The product works well overall, but it can be prone to jamming, which can be frustrating to fix. However, I still believe it's a good value for the money.

In the summer, I make a lot of shave ice treats. I use a plastic sandwich bag in the mold, fill it with water, then freeze it and store it in the freezer. I also do the same with cocktail mix and tomato juice. I write the contents on the frozen bag with a sharpie. I rinse off juices and mixes off the machine immediately so it doesn't dry onto the blade.

We got this new ice shaver after our old one broke, and it's been great. It comes with a plastic cone and two ice molds, but we only use the molds. It's simple to use - just plug it in, push down on the top to shave the ice, then release when you're done. The shavings aren't always perfectly even, but they satisfy my kids, and that's all that matters for the price. The ice molds are surprisingly helpful, and they make the shaving quality better compared to using ice cubes. Overall, we're very satisfied with this machine.

This product is excellent and I love it. I just received it and haven't used it yet, but I thought it would be smaller. It's a bit big, but I will make a video once I use it. It's perfect for gifting and I highly recommend it as a beautiful gift. It's easy to use, so go ahead and buy it. You won't regret it. I do want to note that the delivery person should handle the product with care. The delivery person who brought my product threw it so hard that I thought someone had fallen. When I opened the door to see what had happened, I saw that the delivery person had thrown the box. I thought for sure that it would be broken. That's not the way to treat things that people buy. They need to be more careful when making deliveries and not throw the items. I know it doesn't cost them anything, but they need to be more careful. It was almost like the delivery person was angry and threw it so hard that it scared me. Thank you.

Upon comparing various models, I purchased this ice crusher in May 2017 due to its small footprint and good video reviews. It works effectively, but does not produce fluffy snow. It processes ice cubes efficiently, but cleanup can be a bit messy. It is made of mainly plastic and screws. The blade cannot be adjusted, so it cannot produce fluffy snow ice like more expensive all-metal units can. Overall, it's a good option for a small kitchen but may require some improvisation for cleanup.

This shaved ice machine has been in our family for 6 months now and it's been a great investment. It can be a bit loud and shaky, but the quality and texture of the snow it produces is worth it. We found that using ice straight from the freezer, without adding water or letting it sit, gives the best texture and flavor. We prefer not to use the cone cup because it tips over easily, so we use a tall plastic cup and transfer the shaved ice to smaller cups. This machine has been a great alternative to buying shaved ice from professionals, saving us money in the long run. We also discovered that making our own syrup with the Courant packets has saved us even more money. After 6 months of regular use, it still works perfectly and looks just like it did in the picture. It's been a hit with the whole family, and we're very happy with our purchase. We don't plan on trying another machine because this one has exceeded our expectations.

I've been searching for a Snow Cone machine for a while and after reading many reviews, I decided to try this one. I'm glad I did. This machine only produces enough ice for one snow cone at a time, so it's not suitable for a party. However, it works well for me and I have no issues with it. I used ice from my fridge and wet it as suggested by another reviewer, which worked perfectly. The machine is a good size and the suction cups on the bottom keep it in place. The only issue I had was with the snow cone cup holder, but it's not a big problem. Overall, it's a great machine for making snow cones for your family and cleanup is easy. I would recommend it.

This machine is really impressive and will be a hit with guests. It's well built and the suction cups keep it in place. The snow it creates is amazing and the process is quick. Some people may have had a different experience, but I'm very happy with it. I didn't buy any flavoring because I want to limit sugar for my son.
