Initially Good, Major Issues Developed:
Initially, I really liked this fryer. It was my second deep fryer, and my first deep fryer with an immersion heating element. It worked great at first, but it did take a long time for the oil to heat up. Given the quantity of oil, I figured that was acceptable. The advantage was the oil would maintain temperature during cooking. After about 6 months of use, the sensor to ensure that the heating element is properly installed began to malfunction.

Worked Just One Time:
We purchased this item from Amazon with the sole purpose of using it to make some traditional family foods on Christmas Eve.

That one time that we used it the product was fantastic! And this year to prepare two of our family's traditional foods for Christmas Eve we set the unit up and it did not work.... more info
I love this fryer:
This is my third fryer and I absolutely love it. Heats fast and easy to clean. Like another reviewer, I was worried about the handle on the fry basket at first, but then discovered I didn't click it into place as is clearly stated in the instructions. Well worth the price.
I Hate This Fryer:
Ok, I have owned quite a few fryers, I run a home Child Care business so I use my fryer at least once a week for chicken nuggets and french fries. This fryer clicks into an error mode and theirs nothing you can do, I have tried extra cleaning, the reset button and resetting it over and over. The handle on the basket can easily fall into the oil. I have only owned this one for about 6 months now and for the money I would look at other brands, will never buy a Delonghi again.
