What oil do you use?

Sorry, I should have came back to Amazon and deleted my review. It was my power strip that caused the problem...The fryer works great. The only negative thing about it is the clean up. It is great if you fry food every day. Should have gotten a smaller one and one that was easier to clean...And I use canola oil...

I use peanut oil as it takes a higher temperature and doesn't retain flavors

I use peanut oil as it has a high smoke factor - the tiniest bit of oil is used with stir fry , so shouldn't be a problem

You can use any essential oil - I've used lemon, peppermint, thieves, purification, peace & calming, lavender, sometimes I combine a couple drops to make my own blend.

I don't know what the right oil to use is but I used heavy duty gear oil. Mine leaks too but I don't use it enough to worry about. For the price, I'm quite happy with it.

I never have had to use oil, just keep it clean use an air can and spray it clean and spray a little amount of WD40 on all moving parts

Depends on what oil you're using. Anywhere from 20-35. Be sure to leave some room or you won't be able to get it to drip out very easily!

I have used water instead of the included oil since I got it. Still works great!

I use Spectrum Organic Coconut oil, but there are many brands to choose from. I usually "eyeball" my oil mixtures, but try about 4 tbl. spoons of c. oil + 3-4 drops of essential oil. These oils come with a wonderful booklet with tons of information! Also, this company sells carrier oils as well- lots to choose from with lots of info!

I like Peanut oil it is the best, but any cooking oil will work. We also use popcorn butter seasoning salt.

Under no circumstances should you use Olive Oil. It has a very low smoke point. Peanut oil is the first choice, with Canola a close second choice

yes you do. I use argan oil bought at amazon. You only need 6-7 drops. I usually by the product that is the best deal. I have tried many and all are good.

You can use any oil. I use vegetable oil in mine and it works great! Stores do sell popcorn oil as well, it just depends on your preference.

I use peanut oil for the best results. It has a high smoke point and does not break down as quickly as some of the other oils from heavy use during frying.
