heat on countertop: When using a deep fryer, does the countertop where it sits, get hot?

While I do not know if it will affect the countertop or not, what I do is just sit my deep fryer on an old cookie sheet. Not only will I not risk 'heating' my countertop, it also helps to contain any grease that I may dribble while transporting the food to the serving platter.

I dont see a problem as long as the 2 burners line up with the plates on the bottom. I'v seen it on display that way with a deep fryer next to it.The worst that can happen if it doesn't line up is you will get hot spots. Hope that helps

It does show Fahrenheit as well. Just a side note; this is hands down the best deep fryer that I have purchased for the money. I have had several throughout the years and this is the best! The only issue I had was you have to put the timer on to keep the fryer running, its not a problem but needs to be done.

It gets hot but no more than any similar appliance. I use the top to warm plates when necessary if it is on.This is the best toaster oven I've ever owned and had it for several years.

YES! very hot and you should also protect countertops from the heat produced. I use a large thick doubled bath towel under the crock-pot on my stone counters and also on my glass cooktop. Also, use caution with temperature extremes (this goes for all crock-pots) for example: do not run cold water on a hot lid or crock- you may break the items. Either allow items to cool or run warm water instead.

The heating element is in the bottom of the fryer. I place the fryer next to the sink when using and wait until oil cooled before emptying into container placed in sink.

Heat will fry amps up. If you mounted under the seat, that location holds much heat and likely the cause. Remount on the lower frame facing forward if the unit is waterproof, not resistant.

No, but the temp is not as advertised. I ended up throwing it out a long time ago and buying a commercial grade fryer. More money but worth the investment.

The top does get very warm, not boiling hot. When in use I tend to place unit a little towards front of counter.

The front and sides on mine do not get hot. I toasted English muffins and tested how hot the front would get. I felt no heat on the front until I slid my hand up the front close to the toaster slots. I began to feel heat at the top front as I got near the slot. If I didn't feel heat at that part, then the toaster wouldn't be working as it should.

It is a deep fat fryer, 350 deg F max. Works well. So, why not, if that temp is recommended? I have not explored Indian recipes.

No, it does not get hot to the touch. I have touched it while it was baking and did not experience any excessive heat.

I only use mine on my counter top. I think it might pick up too much heat from being next to working burners.

According to Google..490 degrees. It should be fine for deep frying. I have not tried it, so I am not speaking from "experience"

I'm not 100% sure. This is not as deep as the fryer so I do not believe that it will sit far enough into the deep fryer, the handle will stop it from going down into the oil. I use it in a 5 quart dutch oven on the stovetop. Hope this helps.

Yeah - I use mine on a turkey fryer. If anything I have to keep it turned down as my burner is capable of producing more than enough heat. Hope that helps!
