 Rival CFF5 Chocolate Fondue Fountain May 9, 2007
1 out of 1 found this review helpful
The fountain worked fairly well, but the chocolate only really poured out on one side. It definitely didn't look like the pictures, where the chocolate poured out smoothly and evenly on all sides. But otherwise, it did work well enough for dipping and the chocolate itself stayed melted throughout the night. It didn't get lumpy or anything. All in all, you get what you pay for. If you're using it for a party, it's fine; if you want it for a formal event like a wedding, it's probably better to rent a professional one.
Worth The Price!! April 22, 2007

This is the coolest thing I've ever bought for under $20. You have to be sure it's sitting on a flat surface or the chocolate won't flow evenly. The motor made a sad little sound when we first started it up so, I can't give it 5 stars but, I know I read in other reviews somewhere that you have to run a bit of vegetable oil in it first before you pour the chocolate in. Regardless, the sound goes away after the chocolate's been flowing for awhile.
The clean up was extra sweet and messy...I didn't mind it. Also, I did have to get back online and read some other reviews to find out how other people remedied the oil in the chocolate. Another reason why it didn't get 5 stars. The recipe in the manual made our chocolate too smooth. When you dipped a strawberry in it, it didn't harden fast enough. Thank goodness they sent a 10% off coupon on quality chocolate. The other remedy may be less oil in the chocolate.
Other reviewers said it was gross but, it tasted just fine to us. Come on, it's chocolate!! It's already bad for you!
Still, this is a big hit and totally worth the money. I will be looking into better chocolate NOT a better fountain. This one is GREAT!

We bought this fountain with the intention of using at our wedding later this year. We've already tried it out with chocolate, and it was wonderful! So much fun just to look at, let alone dip into, and there are so many possibilities for types of dipping items. Plus, although there were a lot of pieces to clean, everything breaks down easily and cleans quite simply. We're looking forward to trying it with cheese, too. Just make sure to read the directions and maintenance warnings before using it, to be sure it works properly, and lasts a long time. This is definitely a fantastic item to own, and entertain with!

2 things I don't like about this product: The amount of oil you have to put in it and the mess it creates! Everyone loves it but the person who has to clean up the mess. It's a really nice idea but I personally don't like to use it because it's also hard to clean unless you stick it in the dishwasher right away because the chocolate gets hard when it's cooled.
