I also had a delonghi covered pressure fryer like this one http://www.amazon.com/DeLonghi-D677U...131423&sr=1-24
and it worked really well and cleanup was a lot easier. Also, before fried food got eliminated from my diet. Made great hot wings among other things and a lot safer to use.

My dad had one of these in his restaurant many years ago. Made the best chicken ever.

Here is the link to WearEver. I am sure you could find any info from them. They have a toll free number also.

A friend of mine has a chicken fryer pressure cooker and he does make the best fried chicken I have ever eaten. My husband wanted me to get whatever machine our friend has but I declined. I prefer to go out for fried food. (Besides the smell that hangs in the house - we just don't eat much fried food anymore.)

I am not a quilter. I only signed on to say I paid $8.00 for my Wear-Ever Chicken Bucket used.
They are discontinued for fear of product liability. The Sealing Gasket Ring is also discontinued.

I have found the Presto 09908 pressure cooker seal to be nearly identical to the discontinued Wear-Ever 990024-3-8-1 chicken bucket seal.

The only difference I have noticed is that the Presto is slightly thinner and more flexible.
I do not know about the heat rating.
Of course Presto states that their seals are designed Only for their pressure cookers.

I love home fried chicken. But it’s too messy and smelly for me fix that. Now, if I could something like this, I might give it another try.

Please don’t try to,pressure fry in any pressure cooker - except this one. Go to the link at the near top of these messages and you will find the important information about me ee pressure frying in any other pressure cooker.

I was wrong. I thought the Presto 09908 gasket would work, but it does not.

Must be that slight difference in thickness, or the extra flexibility. Though the diameter is the same, it does not stay put in the lid.
