Fondue has been making a comebacj in restaurants, but I would NOT buy a fondue pot for home use. I used to a a toasted sandwich maker and actually used it quite a bit but finally gave it away. Also had a juicer which I only used maybe 5 times, then gave it to Rachel, and I doubt she ever used it. Never had a Foreman grill but was tempted - oh yes, correction, I did have a little one that I bought on sale on Amazon for 10 dollars, never used it, then sold it for 15 dollars, so that worked out OK!
I have various exercise items that have yet to be used though. And Joe bought a guitar he hasn't touched more than maybe twice for 30 minutes each time. Luckily it was a cheap guitar. He used to have a great guitar years ago that got stolen. He used to be great musician in his youth - but that was a long long time ago. At one point when we were on a tiny apartment, he had his childhood piano moved into it at a cost of several hundred dollars (when we were broke) and then never played it. What a dust magnet that was, and it took up half the living room too! Finally sold it.
And we have so many other stories like that... gah.
