This is a great fondue pot -- heavy Le Creuset porcelain coated cast iron heats evenly, first on the stove (or in a hot water bath for chocolate), then maintains a good table temp once you move it to its own burner. At 2 quarts, it's big enough for a table full of party munchers, as a first course, a winter snack, a desert, or a main course.

Best of all, it cleans up easily like all the heavy Le Creuset -- staying crisp-clean so it looks brand new every time you use it.

My only reservation -- and it's a small one -- is that it doesn't come with its own made-to-fit trivit or table-protecting tray. First because there is no built in protection for the tabletop from the heat of the burner, and then because there is no extended surface to protect from drips. Of course, any trivit, lazy susan, or table cloth with fix these problems.

I've made 3 kinds of cheese fondue, and hot green chili queso dip, and a simple pot of chocolate fondue for sponge cake and fruit bites and the results were all simple and wonderful.
