Overview
A 4.5-liter (19-cup oil capacity) electric deep fryer from Hamilton Beach with two 6-cup baskets, a viewing window, and a vented lid for splatter control. The 1800-watt heating element is rated to fry up to about 12 cups of food.
The two-basket layout is the main draw here, letting someone fry two different foods, or double a batch, without swapping baskets mid-cook. Both baskets hook over the pot rim to drain oil after frying, and the enamel-coated pot, baskets, and lid are listed as dishwasher safe.
- 4.5 L / 19-cup oil capacity, fries up to 12 cups of food
- 1800-watt immersed heating element
- Two 6-cup chrome-plated baskets
- Viewing window with vented, splatter-free lid
Who it's for
Fits a household or small gathering cooking fried food regularly enough to want two baskets running at once, such as fries and chicken tenders together. Less suited to someone who fries only occasionally and does not want a dedicated appliance taking up storage.
Pros and cons
- Two 6-cup baskets allow frying two foods at once
- Vented lid keeps splatter contained during frying
- Pot, baskets, and lid are dishwasher safe
- Detachable heating element simplifies oil changes
- Takes about 7-10 minutes to reach full temperature
- Maximum temperature setting is capped at 375 F
Performance notes
The 1800-watt element reaches its 375 F ceiling in roughly 7 to 10 minutes from cold, according to owner accounts, and holds temperature well enough that dropping in frozen food does not stall recovery for long.
