I see that the T-Fal Odorless basket is not practical. I think that when you take it out of the oil tank, and hook it, the oil flows out of the tank because of the hook which dips into the oil. If you understand what I mean...
Best deep fryer review on the interwebs period. Better than America's Test Kitchen even. Great job !
This video was more worth it to watch than all other videos that I found on the Internet today about deep fryer. Thanks man!
Just found this guy/page but LOVE the reviews, He's got a great talking/teaching voice! Love authentic reviews with proper pro's & cons and the few recipes I caught look like they're definitely worth trying!
One of the only legit reviews for the odorless. Plus, LOL@7:55 - thats why I come back to this channel
Another excellent detailed review, thanks!
May the Fries be with you.
Excellent hands on review. Real pro's and con's on the features of the fryers. Good job!!!
Thanks, Gerald!
Thanks for this review! Best reviews / + the products you choose are the best. Super helpful always.
I was just given one for my birthday literally 1 hour ago. Your presentation was far more helpful than the manual it came with. Thank you so much. Oh, I did subscribe. . Lol
Nice practical video. Thanks you.
Fantastic! and well presented! thank you!!
Thank you, great video! I purchased the odorless unit. I can't wait to give it a go!
Awesome! Post back and say how it goes if you have time.
What a great and insightful review.
Thank you!
Very nice video man! 2 Thumbs up.
great review my man. much appreciated!!
Thank you, Manolo!
Thank you Uncle scott for clearing this up for me, I'll be getting the odorless fryer because we don't have good ventilation!
Probably my favorite product review. Great job...
Good and credible review. Thanks for taking the time to do this.
Thanks, Jean!
Great job! Appreciated!
Thank you!
Love your videos, funny and informative!
Thanks, Work!
Went to Walmart and they were out of deep fryers that user oil. So I went online to reseach... I only needed to watch this video!!! It was excellent and even made me hungry :) Keep up te good work Uncle Scott. !! Needles to say Im abo o pick up the original unit.
Thank you for this video!!!!! I just bought the ez clean but started to second guess my choice and consider the odorless. So glad I got tje ez clean!!!!!
Very helpful thank you
I just scored a used T-Fal EZ Clean (even made a video about it) and I found this video very helpful. In watching the belabored clean up of the Oder-Less model once it had overflowed, coupled with the fact that it does not have built in oil filtration and a removable oil reservoir, I now see that I made the right decision (for me) on which unit to buy.
Thanks for the great video👍👌
Very helpful!
Love your shows 👏👏👏
Thank you, Luyen!
Awesome review.
Just prior To finding your video I just purchased the storage unit version. Still waiting for a to arrive
Very good
Thank you very much. Wife will love this vidoe
What a freaking great vid man! I am going with the easy-clean one now. As good as your content and presentation is get a better Mic! You are on your way to a VERY subscribable channel my friend! 👍🏻 thanks for sharing your experience with these fryers!
Thank you, Harley! You are correct about the mic. I did get one and I hope the sound is better in newer videos.
You can stop the glass from misting up by wiping some dishwashing liquid on it prior to cooking. Works well love d the presentation.
New year and new video?
Happy Chinese New Year!!!
Same to you and I wish everyone in China well with this awful sickness they are having to deal with.
very good video. you cooked the foods that i wanted to see.
Thank you
I got a cheap deep fat fryer on impulse and spent the weekend frying. The smell seemed to permeate everything and I wasn't expecting that. Thanks for the vid, I'm going to do some web research because I don't want everything to smell like take away restaurant.
Nice review thank you, I think Oleoclean/Ezy-Clean for me. Steam is easy to deal with, oil mess not so much and wider basket for the bigger items.
good review sir
I agree with you about the odorless one being better for apartment renting but is there something i could buy to place over the EZ-clean one to help it with the steam problem? That filtration system is just awesome
So funny and helpful 👍🏼👍🏼
Best product comparison video I've seen... well, ever. Just subscribed. Oh, also, can you just move to the Chicagoland area... within a saaaay 30 min drive of Northwestern University? This way I can just contribute to your household grocery cost and stop by on Fry-days. Thanks
just bought this Odorless one now it is just me and my daughter so only cooking for 2 and i relly like it allot and just works well and i been using penut oil and it cooks great
Awesome, dexter! What do you like cooking in it?
