Product Description
This Buffalo countertop fryer runs two independent 3-litre tanks side by side, each with its own basket, heating element, and dial thermostat control. The two tanks operate separately, which means you can fry different products at different temperatures at the same time — a practical arrangement for short menus where cross-contamination between, say, fish and chips is a concern.
In terms of output, this is a light-duty unit. Each 2kW element will maintain a steady frying temperature during quiet service periods, but recovery time after loading a cold or frozen product is modest compared to heavier countertop or floor-standing fryers. It performs reliably in low-demand environments where frying is a secondary activity rather than the main throughput driver.
The practical strengths of this fryer sit firmly in its size, simplicity, and flexibility:
- Two independent tanks allow separate frying of different products simultaneously
- Compact footprint suits counters where space is limited
- Fully disassembles quickly for cleaning and oil changes
- Lid included as standard to protect oil during downtime
- Lightweight build at 6.2kg makes it easy to reposition or store away
Installation is straightforward. Each tank has its own power lead connecting to a standard 13A socket, so no dedicated electrical supply or professional installation is required. There are no gas or water connections. Adequate ventilation above the unit is still advisable, and it should be positioned on a stable, heat-resistant surface with clear clearance around the baskets during use.
This fryer suits cafés, snack bars, pop-up operations, small hospitality venues, and event catering where fried output is light and occasional. It is also used as supplementary capacity in larger kitchens during quieter service periods. If your kitchen carries consistent frying demand across a full service, a higher-capacity countertop or floor-standing model is likely to be a better fit.
If you're unsure whether this unit matches your service volumes or available counter space, the team is happy to talk through your setup before you commit.

Frequently Asked Questions
- It depends on how much frying your service actually involves. This unit is well suited to light, intermittent frying — a small number of portions per service rather than continuous throughput. If fried items are a core part of your menu and you're serving consistently through a busy period, you would likely find the recovery time and oil volume limiting. A heavier-duty countertop or floor-standing fryer would be a more reliable choice in that situation.
- No. Each tank has its own power lead and thermostat, so you can run one or both independently depending on demand. This gives you a degree of flexibility — you can bring the second tank on only when you need it, which can help manage energy use during quieter periods.
- Yes, its compact size and lightweight build at 6.2kg make it a practical choice for pop-up events, market stalls, and demonstration cooking, provided you have access to a reliable 13A power supply for each tank. It is worth confirming that your on-site power source can handle both elements running simultaneously before committing to it for a busy event.
