How big is the 6-quart basket in practice?

It holds roughly 5 to 6 pounds of fries or a 4- to 5-pound chicken. That is a family batch, but don't fill past the max line or food cooks unevenly.

Can I put the bowl in the dishwasher?

The removable bowl is the part to wash, and hand washing keeps the nonstick coating intact longer. Check the manual before using a dishwasher cycle.

No. The tall basket holds heat the same way; the narrow body mainly saves counter width. Food still needs shaking halfway for even browning.

Not at separate temperatures. One basket and one setting means foods that need different heat go in one after the other.

If you rarely cook two foods at once, the simpler single basket is easier to clean and takes less space. Dual-basket models cost more and are wider.

The fryer unit, the removable 6-quart bowl and a manual. Crisper inserts or skewers are not part of the standard set.
