It's kind of a pain to empty used cooking oil, so I was excited to try this. The following aspects make it dissapointing:
* The motor is underpowered. It empties the oil slowly, and sometimes you have to turn it off and on several times before it "catches" and actually starts to move the oil.
* The food sediment in the oil sticks to and clogs the filter. To get it off you have to stop the motor, let the food bits fall off, and then start it again (which might or might not happen the first try). Maybe this happens with all oil filters, but no matter what it makes the experience with this one frustrating.
* It requires three D sized batteries. You're not supposed to leave batteries in things that you don't use frequently, so depending on how often you fry you might end up putting in and taking out the batteries every time you use it.

To be fair, even though it didn't live up to my expectations I still use this instead of just draining the oil through cheesecloth or something.

Filter mesh is too fine to suck the oil through so it takes a lot of time cleaning the filter thus making it a lengthy ordeal. Easier just to get a funnel with a screen or a tukey pot with a built-in spigot. Do not waste your time messing with this product.

The first time i used this, it worked well. Not fast, as has been stated here, but it did a nice job. The problem i ran into is storage, i think. I stored it on its side, and after several months of non use, it wouldnt work. Oil had seeped into the battery compartment, and the batteries were coated. They were still good, and after cleaning them and the compartment as best i could, it still wouldnt work. I will buy another one, but i think i will store it upright. Maybe this will keep the oil out of the batteries.
