It depends on the size of the can; small cans will burn for 45 minutes. They can burn for up to 2 1/2 hours if they are large.
what is the total number of chafing dishes included in the set?
The small pans are 9 inches wide and 9 inches long. 25 in Width x 2 in Height 5 inches deep by 11 inches wide The length of the piece is 75 centimeters. Inside the large pan, two small pans can fit. (comes with three large pans and six smaller pans to fit inside) Additional pans can be purchased for a low price at Walmart. The sternos and serving utensils are excellent (it also includes three holding wire racks for the pans). This item is available at a great price. Because I don't know what kind of food you'll be putting in it, it's difficult to say how many people it can serve.
There are no lids included.

We needed chafing kits for our wedding reception, and these were a great deal when compared to local stores. The servers had no trouble putting them together, and they kept the food warm for about two hours. We saved the racks and threw out the pans after the wedding, which took 5 hours. If we needed to use the pans again, we could buy more for $10 at a local store. br>br>Recent changes: br>br> br>We used these again for Thanksgiving at our large family gathering, and they worked perfectly to keep everything warm (since no one could arrive at the same time). I'm glad we didn't throw these away after the wedding. Yes, additional pans cost around $7-$8. 8 can be found at a dollar store or Walmart.
It made me wonder why I waited so long to purchase this product, as it makes hosting "a piece of cake. ".
The party kit was extremely comprehensive, including all of the necessary items. My only gripe was that the aluminum trays were extremely thin and had been squashed or bent as a result of the packaging and the material's thinness. The fuel cans burned well and the racks were sturdy. We used everything in the kit except the serving aluminum trays, which we replaced with Costco trays, and sat down to a very warm/hot Thanksgiving dinner for the first time, serving 16 people. The concept is great, but the serving trays are flimsy.
Everything is in one box, making it ideal for a party. 2 grievances: br>br> **First and foremost, when filled with soup, the serving tins are a little flimsy. Once it's in the rack, it holds it securely, but once it's full, I couldn't walk with it. It would fold up and spill if I carried it alone, so I had to double it up and take out the second tin once I got it to the rack. **Second: The large tins that were used to store the water aren't exactly re-usable. usable. After just one use, they become extremely burnt and black on the inside. The tins can be found at the dollar store, so it's not a big deal. The racks, on the other hand, are fantastic and certainly reusable! The fire burned for a long time, and the serving utensils are exactly what you would expect.
Because we had to endure cold food at a previous holiday party, we ordered this to host some of ours. These were extremely successful. Everything is included in this package. Except for the small half-trays (which were easily replaceable), the trays and metal holders were all very sturdy. The serving utensils were definitely one-time use, but the metal holding trays could be reused for future parties; all we needed to do was replace the propane cans. The one provided was fine, but it was only lit for two hours; I would recommend buying it if you want hot food at a reasonable price compared to the other buffet listings on here.
I bought two sets the first year. I've had great success washing and reusing the containers, and it's so convenient to only have to replace the heat canisters. The containers that go in the water pan are great for holding food, but they're also great for stuffing with "take-home" food for our visitors - All you have to do now is cover it with foil and voila - you've got yourself a finished product. There's no need to buy any more storage bins! I'm pretty sure I could have gotten away with using the set for all three years we've had our open house if we hadn't sent people home with the inserts. br>br>These are well worth the (excellent! You'll wonder where they've been all your life at this price!! In terms of entertainment, this is a game changer.
This kit is extremely useful. It is ready to use right away. We've already used the wire frames for the chafing dishes on two occasions and they're very sturdy. It also comes with sternos to keep your food warm while it is being served. The serving spoons are a little flimsy and aren't designed to serve anything particularly heavy, but they are functional and reusable.
I threw my fiancé's birthday party and bought a lot of bbq. Everything stayed warm until the guests arrived, thanks to the side dishes. Totally my fault, but I let the flames burn for the duration of the party, and some of the food was actually burned (I only say this to demonstrate that it works). Because I don't have the space, I threw most of the items away, but you could definitely wash and reuse them; you'd just need to buy new flame!.
