It is the perfect size for our small family of three. It retains heat well, uses less oil than larger ones do (only 3 cups), melts chocolate like a dream (and without scorching), is less expensive to operate because you can use liquid fuel instead of the costlier gel (which doesn't get as hot), and is made well in general. I like the way the handles are made of enameled cast iron and can endure the same temperature as the whole fondue pot and won't deteriorate before the pot will. Plus, the handles extend from the fondue pot adequately to allow you to carry it securely from oven/stove to burner. They do get hot though so be sure to use potholders. The base plate is made of grooved cast iron and helps to stabilize the rechaud. It is not dishwasher safe, nor are the edges around the top of the pot sealed with enamel, which means you'll have to handwash and dry the set when you're through, but it cleans up well and shouldn't rust if you care for it properly. I initially ordered a Swissmar Montblanc (selling for more through Amazon and substantially more through other Amazon stores) and feel this product is superior in workmanship. I wouldn't hesitate to buy this again and I think you'll be pleased too (especially if you're looking for value for your dollar). Rating: 5 / 5 I love this fondue set!

It is very stable, easy to fill the fuel burner(fuel IS easy to find at any hardware store or big box store), and a breeze to clean up. The cast iron pot holds heat evenly and well. It is a great value-I bought two! Rating: 5 / 5 I would recomend the Rachel Ray fondue pot to anyone interested in revivng a fun dining experience doing fondue!

We did a lot of fondue in my house growing up and we had one of the old Swiss copper ones which meant my mom had to make the fondue in a sauce pot THEN transfer the finished product to the copper pot. This one from Ms. Ray goes from stove to table all in one!!! I have used it about 15 or so times since I got it a year ago and it's great fun every time!! Do purchase this pot. . . trust me. I'm a fondue expert. Rating: 5 / 5 Man that lady gets on my last nerve but the fondue pot is OUTSTANDING!!
