Froggy's FogPro Snow Machine, Model Snow Making Machine with Wireless Control and Completely Variable Output Flake Size, High Strength ABS Construction

This snow maker is amazing for the price. The only drawback is that the remote ON/OFF switch , is connected and there is no timer, so we were going through some snow liquid pretty fast.. BUT WAIT, THERES A FIX! So I added a repeat cycle Intermittent timer. I can set it now for 20 seconds of snow, and it turns off for 10 min., then keeps repeating. The unit is compatible with the timer and you can set it to whatever you want.. This makes the snow mix last much longer. We're using it with our Christmas decorations and after a few hours, we'll bring the machine inside. It's got a metal loop on the top that helps to mount on the hook if you decide to hang it. I haven't tried the bracket it comes with as some people mount it on a tripod. You can go with light snow or full on blizzard. The unit is abit loud, but its worth it. The kids love it and so do we. When the wind is light, the snow hangs out for awhile since we are using the extra dry snow. I give this a thumbs up and definitely recommend it.

What a fun machine! we completed a Winter Wonderland display for a commercial application. The snow machine was installed in the top part of a clubhouse near the roofline at the front entrance. The machine worked perfectly creating a light snow fall which attracted attention and offered the perfect atmosphere for the event. The machine is fairly loud, but worked great in our display as we had loud music playing. What we liked the most about this particular machine was the option to adjust the size of the snow that is produced. Most inexpensive machines do not offer this feature. We found that the smaller flakes worked better for our event and looked more realistic. The machine was installed under the roofline and held up through the December weather. It's probably not recommended to be left outside, but it worked well for us in the location we had it. If your on a tight budget and looking for a somewhat of a realistic snow fall effect, this is the perfect machine.

We used 2 of these machines for our "Chillin'" Halloween display. The neighborhood loved them. We found that both would run off the same remote, but we could not adjust the output equally. We put one on the manual control and one on the remote. Adjusting to the right output is the key - if you have too much output, the fluid consumption is high - if you adjust to a flake-like output (similar to a light snowfall) - the fluid lasts a couple of hours. Clean-up was easy, although we ran 2 cycles of warm water rather than the recommended 1. We used the recommended fluid (purchased via Amazon as well) rather than a DIY mixture. We cannot wait to use them again.

The media could not be loaded. I was so excited to order this for my kids. It was a tough holiday not getting to see family and friends, but we knew some snow in South Texas would bring some Christmas magic. We bought the newest model and paid extra for expedited shipping. We assumed this would be an investment we could use over the years, but upon opening what appeared to be a perfect snow machine. We got nothing. No sound, no snow, nada. The lights on the remote turned on, and the lights inside the machine are on, but nothing is happening. We read the short instructions and everything including the black sock is connected.We were excited to give this product a great review, but we have a faulty product. There is virtually no assembly required. Plug it in, load it with the snow and it should go. We even paid extra to expedite the Froggy's Flakes brand snow. Total fail for us. Cheers 2020.

Okay so this is my critical review of the 650w Froggy's fog snow machine upon pulling this from the box I noticed immediately that it was almost double the size of the fog machines that I have purchased in the past it is entirely made out of plastic it has a carrying handle and a mount to mount it to a pole the remote for it is okay but it really needs a wireless remote especially if you're putting it on top of a building like I did using this with the long-lasting Froggy's fluid is totally amazing . On the box it says that it streams artificial snow up to 20 feet this is false this is actually a lot farther than 20 feet if using the Froggy's flakes long lasting fluid mine travelled up to almost 40 feet which is double of what the box says it actually went into my neighbor's yard most of it stayed within a 20-foot radius from the machine but it did travel a lot farther. see my video for further details you will never get a better effect then this. now this only has one setting this is I guess considered high output from the information that I read. this is foam this is not real snow and I have noticed that many people order the long-lasting fluid and the snow fluid I'm assuming that they probably mix these together however there are recipes online that will allow you to create your own snow fluid. This does consume quite a bit of fluid in a short amount Of time. I ran the machine on one full tank and it lasted approximately 8 1/2 minutes however this is with the long lasting fluid on high output. the other fluid May last longer as far as fluid consumption. however, as far as the snow flocking the trees and staying on the ground the long-lasting Froggy's flakes fluid is the best I've seen yet , the machine has and on off switch on the back of it and a remote on off switch if you leave the remote in the on position you can use a wireless electrical outlet remote basically meaning you can use a smart outlet . It says right on the package that it works best with Froggy's fog fluids I am not going to confirm nor deny this as I purchased the Froggy's flakes long-lasting fluid and the results speak for themselves on the video this machine is rather loud. I would say almost the equivalent of a small shop vac starting up maybe a little bit less this is very lightweight and has a 1 liter tank capacity which in my opinion may be a little bit too small for the size of the unit none the less there are ways to add a larger tank to it. It does have for an optional purchase accessory the FFM - TC which is a timer and the FFM - WR wireless remote as I only have the wired remote right now I cannot speak for either of these I will be purchasing them to test out the entire functionality. Please watch the video as I cannot begin to explain the amount and quality of snow that this machine puts out. After leaving the machine off for almost an hour and the temperature outside being 64 degrees there was still a lot of snow left on the ground I am thoroughly impressed with this....... Upon further review of this product after approximately two weeks of use I have noticed that despite any snow juice used the flake size remains large this being said if you are looking for a light drizzle of snow you may wish to purchase a different product this is great for flocking as it lasts almost 15 hours on the ground and on the trees a higher powered air pump might have been a better idea to use considering the one they have cost less than $10 retail. Some of the additional precautions that I took because of using this outside was to wire a replaceable fuse in line with the fluid pump and the air pump in case of any type of failure on either part it will not burn up the entire fixture I also added a rheostat to control the flake size. And will be integrating a simple timer circuit at a later date. This is a quite loud unit that being said I would suggest doing some sound dampening activities such as creating a soundproofed box to house this unit in as it will drop the noise level approximately 3 to 5 decibels if made correctly maybe more depending on sound dampening materials used. Any type of soundproofing material and MDF would make a great housing for it however you would be faced with a challenge of sealing the MDF from the outside elements as MDF is nothing more than highly compressed fiberboard and will get completely destroyed if left open to the weather. Make 100% sure you are using a ul-listed extension cord with a ground outlet GFCI outdoor plug is highly recommended for use with this product as it will prevent electrical short and or fires.As I have been waiting for several weeks now remotes you become available they are not becoming available and have been on backorder for approximately a month and a half now with no restock date in sight as this is unacceptable for me to void the warranty and make my own remote and timer circuit for it. If you have electronic experience this is very easy to do if you don't do not attempt it you will only damage the device and or electrocute yourself. I am reducing the current rating from five stars to four stars because the remotes are unavailable have been available.
