Product Description

Amazon.com Product Description

Quickly and easily cook up fried food at home with this double-capacity deep fryer. The versatile unit provides one extra-large basket for cooking up to 6 pounds of food, as well as two smaller side-by-side frying baskets that can be used instead for cooking two different types of food simultaneously. Use the deep fryer to make a variety of classic favorites like chicken nuggets, fish sticks, French fries, and onion rings--even homemade doughnuts. The simple-to-use countertop appliance comes equipped with an enameled oil tank that provides min/max indicators for proper filling from 14 to 20 cups, along with an immersible heating element, which helps ensure consistent, accurate heating and professional results every time. A digital control panel on the top of the unit makes it possible to select from 10 preprogrammed settings, adjust the temperature from 300 degrees F to 375 degrees F (in 5 degree increments), and set the cook time between 2 minutes and 30 minutes (in 30 second increments). The control panel also offers a simple on/off button, an increase/decrease time/temp button, a heat indicator light, and a power indicator light. Other highlights include charcoal filters to reduce odors (two included), drain hooks for attaching the baskets to the side of the unit for convenient draining, a magnetic plug and a short power cord for safety, and an overheat sensor with automatic shut-off for added safety and peace of mind. A handy user manual comes included, complete with delicious recipe ideas for deep-fried onion blossoms, vegetarian egg rolls, fried jumbo shrimp, cheese fritters, fried bananas, and more. Housed in durable stainless steel with a large glass viewing window and black cool-touch handles, the programmable deep fryer measures approximately 14-2/5 by 11 by 17-3/5 inches and carries a one-year limited warranty.

5.0 out of 5 stars Buy this fryer!, June 3, 2009
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Aroma ADF-212 Smart Fry XL Digital Dual-Basket Deep Fryer (Kitchen)
I was formerly a professional cook. I worked in restaurants and catering for 17 years. A person gets spoiled cooking with good equipment at work. It can be disappointing to go home and try to cook with standard household equipment, both in efficiency and results. I try to buy the best kitchen equipment I can afford.

When I chose this fryer, I deliberated for days. When it arrived and I examined the device, I was pretty sure I had chosen wisely. The heating elements and mechanisms reminded me of a small scale restaurant quality fryer.

The first time we used it, we had a fish fry for 6 people with fried pickles, onion rings, and ocean perch. Awesome! I was not disappointed. The unit worked flawlessly. The unit comes with two half baskets and a single large basket which were perfect for the different combinations of items we were frying. Our batters were fried crip, the unit maintained good temps, there was no burning, heat was evenly distributed, clean up was easy.

One side note, frying in your home will make your home smell like KFC or Long John Silvers, depending on what you are frying. It will linger for days. I use it outside on the deck to avoid this problem.

The construction is simple and the unit is fairly attractive if you like the look of professional grade stainless equipment. You can't go wrong with this one! Buy it. Buy it now. What are you waiting for? :)

5.0 out of 5 stars Great value for the price, July 28, 2008
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Aroma ADF-212 Smart Fry XL Digital Dual-Basket Deep Fryer (Kitchen)
Honestly I was a bit dubious of this product initially, considering its price point. But after having used it for the last few months I can definitely recommend it.
Previously I had a Delonghi, which was a great design but did not hold the temperature very well and eventually the drain hose began leaking (oddly they do not sell replacement hoses which is really ridiculous). I had never heard of Aroma before, but figured for this price it was worth a shot. Turned out to be a great purchase.
PROS
Much larger well than some of the other fryers I checked out and allows for the basket to submerge fairly deep. No problem covering the items fully in the oil.
Because of its size, the temperature stays pretty consistent, even when the basket is full.
Heats up fairly quickly considering the size of the well.
Pretty easy to clean, and the design of the well (it separates from the rest of the unit) makes it much easier to drain than I though it might.
Temperature gauge seems accurate
CONS
I HATE the way the timer on this is done... It's handled via a multi-function button, which you can easily screw up when you are in a hurry. No easy way to just put it "3 minutes" and let it go. For some people this will be less of a deal breaker than others, but seriously - I would pay 10 bucks more for the same unit with a real stand-alone easy-to-program timer.

Overall I highly recommend, especially if you do large batches of fries or tortillas. This is a great product for the money.

5.0 out of 5 stars Aroma Deep Fryer - Good value for the money, September 23, 2007
This review is from: Aroma ADF-212 Smart Fry XL Digital Dual-Basket Deep Fryer (Kitchen)
I purchased this item to be used to make french fries at a football concession stand. The unit is easy to operate and has a fairly quick recovery time between batches (about 3 to 5 minutes). One unit can cook about 60 lbs of defrosted french fries in five hours. The procedure I use is two step fry method described in the Joy of Cooking. With the two step method and advance preparation, the unit can keep up with demand when the pre-cooked fries are cooked a second time for only 2 minutes. The fryer is very easy to clean.