Just bought this deep fryer on Amazon, can't wait to cook some stuff with it. Just gotta buy some vegetable oil of canola oil. 😎
Chicken fingers AND fries, lol Love my Fryer: just made pomme frites to add to steak.
I gained 5 kgs after watching your videos
Very interesting and informative video, and humorous at times! We bought the odorless model prior to watching this video, and I think I may have preferred the Easy clean model had I seen this first. Be that as it may, this is my first frier and I'll make do. The instructions on the odorless one tells you to remove the oil after every use (after cooling to room temp.), and store it in the fridge...will it not condensate, thus contaminating the oil with water? For ease of storage, the other model seems better. Any suggestions on how to store the oil?
Love my odorless!
Great reviews, uncle Scott! I will order the T-Fal EZ Clean Fryer. My four kids loved french fries and fried chicken. I think the EZ Clean Fryer holdl hold more food to fry for the four of them. Thanks.
That EZ clean is a good one to get. Big basket, holds lots of food, and if you use it often that oil storage is really neat to have. Hope you enjoy it! Post back and say how it goes.
2nd video today - packed with the good stuff!
The trouble with the oderless is you have to buy new filters every 20 fries, so you have an extra ongoing cost beyound the oil. BTW we have 2 fryers one has sunflour oil the other has beef tallow, not cheap but oh my the fries are amazing fried in tallow..
OH MAN! Please share the recipes for the donut and glaze. They look delicious.
Got to say, absolutely great job on a review video! You got a subscriber. Thanks for your effort and suffering eating all that fried food. 😆
I, and the makers of Alka Seltzer, Tums and Rolaids, thank you!
Didn’t look like he suffered. It one bit.
Love the content! Finally subscribed (lord knows i owed ya that after the help you've been with seasoning pans). I wanted to ask if you had tried using the EZ clean outside, like perhaps on a fire escape in an apartment? Thanks!
Thanks Elliott! Oh, man, I have not tried that thing outside. On paper, it might theoretically work on a fire escape, but I'd be too scared about accidentally dropping boiling oil on someone below! Maybe your ancestors repelled a castle siege back in the day.
@@UncleScottsKitchen i'm thrilled that you took the time to reply, thank you so much! just finished simmering tomato and reseasoning a mayfter, your advice worked great, the egg is slipping and lsliding! and from the bottom of my heart i hope my lineage defended a castle with fry oil! Waste not want not!
You bring up a really good point at the end of your video. Having two so you can have all your food done around the same time. What's to cons to simply buying a double basket model, to begin with?
Small baskets
Y'all got any doughnuts left?😄I'm still reviewing deep fryers. Going to be a Christmas present to myself. Thank you for this video.
Ha! My wife got me my other fryer for Christmas... I was happy as a clam!
Love T-Fal deep fryers. They appear to last longer than the other brands.
I've definitely had good luck with mine over a few years.
thanks Scott for the quick reply...now if you tell me why the temperatures are so different on the many websites; one goes 325 for3-4 min then second fry is 375 for 3-4 minutes. AND i can find other sites with varying times. I promise this is last question on double frying fries..lol
Can you use Beef Tallow in these fryers?
Well don sir ty
Great channel. I wonder if you have tried frying Falafel? and how?
i think a oven hood on full suction is simpler and easier to clean if frying in a simple pot
You should review the Made In Blue carbon steel frying pan and/or the BK Cookware black carbon steel pan. I have the Made In carbon steel pan and really like it. Would love to hear your opinion on it.
I will try and review one at some point... on The List!
I don't need another deep fryer but maybe they'll come out with a odorless that has the oil filtration. I'd buy that. For Jalapeno Poppers this is a really good recipe
stuff them with cheddar, cream cheese, Chitpole Smoked Gouda & Mexican Chorizo, wrap in Bacon then batter and fry.
Wrap in bacon... I have not considered that but now we're talking!
I am going to go with the EZ Clean and just cook outside because I would have anyway not having a vent hood of any sort
I've been using my EZ Clean for a couple years now and have really enjoyed it. Can't go wrong with it. If you don't mind me asking, you don't have any ventilation for your stovetop? Where does steam go?
