Moulinex started out as a French company, producing kitchen and other small electrical appliances in 1937. Its founder, Jean Mantelet, was inspired to create a vegetable peeler after his wife served him a lumpy puree one day. The company was renamed after an electric coffee grinder introduced in 1956 that became one of its best-selling devices. Product lines were expanded, and Moulinex became one of the largest domestic appliance makers in France throughout the 1960s.
By the 1990s the company had fallen upon hard times, and in 2001 after a period of bankruptcy, it was sold to its main French rival, SEB, who also own Tefal. |

Product Description
The large 2.2 Litre oil capacity and 1.2kg food capacity allows for family sized frying anytime. The permanent stainless steel filter allows you to fry with the lid on and the viewing window lets you easily see when your chips are ready. No more hassle either with cleaning, as all non-electrical parts including the lid are dishwasher safe! For the stylish but space poor consumer, the Supralys fryer with its compact minimalist design, in modern stainless steel, will sit comfortably even on the smallest of work tops whilst still having the cooking capacity for those who like to entertain.

Was good while it lasted..... August 18, 2009

I got this around 3 years ago and only used it once or twice per month. It's true the basket is small - you can only get enough chips for 2 people really but I found that they cooked well enough. The problem I had was although it wasn't used much and was well maintained the electrics blew totally after only 3 years. Not awful but not great either.....

Fryer ok for the price but has it's faults. You can't raise the food out of the oil without removing it completely cos the basket sits at an angle so some of the food carries on cooking. Also cooks way above temperature and not easy to clean as you can't take apart.
 Delicious, Fast and Easy To Use November 29, 2008

Within 10 minutes of it being opened, we had it heated, ready to go and a pile of freshly cut potatoes sitting besides it ready to be cooked.
The chips took just over 5 minutes to go golden brown and crispy, and were simply delicious.
To those of you who claim to not be able to cook decent chips in this, then your not using it right. Don't follow the instruction manuals times and just go with your eye (and nose).
A great buy for all chip fans.
 Terrible (its only really 0.6kg capacity) March 1, 2008

Just received this. I haven't even switched it on and its going back.
The big letters on the box read 1.2kg of chips and in smaller letters it reads In 2 fryings. This means its only 0.6kg of food.
The fry basket is permanently tilted with a raised dimple on the bottom plate meaning you would have to mess about with the basket contents otherwise half your food would still be raw.
The mis-representation of the capacity just proves the point to me that this product is not up to scratch as if it was, then Moulinex would not need to resort to small print in the features.
