What is the minimum amount of oil that can be used?

Between the "low" and "high" mark inside the pan that holds the oil is 2.5 liters or 2.64 quarts. You don't want your food sitting in oil with the basket in the up position so the best idea is to fill until the oil level sits just under the basket.

what are the dimensions of the basket?

7 X 9 X 3........with 3 being the depth.

Has anyone tested the max temperature that the oil gets? What is that temp?

When set to 375, I got 345. Not real happy.

is the power cord magnetized/polarized? or is it the standard power cord?

Yes, it is magnetized, as most of these fryers have.
