How much oil does the VEVOR XRJ3LX1 hold?

The basin is rated at 0.79 gallons, about 3 liters. Fill to the marked level rather than to the brim, since hot oil expands and can overflow.

What temperature range does it reach?

It uses an adjustable thermostat with a dial and indicator light. Budget fryers in this class usually top out around 375°F, which covers fries, wings and most fried foods.

Is it big enough for a family?

Yes for 3-6 people in batches. The basin holds a good amount of oil, but without a basket lift you add and remove food by hand, so cook in smaller loads to keep the oil hot.

Does it come with a basket or lid?

The unit is a fryer with a stainless basin and simple controls. Check the box contents for a basket or lid before buying, since listings vary and a lid helps with splatter and smell.

Can it be used outdoors or in a small kitchen?

It runs on standard AC mains and needs a stable, heat-safe surface. It is heavy and gives off steam and smell, so a well-ventilated spot near an outlet works best.
