Overview
The Giantex GT24955US-PE is a 1700-watt electric deep fryer with a 5.3-quart oil capacity and three frying baskets, one large and two small, built for home batches of fried food rather than continuous commercial use.
- 5.3 quart / 21 cup oil capacity
- 1700 watt immersion heating element
- Adjustable temp 302-374F with 60-min timer
- Enamel-coated, non-stick inner liner
Who it's for
Suits home cooks and small gatherings who want to fry a full batch of wings or fries alongside a smaller side without swapping oil. Less suited to anyone who fries often and needs equipment built to survive daily use, given the reliability complaints.
Pros and cons
- Three baskets cover large and small batches at once
- Timer prevents leaving oil on too long
- Fast heat-up recovers temperature between batches
- View window lets you watch frying without opening the lid
- Outer shell feels cheaply made to some buyers
- Multiple reports of early failure within months
- Not built for frequent or commercial-level frying
- Oil capacity smaller than some full-size fryers
Performance notes
The adjustable temperature knob covers 302 to 374 degrees Fahrenheit with a 60-minute timer, and the lid's view window lets you watch frying without lifting it and risking a splash.
