4 out of 5 stars Works great, but paint burns...   April 14, 2008
AA in CA (Hercules, CA USA)
Bought this in anticipation of having a crawfish boil. Ended up trying it out as a deep fryer a couple of weekends before (fried a 16 lb turkey and some other random things). It worked great! We then had the crawfish boil, and again it worked wonderfully. As an outdoor cooker, I had no problems with it at all.

I had read some of the reviews about assembly problems and parts not fitting or breaking, but this went together effortlessly. I did end up using my own ratcheting wrench to put it together as the location of the nuts made it difficult to use the small wrench provided in the kit, but I imagine one could assemble it with their wrench.

My only complaint is the paint on the base. A good portion of it burned as we first fired it up, which gave off a horrid stench and some black smoke, which ended up staining the sides of the aluminum pot. After about 15 minutes it was gone. The base now looks like it is 5 years old and worn, as opposed to only 1 month, but what are looks when it works great? I'd still highly recommend this item.



1 out of 5 stars Too much trouble and costly   January 18, 2008
0 out of 1 found this review helpful

Item was purchased at a good price but once you add up the cost of the oil and fresh turkey I was looking at a price way out of line. It took about an hour to put it together another hour plus to get it to light. The directions said it would take about 15 - 20 mins to heat the oil - wrong! about 45. Once again I followed the cooking directions exactly and the turkey was not completetly cooked. And the clean up - was a pain - what to do with all that oil!! Never again.

Fantastic product! I have used it twice already and am going to fry another turkey on Christmas. Good Quality, great price, tons of extras. The only thing I regret is not buying a pot with the drain spigot in the bottom ( the pot gets a little heavy when pouring the oil back into the jug!). Other than that A+ all the way around.

I purchased this because I wanted to try and fry a Turkey for Thanksgiving. The day before I put it all together. It was so easy to use and came with all the gadgets I needed. We fried the Turkey and I received so many compliments. No problems, No accidents, Just a great, user-friendly fryer, especially for beginners!
