    The product, in the report: Ambiano Mini Deep Fryer

    Ambiano Mini Deep Fryer. My parents bought me this fryer in late 2018 as a gift and because I love french fries. This was a college present. This product saved me a lot of money as a broke college student. As for the product, it lasted quite a while up until last month actually, that’s when I decided to clean it like I always did (very carefully). Then went and started it up. I started without oil because the inside looked a little weird (not normal), the induction circle that heated the fryer looks to be completely. So I started it up and it started smoking a bit. But then I saw that there is still burnt food in their burning off. So I cleaned that out and put a little bit of oil in to see if that would do. Within seconds I had a full-on bonfire coming out of the fryer. Now I’m in a college apartment and run outside with it. (Friends were laughing, I was mad.) The fryer burned out and was completely destroyed on the inside so I throw it away in the trash. Little did I know there was a recall on this product for this issue. So, I wanted to know if anything can be done? Thank you for your time and thought. Happy holidays!
