are deep fryers worth it?

I have no idea why but I have never once made fried wings as good in one of those as what comes out when I cook in a large pot filled with oil on the stove. How can the texture of the batter be so different?

Please get one that is easy to clean.
Otherwise big no since you will never decide to use it again.

They can be nice in the summer since you can fry outside and not stink up the whole house

Got a Cuisinart CDF-200 2 years ago. For a counter top fryer at its price-point, it’s pretty good if you’re not retarded and do the basics..watch your temp/portions. Stuff comes out very nicely.

I have a big double basket one that takes a fuck ton of oil but it's worth it
The consistent temperature alone is the main reason why. Frying on the stove it's always way too hot or too cold. A lot less clean up with the fryer too considering I can do it on the deck or breezeway.
I've made some bomb ass fried chicken in it

I've just got a pot and a dream. I deep fry everything, and let me tell you it's scary when it's just you and a pot half full of boiling oil, but you feel like a man when your face is still all there and you're deepthroating a deep fried apple pie after two deep fried burgers with deep fried tomatoes and bacon or chicken and waffles (both deep fried) and knowing you're going to chug a shit ton of sweet tea or red bull afterward. Yeah, you might get all the torso related cancers, your face burnt off, your waistline expanded beyond belief, diabetes, or gout but you won't feel an ounce of stress, an ounce of anything when it's just you and your deep fried friends making the best of memories. So yeah, probably if you like to deep fry stuff as much as me but a deep pot will get the job done.

As a dutchman who loves his kroket, frikandel, kaas souffle, I'd rather not buy one otherwise I'd eat it evry friday night.
