I would never fry with olive oil it burns I do not fry very often but when I do I use rapeseed oil or coconut oil

I think we are having two different conversations the question was what's the best oil to put in a deep fat fryer. The problem with expensive oil is, well, it's expensive. Once it's heated up at high temperatures for an extended amount of time you may as well just burn your money.

Yes but what is best is not of necessity what is cheapest.
 
The op asked the question what is the best or more healthy option not what is the most economical which would probably be the vegetable or sunflower oils she had been using already at times when cooking chjps for partner.

I don't believe paying for cold pressed oil to deep fry is the best option as the additional benefit does not justify the greater cost. I don't go to work in a helicopter for a similar reason.
Rapeseed oil stands up well to heat. Sunflower oil should be avoided. My first suggestion was an air fryer, the cheap rapeseed option was to try and help, not start an argument.
