Kenwood DF380 Deep Fat Fryer

Kenwood DF380 Deep Fat Fryer
If you're looking for a simple, no frills, deep fat fryer that is easy to operate and can be placed in a dishwasher, then the Kenwood DF380 Deep Fat Fryer with Easy Clean System is worth a look.

Excluding the power connector at the front of the fryer, the DF380 breaks down into just four pieces: lid, basket, bowl, and outside housing. All of these can be safely put into a dishwasher or even immersed in water for easy clean up.

We also liked the cool touch walls, a great safety feature if you have young children or elderly parents around. But what we didn't like was not being able to raise and lower the basket with the lid closed.

Pros:
  • Easy to clean. Dishwasher safe.
  • One touch lid release.
  • Cool touch walls when in use.
  • 1kg basket capacity.
  • Viewing window.

Cons:
  • Basket cannot be raised without lifting the lid first.
  • Temperature control is difficult to turn.
  • Case markings rub off easily.

The Kenwood DF380 is compact, easy to operate and clean, and does a good job of deep frying just about anything you're likely to throw at it.

If you need something a little bigger there is also the Kenwood DF520 Deep Fat Fryer.
