Before you click away because you don’t need another kitchen gadget or you don’t have enough counter space, hear me out. This Cuisinart Deep Fryer is actually much smaller than it looks. You can easily store it in a cabinet when you’re not using it, and you’ll still have room for food prep on your counter when you are using it.

Now that you don’t have to worry about the size, let’s talk about all the delicious things you can cook in this thing. French fries are obviously a no-brainer. My tip is to always use fresh, clean oil and to drain them on a cooling rack right when they come out of the fryer. I’m telling you, it’s pure french fry heaven! Chicken wings, chicken tenders and even healthy items like fried Brussels sprouts are also great to cook in this Cuisinart Deep Fryer.

If you’re on the fence, consider that Amazon shoppers give the Cuisinart Deep Fryer 4.4 out of 5 stars and have left more than 8,400 ratings for it. There are also loads of positive comments.

“Reviewing after using it few times! Love it!” one shopper wrote in their review. “So easy to use, super easy to clean. The food cooks well. A must have and so glad we went with it.”

Another shopper commented, “I’m glad my wife talked me into investing in a dedicated deep fryer, and that I tried the Cuisinart. The basket is just the right size to hold the amount of chips for our family in one frying session. Cleanup is a breeze thanks to the removable lid that excels at keeping the grease vapors inside the fryer and off our cabinets and counter.”

Whether you invest in this Cuisinart Deep Fryer to cook something delicious for your next dinner party or just to use for your own meals on a day-to-day basis, it really is a great buy at less than $50 right now.
