Don't know what the other reviewer is talking about with the oil problem. Never ran into it myself. Maybe they filled it past the fill line.

After the first use, I liked the unit and discarded the packaging. Well, you can't return it without the original packaging. I would not recommend this unit because of the oil dripping problem.

I have been using this fryer for many years and I bought this one for my son and he loves it

This is the 2nd DeLonghi fryer I bought. They are very good, reliable, and long lasting. My only complaint is that this unit does not have a built in timer like my last one did.

We purchased a Delonghi Cool Touch Deep Fryer about 10 years ago. We loved it so much, we decided to purchase this same exact deep fryer for a gift for my Mom. She had been through several brands & our Delonghi just kept on frying. It heats up fast....
