Absolutely worth the risk, which is fairly easy to minimize by actually reading and following all the directions. Understanding the concept of displacement helps too. The thing runs off a propane cylinder. It's not too difficult to keep it far away from the house and the cars. Don't attempt to cheat the distance rule, even if it's raining. Find something else to eat and wait for a dry day. Even if you have successfully fried turkeys a dozen times before, some critical thing will go wrong on the day you move the fryer into the garage for your convenience.
Oh, and make sure that you deep fry some Pop 'n Fresh biscuits as the oil heats up, and do fries (reg. potato or sweet potato) after the bird is done.
