Waring WDF1700 Countertop Deep Fryer, 15 lb Oil Capacity, 2 Baskets, 1800W, Stainless Steel, 120V

The Waring WDF1700 is a countertop electric deep fryer with a 15 lb oil capacity, two fry baskets and a stainless steel body. It runs at 1800 watts on standard 120V power, giving cafes, bars and small restaurants a larger oil volume than 10 lb countertop models while still plugging into an ordinary outlet.

Larger Oil Volume on 120V

Oil volume matters in a countertop fryer. A 15 lb pot holds more heat than a smaller vat, so dropping a basket of frozen fries pulls the temperature down less and the oil comes back to frying temperature sooner. That translates into crisper results and steadier ticket times when orders stack up, without needing a 208V or 240V circuit.

The open fry pot is served by a swing-up heating element that lifts clear of the oil, giving staff access to the pot for draining, wiping out and routine cleaning. With two baskets, cooks can run two smaller orders side by side or stagger batches so one is always draining while the other cooks.

Electrical & Installation

• Electrical: 120V, 60 Hz, single-phase, 1800 watts with a NEMA 5-15P plug; that is about 15 A
• Dedicated circuit: at roughly 15 A, give the fryer its own circuit so heat recovery is not limited by other loads
• Placement: level, stable countertop away from water sources; follow local code for ventilation over deep-fat frying
