Expert Reviews


What reviewers liked

The brand's DuraCeramic coating resists stuck on food making it easy to clean
What’s also great about this product is that it has a magnetic breakaway cord for safety and it’s PFOA and PTFE free.
It comes with a titanium-infused pot which is nonstick, cooks faster up to 30% and also energy saving. This pot is completely PTEF, PFOA-free, does not peel or flake and too easy to clean.
It distributes heat evenly for fast and safe heating. It also has an adjustable temperature and eight fondue forks (plus a wring holder) that last for years.
-
The set has a breakaway cord which prevents the cable from tangling and causing an accident. The cord is also magnetic, so it breaks off easily. That’s especially helpful in case you happen to trip on the cable.
Provides removable, adjustable temperature control

What reviewers didn't like

Doesn't have a wide range of heat settings
​Some cord complaints
Some users say the temp does not stay constant.
Even though this fondue set works great for cheese and chocolate fondues, it’d be best to skip the hot oil variation. Since the pot opening is quite broad, it allows oil to spit on your hands, clothes and surrounding objects, causing possible burns and a huge mess.
Some say that it’s heavy
