Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of Nostalgia Electrics CFF-965 Mini Chocolate Fondue Fountain
Customer Review: Great product
Summary: 4 Stars
Got this for a friends birthday to class it up a bit. It was a huge hit and everyone was asking to borrow it for future parties. Hold PLENTY of chocolate too! The motor on it was a little loud but when you have a room full of people you can barely notice, I just kept getting scared the thing would brake. But it didn't and I'm glad I got it. Will be using this a whole lot more!Customer Review: Junk

We received The Helman Group Chocolate Fondue Fountain as a 2007 Christmas present. First tried to use it July 26, 2008. Motor turned too slowly to adequately lift the liquid, then quit entirely.
Called the Helman Group July 29, 2008. Customer no-service rep admitted motor and/or gears were defective. He informed me the model was no longer made. Also informed me the warranty was 90 days from date of purchase, which although bogus, we understand.
I suggested we would pay the difference for the newer, upgraded unit. In all fairness, he did try to resolve the situation with his superior(s), but no go. Therefore we have a brand new unit that is going in the trash.
Do not purchase anything from the Helman Group, www.helmangroup.com; they do not stand behind their product!
Customer Review: The Nostalgia Mini Choco Foundue Was a Hit!
Summary: 5 Stars
I used this fountain at a book club party and it was a hit! I had it running continuously for about 4 hours and it ran great. When I first unpackaged it I thought it would be too small but it held quite a bit more chocolate than I expected.Customer Review: We had fun!
Summary: 4 Stars
I purchased this item to use in 2 different claassrooms (1st and 4th) for Valentine's Day. If you follow the directions exactly, everything was good. The kids loved it and it was easy to use for all ages.
Cleanup was not my favorite part (is it ever), but with warm water and bubbles, we got the fountain clean.
After I used it once, I realized that it has screw legs to adjust if the table is't level. This was a great addition to make it work properly.
I guess for a WHOLE classroom size, I would have preferred a bigger fountain, but for the cost it was very well worth it. Can't wait to use it again!
Customer Review: What a disappointment
Summary: 1 Stars
I purchased this item from Bed, Bath and Beyond. It worked for 5 minutes and then quit on me. I used expensive chocolate as recommended which cost me another $30 so the whole experience cost over $50(not including the fresh fruit )and I threw the whole mess away. It is impossible to clean and if it worked it would be worth it, but the motor isn't big enough to keep the chocolate warm and moving. What a disappointment.
