5.0 out of 5 stars It works and cracks ice
I wanted a simple ice cracker and this works great. Our LG refrigerator makes ice cubes, not cracked ice. This cracks 1 or 2 cubes. It is easy to use and easy to clean. I have used it for a few months with no problems.
5.0 out of 5 stars A blast from the past
My husband always wanted one of these because his parents used to have one, that was about 40 years ago! When I found this one, I just had to buy it for him. I think the price was a little high for what it is, but it does work, and he's happy with it. He uses it to make martinis...he just crushes a couple of ice cubes at a time and it saves a lot of time. Easy to use once you get the two sides hinged together. It's a cool kitchen item and people always ask about it when we pull it out.
4.0 out of 5 stars Great lit'l item
Does as promised, durable, will probably outlive me, if I treat it right. If I could change anything about it, it'd probably be the handles. Maybe have some kind of rubber or rubber-like coating on them for a better grip. I also worry about losing half the thing since the upper part is removable. For now I've been using a velcro zip tie for that.
5.0 out of 5 stars A nice little gadget
I really like this. I bought to replace a similar ice crusher that I bought decades ago at TG&Y, which the handle finally broke off of after about forty years. It will be interesting to see how long this one lasts. But I really like it at this point. It is easy to use and breaks the ice cubes into just the right size. The only drawback is that it only crushes one cube at a time, so it takes a couple of minutes to fill a tall glass with ice. If you had 5 or 6 glasses to fill, that would take quite a while. But for me, who lives alone, it is fine and I like it. An electric machine that takes up counter space would be overkill.
5.0 out of 5 stars It’s fine for most cold drinks and cocktails (but of course
I’ve discovered that ice crushers vary tremendously in their output. While some produce finely shaved ice that can be used for a sno-cone, this crushes an ice cube into several pieces (the size of peanuts- walnuts). It’s fine for most cold drinks and cocktails (but of course, not for a frozen daiquiri, which must be blended). The key here is that it’s small, manual, fits in a drawer, and it easily cleaned and stored. I’m lazy, and I think twice before taking a large electric ice crusher out of my cabinet just for 1-2 drinks. But this device is so easy to use that I don’t think twice about it. And with the “leverage” principle, it’s actually easy to crush the ice cube - so grip strength is not an issue. Bottom line - this makes “crumbled” ice, but not “crushed” ice or “snow” - but it’s fine to use to prepare a few quick chilled drinks.
1.0 out of 5 stars It doesn't crush ice
So the ad said it crushed ice. It doesn't. It breaks ice in two. The ribs inside the device do not extend far enough, engaging adequate to crush the ice, it simply breaks a typical "half moon" ice cube in half, instead of crushing it into pieces, like you'd expect from a fountain drink machine. If you buy ice trays that make small ice cubes, it won't even break those, because their too small. I thought the idea of crushing an ice cube by hand was too good to be true, and this device confirms it. The device also comes apart too easy when you open it to put in an ice cube. Half of the device detaches and falls on the ground. This requires a special technique, having you support the detachable half with something else, like your leg while sitting, or the counter-top (awkward), to prevent the other half from detaching and dropping to the floor. Even if it did work, seems like too much work to get crushed ice IMO. I think a tenderizing hammer would work better, inside a cast iron skillet. Quicker too.
3.0 out of 5 stars SINGLE, SMALL ICE CUBES ONLY!
[EDIT: After a couple of weeks of use, I can't recommend this product. As I stated in the original review, it is good for "1 SMALL ICE CUBE" only -- and let me emphasize the word small. I am not weak, but even I have a lot of trouble and find it almost impossible to crush a "normal-sized" ice cube. To really work nicely, the ice cubes MUST be small, so small that is is hardly worth crushing them. SO I CAN'T REALLY RECOMMEND THIS PRODUCT AND PLAN ON DUMPING MINE (any offers) -- but am going to leave the product with my generous 3-star rating.]Three stars (it's OK) is a little generous, but two stars (I don't like it) is not fair. OK, I read a lot of the reviews and realized that I was getting a product that was only good for crushing ONE ICE CUBE. Well, guess what -- the ice cube had better not be a somewhat large/normal sized ice cube you get out of an normal ice tray -- because it will barely fit in the crusher and the handles are separated so far that it is almost impossible to get a good grip in order to squeeze and crush the ice cube (unless, of course, you are Andre the Giant, who is no longer with us).This is a single drink only ice crusher -- i.e. I got this just for me, for an occasional something-on-the-rocks drink. Forget about your wife using it (most wives) as it requires a lot of force -- but if you don't fill your ice tray to the top to get normal/somewhat large ice cubes, it will work OK. On the other hand, this is kind of defeating the whole purpose of the crusher -- I could have just filled my ice tray halfway up (or less) if I really wanted small ice for my drinks.So beware -- only use with single, rather small ice cubes -- and I think you will be OK.ron in round rock
5.0 out of 5 stars Will never break.
Slow if you have to fill a tumbler, but glad I bought it.
Stabiler und zuverlässiger kleiner Eiscrusher
Zunächst möchte ich anmerken, wir hatten bereits einen mechanischen Eiscrusher zum kurbeln, einen größeren elektrischen Eiscrusher und wir waren nie zufrieden.Die Stabilität dieser Geräte war nicht zuverlässig.Diese kleine Eiscrusher-Zange hingegen macht bisher einen wirklich sehr guten Eindruck und funktioniert perfekt.Die Eiscrusher Zange macht einen sehr massiven und stabilen Eindruck.Wir benutzen mittelgroße Eiswürfel, in dieser Größe passt nur 1 Eiswürfel in die Zange hinein.Die beiden Hälften der Zange lassen sich leicht verbinden und auch wieder trennen.Das Zusammendrücken der beiden Hälften funktioniert leicht und der Eiswürfel wird perfekt zerlegt.Auch meiner Frau fällt die Bedienung dieser Zange sehr leicht.Auch die Reinigung ist sehr einfach.Für 2 Personen ganz sicher eine gute Anschaffung.
Crushy!
Nice product. I wanted something durable instead of other noisy electric solutions.This fits the bill perfectly.One minor side effect. The coating/paint will start to crack and flake after using it a lot. Sometimes a chip of paint will end up in the crushed ice. Which is why I only give it 3 stars. Without chipping paint it would get a 5/5.
Crushes ice.
It does it's job.
La mia salvezza
Fa egregiamente il suo lavoro, entrano due cubetti per volta, ma almeno al lavoro non mi distruggo le mani rompendo il ghiaccio. Unica pecca si sgancia continuamente la parte superiore (perché è progettato così) sarebbe stato più comodo un unico blocco. Comunque lo consiglio
priceless tool for those who like crushed ice
I have a serious penchant for crushed ice. When our fridge's ice crusher function stopped working, my world went dark. I tried all kinds of ice, but nothing satisfied my crushed-ice need... until I found this little gadget. I use it several times a day... every day. I fill my glass with crushed ice and then add a little water / mio to fill. The best little tool I never knew existed! The ONLY gripe I have is that the coating is chipping off and sometimes those little paint chips end up in my drink if I'm not careful. But other than that? It's perfect. Heavy duty steel and will last forever. I'm just waiting until the coating all comes off and I don't have to worry about those chips any longer.
