Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of Sensio Bella Cucina Beverage Fountain ( Silver )Customer Review: Don't waste your money... it does not work well w/ sodas (i.e. gingerale) Summary: 2 Stars
Purchased this item for a large thanksgiving function at my home and the it barely worked. It does not work well with carbonated beverages such as gingerale. It will work after about 1 hour (after the gingerale gets FLAT). It will work fine for NON-carbonated beverages. Specifically it just stopped working after we poured the gingerale in the fountain. While we waited for the soda to get FLAT we used a punch bowl ladle to pour the soda. One other downside is that the fountain splatters/sprays a fine mist of beverage in the air, therefore at the end of the day you will need to wipe table area where it was located really well. Soda/punch (anything with sugar) gets sticky by the end of the day.
Customer Review: Looks nice, but was disappointed! I will be returning it. Summary: 2 Stars
I bought this fountain for a party and did much research comparing with other brands. I thought this would be best because of size, and liked the stainless look. Easy to put together, but if you don't have the seal in just the right spot your drink will leak out all over the table.(test first with water).Pump is VERY loud, very distracting if you want an elegant party, but would work if all your parties are of the loud dance type. Lastly it splatters, and it's alot if you run it for hours. With a sweet drink you will have a sticky residue all over the table and floor. I am ordering a Rival brand that claims it runs quieter. I hope I'll be more happy with that one. I would NOT recommend it.
Customer Review: Bella Cucina Punch Fountain Summary: 4 Stars
Have used this 6 times now. It does splash quite a bit, but I do like the fact that it holds 3 gallons-most other plastic fountains hold a maximum of 2 gallons. Have learned the hard way that care must be taken to be sure the gasket on the bottom is lined up properly or it WILL leak. Also found that the center piece where the "bubbles" come from overtime will get "gummed up" from the sugar and needs to be soaked in soapy water before it will work again. The cups do fill up rather slowly, but overall a great value for the money. Actually purchased a second one and used both at a school graduation reception-made a big hit!
Customer Review: Really nice fountain Summary: 4 Stars
My wedding was only a few days away & this product arrived just in time. It is very pretty & added an elegant touch to my reception.
