 Instant babysitter... just add chocolate! March 27, 2007
3 out of 3 found this review helpful
My husband LOVES chocolate, so I got this as a surprise for our wedding reception, which was held at my parents' place in the mountains... not that you needed to know that, but there it is. :)
We used the SF dark chocolate (which I purchased on Amazon) and it was fabulous! No oil, no fuss. You just melt it in the bag in the nuker and your good to go!
The husband loved the surprise and the kids who attended our wedding were easy to find at any given time... "If you're missing a kid, check the chocolate fountain."
The hit of the party!!!! March 10, 2007

I had nothing but rave reviews for this chocolate fountain! I found it easy to put together and take apart. I used chocolate made for candy making, it already has oil in it. I also added paramount crystals available at candy making web sites to thin the chocolate out. I can see where people had problems using regular chocolate and having to add huge amounts of oil. I think that if you use the candy making chocolate (ghiradelli candy making and dipping bar available at Sam's club during the christmas holidays or even wilton candy melts) it really simplifies the process. I hope this review helps, I certainly had excellent results with this chocolate fountain.
Fabulous Flowing Chocolate February 22, 2007
2 out of 2 found this review helpful
I recently purchased this item and used it for a party of about 40 people. I had read the reviews on-line and decided on this one for the price that I wanted to spend. We had to add a little extra oil at first to be sure that there were no clumps in it when we started the fountain up. I had read some reviews where some people said the units that they bought were noisy and were only good for about an hour before the chocolate started to clump up. This model works GREAT! It was relatively quiet also. The chocolate was still flowing after everyone had left that evening. We ran it for a good 5 hours and it worked super! I purchased Nestle Chocolate Chips at the grocery store and followed the guidlines in the book that comes with it. We melted the chocolate with the added Canola Oil in the microwave before adding it to the fountain. Clean up was very easy! I can't wait to use it again for our up-coming daughter's college graduation party in May and our wedding in July. Amazon services are also great!
Great Product - But Need The RIGHT Chocolate!!! February 16, 2007

I used this product twice, and can tell you that it DOES work as it is supposed to BUT you need to use the right chocolate. The first time I used it was a disaster! After melting the regular store bought chocolate with oil per the instruction, we were expecting it to run like the picture. Much to my daughter's disappointment, it didn't run at all (it was noisy and the chocolate didn't flow). I was ready to toss it into the garbage, until my daughter wanted to have a chocolate fountain for her 16th birthday party. Rather than spending $500 to rent one, I thought I would give it a try one last time. After much research, I bought 7.5 pounds of the chocolate from a company called Chocoley. It worked like MAGIC. You don't need to add oil or anything as the Chocoley chocolate is formulated to work in chocolate fountain. It was VERY easy to use. I just melted the chocolate in microwave, poured into the fountain, turned it on (you need to turn it on for ~15 mins ahead of time to warm it up first), and everything just worked GREAT. We had about 70 people at the party and it was the center of attention. The fountain ran for 5 hours with no problem at all. We ended up having 2.5 pounds of chocolate left which we will save for another party in Oct.

Met all expectations. We bought two. Taller that I thought and worked well as long as you kept the chocolate thinned out a bit.
Big hit with the crowd, clean-up messy, but not difficult.
