Hamilton Beach Electric Deep Fryer 4.5L with 2 Baskets Stainless Steel

Description

Product Overview

The Hamilton Beach Electric Deep Fryer (model 35036) combines professional‑grade performance with user‑friendly design, making it an ideal addition to any home kitchen. Constructed from durable stainless steel, the fryer offers a generous 4.5 L (19 cup) oil capacity, allowing you to fry large batches of food such as French fries, chicken tenders, onion rings, and battered vegetables without the need for frequent refilling. The 1800 W immersed heating element reaches the desired temperature rapidly and maintains consistent heat distribution, ensuring even cooking and a golden‑crisp exterior while preserving moisture inside.

Two chrome‑plated, 6‑cup frying baskets provide flexibility for cooking different foods simultaneously or in succession. After frying, the baskets hook over the oil pot, allowing excess oil to drain back into the reservoir, which reduces waste and promotes healthier results. The vented lid features a clear viewing window, so you can monitor the cooking process without lifting the lid and releasing hot oil vapors. All components—including the enamel‑coated oil pot, baskets, and lid—are dishwasher‑safe, simplifying post‑meal cleanup and minimizing the time spent scrubbing greasy surfaces.

Key specifications include a compact footprint of 21.4″ D × 14.1″ W × 10.2″ H, a weight of 12.4 lb, and a user‑friendly temperature control dial that lets you select the optimal frying temperature for a variety of recipes. The fryer is backed by Hamilton Beach’s reputation for reliable small‑appliance engineering and carries a solid customer rating of 4.5 stars from over 8,900 reviews, reflecting its consistent performance and value.

Usage

This deep fryer is designed for everyday home cooking as well as special occasions such as family gatherings, game nights, and holiday feasts. Its large oil capacity means you can prepare enough food for a crowd without the need for multiple batches, saving both time and energy. Whether you are craving classic crispy fries, golden chicken wings, or exotic tempura vegetables, the fryer’s precise temperature control ensures each item is cooked to perfection.

The dual‑basket system is especially useful when you need to fry two different foods at the same temperature without mixing flavors. For example, you can fry fish sticks in one basket while preparing sweet potato fries in the other, then serve both dishes hot and ready to eat. The splatter‑free lid minimizes mess, making it safe to use on countertops and reducing the need for extra cleaning supplies.</n

Because the fryer’s components are dishwasher‑safe, you can quickly rinse the oil pot, baskets, and lid after use, allowing you to spend more time enjoying your meal and less time on cleanup. The sturdy stainless‑steel construction also resists corrosion and staining, ensuring the appliance remains attractive and functional for years of regular use.

The fryer features a manual dial that allows you to select the desired temperature range. The dial is calibrated for common frying temperatures, making it easy to set the correct heat for fries, chicken, fish, and more.

How do I maintain the fryer for long‑term use?

After each use, allow the oil to cool, then drain it into a suitable container for disposal or reuse. Clean the oil pot, baskets, and lid with warm, soapy water or place them in the dishwasher. Wipe the exterior stainless‑steel surface with a soft cloth to keep it shining.
