Product Description
This Buffalo countertop fryer is a compact, single-tank electric unit with a 3-litre oil capacity and a single basket configuration. It is designed for operations where frying is a supporting task rather than a primary throughput requirement — running from a standard electrical connection with no fixed installation needed.
In practice, the 2kW element brings oil up to temperature reliably and holds it well during steady, moderate use. Recovery between back-to-back loads will be a limiting factor at this power level, so the unit performs best when frying volumes are proportionate to its size. It is not suited to sustained high-volume service, but within its intended use it does the job consistently.
The 430 stainless steel construction handles the daily demands of a commercial environment, and the unit is designed to be broken down quickly for cleaning — an important consideration when counter space is shared and hygiene standards need to be maintained between services.
- Compact footprint fits into confined counter layouts without disruption
- Standard electrical connection — no specialist installation required
- Simple controls reduce training time for new or temporary staff
- Straightforward disassembly supports quick, thorough cleaning
- Lightweight build allows easy repositioning between stations or storage
Because the unit requires no fixed installation, it can be added to an existing station or moved without significant disruption — useful for operations with flexible or seasonal space requirements.
This fryer is well suited to cafés, small restaurants, pubs, and catering operations where frying is occasional or supplementary. It is not the right choice for high-throughput environments such as fish and chip shops or anywhere requiring continuous back-to-back frying. For those settings, a larger oil capacity and higher power output would be more appropriate.
If you are weighing up whether this unit matches your expected frying volume, we are happy to talk it through before you decide.

Frequently Asked Questions
- It is a practical choice for a pub where frying is limited to bar snacks, sharing platters, or light side orders rather than continuous service. If your kitchen regularly fries in back-to-back batches during peak periods, the recovery time at this power level will become a constraint and a higher-capacity unit would serve you better.
- The unit runs from a standard electrical supply and requires no fixed installation, making it straightforward to place into an existing kitchen without specialist electrical work. You will need to ensure the counter position allows safe clearance around the unit and that your extraction arrangements are adequate for any frying operation.
- The unit is designed to be broken down quickly for cleaning, which matters in environments where counter space is shared or hygiene checks are frequent. The stainless steel surfaces are straightforward to wipe down, and the basket and tank can be removed without tools.