@@UncleScottsKitchen Thought I'd chime in since the OP didn't... I have the same setup in my current house, no vent hood, plus the oven is on a wall with no window, the room next to it has a vaulted ceiling, and the house is one floor mostly open floorplan. So basically all steam and smells permeate the house, collecting and lingering in the room with the vaulted ceiling. I don't think I've ever lived in a house with a proper vent hood but the setup in this one is particularly dumb! Joys of military life. I've gotten pretty creative with a makeshift outdoor cooking area next to the grill for things like blackened fish, but while cracking ice off your coleman so you can make some fish in January is fun and all...adding a fryer? Hmm...
If only the Oder less had the oil storage but I really dislike smelling the oil. How was the smell when just using the odorless? Have you noticed a big difference?
Where can i buy replacement charcoal filter?
Please tell me it was Superbowl Sunday on the day of filming this.
Just got one.. My fan didn't pull anything out.. Defective right out of the box. Replacement is on the way..
The fan didn't work at all?
I heard an LG washing machine @0:20 thought mine was done even though it wasn't on.
Came for the reviews, stayed for the jokes.
What about avocado oil i heard that holds high heat too ?
When you have a particularly dirty batch of oil with lots of crumbs etc in it do you still put the oil in the oil reservoir in the easy clean or do you pour it out? Also when you did your fries twice how long was the cooking time on the first fry? Thanks for your reviews. I’m looking for a new fryer. Are the recipes you used for donuts etc. in the book that came with the fryer?
Hi Sherry. It depends on what the crumbs are... usually when we fry chicken, the chicken batter has buttermilk and flour in it, and for some reason anything with the buttermilk really seems to produce more crumbs and bits. So usually for that, we will fry 5 - 8 baskets of chicken and then the oil is cloudy and has bits and a chicken flavor, so we throw it out. If I'm throwing it out, I usually don't strain it into the hopper but just take a kitchen funnel and put it back into the oil container it came in. But if the crumbs are from something like fries or just breadcrumbs without buttermilk, we'll use that usually five times or so (and of course it also depends on how long you go between uses... it will eventually go bad over time anyway). On the fries, it is usually 5 - 7 minutes or so for the first fry (just keep an eye on them). The donut recipe my wife found on the internet.
Hi Scott, thanks for the in-depth review. With the Great State Fair of Texas canceled this year, I'll have to make Fried Cheesecake at home so I'm looking for a good fryer. The EZ-Clean looks great but I may have problems storing it in our pantry due to shelf height. What is the exact height of the unboxed unit? I've seen numbers from 14" to 14.8" on the web. Also, is the height lower if I store the lid separately? .....or do I have to remove the heating element to lower the storage height?
Regarding the Odor Less version, I'm ok with the added cost but, as mentioned in a previous comment, the T-fal "where-to-buy" website says that unit has been discontinued: " Sorry, we cannot find any online retailers"
kohls has them
Hi. Great review!! Your wife is so patient with you, helping prepare chicken n doughnut recipes. The food looked wonderful n tasty. Ya'll ate good for sure! You're right, whether or not you have a good vent system will determine which one to buy. How do you clean the cooking element? I like the EZ clean better for size n cleaning n storing of oil. The other one has more parts to remember to clean n buying filters ( if you can remember when to buy them ). Keep up the great reviews n recipes. Peace to you and yours
Thank you very much! The heating element is pretty easy to clean. I just wash the coils with dish soap/sponge. Main thing is to not immerse it in water... keep the electronics from getting wet.
How are both of these for holding their temperatures after adding the foods to cook? Plus, my understanding of cooking the fries is that you boil the fries until almost comes apart...but just before that point, then deep fry them. Some add some vinegar and salt to the boiling water first! VInegar in the water helps keep the structure together and the salt in the water gives a bit of internal flavour after the deep frying is all done! Otherwise, you bite into the fry, and the internal part just tastes like plain old potato... no real flavour.
After reading the bad reviews on the easy clean unit with oil storage, I was going to get something else, but I've seen some videos that say its one of the better ones.. so... may get it!
Good review... thanks.... not into paying for extra filters!
Great review. Delivery on the the deadpan humor could have better though, lol.
What deadpan humor?
where do you get the filters for the order less model?
I looked on Amazon but it looks like they are out of stock. Maybe the T-Fal website would have some.
You show the oil storage in the fryers to the right, easy clean, but how long do you store the oil and do you drain it while it is hot?
