Meat fondue is only good for electronic devices

It is sociable and cozy when there is a pot with hot oil, broth, cheese or chocolate mixture in the middle of the table. Either a burner, i.e. a small metal bowl with fuel paste or spirit, or an electric plate provides the necessary heat for fondue. Stiftung Warentest tested ten different models ("test" issue 1/23) - and found that only three devices can be used as all-rounders for all types of fondue. Only models that specialize in one type of fondue did well.

At 80 to 265 euros, the classic burner models cost almost twice as much as the electric version at 48 to 150 euros. When it comes to frying meat or vegetables, however, only the electric devices are convincing (which also heat up more cheaply, and less problematic substances are released into the air). They are the only ones who always heat the oil hot enough, burners cannot maintain such high temperatures.

Cheese or chocolate fondue works better with burners. In principle, both systems are good: out of ten sets tested, eight received the grade "good", only two burners only achieved a "satisfactory".

Basically, the manufacturer must have approved the device accordingly. The test winner, the electrical device "Lono Fondue Set" (grade 1.7), is from WMF and is neither intended for cheese or chocolate fondue nor, according to the test, suitable. The "Kela Lancy" (2.2) scores best among the burners, but it is only suitable for cheese fondue. Traditional fondue sets intended for frying only perform satisfactorily.

According to Stiftung Warentest, anyone looking for an all-rounder for all three types of fondue has three “good” electrical devices to choose from: “Unold Elegance”, “Tefal Base Ronde EF 3000” and “Rommelsbacher F1200” (2.3 each). However, the testers point out that these sets "cut a good figure in the test laboratory", but are not among the best devices in the test.
