Mine isn't the Wilton one but it isn't a fancy expensive one either. I pre-melt my chocolate in the microwave and put it into the fountain after the fountain has been warming up for a few minutes. I've let it run for around four hours and it's been fine for that long. I haven't needed to run it any longer than that but I think it could run a long time as long as I keep refilling it with melted chocolate as needed.

I own 5 fountains and use them at weddings all the time. I turn them on, then go into the kitchen to melt the chocolate. You want to be sure the fountain is very very warm to touch. You shouldn't be able to lay your fingers on the metal for more than a second or two.
You can run them for quite a while. I rarely need to run them more than 2-4 hours at weddings, but Deanna is right ... as long as you keep filling it, it will run fine.
For a good flow, be sure the fountains are very level.

Do your fountains have plastic towers? Some body told me she saw the plastic tower melt, and I was wondering. Have you had any problems?
