Common questions:

How does the inbuilt filtration help?
B+S says it removes food particles, carbon and oil breakdown by-products, which keeps the oil cleaner for longer and helps fried food keep its natural flavour. B+S also says the system saves on time, oil and energy.

Is one pan enough, or should I get the RF-2E?
One pan is enough if everything you fry can share the same oil and the chip rating covers your peak. A second pan lets you keep products in separate oil, for example chips away from seafood.

Hard wired or plug and lead, which do I need?
It can be connected either way. Your electrician can tell you which suits your switchboard, and the castors make a plug and lead worth asking about if you want to roll it out to clean behind it.
