Title: where can I purchase a "wonder pot"?
Question: The "wonder pot" is a type of stovetop bakeware that seems to have been popular in Israel during a period of austerity. I'm looking for a (preferably USA based) supplier for a new one.  Here's a link to a page with a photo of the item in question.

text: It was all aluminum and much less complicated (and likely not as useful) as what your talking about.
text: The closest thing I found is the Omnia Oven .
text: It looks they may be had for about $50.

sents: text: You can try looking at gelatin moulds, savarin moulds, tube pans, angel food cake pans or pound cake pans, they look the same as the lower part of the wonder pot:

Summary of the answers:
This item is is imported from Israel to the USA by Weiss Gifts Ltd. in Brooklyn NYCan, but a more modern version is the Omnia Oven. However, this is an item that is considered inferior and only for people who can't afford anything better.
The Wonder Pot is still made in Israel. The Omnia Oven is also a good alternative.
