Cuisinart Fondue Pot, 3 Quart, For Chocolate, Cheese, Broth, Oil, Stainless Steel, CFO-3SSP1

This is a nice looking pot that heats well. We use it to heat up oil for meat/veggie fondue. Absolutely a nice way to relax at a home meal. Pot heats fast and forks and pot have an attractive appearance. Also, easy to clean.

Purchased as a gift for our daughter and her family. They love it. Worked well, was easy to use & clean. They have used it for appetizers, meals & desert.

I LOVE this fondue pot!! I have owned several fondue pots over the last 20years and this is the best one yet!! It is so easy to use, easy to clean and stores nicely! I researched a lot before buying this fondue pot and I can say that its the best fondue pot out there. I have actually bought 3 of this fondue pot. My hubby and I loved it soo much that we bought it for a friends wedding who decided to have fondue for their reception. Everyone was asking where we bought, how much it was and saying how quick and easy it was to use! I think we made some sales that day! LOL..I have 2 at home since we usually do a 3 course fondue night dinner.. The clean up on the pots is soo fast, just a little soap and a quick wipe gets rid of everything which means no scrubbing between courses!! The pot heats up amazingly fast!! I think it took less than 2 min. to heat up a FULL pot of Coq Au Vin sauce for cooking our meats/seafood. Infact it was soo fast that I didn't have time to do all my preparation I ususally do when I have to wait for the sterno to heat up my old fondue pot and had to have help.I love the fact that the pot has a wide mouth to it. It allows many fondue forks to be able to be sitting in the pot at once. I think we had 5 people in one pot at the wedding which is a lot considering each person had 2 forks in the pot at once. The temperature control is fantastic!! With so many sticks in the pot, we just turned up the temperature a little and there was no waiting to cook the food because the temperature had dropped, then you have to wait for it to heat up again.I no longer have burnt Cheese fondue because I couldn't control the heat on my sterno fondue pots. I like the fact that I have a good temperature on my chocolate and it doesn't sear half of your tastebuds off because its just too hot.Oh, and I didn't mention... you can put it in the dishwasher!!!!! SOO easy. I like to wash by hand but the hubby is all about the dishwasher cleaning it. Not that it matters because everything comes off of the inside soooo easily.The only disappointment I had was the short cord, but it really wasn't a big deal since we just plugged it into an extension cord.Overall I would totally recommend this pot to someone who is wanting a great fondue pot, or someone who is scared to take the plunge for an electric fondue pot.. TOTALLY WORTH THE MONEY!!!

Bought this so we could do something a little different for Valentine's Day! When I brought it out of the box, my hubby was like WHY did you buy this, when we have one in the cabinet (it was a candle/burner type one which is way to complicated for me to figure out, so it's just sat up there for 7 years unused) I said this one is electric, and looks A LOT nicer and easier...He gave up his argument for the sake of Valentine's...So..I win! hehe anyways...it was sooo easy and the directions were also very easy to follow...I did have to turn it down to a lower setting than what the instruction book said, but no biggie. The cord is short, Our first course (the CHEESE) I didn't have the extension cord, so we ate it right at our kitchen bar...While sitting there enjoying our delicious appetizer...my hubby said..."I now understand why you bought this...this looks so easy to set up and make, and this stuff is amazing! We're definitely gonna get some use out of this! " (hate to say I told ya so but.......)We were so stuffed after the 1st course, we decided to save the main course (filet mignon and potatoes) for another night, but we absolutely had enough room for dessert!! So a little while later, i started on the CHOCOLATE! Yum! We were at that point wanting to relax in the living room and he said...can't we have it in here...let's get and extension cord and see how it works....Found one..and worked like a charm...we had it on our living room ottoman... Other reviewers said they had problems with the magnetic cord being easy to come apart...but we had no problems...we even had dogs running all around the living room with toys and such..and nothing came unplugged!Needless to say, this was wonderful for Valentine's day, and I can't wait to use it for Date nights at home and hopefully gonna have a Fondue PARTY one day soon! If you're thinking about buying this, thin no more, and just do it!PS: Clean-up was a breeze!!

Well, I no longer need to go to the melting pot to have fondue. It’s a great little fondue pot very well-made and easy to use. It heats up quickly and has these little holders on the inside for the forks to set. I like that it is stainless steel and there is a dial on the plug so you choose what temperature you want. The chocolate fondue night that we had was amazing. I gave 4 out of 5 stars because what I didn’t like was how it’s not very easy to clean. The plugs on the side are removable, but they’re bulky and it’s difficult to get it clean. I’s a good size so it’s easy to store underneath the counter when you’re not using it. I would recommend this fondue pot. It worked really well for us and I’m excited to use it again.

Why did you pick this product vs others?:Great little pot for fun family fondue night! This heats up the cheese (we’re still stuck in cheese mode) so quickly! You can do chocolate, meat, all kinds of good stuff in this little beauty. I gave this to my husband for selfish reasons. Haha!

This fondue pot worked very well for my family’s cheese fondue night. I love how it’s electric and very easy to use, though I would recommend having an extension cord handy because the cord doesn’t stretch very long. It came with skewers and everything I needed, and I loved how you could make the whole recipe right in the pot. The temperature control was also very effective and heated the cheese evenly, and the stainless steel design made it easy to wash. I would fully recommend this pot for a fun family dinner, and I can’t wait to try chocolate next!
