Customers say
Customers like the ease of use, versatility, and ice texture of the food blender. For example, they mention it’s great for parties or individual use, makes the ice the consistency of slush, and cleans well. That said, they say it’ll make a great investment for entertaining and is well worth the money.
Slushy Goodness
When this first came out a few years ago, I had a part-time job in the Housewares department of a large retail store. And I thought it was kind of ridiculous, to be honest! But once I started looking into them and saw how much people seem to like them, I decided I needed to buy one, and I have changed my mind! I’ve only had it a few weeks and so far I have made frozen Margaritas, frozen Blue Hawaiians, and a Frozen Woo Woo in this thing. Next I’m trying a frozen Citronella Cooler, and I want to try frozen smoothies in it, also. What can I say, I’m sick of winter, and I’m practicing for a summer cocktail party! LOL!I love the way it makes the ice the consistency of slush instead of tiny pieces of ice chunks like it did when I tried to make frozen drinks in a blender. I have not bothered using the No Brainer Mixing jar – I just measure out the ingredients and put them directly in the pitcher but I might try that out when I have more people to serve and want to make larger quantities. I purchased the cover as well because I don’t have a big kitchen and will need to store it somewhere between uses. All in all, the product seems sturdy and works great, though I have to agree with what others have said about it making 3 drinks a little more reliably than it makes 1 drink. The ice seems like it doesn’t quite get shaved as well, but maybe I just need more practice. ;-)Aesthetically, I would have preferred for the pitcher lid to be the same color as the base. It’s more of a greenish chartreuse color (it’s got too much yellow in it) than it is a shade of lime green. That’s a pretty minor point, but it’s really the only criticism I can come up with. Love it so far, and recommend it to anyone who entertains or just enjoys frozen drinks.

Instant party
I was hesitant to order this machine because many times the “brand” name is all hype but I believed the high reviews. This machine is very easy to use, the first batch was perfect, and variations were easy to make (watermelon, strawberry, mango margaritas). You can make a lot of drinks in a short time too, and it’s a blast to watch it “automatically” turn the ice shaver and blender on and off. When I wanted to clean, dry and put it away, I read the directions to disassemble it completely and found all of the parts to be very well designed and built. A real quality machine, wish everything was this well thought out. Some negatives, not that it affects my rating – it’s big, I wouldn’t leave it on the counter between uses but we have room to store it away. Also the “no brainer mixer” is very smart but one of the ingredients calls for “margaritaville mix”. I just use half lemon juice and half simple syrup or you can adjust here if you like it sweeter or not.

We love it!
I love this thing! Simple design, easy to use, makes a great margarita in a minute or so. Just put your mix in the pitcher, fill the ice reservoir with ice, turn it on and push the big button (probably big intentionally for the second or third batch, haha). If you want more ice, just flip a switch. If you want to blend it longer there’s a switch for that too. But we normally just push the big idiot proof button. This will make a batch that fills 3 margarita glasses. Clean up is easy.I used the measuring device once, but then abandoned it favor of our tried and true margarita mix. 1 cup frozen Lime Aid, 1 1/4 cups tequila, and 1/4 cup of triple sec (or orange flavored brandy), adjusting all of these slightly to your own personal taste.We drink more margaritas than we used to….maybe we should try blending some other concoction……not

I expected the chrome sections to be metal but they are in fact plastic – which I suspect is better in the long run
We were directed to this product by some friends we met on holiday. It is exactly what we were looking for and looks the business.I expected the chrome sections to be metal but they are in fact plastic – which I suspect is better in the long run, just surprised me.There are criticisms that:- doesn’t adjust for different drink sizes – True if you want to use the automatic mix button, but you can manually use the toggle switch to create any size you want. The automatic setting is perfect for 2/3 servings.- thickness of the mix – this has not been a problem for us, but it is easy to thicken or thin the mix with the toggle switch. Yes, an adjustment for this would be great but hardly an issue.-it’s heavy – yes but it is a well made piece of equipment and feels right to me-plastic gearing – this is more sturdy than any of the bad reviews had led me to suspect. Also, I can only see this being a problem in the event that the jar is not firmly seated before you start the machine. I haven’t noticed any problems.We are very happy that we purchased this product and look forward to using it going forward.

Needs a little more shaved ice
Let me start off by saying that I bought this for my wife as an anniversary present. We love doing happy hour at the house and this really does the trick. She loves it! The only down side is when you use the preset mix button on the machine it doesn’t quite make the frozen margaritas as icy as we like them. No problem though! Just use the shave function and put as much ice in there as you want.Its really a perfect machine. Its super easy to use and clean up is a cinch. We are looking forward to making all kinds of frozen drinks in this baby. It beats any blender out there for making slush still drinks!

Well worth the money, easy to use and clean
It couldn’t be easier to use. Put ice on top and your flavoring on the bottom. Press the button and the ice is shaved and drops into your flavoring then the blender comes on automatically and mixes and further pulverizes the ice. Total time about 2 minutes. Want yours less watery or thicker press shave button and it makes it thicker. Want the ice extra fluffy press the blender button and its done. If there is any ice left over its drips into a removable compartment in the back and will not drip into your mix. It works great and is sturdily built
