Sunbeam have disappointed me with this deep fryer. Their products I have used in the past have always been good quality, but this is anything but. The edges of the unit are rough metal, I nearly cut my fingers on it when I was setting it up. As a fryer it works well, however, the capacity is deceptive. Sunbeam's website says "Deep Fry Food Capacity (Kg) 1.25". I couldn't even get 900g of fries into the basket, so unless they measured using something small and very dense, you don't see that being achieved. I haven't cleaned mine yet, so I'm not sure how easy/hard that will be. I'm disappointed with Sunbeam, but if you don't mind the poor quality design, and you don't want to cook too much, this fryer may suit you well.
