How much food does the 12.5QT basket hold?

It holds several pounds of fries or wings in one batch, enough for a family or a small party. That is roughly two to three times what a typical 4-quart home fryer takes.

Does it have a temperature control?

It has a dial with a timer, but no digital readout. Owners report the oil temperature drifts, so a separate thermometer helps for precise frying.

Is the basket and lid included?

Yes. The fryer comes with a wire frying basket and a lid, and the basket hooks onto the rim to drain.

Let the oil cool, drain it out, then wash the basket and lid in soapy water. The oil well wipes clean but cannot be removed, so the whole unit stays on the counter during cleaning.

Is it good for a small household?

Probably not. It needs a lot of oil to fill and is bulky, so a smaller 3- to 5-quart fryer or an air fryer suits one or two people better.

Our take on the ROVSUN 12.5QT Electric Deep Fryer with Basket & Lid

The ROVSUN 12.5QT is a large electric countertop deep fryer with a 1700W element, a wire basket and a lid. Its 12.5-quart capacity is far bigger than the 3- to 5-quart fryers most home cooks buy, so it suits big batches of wings, fries or fish for a crowd. The timer is a basic dial control; there is no oil filtration, no dual basket and no digital temperature readout, which is where pricier fryers pull ahead. Owners like the size and the simple operation, but ratings are middling, with complaints about temperature control and cleanup.
