Aemutady Mini Deep Fryer vs MyMini 1.5 qt. Electric Deep Fryer

The MyMini is the easier pick for most people: it heats itself, holds a steady 120°F to 400°F on a dial, and shows the temperature, so fries and chicken come out consistent. The Aemutady is a plain stainless pot and basket you set on your own stove, so you control the heat and the oil amount. Build is close on both, but the MyMini's 700W element and thermostat do the work for you, and its 4.4 rating from about 2,700 owners backs that up. Choose the Aemutady only if you want a small stovetop pot with a pour spout and no cord.

• Choose the Aemutady if you want a compact stovetop pot with a strainer basket, pour spout and foldable handle, and you are happy to control the heat yourself.
• Choose the MyMini if you want a self-heating 1.5-quart fryer with a dial from 120°F to 400°F, a temperature display and a dishwasher-safe basket.
