VIVO Pink 1030W Electric Cotton Candy Machine, Commercial Candy Floss Maker, 20 inch Stainless Steel Bowl with Sugar Scoop, Easy Home Use, CANDY-V001

This works great, easy to use and to clean. I bought this to use for our neighborhood parties and it has been a hit! Never worked one before or made cotton candy before, but I watched the video and it was easy.

This is a replacement for first one ordered. First one didn't work. Was not putting candy out correctly causing burn. When second machine was being ordered I was standing right inside my opened door. How I knew I was getting delivery was I heard the box hit the concrete hard and loud. Couldn't believe it was dropped like that. Box clearly showed what was inside. After that I worried this machine might be broken. And that also maybe that's what was wrong with the first machine. But thankfully it seems to be working well. I've only used it once so far. Everything seems to be good. It's a good machine. Makes great cotton candy. Fast and easy to use. Definitely a good purchase. And the children love it. As well as the adults.

The media could not be loaded. Absolutely love this cotton candy machine. It’s quick and easy to set up and to use. There are latches to keep the bowl in place so it doesn’t rattle and is really sturdy. Once you turn it on and let the belt warm up for a couple minutes you then turn the heat switch on and it takes 3 minutes for it to heat up. It takes 5 minutes total for the machine to be ready to create deliciousness. My son and I were able to make 20 servings of 8 different flavors in about 30 minutes. We had a lot of fun. It is quite large so I saved the box for storage in the garage when we’re not using it. I anticipate this machine lasting a very long time and using it often. I feel like I invested in our happiness :)

I love my cotton candy machine! It works wonderful! Spins up so quick and creates a nice full stick!

I love this cotton candy machine! Super easy to use and not to heavy to transport.

It does a great job of making cotton candy. If all you need is 6-10 candies made over 10-15 minutes cleaning is easy. Take it to the 30 min max and its a real chore to clean. It is just so hard to turn off when all the kids (and adults) want more.

I rate this highly because, for its size, I think it does an excellent job. Yes, if I had unlimited funds and unlimited storage space for frivolous things, I would like a full sized professional cotton candy machine. But, for its size, it makes candy fast and beautifully. Because the bowl is smaller and has lower sides, this works best if you wave your cone or stick over the center to get the most candy with the least flyaway, but it spins floss pretty fast and the children were delighted with how huge I could make the fluff in a short time. To make a huge cone, I use 3 scoops of sugar, one at a time, until the ball of floss is really big. This is how they were when I was a child in the 1950s. I would not get the hood that prevents floss from flying because, then you cannot make the impressively huge balls of fluff or bring them out through the opening. To accommodate great big balls of floss, I made my own sticks of ⅜" dowel rods, cut to 18" long. The kids were so impressed. I wash and reuse the sticks.A tip is to watch the humidity if you plan to make the floss outdoors. With high humidity (like we had when I took it to a Florida beach location, the floss compacted and became thick and chewy. Indoors it was light and fluffly. At home, in the north mideast region, I can use it outdoors if the humidity stays below 50. Above 50 humidity, it is worth cleaning up indoors. Another thing to be aware of is that you will not feel much heat above the center heating unit. The first time I used it, I kept waving my hand above the heating unit, waiting to feel heat. I overheated the unit and the result was candy fluff flying all over my kitchen and burning slightly before it spun threads. Now I only allow it to heat 2.5 to 3 minutes before adding the sugar. This works great. Also, melted sugar will collect on the edges of the bowl. After using the machine, I push these off with a wooden spoon to avoid scratching the bowl. I break the pieces into manageble sizes (about 1" or shorter). Then I can reuse them by turning off the motor while filling the center with pieces. Then turn it back on and spin more candy floss. If the unit seems to be getting too hot, just turn off the heat for a few seconds while arranging the sugar pieces...back on with the motor when it is filled.)

Best Cotton Candy Machine on Amazon!I purchased this to replace a smaller "home edition" cotton candy machine that ended up not working. This was totally worth the investment. The machine is easy to use and takes about 4 minutes to warm up. A long handle metal sugar scoop is included to maie pouring easier. After the machine is warmed up- pour the sugar in and be ready!!! This thing makes cotton candy FAST! It also works with regular granular sugar. My kids had a great time spinning their own cone. You can purchase a dome for less mess but its really not necessary if you are working outside. Inside- definitely get it! I will probably purchase it eventually but to start out with- not necessary. You will not go wrong with this machine. When finished, let the machine cool down completely. What I liked the most about this machine is the pan locks in place on the motor box. Clean up it easy! Unlock the pan and spray with warm water. The sugar melts and gently scrub. Cleanup is easy! Great investment and fun for the family!
