Best 5 Fondue Pots in 2022 Reviewed

We like to make sure that we are showing you the best there is on the market for these reviews, so we do the research for you. When possible, we use the items ourselves and give you our first-hand opinions. When we can't, we scour the web for all the latest information, including the complete set of specs and features for the items as well as looking at pros and cons from real, verified customers. We compare prices from around the web and choose items with the best warranties available to make sure that you get the best product for your money.

Fondue sets can be purchased for as little as $15 or for as much as $70, depending on the brand and style. Be sure to have your party size in mind when making your decision. Having to refill and remelt your delicious sauces in the middle of the party can be a hassle and a big disappointment!

As you can see, there are plenty of options when it comes to choosing the perfect fondue set for your situation. The larger Cuisinart CFO-3SS was our favorite due not only its size but its versatility. No one says you must fill the pot to the brim when serving your guests, and if you have the room on the table, this can be used for more intimate gatherings or far large shindigs with many people participating.

For the smaller pots, we adore Boska Holland set. It's elegantly understated, and perfect for serving two people. The other pots can fit as a centerpiece as well, but the Boska just has the intimate feel that can not be beaten. The only reason that we put it as last on the list is that this model has been discontinued. A new version will be available soon, though, so keep an eye out for our review of that model when it comes available.

Now for heating options. As you can see, these pots can be heated electrically, making these sets essentially slow cookers. The advantage here, of course, is there is less of a fire hazard, especially where children are involved. With the open flame burners, an eye must be kept on the flame and anything around the pot to make sure that no accidents happen. We recommend designating someone to be on fire watch just in case. That being said, the design of the VonShef is hard to beat if you're going for a retro style. Just make sure you don't forget to buy the fuel before the party starts!

Whichever pot you choose to make that next party feel fresh and new, you cannot go wrong with these five options. Sure, we liked the size and features of the Cuisinart the best, but your needs (and your budget) may call for something simpler like the Hamilton Beach model. The fun part of these less expensive models is that they're often the dishwasher safe versions, while the more expensive sets will require more attention to clean. That's why we put it on the list. It is a great little fondue set for under $, so you can add the fun and excitement (yes, excitement!) of fondue to your party without breaking the bank.

Just remember, you can not spell fondue without f, u, or n. No matter how you go about setting up your spread, keep in mind all those happy faces you will see gathered around your buffet table. Keep in mind the light in that special someone's eye for those more intimate settings. Last, but certainly not least, remember to take pictures during your next party to make all those people who weren't able to make it jealous!
