What Others Say
Great deep fryer!!
I come from the land of the fries, Belgium! We still make them with fresh sliced patatoes, two times fried, so when we moved to the US it was a big thing finding the right fryer, but we did. Excellent tool for use in the kitchen. Does what it needs to do.
Great Product
This is wonderfull. It is large enough for my family of 5, easy to clean and cooks quickly. The only problem I have is the plug falls off the back because it is a magnet. I realize this is for safety but you cannot move it without it falling out.
AWESOME PRODUCT
This is the best deep fryer that I had. I have it for over two years now. No problems at all. Yes, cleaning it can be a bit challenging, but Waring Pro DF250 1800-Watt 2-1/5-Pound-Capacity Deep Fryer, Brushed Stainless is worth it!!! I had other deep fryers that could not work as well as this one

* Basket is broad and deep allowing you to spread out food and ensure everything is submerged.
* Sides stay cool, avoiding burns.
* Cleaver lid virtually eliminates splatter.
* Mechanical/analog controls are less prone to failure than electronic/digital ... Read More
Waring Pro DF250
A little disappointed in Waring Pro DF250 1800-Watt 2-1/5-Pound-Capacity Deep Fryer, Brushed Stainless. The basket is a little shallow. Also, I checked the oil temperature with an analog and digital thermometer and it only heats up to 325F. Its off by 50 degrees at its highest setting and is slow to recover when food is inserted.
