Product Description
For a night of easy entertaining where you can actually enjoy the company of your guests rather than slave away in the kitchen by yourself, have a fondue! If you've ever been worried that a fondue is messy or too difficult to make, you can rest assured with this stylish 14-pc. cheese fondue set with lazy susan. Made for six people, it includes one stoneware casserole, six fondue forks with color coded tips, one chrome-plated wire rack with lazy susan, four stoneware ramekins for vegetables and bread, one heat diffuser and one lock-in safety burner with an adjustable flame, safety cover and stay-cool handle. Now, you can put all of the fondue ingredients on the plates of the lazy susan and simply swivel it around in front of you instead of reaching over other guests to grab that piece of shrimp or bread! Fun, convenient and functional! The gelled fuel is sold separately and instructions and a recipe booklet are included.

This is a good set that meets our needs. The lazy susan is a nice feature, and the stand is a good safety feature. Little bulky to store, but is perfect for a family of 4.
 Has some good points, and some bad points March 25, 2007

I've been meaning to get a new fondue pot for awhile. this one happened to be part of Amazon's "4 for 3" kitchen deal they were holding, so I got it.
I like that the fondue pot and dipping trays are glazed stoneware. When I first saw the picture online, I assumed that it was plastic and when I read in the description that it was stoneware I was pretty happy about that. I don't remember if it says so or not, but I think it's definitely dishwasher safe, at least it is with my dishwasher (sans metal parts).
The metal frame comes in a couple of pieces that you have to assemble by simply fitting it together, no tools required. Unfortunately, the metal frame holding the spinning trays is actually two pieces, and this is a bit of a problem for me. It tends to wobble and be off centered, and God help you if you don't fill up all 4 trays with an even weight of food (or if someone eats from one tray faster then the others) because then it's really off center!
Also, when I first used it, I filled up the fondue pot and trays in the kitchen, with the intention of then carrying it to the table. Well.. my problem was, "how do you pick it up?" As I mentioned before, it's not very stable. It can be moved, but it's a bit cumbersome. It would probably benefit from some sort of handle. Finally, the product description mentions a "recipe booklet". This so called recipe booklet is safety instructions on using gel-fuel and then a single recipe for traditional fondue. Of course you can find plenty of recipes all over the internet, but I found it to be a bit misleading that it says, "recipe booklet".
That said, I do like the fondue set, but there are most definitely better ones out there for a similar price.
