Cast Iron Cheese Fondue Pot Set for 4-6 People

Replaced an old 70s fondue pot set with this one. Love it. Can use it on a low flame to make the fondue, then keep it warm over the heater. Will be getting another one to have dessert fondue without having to clean this one mid-meal.

Love this pot. Bought 4 gave one as a gift. We do fondue parties for the family. 2 cheese fondues and a chocolate. I love cast iron which is why it caught my eye. I didn't want electric because I didn't want the restriction of a cord and I wanted the authenticity of a real fondue experience. I am a caterer so I always have sterno gel on hand. I take one container of gel and spoon it into each holder of the pots and that's plenty because you don't need alot. The best part is that you can melt your cheeses or chocolate right on your stove in this pot and then transfer it to the table. I recommend turning your sternos down as low as possible because once the fondue of hot it doesn't require high heat plus it can stick. But even if it does stick i just use a scotch Brite with light Scrubbing and it comes up easy. Rub them with a little oil before storage and good to go. Enjoy.

The cast iron pot provides weight for safety against movement and potential fire issue it’s tough enough to use on the stove top to make the fondue and then transfer to the stand to keep warm and serve. The fondue forks are a bit flimsy; would have been great to match the quality of the pot & stand. Overall a great value; I bought 2 for each end of the table for easy access of party guests who loved the chocolate fondue on Valentine’s Day!

Purchased as a gift, they Loved It!! Perfect Score!

Great fondue pot. Great price, durable easy to use

Buen funcionamiento

It's well built and nicely sized. But it fails. And thus my one star. I so wanted to like this but I cannot give it any plusses since it just doesn't work. Why you say? Because as others have noted, it gets nowhere near hot enough, even when pre-heating on the stove. I tried the included gel type burner, tried another similar style alcohol burner, and even sterno. Nothing kept this hot enough to do meat fondue and barely kept chocolate in a somewhat liquid state. I've even tried looking at the little butane burners but they are all too tall to fit underneath and no way I want to prop up a pot of boiling oil just so it fits. Currently I'm looking at the tiny little butane camp stoves but most of them are too hot and have too wide a flame, and are just a little too tall requiring modification. Too bad.

Great purchase. The pot and base are of very good quality. I would recommend this product.

I love the design of this fondue dish. Even though is cast iron, is not as heavy to handle because it’s somewhat thin compared to other pans and pots… which I don’t mind in a fondue dish that obviously doesn’t get used nearly as much. The base look modern and has a big opening that allows you to slide the burners to refill them if needed. I wished it had an enameled interior because the cheese does get a bit sticky and burns much easier without that layer of protection. For now, I have to leave it soaking overnight to get rid of most of that sticky and burnt mess, and I used a silicon scrapper and a scrub brush to get rid of any stubborn mess. Remember to always rub a fine layer of oil after each time you use it.

Un peu decu . J aimais bien le format , l'esthetique , mais pour la fondue avec viandes , il ne rechauffe pas adequatement . ( Meme si je l'ai pré-chauffé au préalable ) .
