This sturdy little gadget is no toy (I bought the Boska Holland Partyclette Explore Mini Raclette, Black). It works really well and makes nice bubbling hot cheese right next to my breakfast, lunch, dinner plate in minutes, or at my campsite. No need for a cumbersome raclette grill to drag out, set up and find an extension cord to plug into.It comes with a spatula and 3 tealights, and though it does melt cheesel, it melts very slowly, and doesn't bubble the way I like. So I made an easy improvement and added a 4th tealight (short metal cup type) and VOILA!, I had pefect bubbly melted cheese in just a couple of minutes! So, I suggest 4 tealights instead of only 3 for cheese. If you're going to melt chocolate, I think 3 tealights would be perfect though.I love that it's light weight and the base folds up, as does the handle, for compact storage. This will be easy to carry on our many hiking trips this summer, or in the motorhome off-grid. Set-up is beyond easy, and the sturdy base holds the cheese pan securely. Someone commented that the base sides keep falling down. I haven't had this issue. I think it's because maybe they didn't snap them into position with a gentle push outward on each side. They do stay in position then.I also like that the pan itself can be placed directly onto a BBQ grill or hot coals at our campsite to melt the cheese. One of the reasons I wanted one without a wooden handle, it's non combustible and versatile!My favorite recipe so far is melting some aged havarti and goat cheese and then serving it "American-style" on a flour tortilla. I prepare a flour tortilla by cutting into 4 wedges and then toast for a minute in my toaster oven until puffed-up and crispy. Then top each wedge with melted cheese, green pepper, onions, cilantro and a sprinkle of Adobo seasoning - . OMG, soo good!!This is among my favorite Amazon surprise finds. Recommend.

Sides don’t want to stand up, but that was easily solved with just a bit of bamboo I snipped from the yard to jam in along one of the short sides. It’s about 2 5/8” wide. Anything relatively stiff you can cut to that length will work for the same purpose, like a piece of scrap wood or even just a plastic drinking straw would work.Otherwise it works great. Cheese melted fine with the three tea light candles and slid off easily.
