Swissmar's Electric 11-piece Fondue Set is a solid cast iron pot with a soft silicone handle. Ideal for meat, cheese or chocolate fondue. One of the unique features is the flickering light at the base that gives a soft romantic glow. Another unique feature is that both interior ends of the fork handle is threaded allowing the fork shaft to be shortened (for meat fondue) or lengthened (for cheese or chocolate fondue).

I ordered this set and thought it was great: I especially liked the removable cast iron pot with handle. However, I was not able to use it so I don't know how the "glow" looked. The electric plug attachment included with the set did not fit; it appeared to be the wrong cord. I tried everything but there was absolutely no way to connect it to power - so it had to go back. I've considered ordering again, but hesitate after being "burned" once - or perhaps I should say NOT burned, as I could not get the set plugged in to turn on at all. A real disappointment, because it seemed to be just what I was looking for.

After looking at Fondue sets in the stores I decided to give the Swissmar a try. It is more substantial than many of the pots that I saw. The one with this set is heavy cast iron and can be used directly on the stove before transferring to its heating plate. I works great!

Everything worked out of the box, so that was good. The glow light is fun. The forks that came with the set were not extendible however and did not have any color markings at the end to keep track for each person. Amazon could not get us the correct forks but gave us a discount for our trouble so we deemed that workable.
Heating time takes longer than I would like, and max temperature is not as hot as I would like, especially with the broth. It helps to preheat on the stove but that kind of takes away from the fun a little.
Maybe a second set in the future to enjoy going from main to dessert without having to clean in between.
The chocolate residue is more difficult to clean up than anticipated.

The fondue itself works fine. Instead of extendible forks, however, we received standard ones that don't even have colored caps at the ends. Called customer service and had to deal with people who are closer to robots really. They didn't seem to understand that we only had issue with the forks. This call center represented Amazon very poorly in my opinion. They hung up twice on us while waiting. Amazon might as well have an automated system whose only response is to send the entire product back and hope you get luckier on what is sent back as a replacement.

We have been looking for the perfect fondue setup for a while, most systems dont work on high heat from oil or they are very difficult to clean and dont last. This unit has it all, the cast iron pot is easy to clean and pre-heat. the splatter shield is dishwasher safe and protects the base from oil dripping. the three heat levels are choclate, cheese and oil. Unit is perfect.
Side note: this is not the fault of Swissmar, but the box I erecieved from Amazon was already opened and the forks that were included were not original but a cheap set with the color markers removed and only a single fork end rather than the mini-double pictured on the box. Getting a replacement.
