Works great. The only reason it didn't get 5 stars is the basket handle. Previous model it would friction clip into place and was easily pushed into the basket for storage. Now you need to physically clamp it together to remove and reinstall it, which results in oil all over your fingers. Not great when oil is 180 degrees. Not sure why it was changed, never had a problem with the previous design.Otherwise it works great.

My household is so happy with this deep fryer. It makes cooking with oil super safe. The twice fry option works like a dream. Finally my twice fried cauliflower recipe comes out so crispy. So glad we purchased this product

Reliability Engineering and precision needs in place for components to work and last long, considering the price of the fryer. The auto-cut off switch kept clicking and couldnt use the fryer. Were told to wait for few days and re-try, same thing. Did the 3rd time and then returned it. Its been almost 2 months now and we couldnt use the function of deep fryer because our money is stuck with the company. Sorry to say but SMART is not upto the mark yet.

My kitchen is filled with only Breville appliances, so when it came time to getting a fryer, I knew where to look. I purchased this and was worried by the reviews stating that the heating element couldn't be removed for cleaning. When we unboxed the fryer, we saw that that was not an issue at all. Breville must have fixed this in the newer models, as the element is easily unhooked to make cleaning the oil tub easy.My parents have owned mainly tefal fryers over the years which have been great, and if you're looking for oil filtration functions I'd look at those. However if you're like me and just want a fryer that heats up the oil and perfectly fries your food, you can't go wrong with this one. The settings on it are great, and the timer is handy so I can keep ... MoreMy kitchen is filled with only Breville appliances, so when it came time to getting a fryer, I knew where to look.

The settings on it are great, and the timer is handy so I can keep going with cooking/prepping other things and not worry about it. The bucket is large and the basket is sturdy. The whole appliance isn't as solid as other Breville appliances or other fryers, but it's holding up alright.
I like the temperature gauge so we know the temperature of the oil. Heats fast. Menu dial is great, takes away the guess work of cooking time and temperature. Handles on side are great for carrying the deep fryer. Good quality build.
Very impressed with the ease and service of this product. Description was perfect. Easy to operate and makes delicious food.Delivery was slow even considering l lived in the same town but sometimes the wait is worth it.Well done, great product and price.
Purchased the unit about two years ago. We use it three times a year, eg Easter, GrandFinal and Labour day.It now shows ER 1 continuously. Reset no help. It’s had that little use, we have only ever bought three lots of oil for it!Very poor. Could not recommend at all.
I got the deep fryer for Christmas. Its my first time using a deep fryer. Used it once to fry calamari. It worked like a charm.I used the program setting for calamari and it came out delicious, better than restaurant.Clean up was not too hard. Basket and inner bowl went in dishwasher, the rest hand washed easily.The best part was there was no grease splatter anywhere around the fryer. That was the main reason I bought a deep fryer, not to have a greasy mess around my stove and counters to clean up. I should have bought one years ago!The construction is light weight but sturdy. I think if handled with care it will last a long time.I would recommend this product.
I am a Breville fan and have been for some years. The build quality, is great and normally so is the innovation. The Smart Fryer is well made and performs very well. Oil heats up quickly and stays at temperature as you'd expect. Controls are easy and well thought out. Safety features include magnetic plug which some have criticized but I personally think is a plus. Deep fat fryers are inherently dangerous and this safety feature is a good idea though I would appreciate about 6" more cord. Big side, 'keep cool', side handles are also a very welcome feature. I also love the big top handle and well fitting lid with viewing window. The basket is a good size but might be a bit bigger if you're frying for a family and want to avoid multiple batches to get your meal out ... MoreI am a Breville fan and have been for some years.

I also love the big top handle and well fitting lid with viewing window. The basket is a good size but might be a bit bigger if you're frying for a family and want to avoid multiple batches to get your meal out without some of it getting cold.That's where the innovation story ends I'm afraid and that's a shame because apart from the control panel there's not a lot going on here that's unique in comparison to the competition. It's a shame because these things have really not changed in form factor for decades. Here's a punch list of what I'd suggest...-finish/fold over all edges of the steel; internal outer shell edges are sharp-use thicker steel for the exterior shell-the heating element should/must be detachable from the control console and it should also dishwasher safe; total no-brainer as getting underneath it to clean next to the control panel is a pain-research and use a better material for the exterior of the control panel enclosure; the dull grey/black/brown plastic is difficult to get oil off of especially with the gangly/delicate heating element permanently attached-increase the capacity-make the tank deeper so that splash and aerosolized oil is absolutely minimized-consider reusable filters for the lid-perhaps an optional lid that allows for the raising and lowering of the basket in a fully enclosed manner to reduce oil mess in the kitchen-mold one of the tank corners for more direct-stream pouring
I have used this fryer about 6 times now. Despite reading the instructions over & over again, using it is just not coming naturally for me. It's just too difficult to remember what to do to adjust temperatures and times. The oil got way too hot one time and was quite scary. Other times, the timer clicks off too early or late, because different thickness in different batches, I'd rather just be able to cook without worrying about having to fiddle with the timer every few minutes. In addition to how annoyingly complicated it is to use, the basket does not have anywhere to fit it into place when lowered in the oil, it seems that it's supposed to just dangle there. I find that to be very strange. Other than that, the unit is fine. I really miss being able to buy the ... MoreI have used this fryer about 6 times now.

I don't like the hot metal exposed like this one is, but apart from air fryers, all deep fryer models seem to be like that.
