quickly or the inertia of the lid with almost flip the thing over backwards. It won't really do that but you're likely to over-react because it will make you think it is going to when it happens. In any case, holding your hand over it when pushing the release button solves the problem nicely.
2. Food can be lowered into and lifted out of the oil without having to open the lid. This is an awesome feature that minimizes any oil splatters getting out onto you or your counter tops. Good work, Presto.
3. Nice window. The window on top of the unit is reasonably large and easy to see through.
4. Nice size. It holds just about 1/2 gallon of oil so a 1 gallon bottle will fill it twice. And the design makes it possible to cook most things with that amount. It will cook enough for two moderate eaters or one big single.
5. Handle is easy to grip. Instead of a regular horizontal handle, like a pot or pan has, there is a handle more like a big coffee mug. That is easy to grip and move around in a very stable manner.
6. Temperature control knob has a wide range. Goes from 250-375 over a 270 degree rotation.
The less good:
1. Lid flies open too fast.
2. Handle gets almost hot but still able to be handled.
3. No "OFF" position or switch. Unit must be unplugged to shut it off. But safety plug on rear makes that very easy.
4. No handle on oil tank. A little rotating handle like an old water pale would have worked nicely.
All in all though, I really like this fryer. Looks like it will be very easy to clean and maintain. It makes good fries, which will be its primary job.
Great Product but Smaller than Expected June 29, 2010

I love the new Presto Cooldaddy deep fryer. I cooked catfish fillets and the food came out crisp and delicious. The only problem that I had was that it doesn't hold six servings of food as the ad states. I placed four fillets in the basket, and the food stuck to the basket. I had difficulty getting the fish out and had to scrape the basket to get the coating off. The food tasted good, but some places were a little unevenly cooked. The next time I fried two catfish fillets at a time and they came out perfect. Crispy and golden brown and delicious. I also cooked frozen french fries, and they cooked in about 10-12 minutes. Be careful and make sure the plug is inserted properly. My plug kept coming out and I was afraid the fryer would stop heating. My mistake. Just make sure the plug is securely attached to the fryer before you begin cooking. If you are cooking for a family, you will need two of these fryers going at once. I wish Presto made a larger capacity deep fryer in the Cooldaddy. Overall I love this product, I just wish it was a little larger.
