of fat-logged and soggy. This Presto CoolDaddy electric deep fryer includes
several features that help you make tasty fried chicken, fish, shrimp, and
French fries for up to six people. Its adjustable thermostat ranges from 250
to 375 degrees F, and its bright red indicator light signals when the oil
has reached the desired temperature so food cooks no longer than necessary.
A
viewing window lets you track progress without opening the cover, and an
included wire basket with an exterior handle means you can prevent spatters
by

Smart in structure, the fryer has a cool-touch exterior and a locking cover
with a push-button latch for safety. Its anti-odor charcoal air filter
removes
without hassle, and the interior cooking pot is nonstick for quick cleanup.

while
keeping small pieces in. Measuring approximately 13-1/2 by 10 by 11-1/2
inches, the cooker can be stored with the basket, handle, and cord inside.

Description 
Arguably, these are the best decks of playing cards out there for visually
impaired card players. Designed by the ophthalmologist, Dr. Gerald Marinoff,
the printing on these cards makes it easier for low vision individuals to
see the numbers and suits. The icons are over-sized, which is great for kids
or adults. But the winning feature of these cards is the 1-1/4" high numbers
and letters - and the black outline that surrounds them. This is a standard
poker-sized deck of cards, measuring 3-1/2" X 2-5/8". The cards themselves
are both durable and plastic-coted, for long-lasting play. Not only is this
set of cards priced right, but it's also the ideal way to involve low-vision
players in your games again! This listing is for two decks of cards.
