Default Any (electric) deep-fryer recommendations?

Here's the Presto unit I use. Used to be called the Dazey Kettle but is
now another name. Pull the plug and the kettle is dishwasher safe. No
drain on the bottom but light enough to pick up and pour cooled oil back
into a bottle if that's what you want. I cook fried foods, chicken,
fish, potatoes, shrimp, etc. plus make chili in it, cook beans from the
dry state, make lots of rice in there, pretty much anything you want.
Has a dial thermostat that is pretty accurate according to my digital
thermometer. Highest setting is 400F and I usually fry at 350-375F.
