Chefman Deep Fryer

Husband. Father. Deep fry fanatic. Thanks for joining on me this crispy, delicious journey.

Do you love crispy French fries? The At Least We Fried staff sure does! You can get that golden, delicious treat in the comfort of your own home with the right deep fryer. The Chefman Deep Fryer is an excellent model with the power and capacity to have a small party swimming in fries! The Chefman has an enormous 4-liter oil capacity and 1700 watts of heat. That combination allows you to easily fry large batches of food that can feed medium to large gatherings. While we don’t rate it as highly as our favorite, the Secura Triple-Basket Deep Fryer (See in-depth review here), we love this model and consider it one of the top ten best deep fryers available!

Deep Fryer Size

With an oil capacity of 4 liters, the Chefman Deep Fryer is one of the larger deep fryers available for home use. The oil pot has a more squared shape than the traditional rectangular deep fryers. This design may meet some specific user needs regarding frying larger items.

This unit is on the larger side, with dimensions of 15.4 x 14.8 x 9.3 inches. While it may have larger space requirements than some fryers, this unit is stored easily in most kitchens. Without oil, the fryer weighs a little over 9 pounds.

Wattage

The power output of the Chefman Deep Fryer sits at 1700 Watts. Given that this is near the top of the wattage that the circuits in most US homes can manage, this unit is close to the maximum wattage available. Given the large size of the oil pot, the higher wattage is a welcome addition to this unit.

Features

While the Chefman Deep Fryer isn’t light on features, it doesn’t have that one thing that really makes it stick out from the pack. Be that as it may, this unit has an adjustable thermostat and an easily-cleaned wire basket. The fryer also comes with a breakaway chord that allows for easier cleaning and prevents accidents. Speaking of easy cleaning, the basket and oil pot are both dishwasher safe.

Verdict

The Chefman Deep Fryer excels when frying a single dish for a medium to large gathering. It reaches its peak temperature quickly, and while some reviewers find it doesn’t retain that maximum temperature well it is generally very reliable. The biggest knock is that there are similarly performing fryers available for less money. In all, this is a very good fryer that will meet the needs of most.
