VEVOR Cotton Candy Machine Commercial, 1000W Electric Floss Maker with Stainless Steel Bowl, Sugar Scoop, Storage Drawer, Perfect for Home, Carnival, Kids Birthday, Family Party, Red

UPDATED: Out of the box it seems to be well made with simple controls and quality materials. The instructions mention the machine needs 15 minutes to warm up; we observed something closer to 30. Ensure you have a sufficiently heavy gauge extension cord depending on length for this 1000w machine.This machine emits floss from the center like a tornado unlike other machines that emit on the sides. Don't overload the sugar hopper. It seems to cycle on for about 15 seconds, then off for 30 so making 1 floss stick takes several minutes. Hood recommended to prevent candy flying away when used outdoors. With the additional caution of duty cycle of 1 hour and 15 minute rest, production is limited to about 15 to 20 sticks per hour. Perfect for small birthday parties of 10 to 15 kids. The machine is low cost so buy 2 for non stop commercial operation.Cleanup was very easy - with the machine on but heater off, pour a tumbler or two of hot water into the top and will with spin out taking left over sugar with it. Still needed to unscrew the lid and scrape out some burnt sugar but it was easy.

We used this for my daughter's birthday party and it was a hit! We had a $35 dollar machine previously that didn't work very well (took 3+ minutes for a small cone). This machine needs 10+minutes on Max to preheat, but once heated, it did a large cone every 30-45 seconds.Unfortunately, the website is giving an error for photos, but they were fluffy and delicious clouds of sugar.

I bought this for my classroom and as a follow-up activity with my 8th graders after doing research on the history of cotton candy making. They absolutely loved it! It is very large, and heavy-duty, with no issues heating up or working properly for an entire day full of students making, making, and making some more. We used pieces of hard candy instead of sugars, and were able to do some pretty cool flavors (cinnamon!!). I did NOT buy the lid as it was, at the time, another $100, and that seems a bit excessive to me. A lid, however, would be very handy as bits of the candy/floss fly through the air and all over the walls--and you--not a deal breaker, and an easy clean, but definitely a mess. I recommend this product! Everybody loved it!

We love it! Takes some time to learn to work it. I got it for home use with my 3 grandchildren. Could of gone smaller, but this one is totally worth the price because it knocks the cotton candy out so fast!

My husband had a childhood cotton candy machine My in laws bought in the early 90s, we had it until about 5 years ago when we finally blew out the motor. Since then we had tried replacing it with at home cotton candy makers, but things are not made to last or be used on a regular basis anymore. A year ago I finally decided to splurge & bought this commercial grade machine & i dont know what I had thought it would be, but its twice the size I was expecting. Again, my issue since I did not pay attention the dimensions. Aside from the size, this machine is great. It's quick and easy to use. It makes cotton candy within a minute of turning on. My one downside is it makes it so quickly that the strings of cotton candy fly everywhere. If you are using indoors & not in an enclosed cabinet, your best bet is to buy the dome to help contain the candy. The first use of this machine & i had cotton candy on my light fixtures, my husband was covered into strands of sugar & the floor and surrounding table was sticky.That being said, this machine is easy to clean & easy to use. The only thing its not, is easy to store. Pay attention to dimensions, but if your family loves cotton candy or you need it for events, it will not disappoint.

Vevor is our go to, the machine looks perfect and makes great cotton candy quickly. It is quiet and appears to be very durable and taste and smells great

Absolute piece of garbage. Sad that it will rot in a landfill. Mind you, Im a cotton candy business, so I wasn’t expecting much. However , I know people who use this for their business and I have no idea how they do it. It’s not even worth my time writing all the things that are wrong with it. Just don’t buy it. Buy a toy one and you’ll have better luck.

I love it but do not make my mistake or you will have cotton candy whisp hanging from every higher thing in your home. Buy the mesh, it helps or buy the dome. I will buy the dome soon. Makes cotton candy just like the carnival kind and oh my all the different flavors you can find. Would definitely recommend.
