Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of Calphalon Professional Hard Anodized Fondue Set with 6 Forks
Customer Review: Hard to keep lit and very hard to clean
Summary: 1 Stars
Got this as a gift. Getting the burner started was hard as the wire mesh wasn't all the way down on the bottom, and it's still not easy and usually requires a number of retries. Once lit, the fuel capacity is way too small - when you have a meat fondue, you have to refill about three times while you're eating. Cleaning out the remains of a cheese fondue is extremely hard, takes at least 15 minutes. It may be anodized, but it sure is not non-stick. The stand and burner started rusting, after four months.
Description of Calphalon Professional Hard Anodized Fondue Set with 6 Forks
This fondue set conveys rustic conviviality and industrial ruggedness. Made of heavyweight aluminum that's been anodized for hardness and stick-resistance, the charcoal gray, matte-finish pot holds and warms melted cheese or chocolate, broth, and oil fondues. Its jaunty handles, splatter guard, and stand are polished stainless steel. The set's six stainless-steel forks step down in length from 10-1/2 inches to 10-1/4 inches, and their stay-cool plastic handles are molded to depict a fish, a lamb, a pig, a steer, a lobster, and a duck. Notches in the splatter guard hold each fork in place. Two chrome-plated handles provide safety when you're lifting the pot from stovetop to stand. (Fondues must begin on the stove, because burner fuel isn't hot enough to heat oil or broth fondues to the proper starting temperatures.) The pot holds about 5 cups of broth or 2 cups of oil. The pot and stand are 8-1/2 inches high. --Fred BrackFondue
