2 Sets Cotton Candy Mesh and Clip Stabilizer Kit 7.1 X 63 Inches | White Reusable Cotton Candy Machine Supplies Compatible with Floss Maker for Kitchen, Party, Shops

The mesh really helped to keep the cotton candy under control. It was alot easier to make it on the stick. The clips seem a bit difficult to figure out, but we bent them to get through the day! Tried them again yesterday and just wasn't able to figure it out very well.

great for parties. only problem is that the cotton flies up. will require a net on the sides to catch the escaping cotton.

I have used a cotton candy machine for years and always used the dome. I did not get the dome back from my brother when he borrowed my machine though, and did not want to spend $100 on a new one. I got this one for ~$17 thinking it may be worth a try. To my surprise it does a better job keeping strands of candy from flying away than the dome does (not tried in windy weather yet). Couple of tips -Reshape the clips to fit snugly around the lip of the bowl. (mine has a curled over lip with is about 1/4" wide. I bent the clips straighter, then used a fat screwdriver as an anvil to bend the clip around with some pliers.) -When you put the netting on the bowl do it backwards. So where the netting curls in turn it outward so it pushes against the bowl. If you do that you will only have to clip the netting at where the ends meet (I use 3 there). -Trim this to the height of the bowl. Trimming it to height will make it easier to put on, but also if you trim away all the parts of the net that stick out (to be rounded with the holes) it will make grabbing the stands easier with the candy ball when making. -When done, roll the net up and stick it in a ziplock bag. When you get back to a sink, run the rolled net under hot water and all the candy will melt away.

Work great at catching floss. I have run them though the dishwasher.

Did not fit my cotton candy machine and was extremely confusing to set up didnt even catch the sugar crystals

I really am happy that I made this purchase. I wanted the dome ans read another review about this that said this was better. Obvpislt rhe price cut made sense for me to at least try and this did not disappoint. 1. Very little mess with flying sugar 2. Very easy to set up 3. Very little stuck cotton candy to the machine (I hear it's normal) 4. Makes it easy to spin and reach in and grab all the cotton 5. The kids loved being able to see the cotton. Candy being made To take ir off clean and put away it was a piece of cake.. warm water sugar and the passing of a rag lightly to was and dry. Put it away easily. I would recommend having the clips ready and for you to put ir opposite of how rhey had ir store so it goes toward the machine and not against it.

I didn't want to buy the plastic bubble top, because of the price and this was supposed to do a "similar" thing. If you buy this, you do not need the plastic bubble. The mesh keeps the cotton candy from escaping out of the tub and going all over. We had set it up in our yard, because I didn't want my kitchen to be a sticky nightmare, but I would not hesitate to bring it inside next time. Clean up is rolling it up, putting it into a bowl of warm soapy water, throwing the clips in, while you clean the machine, then you run it under hot water and use a sponge or a brush if needed and let it dry.

I am giving it 3 stars, because there is no explanation and a learning curve. After watching MANY videos I found this is more for people who do not use a dome and just want to take out a bunch once it builds up. I use my machine in the house so a lid is a must and I don't find it necessary to use this item. the clips are not really meant for this application, but you can bend them to fit better. I did not have any of the issues from others reviews. It came in a roll that rolled out easy. I was easily able to cut it to fit to height and length like the listing says to do.

Where do I begin? The mesh is a good 2 inches taller than the bowl and is extremely sharp on the top edge. The clips are a joke and would be better used as a nose plug when swimming. Do not buy this.
