Cons: None

Before I bought my Presto FryDaddy Deep Fryer Model #05420, I either baked the french fries, onion rings, shrimp, clams, and tater tots or wasted a whole cooking pot of oil to deep fry. Baking these items just didn?t have that taste of...

Cons: none

My husband loves French fries, and being well-aware of this, I got him a Presto FryDaddy for Father's Day (with my Hosiery Corp. of America gift certificates) about 10 years ago. He is still using it with excellent results.

It holds a large...

Pros: Easy, makes good food
Cons: Cord is too short

I have had my Fry Daddy for about a year now, and it works wonders.

For one, I use to just use a pot, and I would put too much oil, or not enough, and end up with spattering grease, or burnt food.

This has a level mark on it, so you...

Pros: Everything I cook is fabulous in the Fry Daddy.
Cons: Not cute. Not that safe. Messy. But worth it.

Cons: None I can think of

I absolutely love the Frydaddy. No joke, this is the most amazing tool that I've used or seen in a kitchen in years. You can make anything, and I in fact use it for at least 2 of my 3 meals every day. Have you ever thought of deep fried scrambled or...

Pros: Easy to use, warms up fast!
Cons: Makes mess

What can I say? This is an inexpensive, easy to use, good working, nifty little product that every kitchen should have (at least one of the sizes since there are several variations). When I was still living at home and Mom was cooking, she used a...
