Presto 05444 CoolDaddy Cool Touch Deep Fryer

Pros: Easy to use, food tastes great!

Cons: Fryer basket could be bigger.

The Bottom Line: This is a wonderful appliance; once you get one you will never cook frozen french fries in the oven again!

Review: I received the Cool Daddy Cool-Touch Deep Fryer as a Christmas gift and it is fast becoming one of my favorite kitchen appliances. At first I was a little nervous, having never used a deep fryer before. After I got going, however, my comfort...

Pros: cooks food evenly and quickly, cleans up well.

Cons: is not "cool" to the touch but manageable.

The Bottom Line: Overall I am happy with my Cooldaddy, but disappointed that it is not "cool" to the touch as stated.

Review: I have wanted one of those Fry Daddy’s for a long time! I have a nice size 3-quart pot that I keep on my stove for frying foods in. It is a really nice pot to say the least but, sometimes I need it for other things, so it can be a little inconvenient ...

Pros: Quick to heat up, easy to use, heats evenly, stays cool.

Cons: Somewhat large.

The Bottom Line: If you're looking to deep fry some donuts, or french fries, or shrimp, or anything else, this is the one to get.

Review: Recently I decided to delve further into the wonderful world of baking by making traditional paczki (donuts). I asked my mother to borrow her very old, antiquated deep fryer, since I didn't have one and wasn't sure if I wanted to invest. After...

Pros: Great overall deep fryer, large capacity

Cons: Basket is not for use with everything.

The Bottom Line: Try this one out, you will love it. You may just start deep frying more often.

Review: I recently purchased this deep fryer while in my local department store in the mall. I had never seen one like it and was intrigued. I had a friend with me, and we were checking it out from top to bottom. It also happened to be on sale for 39.00,...

Pros: Nice styling, cool exterior, removable basket,exterior basket handle

Cons: Not fun to clean

The Bottom Line: The Cool Daddy has a mix of price and features that make it worth considering.It's a prospect worthy of your shopping list.

Review: Howdy pardners,

I been a hankerin’ to write about our new fangled Presto Cool Daddy Cool Touch Deep Fryer ever since I plopped down 40 greenbacks fer it at the Macy’s General Store well nigh a year back. . It were on sale and they give...

Pros: Does a great job of frying, exterior stays cool, very easy to use.

Cons: A little difficult to clean

The Bottom Line: If you like fried foods, this deep fryer is for you. You will definitely get your money's worth!

Review: Both my boyfriend and I have taken a interest in cooking. Eating out every night was not only expensive, the quality of the food wasn't that great. One of the kitchen appliances we decided to pick up was a deep fryer.

I grew up watching my...

Pros: I LIKED THE FACT THAT THE POT IS REMOVABLE FOR CLEANING

Cons: THE WINDOW STEAMS UP

The Bottom Line: I AM VERY SATISFIED SO FAR, AND WILL TELL OTHERS ABOUT IT

Review: I HAVE BEEN TO MANY STORES LOOKING FOR A DEEP FRYER WITH A REMOVABLE POT.

THERE WERE A COUPLE WITHA REMOVABLE POT, BUT THE PRICE WAS AT LEAST 30.00 HIGHER. SO I DECIDED TO TAKE A CHANCE ON THE PRESTO. AT A RETAIL OF UNDER 50.00, I...

Pros: It may take 45 minutes, but I can finally make restaurant-quality fried foods.

Cons: Poorly designed -- most of the really cool features ended up being unusable.

The Bottom Line: If you don't mind high-maintenance frying (a few items at a time, fishing them out with a spoon) this item works fine. Don't buy this for its extra features.

Review: I have not used other fryers before, so I don't have too much to compare this one to. I received this one as a gift and have been using it very often in spite of what I see as some pretty major design flaws.

The directions for this fryer...

Pros: easy to clean, no smell

Cons: very small compartment, not made for big meals

The Bottom Line: Great for making small portions of certain things, not for french fries...very easy to clean.

Review: First of all, I was born in Belgium where french fries are a staple. My mom makes french fries at least twice a week and when I got this as a gift I was very excited cause I could finally make them like my mom did. I read the directions on how to do...

Pros: Easy to use, less smelly due to filter.

Cons: Cleaning takes WAY too much time, cant see through the viewing window (really fogs up).

The Bottom Line: It's UNSANITARY unless you go out of your way to clean it every 5-6 uses. Oil buildsup in crevices and it's almost impossible to clean. More hassle than it's worth.

Review: Alright... its better than the traditional FRYDADDY, but still needs improvement.

First, the pro's.
1~~~Nice Design-it is sleek looking and easy to store when not in use.
2~~~Very Easy To Use-instructions are simple and item comes...
