Dont buy this!!!
Date of Review: Jul 8, 2003
The Bottom Line: Not only did the fryer fall apart after 10 uses and had to be thrown out, Delonghi never returned my email or letter about the problem.
The fryer was cool to the touch and does have a nice look to it. When it worked it did fry food very well. However the pro's do not out way the cons in this particular case.
The fryer made a terrible mess with the oil which caused long clean up times. It was difficult to use and eventually fell apart after about 10 uses. The fryer started leaking oil all over the place so I threw it out due to the huge mess it was making.
I received one of these deep fryers (D895 UX Cool Touch Deep Fryer) as a housewarming gift several months ago. Not only did the fryer fall apart after 10 uses and had to be thrown out, Delonghi never returned my email or letter about the problem. Terrible customer service. I have never in my life had to deal with such an inferior, and poorly designed product as well as poor customer service.
This has been a total nightmare for me. Since I received this as a house warming gift I am not out the money, however you do expect a $140 deep fryer to last longer than 2 months and that they try and help me out when I had problems. Delonghi didnt care they already had there money. Avoid this company and all there products.
