Just like old times...

"Who doesn't remember those extended dinners in the 70's, sitting around the candlelit dining table as your meal sizzled and cooked right there in front of you in vintage colored fondue pots? Crate and Barrel's enameled cast iron pot is the perfect throwback to the good ol' days. We have so enjoyed our long meals and lively conversations while we wait for each morsel of meat or veggie to cook, or to find something new that we should dip into our cheese mixture. The kids love it and no doubt in 30 years will be telling their kids about this fabulous product and the fun times they had with it!"

Great Gift

"Bought this as a Christmas present for my sister and her boyfriend - they love to entertain and try out new recipes. My sister and I had a delicious chocolate fondue in Paris that inspire this purchase. They love it - I just wish the handles on the fondue fork were wooden instead of plastic. Can't beat the price though."

Great Fondue Set

"After having amazing cheese fondues in Switzerland, my boyfriend and I wanted to replicate the experience at home. This fondue set was perfect, and the closest thing we found to the sets we used in Switzerland. We have loved making cheese fondue with it, which is really quite easy and so tasty with the right cheese and dry white wine! I bought it as a gift for my Mom this past Christmas, and she also loves it. The Crate and Barrel chocolate fondues are also quite good!"

Fun for All!

"We changed things up this past year and went fondue for desert for Christmas. Chocolate is always good, but it was so much more fun this way! The kids and adults all loved being able to dip their favorites into the chocolate pot. We used strawberries, pineapples, apples, pretzels, and pound cake. Something for everyone. Loved this - i recommend it to liven up any party when everyone gets lazy after dinner!"

Very good, read directions first

"We received this as a gift from our wedding registry and had a fondue night. This is a great quality heavy duty cast iron pot, so it should last a long time. Impressed with the quality so far. Read the directions first as you have to season the pot in the over. ALSO, I totally learned that you actually dont melt the chocolate in the pot, but on the stove, and the fondue pot just keeps it warm. If you melt it in the pot, it will burn because the heat is very hot on this thing.
great fondue pot, recommended!"

Quality fondue set

"This is a high quality fondue set for the price. We have used it for both cheese and chocolate fondues, and it worked well. It's big enough to make fondue when having friends over. I would recommend it."

Love It!

"I had not been in C&B for many years. (I am making up for it now)
After using a fondu pot purchased in Switzlerand, 43 yrs ago, I felt I needed a new one.
I saw this pot in the store, and decided this was it. There were several on display. The sales gal stated that she wld get one from the back, boxed up. When I got home I was horrified to find it was a different pot. I rushed back to the store only to find that there was none left. Anyway, I waited acouple of weeks and finally got it.
I love it! Cleans up nicely, easy to store and easy to use.
This happened around xmas time.

A fantastic fondue pot at a fantastic proce

"I've been looking for an enameled cast iron fondue pot for some years now, however didn't want to spend $150 for one. I was slightly dubious about this $40 fondue pot – how could it be so cheap?? But it is a fantastic buy. It looked as though it wouldn’t hold a full recipe of cheese fondue – but it does. The stand design is perfect – no chance of rocking or shifting. Soak it over night and it cleans easily. The handles are wide enough to feel secure walking from the stove top to the table top. There were a couple of chips on the enamel (occurring during shipping) but it hasn’t rusted yet. I’ve used this pot 4 times and it appears to be just as good as a Le Creuset."
