 Great fun! February 1, 2010

This fryer was recommended by friends before I purchased it as gift for future son in law. He (and his friends) just love it. Really spins out the grease. Secret to cleaning....after emptying oil, soak basket in hot soapy water overnight. Don't let food dry on basket! The unit is heavy, but if you are going to have hot grease spinning around, that weight is a good thing.
 Spin out the oil. January 21, 2010
Keith J. Morse (Madisonville, La.)
Just so you aren't in the dark on this purchase. The fryer is easy to take apart and clean. It does spin the oil out as advertised. My complaints are: The frying basket is a bit small so your not going to get a lot in it. You don't want to stack items either because they won't be submerged in the oil. However it does fry fairly quickly. You can fit three chicken strips in it at a time. The other issue is that the basket has to fit perfectly on the center shaft in order for it to go back in the fryer. It has a tendency to stick and you have to sometimes turn the basket so it can go down. Burned the tip of my fingers trying to line it up with shaft. The basket stays pretty hot for a while so use caution when handling. All in all I still like the fryer. In order to increase the size of the basket this thing would have to be as big as a small microwave and if it were that big I wouldn't want it. Hope this aids in your decission.
Love this fryer January 10, 2010

This fryer is an excellent product; I am so glad I bought this for my wife. I have eaten food from other home deep fryers and this tastes just as good if not better. However, this fryer exceeds other fryers due to the simple (why didn't anyone think of this before?) spin process at the end. We always dab our fried foods with paper towels at the end to soak up some of the grease, there is always some except with this fryer. We are unable to get any grease to soak up with a paper towel because there seemingly is none.
I would say our only complaint is the clumsiness of the sliding frying basket. The plastic track that you slide the basket up and down in is too easy to miss when inserting the basket leaving you wondering why it isn't catching like you are supposed to. Also the button has almost no feedback to it so you can't tell if you have pushed hard enough and you end up lifting and accidentally lifting the whole fryer because you haven't pressed hard enough.
Overall this product is absolutely excellent and having to pay a little closer attention to how you handle the basket isn't enough of a detriment to consider this product any less. All we have tried so far is frozen fries and cheese sticks, I can't wait until we can make home made fries and try that.
Very nice product. December 15, 2009

The family fryer broke so I did some research and decided to spend a little more on the Foreman Smart Spin. It is a very nice fryer and I would recommend this unit to those looking for a quality fryer. The only downside I can come up with is sometimes the basket does not easily seat back into the fryer so you have to work at it. Overall, the unit is a great idea and a great product.
It really works! December 11, 2009

Keep in mind, this is my first deep fryer so I have no basis to compare, but this fryer is awesome. Been using it once a week for about a month now and very satisfied with the results. As reviewed before the basket is on the smaller side but I make smaller batches anyway as not to waste food. The heat recovery time is pretty fast so it's not a problem. I don't save the oil since I only use it once a week and I've only used peanut oil with good results. I've made french fries, croquettes, onion rings, yucca fries, and egg rolls and they have all come out crispy with little to no obvious oil. Clean up isn't all that bad, don't trust my wife so I do it myself. It does takes a long time to cool down before I can clean it but tearing it down is pretty simple and the pot is the only thing that really gets washed. I will say it does feel pretty cheap in terms of materials used versus the cost but I guess thses things were never made to last forever. I follow the instructions on the food packages and tweak the setting with each batch if necessary. The spinning part does work to spin out the oil but I have found that the high setting is only appropriate with very sturdy food like fries. Other than that the low setting seems to do the trick regardless. All in all I like the fryer and the results it has produced.
