Nostalgia 4 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

Bien apprécié, prend une bonne quantité de chocolat mais fonctionne super bien

Fonctionne très bien, le chocolat n’est pas très très chaud mais ça fait la job. C’est beau de voir couler les chocolats, les enfants et adultes étaient impressionnés

We were excited to get this product . But it didn’t work properly chocolate was not flowing smooth even we followed instructions .Not recommended.

When I first unboxed this item I was a little apprehensive. There was no instruction documentation included. After playing around with it, I figured out the correct configuration for assembly. It wasn't difficult, but would have saved some time if I had at least a picture of assembly sequence. The box says it holds 32 oz, (2 lbs), of chocolate. It does hold this amount, but if you want the flow you see in my video, you will need about 4 lbs. Assembly1. Insert the round bottom brace into the bowl. It will have stanchions that will insert over the standoffs in the bowl. Then insert the largest plastic bowl onto the bottom brace. Insert the auger inside, then attach the top round brace, followed by the second largest plastic bowl, then the third. The last attachment is inserted at the top and keeps the auger straight.2. Once assembled, turn on the heat to the metal bowl. Do not turn on the auger except if you want to test your assembly, but be sure it is turned off before adding chocolate. The unit should be level so the chocolate is dispersed evenly in the bowl. The 2 front legs are adjustable so leveling is pretty easy.The key to getting the flow seen in my video:3. Melt your chocolate,(I started with 2 lbs for first batch). Microwave your chips for 2 minutes. If using stove top.. watch closely so it doesn't burn. {Even though most chocolate I have bought says you do not need to add oil to make it flow.. I had to add a little bit of oil to get it to flow nicely.)4. Add your chocolate to the fountain bowl. Let it set for 10 - 15 minutes. Meanwhile, melt more chocolate.5. Once you have you second batch of chocolate ready, turn on the auger. It will siphon the chocolate to the top of the fountain. You will notice that the bowl will start to empty of chocolate, that is when the second batch is introduced to the fountain. I have found that it is easier to add the second batch to the TOP of the fountain, a little at a time to incorporate it into the mixture. Let the fountain run. It will eventually obtain the affect you want in a fountain. It may take several minutes to do so. If your chocolate still seems too thick to make a good curtain, you can add a little bit of oil into the chocolate at the base bowl. Let it run several minutes to incorporate before using. This is not an easy clean-up as melted chocolate is just, well, messy. It is easier to dis-assemble while the chocolate is melted. The parts are NOT dishwasher safe, so only wash by hand. There is a small plastic washer that sets around the shaft the auger is attached to. It is easy to lose, so be careful when dumping left over chocolate as it is just sitting around the shaft. I assume it is to keep the chocolate from going down into the unit, (there again, no instructions, so only guessing). While this takes a little more work, both to set up and to clean, I would still recommend this unit. The joy that guests got from using it was well worth the effort. The only CON I can really state is the lack of assembly instructions and perhaps operational use. Otherwise, this was a big hit at 2 Christmas parties in 2023.

La fondu au chocolat a réellement conquis tout le monde! La grandeur est parfaite pour tremper ses fruits et autres ingrédients. Elle était facile à installer et démonter! On l'adore.