I didn't realize it at the time, but I think the drain has a feature that prevents it from draining if the oil is too hot. I would generally let mine cool down for a couple of hours and then drain it. As for storage, it just depends on how much it's been used. If I've done five or more batches of food, it won't last long. If I've done french fries or something with no batter and not too much odor, it will keep for a few weeks. But there is no magic rule... just until it gets colored and/or smells a bit. I usually just drain it out after a big frying day.
The ultimate test to know if your oil is still good or not. Dip a little bit of white bread in the oil, I you don't want to eat the bread you shouldn't fry in the oil.
Liquid oils generally keep shorter, but they're healthier while they're good. With liquid you can normally do 7 to 8 batches. If the oil changes colour or starts to let of steam (don't know if steam is the right word, nonnative speaker lol) while it warms up it's definitely time for a change.
So i'm wondering why T-fal didn't just keep the easy clean with the oil filtration/storage and add the odorless filter and no fog lens too it? Seems common sense to marry the two together and have one machine that can do it all.
who is gonna pay 150 for a fryer
@@Patrick-Mckinney If the item is worth that price, I am sure many people would pay so they would not have to compromise with getting one feature, but not another.
@@smoove7932 might be worth it but the market is not there.
And the ez clean sucks more like EZ LEAK
@@Patrick-Mckinney I understand, appreciate you!
I think both of these products are patented seperately, and probebly has a clause of not being able to use in other models or something
I'd probably only fry a couple time a month. Can you reuse the oil after that time, or will it be bad? Also, how to dispose of used oil? thx
There is no exact answer... you may have to go with the sniff test. If I fry something like chicken tenders that have buttermilk in the batter, I find that there is a lot of gunk in the oil and it takes on a chicken flavor, so I might only use that oil one time for the big fry day. For things like french fries (things that don't have much batter or strong flavors), I can get several uses out of the oil. But it depends on how long between uses, etc. For the Odorless model, what I do is just save the oil jug, let the oil cool back down, pour it through a strainer funnel back into the jug, then I label the date and what I cooked and store it in the fridge. For disposal, I do about the same thing... put it back in the jug and then in the trash, but I don't just pour it down the drain.
I always leave the peeligs on potatoes
I am sorry for the very noob question. But if a recipe calls to deep fry at 400 or 415*...Can I just fry it at max of this machine (375*) for a little longer?
That's what I would do. In fact, not sure of the recipe but frying at 415 is getting up to the risky point where the oil is going to smoke and there is a higher chance of a grease fire. Not sure I would fry at 415 to begin with.
Background noises was a bit distracting but excellent video 👍🏽👏🏼👏🏼
I thought it was James May in the thumbnail
Do you have a recipe for your fry sauce and are you willing to share?
I used to have that on the website somewhere but off the top of my head (you might need to adjust proportions to taste) here is the basic recipe: 2 parts mayonnaise to one part ketchup, onion powder to taste, tablespoon of pickle juice to taste (sweet or dill). Then it branches off into endless variations... you could use chili sauce instead of ketchup, relish instead of pickle juice, I like a shot of cayenne pepper and a shake of garlic powder in mine, some use barbecue sauce instead ketchup, on and on and on!
@@UncleScottsKitchen thank you!
Thank you Uncle Scott for this information, but genetic oil not good! We are learning!
What is your favorite and go to fryer?
I like the T-Fal EZ clean IF IF IF you have good ventilation, the T-Fal Odorless if you don't.
@@UncleScottsKitchen better than all-clad and thanks for the quick response
Anybody else cringe when he shook the fries over the scale? 😬😅😅 thank you for this video just what I needed to make my decision
If I had a nickel for every time my wife cringes when I do something in the kitchen, I wouldn't be making UA-cam videos! :)

Hello. uncle scott.
I live in Korea.
I've been wondering for months how the Tefal FR8000 (or 1.8L capacity model) and the odorless fryer are right for me.
FR702D51 (1.8L)
This product is easy to reuse oil, but it produces oil vapor.
I think this is an obvious disadvantage.
It should be used just under the kitchen hood and the hood should be cleaned periodically.
However, the odorless fryer does not emit oil vapor. But I have to clean up the oil left over from frying. Instead, there's 74% less oil vapor, so there's no stress that you need to clean your kitchen hood frequently.
I live in an apartment, and the kitchen hood is not that big. Of course, the oil vapor from the fryer can be covered.
