Nostalgia4 Tier Electric Chocolate Fondue Fountain Machine for Parties - Melts Cheese, Queso, Candy, and Liqueur - Dip Strawberries, Apple Wedges, Vegetables, and More - 32-Ounce - Stainless Steel

Worked for highschool dance for 70 students. Favorite dessert! Favorite dunking item - strawberries. Placed it on a covered box for height. Noise of fountain was NOT noticeable after festivities got started. I purchased 5 lbs of chocolate as recommended in other posts. Cleaned it up while still warm. If you are away from your kitchen, Have a small bottle of vegetable oil to thin chocolate & be ready for clean up just after you use. Clean up: Need something to put melted chocolate in (I threw it away after being used for 4 hrs.), dish soap and bowl to put fountain pieces in after most of the chocolate is rinsed off.

This product was amazing! I used high quality chocolate and did not have a single issue. It was in use for over three hours straight and worked amazingly! Clean up was not as hard as people who reviewed this said it was. Definitely worth the purchase!

I used this at a wedding on May 18th. I was so disappointed with it. I set this product up and it did not perform well at all. The chocolate made it to the top and would only flow slowly on one side. It continue to freeze up. It takes a long time for the chocolate to heat up. I bought lots of fruit nd pretzel to dip in the chocolate but was not able to let the guest enjoy chocolate. I bought a 5 pound bag of chocolate drops to use. Now I'm a day too late to return the item.

The media could not be loaded. I was excited to use this fountain for my super bowl party. I was serving TexMex food and decided to have a nacho cheese fountain. The presentation value can't be beat.The fountain stands up at least 24 ", and has a cute vintage look.However! It's not going to work very well unless the texture of your cheese or chocolate or ranch dressing, etc. isn't perfect.I did not prepare my own cheese sauce, and I don't recommend it. I bought a number 10 can of nacho cheese from the wholesale aisle as recommended in an online video. That cheese has its own fluidity, and has preservatives to keep it from drying and clumping. But it was still too thick.The instructions advise you to turn the machine on for 4 minutes before you add your ingredients. That gets the bottom plate quite hot. But the cheese or chocolate you use also has to be heated to at least 100 degrees before you pour it in. Having microwaved the cheese in a separate bowl, I brought it to a temperature that read 100 degrees on the probe thermometer. So now I think I am ready to go.So then chatted with my guests and expected to see flowing cheese shortly after. The auger in the center is supposed to bring the cheese up to the top of the fountain and then flow over. Plan on monitoring your fountain during the party.I had to add quite a bit of hot water and stir it around on the bottom level to create the right fluidity. Eventually it worked, and my guests got a kick out of it. But it was not ideal.It was not difficult to clean, if you don't mind using a little extra care. You must be careful not to immerse the base or get water into the motor cavity.It came apart relatively easily, and was easy enough to put in storage in the original box.

So far it works great! We use sit with queso. We warmed queso with heavy cream first then poured in fountain. It worked perfectly. Just make sure to follow the directions!

This was a fun centerpiece for my Halloween snack table. Sadly, the fun didn’t last for too long because the chocolate doesn’t stay heated long enough to continue flowing smoothly. It was relatively easy to set up, but the functionality isn’t too practical if you want more than just a picture/video and 5 minutes of use. Was also not fun to clean up, although leaving it to soak for a couple days definitely helped.

This fountain was a big hit for a small group. I’ve used others that didn’t keep the chocolate warm enough to promote a good flow. This one kept the flow going.

Works very well and easy to use
