Product Features
Made completely of stainless steel, the fryer features an oil drain in the front corner to easily drain used oil into a container for disposal. It also includes a thermostatic temperature control, which can be set at 200-390 degrees Fahrenheit to keep the oil at the perfect temperature for whatever you are cooking. It requires about 50 minutes to reach ideal temperature and 15 minutes to recover to full temperature after each use. This fryer is easy to operate and offers an orange light that indicates when the fryer has reached the set temperature and a simple on/off switch to eliminate confusion.
The fryer lid can be hooked on the side of the fryer to act as a drain rack, creating a great place to set the 2 included product trays. These trays are a great way to make frying donuts easier when you are making many at one time. This unit requires a 120V for operation.

It's horrible. I lost thousands at an event. The fryer wouldn't go over 220. Called and was informed o couldn't get a refund. They sent me another and the same thing happened. I wouldn't recommend it at all.

I purchased this fryer in October of 2022 and as of October 14th, 2023, it will not heat up. I checked all my funnel cake event dates to determine use. I've used this fryer only 5 times. I tried again this past weekend at a Christmas in the Park event, no luck. I attempted the reset button process and it did not work either. I've tried different generators, circuits on my food truck and at home, it will not heat up for nothing. It was a waste of money investment based on the number of times I used it and the length of time I had it.

We have had three of the Carnival King DFC44001 funnel cake fryers. The first one lasted approx 1 year and we replaced it, the next one lasted 5 months, just inside the warranty and Webstraurant replaced (not including shipping). The replacement lasted just over the warranty period so we are again without a fryer and needing to make decision on replacement. We will not be using the Carnival King again. Not a wise purchase.

Worked great for 10 months, then one Saturday morning (donut rush), it dies. Not a peep! Order another one, sadly, but the price is good for what you get.

I would give 0 stars if I could. We ordered the unit, and it broke down within the first 2 weeks. We received a second one shortly after this thanks to the great service from webstaurant, but it stopped working even within the first week. The unit smelled bad, and it definitely overheated somehow. The product looks good from the outside, but the electricity is not made to last at all. I wrote an email just this week and asked Carnival King if it would probably make more sense to buy the 240 unit? Their answer was to check my electric plug where I plugged it in. So I assume they are saying; don't buy any of them. What a disappointment. Don't waste your time and money with Carnival King!

This is honestly the WORST fryer. Webstaurant has been very helpful in trying to resolve this issue, but this fryer doesn't maintain its temperature AT ALL and if you can get it at all hot it takes close to an hour and a half to heat if at all. This is the second unit we have tried and both are basically worthless pieces of junk. We have a small donut shop and fry once per day for about 1 hour, and this fryer still can't keep up with our small operation. I DO NOT recommend this fryer. Again, Webstaurant has been very helpful in trying to resolve the issue, but would be better off to stop selling it. I have read reviews (of course after the fact) on other sites about these fryers and almost every single review is the same, which is it doesn't maintain its temperature, which makes is useless....
