I am pi$$sed

[Gib's Son]

I purchased and Waring fryer and it fell apart last night. I attribute it to cheap plastic connections. The fryer has been used, maybe, two dozen times over a 14 month period. ( I consider that low use)

I am wanting a HIGH quality fryer that will LAST so I can do my chicken wings that wife and so much love!

Criteria: Reputation for quality. Single Basket. Electric Power. Counter-top.

I know you get what you pay for and will pay top $ for the right equipment. suggestions appreciated.

I am ticked because I wanted wings tonight! Now I have to settle for stir fry.

Go buy a commercial fryer.
If you are a pro, then it should be no problem installing it.

I have been using this Hamilton Beach for years with no problems, I think I got mine at Kmart

I have been having great luck on Craigslist. Just include "made in USA" on your searches. Planned obsolescence wasn't always the way things were designed. I just purchased a 10 year old Weber grill, for $50, that is still better than any of the three $400 grills I've used up were new. I was never into used stuff, I just can't find anything new that doesn't look like it was designed to be temporary.

I have the exact same one. It is well made but I think it takes a long time to heat up. And the basket is kind of dingy. I'd give it a 6.5 on a scale of 10.

BUT for chicken wing I use a wak. My son converted me on this. We have a big wak and it holds a full bag of wings. 3 lbs. They cook in about 25 mins.

Havent noticed the heat up time. Turn it on while you're still prepping the food, should be good and hot when you're ready.

A wak? must be something new?!