I need advice from my uncle Scott.
Which product should I buy?
If I buy an odorless fryer, I will also purchase an oil storage can with a strainer.
Take care.
Have a nice day.
Hello to everyone in Korea! I hope you are all doing well and thank you for your comments! From what you said, I think the Odorless would be good because the oil vapor is less and it would be good in an apartment. Especially if you have an oil storage container and filter, then the Odorless should work very well. I hope that helps!
@@UncleScottsKitchen Thanks for the advice. Uncle Scott.
In this comparison video, the amount of oil in the odorless fryer is 3.5 liters, which is the same as the FR8000, but the frying basket seems to be smaller.
My family is four, including me, and I will mainly use it, and sometimes I will have a beer with my friends (one to two)
so the small fry basket will be a problem? or i don't need to worry?
Lmfao reminds me of something I found at a chevron
I'm generally not in favor of mask mandates, but if you ever stop at the Elko, Nevada Chevron I'd highly recommend one!
Good luck buying the EZ clean online is impossible are they T-fal not making this model no more?? Help!!!
Holy cow I have not heard that. I will see if I can find out. I hope they are coming out with a new model that combines the EZ Clean and the Odorless.
@@UncleScottsKitchen and apparently the filters are discontinued, see review here www.t-falusa.com/Kitchen-appliances/Fryers/ODORLESS-DEEP-FRYER/p/8010000642 I agree that a combined EZ clean and odorless sounds like the best combination, let's see if it comes.
Wayfair sells them, and about 30 dollars than other places. I believe T-fal is pushing for the odorless as if it were an upgrade to the EZ clean. In fact, the only review I've ever seen that was hands-on has been this one.
@@beantown_bennie6935 I finally got one some time ago and man now the thing is in a corner because I didn’t like it 😂
WHAT !! 3:16
I do appreciate your review but I'm going to be real honest with you if they can't filter out 75% of the gas fumes and what not I'm not really interested..
the odorless seems plasticky and gimicky. also more expensive.. I think the filter and storage feature in the ez clean and lower price makes it the nod. also these seem to not hold a lot of oil
Good points. I like the EZ Clean better for food capacity, but the Odorless is good if you don't have good ventilation.
glad not to hear the guitar sound. 2 lodge pans would have done exactly the same job, no need for expensive fryers :P but I understand the gadget hype and excitement, I do it too. the odourless/filtered model (newer addition) has a deeper almost conical construction in the bottom under the heating element as to drag down impurities and other fried bits and pieces and not keep frying them on a flat bottom. I know these as Lidl, not sure if any Lidls are available in the US, marketed their fryer as innovative some 6-7 years ago as the conical feature was the way to go, they called it 'cold fryer zone'. Not really into things that have so many parts and cavities. They should either be easy to put in the dishwasher or 2 lodge pans filtre their oild wash in warm water dry and goodbye hahaha. Good almost scientific comparison. I didn't watch because I was interested in buying one only because your input is good and suits my values.
Great comments and thank you. I'd bet that next year T-Fal comes out with an odorless model with oil filtration so that you get the best of both worlds. I made some fries for the Super Bowl and I noticed that the gunk and particles did seem to settle down in that deep area in the hopper. I let the oil sit for a while, then poured off the good stuff off the top back into a container. I really didn't need to filter it. Thanks again for watching!
why not fry in dripping. Iron pans are Fabulous
love this guy BUT when double frying, he failed to say how long he fries the second time when double frying fries....very aggrivating
Hi Bruce! For the fries, there is no specific time for the second fry... I usually start checking them once every minute or so starting at about five minutes. Some people like them softer and some like them darker with almost a little crunch, so just take them out when they look like what you like.
Well, I still like my dutch oven for deep frying. It has more than one use and in the end, it's less clutter in the Kitchen. I got a Straub coming for my birthday- and the first thing I am going to do with it is Fry fish, and in the one I currently have I will do the chips. and I will put it all on the local Communist News Paper and it will be real fish and chips just like they do it in England!
I like it!
Frying on the stove top is a pain in the ass. Hard to keep a consistent temperature, hard to save the oil, easier to make a mess. I had a lousy $20 electric fryer until my wife filled it with water washing it but even that was a huge improvement.
I'd totally ignore the directions and use beef tallow.
