Swissmar Lugano Cast Iron Cheese Fondue Set, 9-Piece, 2 QT / 2 L - Ideal for Melting Cheese, Chocolates, Caramel, & More - Perfect for Kitchen Collection & Gift Giving - Deep Blue

We have a stainless fondue for meats and love it. This Swissmar fondue for cheese is excellent quality. I use the pot on my stove to melt and prepare the cheese and it easily transfers to the fondue pot holder for serving. The metal base of which it sits is sturdy - no chance of it tipping over. I placed the pot and holder on a trivet to safeguard my table just in case the burner got hot - but it did not. The porcelain covered cast iron is heavy which keeps the pots heated and cheese melted. The pot is very easy to clean. I used the recipe in the box and it is plenty for four people. Other recipes are on the internet if you want something different but the Swissmar recipe is very good. HINT: If you want to use the fondue pot right away upon receipt, make sure you buy the recommended fuel cans at the same time. None come with the pot. You will not be disappointed.

Swissmar truly is the best cheese fondue pot brand. I'm Swiss so I know what real fondue pots are supposed to look like and how they're supposed to function. You need to be able to cook the fondue on the stove then transfer the pot to the fondue burner; this pot works perfectly and looks great. Swissmar also includes a fondue recipe that isn't perfect but is great for fondue beginners. A tip I definitely recommend though is to buy the fondue fuel online too, it's the blue fondue gel; it's very hard to find in the average supermarket, and the one most commonly found is the kind you have to scoop out of a can which isn't as good and a total pain in the butt.There are a few irks that I feel I must list though:1. The pot handle looks different from the picture, it's not completely round, but shaped like a half-moon: the top is round, but the bottom is flat.2. The fondue forks included aren't really the typical fondue forks, they're fatter and have three prongs. (They are the ones pictured, though.)Still, don't let these turn you off. This is best, most traditional Swiss cheese fondue on the market at such a reasonable price. I'm a student so I was thinking about just buying a cheap fondue pot, but I'm glad I invested in a slightly pricier model. I'll have this for years!

I grew up in Switzerland and finally decided to purchase an authentic fondue pot. This is the kind I grew up using and it did not disappoint! The pot it’s self is heavy sturdy cast-iron with a lovely glaze that makes it super easy to clean even without soaking it first! This was the primary reason I wanted a new fondue pot: the old one was so difficult to clean even after soaking it overnight.The burner is a standard gel fuel burner that is super easy to use because it’s either on all the way or on low and you simply move the metal handle left or right to adjust the heat. You can either fill it with individual gel packages or else hand fill it with a bottle of gel: either option is super easy and simple to use.Some people have complained that the forks that come with the set are not traditional Swiss fondue forks, and while that is accurate, I actually really like these: the wooden handles feel good in your hand and the extra times on the fork make it easier to keep the bread on it while stirring.

Heats evenly, sturdy. Made well and looks great.My family loves fondue. We lost three fondue pots in a house fire. We tried this one for the first time and it is the best fondue pot I have ever used. It looks like it could last forever.

I love this fondue pot. The pot itself is very sturdy and looks lovely. The weightiness of the pot feels like it will last for years and years. If you're short on kitchen storage space, it would also make a lovely sauce pan for every day use. The pot cleans up very easily and scraping the cheese off the bottom at the end of fondue was super easy plus it was delicious.The fondue base is also well made and sturdy. I love that it uses the fire gel instead of candles or something else. You can put in exactly how much you think you'll use and it holds a steady flame. Not having a cord made it easier to use in the center of my table without worrying someone would get up and trip over a cord. I also liked being able to start the fondue on the stove in this post and then transfer it to the heat base.This set is a little pricier than a lot of the other sets, but the quality level is worth it.

This is the first product review I have ever felt compelled to write. My family has been having cheese fondue on Christmas eve for about 40 years. We have been using an old fondue pot that was my mothers and while serviceable, it had a tendency to scorch on the bottom. Since my daughter has been hosting Christmas eve at her home and also frequently entertains friends, I decided to get her a fondu set this year. I read all the reviews of the various sets offered here and decided to purchase this Swissmar set. We used it tonight and were so pleased with it? The quality of all the pieces is superb and the two quart capacity is wonderful. The heat distribution was fabulous with no scorched areas at all and simple clean up! We all loved it and my daughter was thrilled and is already planning her first party with friends.This set is worth every penny!

Cast iron construction equals quality. It is nicely enameled with cream interior and cherry red exterior. Super pleased and impressed by this product. I highly recommend this fondue set if you are wanting something similar to Swiss authenticity. I consider this a legacy product that can be passed onto future generations which is testament to its build quality.

Advertised as coming with 6 fondue forks. None to be found inside the box. Not ideal when trying to host a fondue party

Schnelle Lieferung. Und sehr hochwertiges Produkt. Bin zufrieden mit dem Kauf

Great quality, easy to clean, cheese not burning on the bottom - had multiple great fondues!
