Is Presto worth buying?

We would skip 1: Presto FryDaddy Electric Deep Fryer (05420).

The Best Pressure Canners: 4 Compared (and One to Skip) · Home & Kitchen
Presto Precise 12-Quart Digital Pressure Canner
A countertop electric canner that senses temperature rather than pressure, holds 240 degrees F, the temperature Presto cites for safe home pressure canning, on its own, and needs no elevation adjustment.
Best for: Apartment canners, anyone whose cooktop cannot safely take a heavy canner, and people well above sea level who would rather not manage altitude pressure adjustments by hand.

The Best Home Deep Fryers: 4 Compared (and One to Skip) · Home & Kitchen
Presto FryDaddy Electric Deep Fryer (05420)
A cheap, cheerful classic, but with no temperature control, no basket, and no timer you're frying blind.
Why we skip it: No temperature setting - the maker says it maintains frying temperature automatically, so you cannot adjust it for different foods
