Good little fogger
Dan Dan the sound man 12.04.2018
I got this for a small theater production where all I needed was a small fog machine that was quick to setup and simple to use. It was great for that, very easy to setup and operate using the one button to go.
It produces and good cloud of fog considering it's size and price however when you use it, it very quickly cools down and you have to wait for it to warm up again before you can use it again.
So for a small party or for an effect this is a good little fog machine.
However it does have it's drawbacks. This isn't a fog machine you can turn on set what you want and forget about it till the end, you have to press the button every time you want fog. Also although it does produce a good amount of fog for it's size and price, it's won't fill a big room very quickly.
The lead for the button is a good length so you can position it away from where you are and still control it and the button does have a magnet on the back to hold it in place.
Overall it is a good fog machine for the money but lacking some of the features of the bigger more expensive one.

A smoke monster
Marco_erre 18.07.2017
You will not believe how much smoke this micro machine can spit out. it takes something like 4 minutes to warm up and load the first shot, but one it is going it takes a few less and this thing can get a huge amount of fog in a medium venue, if you keep pressing the button.

perks: very light, huge amount of smoke, very very small liquid usage, long distance shot

defects: a little slow to warm up, the power cord is way too short, there is no "auto shoot" on the machine, you have to actively press the button, and while you are on stage is not always comfortable, a little noisy.

anyway, for the price, it is way more than expected.
i got 2 and they can really get a medium venue totally foggy.

Awesome Machine for its size and price
TheRacingLion 15.04.2020
Great and fast output. There is a bit of waiting time between active times and it might take a bit to first heat up but when it goes, it goes.

Does not use too much fog fluid and fills a small room very fast, bought it for mobile dj and home use, and coulnd't ask for better machine.

The only con I see is I wish both the cables were removable, or at least the power one, because the power cable is a bit short for some situations, but for the price I am happy with what I got.

Great for outdoor parties
Howard 12.05.2020
I bought this for one of our annual summer parties to add a bit of drama to the lights when the sun goes down. It's not suitable for a stage show, but good fun and works well enough for a small gathering. Don't expect a huge fog bank and you won't be disappointed. The reservoir holds enough for a reasonable amount of smoke. The trick is not to hold the footswitch down, but to add smoke in short bursts with a short rest in between each burst.

Surprising Amount Of Fog!
Joe S 11.11.2019
For something so small and cheap it works surprisingly well.
I use it with a dense fluid and it's fantastic when using on stage or even on a film set!
It does take about 5 minutes to heat up, and it would be great if there was some sort of wireless controller.
But for what it is you can't go wrong!

HA
DIAMOND for this amount of money
Happy A 06.11.2018
I bought this for little parties and gigs. This machine is absolutely amazing for the price. Quite good amount of smoke in one time (20m2 room was full of smoke, even too much smoke, in one straight push). I was using more dense smoke liquid.
If you need a lot of smoke in big room right away, you should buy more powerful thing. But I use it just to make a little effect with my PAR lights and moving heads.
+ cheap and good quality
+ good amount of smoke
+ very light and compact

- (Only one minus) it takes maybe too long to heat the liquid up and start making smoke and sometimes you need a little smoke right away but you have to wait some time to heat this thing up.

For this price it is definitely brilliant.

Used once
Gramonion 01.11.2024
I bought this to use for Halloween effects last year (2023). Its been used once, and then cleaned properly as per the instruction and put away. This year I came to use it and it doesn't work. It has power but doesn't produce any fog. You get what you pay for I guess. I wouldn't recommend this unit.

Works well for the price
Mich M 04.11.2021
For the price it does its job, ising it with the recommended fluids from the same brand and had no particular issues. Takes some time to get up to temperature but that's fine. Used in a small-medium studio for photo/video effects.

When I received it the fog was going all over the place and shooting at an angle, then I noticed the small tume inside the nozzle was bent. Straightened it with a pair of pliers and had no issues since. A bit weird, could not have happened in shipping, but it's working fine now so...
