 Not bad March 4, 2010
E. Klein (California)
Better than some others but the ice for the snow cone is still not nearly fine enough. I guess you have to pay a lot more to get a REAL Hawaiian shaved ice machine.
Low power February 1, 2010

If you aren't in a hurry to get crushed Ice, then this is your product. It doesn't seem to have the power needed to crush ice quickly. However, the kids like it and the price was right, so...

My kids received this for Christmas and I was a little worried after reading the reviews that it would suck. However, to my great relief, it works beautifully. We have had lots of slushies now with no major problems. My first attmept did get jammed because I tried to shave too much ice at once. Now I just do a little ice at a time until the bowl is full (this provides 2 big slushes). In this way, you do have to stand by to keep adding ice but it's a whole lot easier than my Snoopy snow cone machine! Also, it is very loud - like any blender would be that is crushing ice, I guess. Just clean and dry afterwards and you shouldn't have a problem with rust.
I love it! January 8, 2010

This makles great snow cones! Works well - better than any similar machine I have seen. If it has a drawback, it's noise (but it's noisy to chop ice). Very well designed and sturdy and makes perfectly shaved ice.
Good, not great December 19, 2009

I've always wanted a slushie machine of my own, especially since it can be hard to find good sugar-free flavors, so I was excited to get one of these. While it does work well in some ways, I was disappointed in others.
On the plus side, it's relatively easy to use. Put ice in the top, put flavoring (if you want) in the bowl, turn the bowl (which brings the mixing paddle into the right position), and you're good to go. Twist the blue plastic cover to turn on or off. It makes noise, of course, but far less than I was expecting. Comes apart easily for cleaning. Works pretty quickly, too. And it's a lot better than using a manual crank.
On the down side, the ice is a lot more coarse than I was expecting, even in slushie mode (which seems about the right texture for snow cones). And the mixing paddle doesn't seem to do very much. It spins slowly and doesn't do anything to bring the liquid from the bottom of the bowl into contact with the upper layers of ice. So as a slushie machine, it definitely leaves something to be desired.
I suspect, however, that it will work out very well for making iced coffee and other such drinks.
