does this fryer have a drain to drain the oil?

Unfortunately, it does not. The oil has to be cooled and poured. BUT, still one of the best fryers I've ever used. We do a lot of tailgates, fundraisers, and dinners, frying fish. This moves the frying along!!

No drain you fill and dump the inside pans when you need to change or filter oil

No, and it needs tons of oil in it to be able to work. I was never able to use it.

Breville recommends that the fryer oil should be drained after each use. Likely to avoid a build up of burnt food particles on the element and the inside of the oil reservoir.I only drain mine when the oil begins to break down. Then I give the oil reservoir and the element a thorough cleaning.

You just lay the basket into the fryer there is no down position just in the fryer. It does have a drain position you hook the basket to.

At the base of the unit. The hose for draining stays cool. However I would wait a bit and let the hot oil cool down before draining. Oil drains out nicely and then you can wipe out the entire cavity with a paper towel.

Very easy to drain and clean. Definitely the best fryer I've had. I also place mine near the edge of the counter to drain the used oil into a bottle for discarding.

No, but the temp is not as advertised. I ended up throwing it out a long time ago and buying a commercial grade fryer. More money but worth the investment.

Yes. You just take the oil compartment out and there's a spout with a screw-on cap. I use a funnel and pour the oil into a clean half gallon milk jug. Unless you have a reason not to reuse the oil next time you fry, though (e.g., you fried shrimp and somebody you're serving has a shell fish allergy, so you can't use it for that meal), you can just leave it in the compartment and pour it directly into the fryer next time you use it.

It doesn't have a drain. It's kind of open though, like smaller at the base and the top opening is bigger, so it gets some air. I haven't found it too bad with the mold and such. it's nice, and easy to clean.

No it doesn't. They charge $20 for it on their site, but it's only an oil drain pan you can get for less than $7 here Custom Accessories 31118 Oil Drain Pan

Unit has a separate air connection where it pushes the used oil out. It also comes with its own drain hose and connection that you attach to drain the used oil into approved containers.

The heating element is in the cord. I did not drain oil until it cooled but dont believe you would have a problem with it.

The oil drains out of a spicket on the bottom and is very easy to drain. The unit comes apart and each section is fairly easy to clean...especially compared to other deep fryers that I've owned.
