1. DANS BACK BABY

2. I have one of those fry baskets, of you use the right size pan they fold outwards and stay in place.

3. the splatter guard forgot about short people and it might be both hard to see and hard to take stuff out for them

4. I LOVE my Frywall and I'm happy to see it got a high rating. It's the only splatter guard that continues working while flipping the food, which is when it splatters the most. A simple, ingenious invention.

5. I SEE DAN, I CLICK!!!!!

6. How about we learn how to use a gadget before trying to review it. At very least read the instructions.

7. do any of the products take your advice and change their designs?

8. My engineering design course showed a video of him talking about the importance of design the other day. I was very surprised to see his face on the board when I walked in.

9. I can’t believe and missed a pun with the deep fryer kit… we are… GOLDEN!

10. But where's the oil test?

11. Hey it's the left-handed oil test guy.

12. What were they smoking when designing the fry-clip?? "We'll make one side wide and covered in a screen that barely drains at a reasonable speed and the other side is going to be a quarter the diameter right in the middle of it and you use it like tongs!"

13. That first basket we've never used as a fryer, we use it for steaming, and straining. I would never use it for frying, lol.

14. The last set is actually known as a tempura frying pot. It's used with the 2-in-1 tongs or chopsticks, depending on which food is being fried.
    I have never seen a tempura pot being used in tandem with any kind of frying baskets – makes absolutely no sense since the opening is small. The only ”basket” would be a skimmer to remove any loose bits during batches.

15. Chickens can't fly but they sure can fry

    my motivational quote for today
    thankyou

16. for the first one, i bet the entire top ring is intended to be outside the pot, like the pot has a smaller diameter

17. Yey! Another Dan video!
    The first one isn't a frying gadget! My grandma used to have one. She used it to swing lettuce dry and to store (hanging on a nail ) things like apple or walnuts. It also had red rubbery stuff on the handles so you could use them as a stand.

18. Are they specifically picking products that Dan will not do the left handed oil test on?

19. Cool

20. I don't think the intention of the fry basket is to fold in. It looks like you're supposed to fold it out and those fins would hold it up in the pot, then the handles would be outside of the oil and be relatively easy to grab. Looking around a couple similar amazon listings I see pictures of just that, the handles folded out.

21. Dan is baaaaaaaack ❤️❤️❤️❤️

22. 5 for splatter guards usability? Should've tried frying a fish. It doesn't work. lol

23. Shame about the 2 in 1 I was thinking of buying one but not anymore

24. I love this guy.

25. The fact the fries jumped out of the basket means you put too much oil in the pot.

26. I would redesign the splatter guard to be placed on the outside of the pan to avoid loosing space inside

27. It would have been more reasonable to compare the Frywall to a deeper pan – that's something that you already have in your kitchen, and it's more comparable in terms of functionality.

28. I am missing my left handed oil test.

29. Dan you are amazing, you always make my day.

30. I love the usability section, and I must say I miss the left-handed oil tests. It feels like he does them very seldom lately, but they were my favourite part because they made me see issues I would've never thought of otherwise
    Dan is sure an experienced designer, and can easily point deficiencies out, but I think seeing him actively struggle and say where the device hurt his hands was actually very useful
