    Got one. Very good - would recommend.

    • How many times would you use the same oil?

      ie How good is the "Automatic oil filtration system: automatically drains and filters the oil" of used oil and how long will it last?

        Depends personal taste but IMO part of the fish n chip experience is getting the flavour of old oil…

        I change it roughly every 3-5fry ups. Filter works good imo

          i get 10+ and only change as it gets old and oxidized rather than it gets dirty …..do you think kfc or maccas or hj change the oil, every few fries …..nope …….
          rice bran oil is great for deep fryers …..

    I've owned one for almost 2 years and it has been great. I only really filter the oil out after I fry up certain foods that leave a lot of crumbs in there but even then it doenst affect its performance much.

    Heating doesn't take too long.

    If you do decide to filter, ensure that you haven't got over the maximum oil recommendation.

    My purchase price was $150 in store at Myer

  • Same price at Hardly Normal pickup in store or $7.95 for delivery.

  • Thanks to whoever changed my title, it has free shipping too. I'm hoping it's a good one!

  • What, no air?

      The old classic trade-off between 'healthy food' and tasty food

    Better than an air fryer 🍟

    • hard to beat the laws of physics when it comes to air fryer and deep fryer ….deep fryer holds more thermal energy in the oil than an air fryer than does in air when you put your chips in the basket and it makes better contact in oil than using air ……

      • Woah garage sale; don't tell the mums on Facebook. They'll have your head.

        Can't look at someone who openly says "air fried is as good as deep fried foods", when realistically they can't even be compared as one is baked, and one is fried and I've never met a food that can be cooked via either that is better baked.

  • Had one of these years ago, would make the best tasting schnitzels! The only drag was cleaning it

    thanks OP bought one.

  • Highly recommended, plus we have a Philips air fryer.
    Great for Indian snacks/papadums.
