Amazon.com Review

Elegantly designed in stainless steel, Hoffritz's deluxe fondue set is constructed to absorb heat quickly, distribute it evenly, and retain it for maximum efficiency, even at low temperatures. Chocolate, cheese, and other savory dipping sauces stay warm, rich, and creamy. Fondue is a terrific social food for holiday gatherings or family meals, and this fondue set comes with six fondue forks and a lifetime limited warranty. --Matthew Evans

Product Description

Everyone knows fondue has made a comeback, along with the VW beetle, hip huggers, and Charlie's Angels. But forget the icky harvest gold fondue set you might be able to unearth from cold storage. This stainless steel set is sleek, attractive, and up to date.

Well I dont actually have this fondue pot but I fealt I must clear the air on fondue pot usage.
The fondue pot is stainless steel. Stainless steel fondue pots are for oil based fondue. If you wish to make chocolate or cheese fondue you need to use a ceramic insert or cheese/chocolate specific fondue pots. Hoffritz along with other companies offer them.
So the above reviews about burnt cheese and chocolate well thats expected from a stainless steel fondue pot regardless of the brand. Now if the instructions or the product claim its usage is for cheese and chocolate well thats a different story.
Excluding recipe guide of course because those recipe guides are generic.

4.0 out of 5 stars Works well, but pot can be tough to clean, December 11, 2000

I've made dessert and cheese fondue with this set. Both types turned out without a problem.

However, I've had some problems getting the pot cleaned. Especially with the dessert fondue that has a tendency to scorch where the heat is applied.

The notched lid, designed to hold your forks, doesn't seem to work very well in practice. In the end, we typically remove the lid, as it gives us better access to the pot.

We have attempted both chocolate and cheese fondue in this pot and both have burned. The last time we were especially careful to constantly check the cheese and adjust the flame, but it burned anyway. The thin stainless steel pan has no pad on the bottom, and the large fuel container allows for a lot of heat. We are going to make one last attempt with this pot in hopes that it will make good broth and/or oil fondue for meat.
