we use about 1 liter and leave it in the fryer for next time. Just like a restaurant only we use olive oil for better health. We love this fryer. It makes great banana chips too.

you do not need too much oil. it actually depends on how much you want to fry. i make sure i have mine at least half filled

The fryer holds a set amount of oil, there's a fill line. If you overfill the fryer with oil, it will bubble over when you're cooking anything. I've made fries and chips in mine and I don't adjust the amount of oil for any particular type of food; I just fill it to the line. I would guess it's about a quart (4 cups).

approx 1 liter, depends on how many you cook at one time. If we have alot to cook, we add more.

It takes a little over 3 quarts. We then reuse that oil a few times, storing it right in the deep fryer, covered on a shelf in the garage.

If the fries are cut thin I cook for about 6-7min on 375degrees. Thicker may take 8-10 min.

I use 2.5 bottles of canola oil. Each bottle is 48 oz. So it takes about a gallon of oil.

Piece of cake. Just get some extra bits, and keep the oil filled on the unit.

I love this fryer. We put about 6-8 wings at a time, closer to 10 if the wings are small. Last week we even made the best potato chips in the machine. We shaved a potato and fried them. Best potato chip I ever had.

I strongly suggest that you DO NOT use less than the maximum amount of oil. With the bottom heating elements you need a fair amount of oil over them.

I haven't actually measured it but it has to be 1½-2 qts. There's a line that they recommend you stay at or under. It can easily fry 5-6 potatoes for french fries though. I use mine all the time and love it. Haven't really had any problems with size...I just do a couple of batches if I have more people to serve. It's easy to clean and maintain. Love the lid to store the oil between uses. I do wish it had a little longer cord but my outlet setup is kind of weird...a normal counter/outlet setup would be fine. I don't think you'd go wrong with this for the price.

Yes it needs oil. You can buy the popcorn packs from Great Nothern. They have popcorn, oil and seasoning all in one pack and are quite good.

I buy a 5 gallon container and use about 3/4 between both sides. That brings it about 4-5 inches from the top. I do that so it doesn't overflow and cause a fire when I put whatever I'm frying into the hot oil. I still use mine and an loving it. I have fried up to 50lbs of fish and fries at one time.

YouTube it! I usually wipe oil on all over put it in the oven and turn the stove on at 500F 30 minutes; then turn it down to 300F until oil burns off without smoke! I repeat at least twice. Remember to open you windows and fans! Enjoy! WITH PROSPERITY THERE IS NO WAR!

I do not need oil with mine. I have put battered fish & frozen potatoes on to crisp without any extra oil so I do not have a problem with oil dripping through the holes.

Don't know for sure, I fried up a batch of potatoes and onions (twice) as well as some walleye fillets and chicken wings (sever batches) and there seems to be plenty of fuel left in the cannister. Bottom line..... one fuel can will go a long way. I plan to take two with me for a week of shore lunches in Canada in June and that should be more than enough.

It doesn't use any oil. It's fast to cook and the fries come crispy. I've bought it. It's great!!!

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

I typically fry 2.5 pounds of potatoes per batch. On average 6-8 medium size potatoes. I liked this fryer so much I purchased a second one for large groups.
