One of those things we had as kids was a deep fryer with basket, just about like this one. Since then some improvements have been made including the removable heating element, which makes cleaning easier while allowing for very efficient heat transfer.I think the magnetic attachment for the cord in the back of the unit is maybe unnecessary, considering how short the cord is anyway; and I have found that, true to the intent of the design, the cord is easily pulled out of the socket in the back of the fryer.The temperature control works well and is easy to read. Temps remain relatively stable during cooking. The basket has foldable handles, which might be handy for storage after draining the oil out. I just leave the whole thing set up and ready to go on the counter.There's an air gap between thee cooking tank and the outside walls which allows the outside surface to remain relatively cool to the touch.I've had no problems with the Pro Fry after several months of use and am happy I acquired this one.  Read Less
