- No drainage system for used oil
March 2009. The Presto 05411 GranPappy is the best budget electric deep fryer according to reviews. Although it lacks the fancy features of more expensive fryers, including a built-in system for draining and storing oil, owners say it can generate a lot of heat, so fried foods emerge crisp and nicely browned. The barrel-shaped GranPappy doesn't have a fry basket, but it does come with a scoop. This deep fryer is said to be lightweight and easy to store, and it comes with a snap-on lid that allows you to keep the oil in the fryer. Owners say it's an excellent value, and most don't miss having a built-in thermostat. Some owners report that the exterior can get hot. If you are looking for a deep fryer with more features, including an integrated drainage system for used oil, reviews indicate that the DeLonghi D895UX Roto (*est. $105) is a good choice, but it's obviously far more expensive.
