Customer Reviews:

• Fantastic
  Tried this product twice. It's a great fryer. Would tell everyone to buy one. The DeLonghi D14522DZ is the best I have ever used. Cleans easily....more info
• time saving clean-up a great plus
  a very good value for the price; the oil-draining spigot is a real plus for saving time while filtering and draining the oil for storage....more info
• Didn't work from the time I took it out of the box
  The magnetic plug is awful. I took it out of the box, cleaned it, put in the oil to the max line and tried to plug it in. First the magnetic plug is touchy. If you just bump it, it falls off of the unit. My plug didn't work, it just won't make a connection. If it was a normal plug, the fryer probably would have worked. I now have to drain out my oil, reclean it up and send it back. Find a until that has a regular plug not a magnetic plug....more info
• AWESOME deep fryer!
  I bought this deep fryer to replace my old one that was taking way too long to deep fry anything.
  This one is soooo much better; heats fast; stays hot and just works great! Clean up is a breeze; just through everything but the element in the dishwasher; so it always looks just like new....more info
• A Prized asset to my Kitchen
  This is my 5th deep fryer. None of the ones I've had before can hold a candle to this one. It is all the manufacturer says it is. The stainless steel 'bowl' is a dream to clean. The ability to drain the 'bowl' through a spigot makes saving the oil a pleasure. I'm sure I will never have to buy another deep fryer again. The stainless steel construction (as opposed to aluminum for all the ones I've had before), and easy cleaning allow me to use this one a lot more frequently than others allowed. The heating element located slightly above the bottom of the 'bowl' does in fact provide a cool area below the heating element. ...more info
• Works as Advertised
  We've only had it for about a month now, but so far I have no complaints about this fryer. Temperature control seems good, construction is sturdy and overall it's been very easy to work with and has produced good results (both for things savory and sweet)....more info

• delonghi deep frier

• Messy
  This product has good and bad aspects. First the good. It stays heated very well and cooks your food crispy and to perfection. It is a very good size for families and looks nice. The bad is that I don't have a dishwasher so it is a bit of a pain to clean. Since it has an immersion heating system you must take that out and clean it by hand even if you do have a dishwasher. Also the one I bought and just received TODAY leaked oil from the bottom. I am not sure if this is just a fluke in the one that I received but I will be sending it back anyway because it is TOO big for just 2 people and a pain in the rear to clean. Overall it is a great machine but not what I was hoping for....more info
• Good little fryer that fits the bill on Football Sundays
  I used this little baby about 12 out of the 17 weeks of the NFL season. It does wings (and boneless) quickly. It doesn't use oil that quickly (getting dirty) and the food tastes great. I recommend this product....more info
• Compact and efficient
  I bought this deep fryer to replace an ancient Tefal unit that had finally gotten too gross to use. The DeLonghi deep fryer suprised me initially, because it is so much smaller and lighter than the Tefal, but it has turned out to be a great appliance for me -- although I'm not cooking for a family, the capacity is at least as good as the Tefal it replaced.
  
  The best thing about the DeLonghi is that it is much easier to drain when cooking is over, and so much easier to clean that it's difficult to credit. The deep frying unit is an immersion heater rather than a built-in heat supply and the entire deep fryer breaks down into components that are very easy to wash thoroughly. There are no hinges or any other crannies to trap grease.
  
  It also has a very nice temperature control unit, with far more settings than the Tefal had. The only downside I've found was that the magnetically-attached power cord had a tendency to fall off when I first used it, resulting in a batch of chicken wings sitting for a long time in cooling oil. Now that I've gotten the hang of it, there have been no more problems....more info

• Simple, but efficient
  The unit is easy to set up and use. It doesn't have a lot of extra features, but it really cooks the heck out of fries and tater tots.
  
  The dual zone works great at preserving your oil. The little bits and pieces that fall off sink to the bottom, and do not stay in the heated area, which would cause smoking and oil deterioration.
  
  Draining the oil was easy, too. Just position a large enough container below the fryer, open the little door (which seems to have a hard time staying closed), and open the valve to drain the oil. Wipe out the crumbs from the bottom of the pan, refill and you are back in business.
  
  This model lacks a timer, but I really didn't notice that when I was cooking up loads of stuff for us....more info
• Too Big and Plug is in bad spot
  This unit definately has more than one flaw. Be aware that this is a pretty large appliance to have sitting on your counter. It is fairly deep for a home counter. Also, the electrical plug comes strait out of the back of the heating unit, so this increases the depth of the fryer. The other issue is the sensor on the heating unit where it attaches to the oil pan. As stated in the other comments, if this is not seated properly, the unit shuts off. So if you don't have LOTS of depth on your counter, the electrical plug bumps into the wall, and unseats the heating unit just slightly and the fryer shuts off. This happens ALOT. The unit is very easy to clean though....more info
• Great Deep Fryer
  I purchased this about 3 weeks ago. Used it for the first time last night. It was easy to set up, easy to read markings on the inside for oil fill levels. Green light lights up when oil is at temperature. I checked the temp with my thermometer and it was within 7 to 10 degrees of the temperature I set.
  We made fried chicken strips, they were crispy and not a trace of grease to be tasted. Even left over cold for lunch today they were great. Cleanup was a breeze, I used a roasting pan placed upside down on the counter near the sink, placed fryer on top of roasting pan, put the empty oil jug in the sink and drained the used oil back into the jug for another use later. All of this was done after the oil had cooled so as not to melt the plastic jug. The entire fryer then comes apart so the parts can be washed or wiped down. Great Fryer. Highly recommended.
  
  My husband now wants to fry oysters and shrimp for the Superbowl this weekend. YumYum can't wait!!...more info
• Worked fine twice then stopped working at all
  This was a gift and we only used it twice, to make Rosettes, a dainty scandinavian Christmas cookie. So I wasn't even that hard on the thing. When we tried to start it up this last Christmas to make the cookies it wouldn't turn on. I jiggled the heating device and it would turn on only briefly. Looks to be an electronic issue....more info
• My new kitchen toy!!!!
  We are a family of five. My Fry Daddy was just not big enough to handle our frying needs for us in a timely manner. I wanted something bigger that was efficient and easy to clean. I checked out several fryers and even purchased a different one(Aroma Brand I think). I ended up returning it because the first time I tried to use it it would not heat up. I settled on this one and it has been wonderful. It heats up and because it is a bigger fryer, it has cut down my frying time by at least half the time it normally took me. It has also been very easy to clean with the drain in the front. I would recommend this to anyone!!! It is great!!!!...more info
