Nostalgia FPS6AQ 6-Cup Electric Fondue Pot with Adjustable Temperature Control 8 Color-Coded Forks, Cool-Touch Handles, Perfect for Chocolate, Cheese, Caramel, Aqua

This is a cute little pot with a nice appearance, with the word "cute" being the operative word. It's about half the size of a typical fondue pot, which is hard to tell from the photo or the description. This isn't always a bad thing, though. Its small size makes it easy to transport and fill the pot to make it appear as if there is enough food, making it ideal for a small gathering or as one of many appetizers at a party. As one of the primary pots for large crowds- It's just a tad on the small side. However, after attempting to remove the cheese from this pot, I discovered that after scrubbing to remove the cheese-like substance, 1) I should have sprayed the pot to keep the cheese from sticking to the bottom; 2) I think I'd prefer a nonstick pot. However, that is only my opinion. It's a nice-looking small pot, and many people enjoy cooking with stainless steel; however, in this situation, it's not for me!.

No meat or oil fondue can be made with this. This is ideal for me because the space is limited. (It's simple to keep track of. ) ) It's for four people. a maximum of six servings The maximum heat setting is 350 degrees, and it clearly states on a sticker on the bottom that it is NOT for oil cooking. If you want to make a meat fondue, this is a disadvantage. But it's fine for cheese and dessert fondues. br>I like how the pot can be removed completely. The pot is not dishwasher safe, despite being stainless and easy to clean. Because the pot handles are of poor quality, I made sure to use pot holders. I have a small cast iron crepe pan that fits perfectly on the base, allowing it to be used as a chaffing warmer on a buffet. I'm sure it could also be used to keep gravy warm. The forks are of average quality (again, a little on the cheap side), and the "fork ring" is also of average quality (but fine), and it can be removed from the pot (which I haven't done yet).

Because I did everything in the pot rather than using a saucepan to melt the cheese, it was quick and easy. It took a long time to clean the burnt cheese (I had to soak it). After the first use, the handle broke off.

Everything is in order. I have two of these, as well as a Cuisinart (so we can make broth, cheese, and chocolate). I got these because Cuisinart wouldn't ship in time, and I'm glad I did. Overall, they appeal to me more. The fork resting lids stay in place, and they're a little smaller, so the broth is a little deeper, making it easier to cook meat in. br>I am extremely pleased!.

I melted the chocolate, added the other ingredients, and blended it all together with a whisk. I kept it at a temperature of five or six degrees for the entire time, and cleanup was a breeze! Look at the picture, it was delicious. I am overjoyed with this, and you will be as well. The next dish will be cheese fondue, which I am confident will also turn out perfectly!!.

This gave me a lot of hope. It was cheese fondue for our Christmas Eve dinner. I followed the directions to the letter and ended up with a lump of EXPENSIVE cheese swimming in wine; as another reviewer stated, it either gets scalding hot or so cold that it barely warms. There's no middle ground here. No indication is given in the instructions as to which number on the dial corresponds to which temperature (i. e. It's just a guess (five for medium heat, eleven for high heat). So, if it says to start with medium heat, you can just guess what number to use. We ended up scraping the whole batch, and thankfully I had some Velveeta on hand to save the day, but even that was nearly impossible to melt in this machine. Who knows if I got a bad one, but it's difficult to give this a positive review when it technically works, albeit poorly.

My husband and I read a lot of reviews about how certain three or four mini crock pot sets work well as fondue pots. As a result, you'll be able to have three different options. Four different pots of cheese and dips for fondue night, but this isn't true; crock pots, regardless of brand, never get hot enough to hold dips and cook things. Some get hot enough to cook, but not to this level, so after a long search for a good fondue pot, we settled on this one. We tried a few fondue pots and a couple of triple dipper crock pots before settling on this one, which heats up quickly, doesn't burn, and cooks evenly. br>br>We used to have an old fondue pot from the 1970s, and our first fondue night with this new pot was the best fondue experience we'd ever had. If you want to do this, the cord is long enough to set up fondue on your coffee table in the living room while watching a good movie. Also, we like wine sauces, cheese sauces, soy sauces, and other sauces that are easy to burn and cause a lot of smoke in the house, and with this new pot, we were able to heat them all up to their various heat levels without burning or smoking ourselves out. This is a fantastic fondue pot!.

I was on the fence about doing it. I didn't want to get my wife a gift that would cause her trouble. Aside from that, she's a terrible cook, so this was a bit of a stretch. br>br>To my surprise, she not only knows how to use it, but she also enjoys it. For a group of 6 to 10 people, this pot is ideal. She appreciates how simple it is to clean the pan. So far, the quality seems to be good. It will warm up to the appropriate temperature and can be easily controlled to accommodate cheese, chocolate, and everything in between. I'm excited for brines, but we haven't yet tackled that one. br>br>So far, it's been a great addition to our kitchen and social gatherings. Based on my prior experience, I have no reservations in recommending it.
