Equipped with a filter to remove food scraps and impurities from the oil during frying. This keeps the oil cleaner for longer, reducing unpleasant odors and extending the life of the oil. You can fry food in a pleasant environment.

This deep fryer does not have a cool zone function. Food scraps will burn at the bottom of the tank, leading to unpleasant odors and reduced oil life. Regular cleaning and oil changes are essential to mitigate this issue.
A function where the power cord is magnetically attached to the deep fryer. If the cord is tripped over or pulled, it will detach easily from the deep fryer body without tipping over the unit. Makes for safer operation.
This model does not feature a magnetic breakaway power cord. Take extra care to position the fryer so that the cord will not be tripped over. This absence increases the risk of accidents and potential spills.
