Does it cook at 350 degree F?** A: Using a candy thermometer, mine goes beyond 400 degrees Fahrenheit and when I cook with it, it cooks the outside just fine but the inside stays raw. I was also using breaded chicken that had sat out to room temperature. **Q: Does this splatter very much while cooking?** A: YOU ABSOLUTELY "MUST" BUY A SPLATTER SCREEN TO GO WITH IT. IT WILL SPATTER OIL. HOW MUCH DEPENDS ON THE MOISTURE CONTENT OF THE FOOD AND HOW QUICKLY YOU ADD IT. ALSO DO NOT FOLLOW THE COOKING INSTRUCTIONS OR YOU'LL OVER COOK EVERYTHING BIG TIME. AS AN EXAMPLE INSTRUCTIONS SAY 4-8 MINUTES FOR SHRIMP. REALITY IS ABOUT 2 MINUTES 10 SECONDS. FRIES - BOOK SAYS 8-10 MINUTES - REALITY IS ABOUT 4 MINUTES LESS IF THIN CUT. FISH FILLETS - BOOK SAYS 4 TO 8 MINUTES - REALITY IS 3 TO 4 MINUTES DEPENDING ON THICKNESS OF THE FILLETS. BE SURE TO PREHEAT FOR JUST 15 MINUTES. THAT PART THE CHINESE GOT RIGHT. AS A GENERAL RULE OF THUMB WHEN WHAT YOUR COOKING FLOATS ON TOP OF THE OIL ITS DONE. YOU'LL LEARN AS YOU GO . IT IS A GREAT FRYER EXCEPT YOU CAN'T PUT A LARGE AMOUNT IN A ONE TIME. DO NOT GET THE LARGER FRY GRAND DADDY IT SUCKS. IT JUST DOES NOT HEAT THE OIL HOT ENOUGH. **Q: where is this made?** A: Like everything else-- apparently designed in America (Wisconsin). Made in China. Be that as it may-- this is a grand little fry pot. Holds a lot. The heat is controlled and delivers a lovely finished product. Easy to clean. It is definitely a FIVE STAR in this house hold. Shrimp, Oysters, fish sticks, chicken wings, donuts-- they all come out just perfect. Great price and you know how quick Amazon can get it to your door! **Q: How many watts is this cooker?** A: 1200 watts,very nice fryer. ## Frequently Bought Together - Presto 05420 FryDaddy Electric Deep Fryer,Black - Pesto 32034 lid for Fry Daddy fryers. - Presto Deep Fryer Skimmer 44017 --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.co.za/products/665649-presto-05420-frydaddy-electric-deep-fryer](https://www.desertcart.co.za/products/665649-presto-05420-frydaddy-electric-deep-fryer) --- *Product available on Desertcart South Africa* *Store origin: ZA* *Last updated: 2026-07-30*
