This Avantco EF40-208-3 40 lb. electric floor fryer provides all purpose, affordable frying in any kitchen.

By maintaining full contact with the oil, the fryer's fully submersed elements provide superior heat absorption, which reduces recovery time and lowers overall energy consumption per pound of food. Not only does this save your staff valuable time during the dinner rush, but it also saves you money and increases profit margins. In addition, its extra-wide cold zone traps sediment below the cooking area, which helps conserve oil and reduces flavor contamination.

VERY DANGEROUS. We bought this two months ago and the thermostat stopped working, over heated the oil and exploded. Creating major fire and burning half of our kitchen. Thank goodness our staff had stepped out from the kitchen for few mins otherwise it would have been deadly. unacceptable. NOT SAFE !!!!

This is a fantastic fryer! We use it for fresh cut french fries, chicken fingers, onion rings and so much more. Oil heats up in three minutes. Make sure you have the correct electricity hook up. This is so much better than the smaller table top fryers. It will pay for itself soon!
