Great chocolate fountain! December 31, 2007 2 out of 2 found this review helpful
Heavy-duty fountain fed 35 people easily. The chocolate we used was a bit thick, so we added chunks of cocoa butter. The unit melted them down easily and allowed the chocolate to thin down. (We did them same thing with chocolate in a $30 unit, and a piece of cocoa butter clogged it and chocolate was sprayed everywhere!) But this unit ran great. Has multiple heat settings, and is warm enough to actually melt the chocolate itself. The pieces are heavy enough that small bits of food don't mess it up. Note: At first, no lights came on and it sat dead. Luckily, my electrian father pulled off the base, found a lose wire and attached it. I had bought the fountain to be the centerpiece of my nephew's rehearsal dinner, so when it didn't work I was in a slight panic. but once corrected, it worked beautifully, was the hit of the night, and was easy to clean! (Well, as easy as chocolate is to clean...) It also shipped much faster than was estimated.
Disappointed March 16, 2007 0 out of 1 found this review helpful
I received this for Christmas from my mother and it worked only once. The motor burned out and the company would not honor the warranty. Both the company and the fountain were a HUGE diappointment. DO NOT WASTE YOUR MONEY!
the center of any party June 9, 2006 4 out of 4 found this review helpful
This is the home version of the fountain used by the pros - it is the center of any party, is fairly easy to use, and (except for the base) is dishwasher safe. It does take some space to store, and does need some attention during the party. It also requires 5-6lbs of chocolate to ensure an even flow.
