DeLonghi D895UX Cool Touch Roto Deep Fryer

Pros: Taste, minimal oil, quick

Cons: Fried food is never good for you!

The Bottom Line: If you must fry, do it the healthy way!

Review: Normally, I am on a fried food ban...I hate feeling sluggish and unhealthy, but after trying french fries at one of my friends home with the DeLonghi Cool Touch Roto Deep Fryer, I decided to buy one of my own! My kids love fried food, but I...

Pros: Good concept in frying, cool oil drainage system.

Cons: Rotation problems,length of cooking times off are off.

The Bottom Line: If you can't spell s-k-i-l-l-e-t, and can't stand the lingering smells in your kitchen--then buy it. Otherwise, just take out the old cast iron skillet and go for it.

Review: I read the reviews...I bought the deep fryer...It rotated for my first batch of chicken...then stopped! Now, while the fryer is cooling off (so I can drain the oil)--so am I (cooling off, that is).

I'm a southern girl who can fry some...

Pros: rotating basket, temperature control, thermostat light, easy drain system

Cons: none at all

The Bottom Line: It really makes frying easier and cleaner. What a thrill to cook things and get them done right the first time and every time!

Review: The deep fryer I had was already hitting its 10 birthday. Yes it still worked, but it looked like it was 10 years old. I felt I was ready for a new one.

With so many on the market, I wanted one that would make my life easier but did such a...

Pros: Easy cleaning, fries evenly

Cons: Too expensive, lasted only a year with average use of once every 3 weeks

Review: Deep fryer worked great for about one year. Now it will not heat the oil. It was not worth the price I paid.

Pros: Please consider the cost of replacement filters before you buy.

Cons: One pack of replacement filters can cost as much as $32.00 plus $4.50 for shipping!

Review: Although DeLonghi makes a good deep fryer, please consider the cost of replacement filters before you buy. DeLonghi replacement filters do not last very long and they are not easy to find. If you buy them directly from DeLonghi America, one pack of...

Pros: This fryer did fry food very well while it worked. Cool to the touch.

Cons: Temperature was not accurate. Durability was poor. All around functionality poor. Difficult to clean.

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.

Review: 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...

Pros: Rotates food, cleans up easily, easy to use

Cons: none so far

The Bottom Line: Glad to have this as part of my kitchen tool kit. It works really well and adds a new dimension to my cooking

Review: This is a good kitchen tool. I'm glad I bought it but I must admit I'm just learning what to cook and not cook in it. Being vegetarian I really wanted to make deep fried tofu but learned you need to use the kind that's extra firm or you need to dry...

Pros: It heats quick and is durable

Cons: NONE!

Review: Excellent Fryer!!! I love the money and calorie savings you get with this spinning basket!! It is VERY easy to clean too! Makes donuts and chicken w/ease! It heats quick and I have had mine for 3 mos w/no problems!

Pros: Cooks evenly, safe to use and less messy than the conventional "fryer".

Cons: Fogged up view window and possible steam burns.

The Bottom Line: Go to Amazon.com and type in Delonghi Fryers in the search. This model is the "Cool Touch"...they have a nice photo of it there.

Review: Okay...so no biggie...but it is fun to make a batch of fresh tortilla chips now. In fact....deep frying anything is a piece of cake. Donuts, burritos, chicken, french fries and more....we have cooked them all in the Delonghi Deep Fryer.

...

Pros: Perfect size. Adjustable temp controls. Digital timer. Oil drainage, filtering, storage. Hinged lid. Rotating basket.

Cons: Breakaway cord can be a bit sensitive.

Review: After more than 15 years of loyal service, we finally had to replace our old DeLonghi Roto Deep Fryer and were delighted to find that they still made them...with improvements. It took us a while to find what we consider the perfect replacement,...
