I bought three of these for a company event. We will be cooking french fries for 200-300 people so I opted for the 15 qt fryer. They shipped separately and came from at least two vendors. All three of the frying pots were damaged on arrival. There is not ample packaging material to keep the parts from banging around in the box. The fryers do not sit flat on the ground. The side tables fall off if you move the unit once assembled. So watch your toes. As is probably clear, I was unimpressed with the construction of the fryers.

I must admit that they do seem to work well. The 54000 btu burner seems to be very capable of keeping the oil temperature at temp even while cooking two baskets of tater tots. These three did not have the infamous King Kooker "safety" pressure regulators that require you to push the button every 15 minutes or the flame goes off. I was extremely glad about this.

Overall, this product seems to function reasonably well but I am a bit disappointed in the fit and finish. I am also disappointed to have 3/3 frying pots damaged. That doesn't seem to be a good batting average. I can't send them back as the event is this week so I guess I am just stuck with them.

Pros: I really shopped around, and decided the side tables were a most. And they are. The unit goes together and comes apart for storage quit easily, and is well made. The regulator works well, and controls the flame from a purr to a roaring blase.

Cons: The pot, and basket are made of fairly light gauge aluminum, and in fact the pot came dented. A lid would also had been a nice addition.

Used it for the first time this past weekend for a fish and fries fry. Loved it, except that the flame went out 3 times while cooking. No idea why. Everything was tight, flange was open for O2, and it wasn't windy. Has a great height, not like a lot of those bend over outdoor burners. The two baskets are great.
