Review on Nostalgia PCM45RR Retro Countertop Cotton Candy Maker - Red: Hard and Sugar Free, with 2 Reusable Cones & Scoop Included! by Monica Smith

First of all I would like to say that all the reviews on this product before buying it were real. - and I'm so glad I bought it anyway. That's great! One review said it was noisy - it's not noisy. My hair dryer is louder than this one. My 2 year old slept through the night making cotton candy. Another review said it moves when you turn it on, but mine didn't. I put it on my kitchen island and it stayed there the whole time. Even more reviews said it took so long to get a good candy ball. I'm not expecting industrial size candy to come out of this tiny machine. But a lot of sweets were obtained from a sugar ball, and quickly too. My 4 year old daughter giggled as she watched and waited patiently with my 3 and 2 year olds. They were interesting to watch. I made enough for my 3 kids (one was sleeping) and myself in just a few minutes. Cleaning is a breeze! Also in the house! My kids loved picking up the crunchy sugar crystals that piled up on the bowl. It was like a bonus! After we picked it, I put it in hot soapy water and just washed it. The metal heating element was simply rubbed down with a kitchen towel dipped in hot water, then I squeezed out the water and wiped clean. counter too. ONE point of criticism I would say is that the white shell is not fixed and wobbles a bit. But it's not that serious. Not enough to dissuade me from taking this kid out at every opportunity! It was worth every penny! And I'm glad I didn't listen to all the reviews and decided to form my own opinion.
