Presto 5Qt Dual Basket Pro Fry
This Presto 5Qt Dual Basket Pro Fry offers a sleek black stainless steel exterior with professional-style frying capabilities. Its dual baskets allow you to fry two foods simultaneously or large batches, accommodating up to 12 cups of food. Oblong-shaped baskets are perfect for large pieces of chicken or fish. The powerful 1800-watt immersion element ensures quick preheating and rapid oil temperature recovery. Easily select your desired frying temperature with the adjustable thermostat, and a signal light indicates when the oil is ready. The spatter-shield cover minimizes mess when lowering food. Beyond frying, this versatile 5-quart fryer can also steam and boil, making it ideal for vegetables and seafood. For convenient cleaning, the heating element and enameled pot are removable, and the baskets and element nest inside the pot for compact storage.
