Exactly what I've been looking for
I wanted an electric fondue pot because I didn't want to have to deal with buying the gel fuel. Finding one that would heat evenly, and wasn't too wide was proving to be a problem. With the wide ones the cheese wouldn't set properly and cooking was uneven. This pot is cast iron so it cooks evenly, also nice is that you can cook on the stove first and then move it to the warmer. You can cook broths, cheese and dessert fondues in here as well, some pots don't allow for that option. The fake flame may be a little over the top but all in all this is a very good quality fondue pot, we have used it several times already and will get much more use out of it.
Decent but not stellar
Everything worked out of the box, so that was good. The glow light is fun. The forks that came with the set were not extendible however and did not have any color markings at the end to keep track for each person. Amazon could not get us the correct forks but gave us a discount for our trouble so we deemed that workable.
Heating time takes longer than I would like, and max temperature is not as hot as I would like, especially with the broth. It helps to preheat on the stove but that kind of takes away from the fun a little.
Maybe a second set in the future to enjoy going from main to dessert without having to clean in between.
The chocolate residue is more difficult to clean up than anticipated.
Fondue fun
Makes great chocolate fondue, haven't tried anything else yet. Well made overall, the heavy cast iron pot can preheat on the stove and heats evenly. The funky flickering light adds a little fun.
