Presto GranPappy Electric Deep Fryer Ceramic 05411

Purchased this as a replacement for my older fryer that was bigger with a basket. I had fry baby/daddy many years ago and liked them. So when replacing my old fryer I chose the pappy. Smaller than my older one which I like. Doesnt take up as much room but still does what I need. Like the lid and the scooping tools (wish they were still metal tho).

I have a Presto Fry Daddy, but I wanted something bigger. My Fry Daddy is at least 25 years old and still works, so I knew Presto was a good product. I've used the Presto GranPappy for fried chicken and frozen french fries, and it does a great job. I'm glad I bought it and I know I'll get a lot of use out of it.

This fryer is awesome !! Bought this for frying in the kitchen so I don't have to fire-up my bigger gas fryer outside. Originally bought the FryDaddy which is also excellent but smaller (1-2 people). The GranPappy fryer is better suited for larger quanity frying for a family or entertaining friends. This unit fry's great, recovers heat fast. Good quality in construction of fryer. One other note; this fryer is small enough to be portable so you can take it camping, to a party, out on the patio or anywhere else as long as you have an electric hookup. I would highly recommend this to anyone looking for a good fryer at a decent price.

I owned a GranPappy before. After mine wore out I looked in stores everywhere to find one just like it. Ended up getting it online and am very happy with it. The only bad thing was the scoop that comes with it. The last one was metal. The new one is a plastic type. I'm glad I saved the old one. I'm just happy I could get the same one.

It usually takes me a while to fry tofu, but this fryer does a plateful in less than 10 minutes! No splatter of oil all over the stove, this is compact. Fries perfectly every time. Plan to buy one for my parents and family members. After every use, I leave it about an hour to cool before I drain the oil out over paper towel to catch all the particles of burnt batter, etc. Once the oil is clean, I run a paper towel on the bottom of the GranPappy to make sure I get all the particles out. Then pour back in the oil to save for the second batch. I would reuse the oil about 3 times before I throw it out. I forgot to add that I didn't use the plastic spatula that comes with it. Instead I use really long, wooden chopsticks to pick out the tofu or fried vegetable. It does use a lot of oil, but the end product is worth it.

Love this fryer. It not only heats up and cooks fast but it doesn't have all of those safety features. My last fryer had so many safety features that were a pain, literally, I got burnt so many times I had to get rid of it. This fryer does not come with a basket so you are able to just pick one piece at a time and the total fryer is used. It drys in half the time too.

This fryer is the perfect size. It doesn't take up too much storage space but provides plenty of room to cook your food. We are a family of 4 and get a lot of use out of this product. In fact, this is a replacement for our previous fryer. We wore that one out and just purchased this frye as our new one.

This appliance is fantastic. I now own 2 of these The only thing that could possibly be better would be if they made a Great Grandpappy that is a little larger with a removable basket.

I have a large family so I have to have a fryer large enough to cook a lot at one time. This fryer is nice and large to cook a good amount at a time. The only thing I noticed that this fryer does not have is a temp control, but I guess I don't really need one for french fries and tator tots. Good product!
