Why this countertop fryer earns its place
When you're working with tight floor space but can't compromise on output, the FriFri Frita+ 8 countertop fryer sits at the sweet spot. This 6.9 kW, 400 V three-phase unit builds on seventy years of FriFri engineering — the kind of solid, no-fuss performance that keeps venues turning consistent fried food from lunch through service. Two separate oil tanks mean you can run fish and chips without any flavour transfer, or dedicate both baths to high-volume single-product frying depending on your service rhythm.
The unit's built from stainless steel throughout, with a durable mechanical thermostat keeping oil at temperature. Measuring just 720 mm wide and 455 mm tall, it fits where larger units simply won't — and the rear-mounted slot-in lid does double duty as splashback and basket support, which saves setup time and keeps your team safe. The single-basket design per tank keeps preparation straightforward: you're managing a familiar workflow, not juggling complicated controls. With a gross weight of 28 kg, it's heavy enough to feel substantial but manageable on a reinforced counter.
Two years' standard warranty covers the unit, and if you're planning ahead, FriFri offers extended cover. The compact footprint and reliable build mean this fryer pulls its weight in venues where every centimetre counts — small fish-and-chip shops, café concessions, pub kitchens, and event setups that need serious frying capacity without the warehouse footprint.
