DISAPPOINTED OVER ITEMS RECEIVED
I ORDERED THIS COOKER SPECIFICALLY FOR THE VERSATILY OF HAVING THE TURKEY FRYER ITEMS AND THE FISH FRY ITEMS. CONTACTED AMAZON REGARDING THE DISCREPANCY BUT THAT WAS NOT THE ANSWER. THEY ENDED UP SENDING ME ANOTHER FRYER WHICH WAS THE SAME ONE WITHOUT THE ADDITIONAL ITEMS AS THE FIRST. THE CUSTOMER SERVICE REP JUST DIDN'T SEEM TO UNDERSTAND WHAT I WAS STATING ABOUT THE MISREPRESENTATION. I GUESS I WILL END UP KEEPING THE FRYER, SINCE IT SEEMS TO BE THE CHEAPEST ONE I WAS ABLE TO FIND IN THE STORES AND THE ALUMINUM SEEMS TO BE OF A HEAVIER GAUGE THEN I HAVE SEEN ALSO. AMAZON, ONE SUGGESTION: IT WOULD BE GREAT TO HAVE THE OPTION TO SPEAK WITH SOMEONE LIVE WHENEVER YOU HAVE AN ISSUE, AND ALSO TO HAVE IT CLEARLY INDICATED HOW YOU CONTACT CUSTOMER SERVICE, SINCE I BECAME EXTREMELY FRUSTRATED TRYING TO FIND THE INFORMATION ON THE WEBSITE FOR APPROXIMATELY 30 MINS, ESPECIALLY SINCE THIS IS MY FIRST TIME USING AMAZON.



Great price and very durable Im impressed
I have always wanted a turkey fryer but they was to spendy and at this price I had to get it although I was a litte reluctant buying it off the internet then I received it not only was I happy with it,I was also relieved that I didnt get ripped off with Another internet scam(Thats why I ordered through Amazon,so I would be safe from fraud)Anyway I havent yet fried my turkey but I know that they will taste great!!!!!!



Great for stew
I purchased one of these cookers at a grocery store for thanksgiving. I didn't find out that amazon carried this brand until I went to the manufacturers website looking for the 10.5 quart fish cooker. I haven't deep fried a turkey and probably won't. My main use will be cooking Brunswick stew and chili in large quantities for freezing and cooking fish and chicken wings. I'm considering getting a wok.
I am very pleased with this cooker and would recommend it to any one wanting to use this for the reasons I use it for. It should also cook a turkey real well. The aluminum pot (and lid) is very heavy gauge thickness and the burner seemed to have a great deal of heat. The pot cleaned up just by spraying with the kitchen sink sprayer. I had to keep turning down the burner to get to a slow boil on my stew. A bottle of gass should last a long time. The 30 qt. pot was half full at the time. I can see how you could do some damage with one of these if you leave some oil unattended.
The burner had two loose phillips screws from shipping and I hand tightened those. The stand and burner assembly are of sturdy construction. Assembly instructions are well documented with photos. I started to return for a cheaper model at Target but I'm glad I didn't. It's a great cooker even though some folks were mislead by some ad listings.
I would buy again.



Misleading Advertisement
Just received this item purchased on 11/21, Unfortunately at that time there were no reviews on it.
Again as previous reviews state:
Item is not a Professional Outdoor Cooker as listed Still, but a Commercial Grade Cooker; this printed right on the box.
Features have now been changed, Orginally stated included with an aluminum basket and fish fry pot & basket. I received the items as listed now. All in All it does appear to be a nice cooker, but I bought it for the versitiliy of the features listed previously. Contacting Customer Service on this Misleading Advertisement.




Item not as described
As was the case with the previous reviewer, I did not receive the item that was described. It is not a Professional Outdoor Cooker but a Commercial grade cooker. In addition, there are no baskets included. This set-up might be fine for frying a turkey but would not work for frying fish without additional equipment. What you'll get is what is shown in the picture - not what is described.
