5.0 out of 5 stars Shaved ice eaters, look no further
I’m someone who eats a lot of shaved ice: I’m not sure exactly how it started but one day I started and haven’t gone a day without at least 3 massive cups of it. In about 4 months I broke a blender and two snow cone makers with my constant use and I was fed up. I’m so glad I decided to spend a little extra money on this, especially knowing I would’ve saved a lot more had I went straight for this guy. There are some cons, but shaved ice is not a tidy snack to make, so you have to expect some mess. I would have liked to be able to put a cup beneath the ice chute, as the shallow metal bowl it comes with is fine but not really the most functional when it comes to catching stray ice powder that flies everywhere, and there is meltwater that accumulates in the bowl and on the surface it’s sitting on as a result. Again, true shaved ice eaters will already know but in case you didn’t there you go. Anyway, pros! First of all, it came with replacement blades and a nifty tool to use to replace the blades or adjust them to make finer or chunkier Ice. I’ve had this for months though, and haven’t needed to change the blades and leaving them at the default setting makes the ice perfectly for me, not too powdery but not chippy either. It is loud, but the noise is far from the terrible sounds that happen when using a cheap snowcone maker or a blender (which is a terrible noise, trust me.) it instead kinda sounds like a saw or something, but it’s so powerful that it takes no time at all and you are done with the loud noise and can either enjoy your shaved ice or move on to your next batch. Using ice cubes, it makes about a cereal bowl amount of ice so it’s reasonable to expect that you can get all the ice you want in one go, however I did mention above that I use giant cups, which I fill (past the brim) using two rounds. It takes less than a minute from start to finish: getting the ice cubes (i have ‘soft ice’ bc i have a countertop ice maker that sits directly next to this shaver for this purpose. Using ice from the freezer might make the process take longer, or allowing the ice to soften would of course take a bit of time), tossing them into the thingie, hitting the power button and pressing down on the lever before hitting the power button again, so ice doesn’t fly everywhere. Then snow cone do it again and I have ice enough to last me a good hour or so, with some meltage that I drink or just pour back into my ice maker once I’m ready for a refill. I’m nearing the time to change the blades or maybe adjust them, not sure yet, I’ll update on if it’s tricky or easy peasy.
5.0 out of 5 stars High quality
I bought this to replace the Hawaiian ice shaver I had that stopped working. It is impressively powerful and fast for the price. Larger than I expected but looks nice. I like that you can use ice in any form to fill it, but a tip from another review of freezing the ice in discs definitely produces fluffier "snow" like product.
4.0 out of 5 stars Works great!
This machine absolutely beats the manual ice shaver I used to use. It does work great for shaving ice, it is very fast and does a very good job doing so. I tried making a solid block of ice using a solo cup and confirmed that this procedure will yield you a very smooth and snow like ice shaving.Just a couple of comments. 1: I had to ask for a replacement unit after receiving my order as the first one I received had a crack in the plastic body. Great that I bought it from AMZ so getting a replacement was no problem. 2: The machine is quite tricky to control. Turning it on is no problem, turn on the red button and move the lever to push the ice against the shaver. To turn it off, backing off the lever will not stop the machine until the ice is exposed which makes a mess. I've learned to turn off the red switch while slightly backing off on the the lever (keeping the ice covered). 3: The quality of workmanship is a bit rough. This is obviously a cheap Chinese knock-off with the corresponding low price. There are sharp corners on the aluminum casting, etc. On my second unit received there was something loose inside which apparently was an electrical component (a capacitor I think) that was just stuffed inside the housing and was not restrained. Ended up fixing it so it doesn't make noise and doesn't get disconnected.
5.0 out of 5 stars Durable and Hard Working
I LOVE this ice shaver machine! It’s easy to use and turns large cubes of ice literally into snow. The machine is heavy and very durable. I bought the model that has 2 blades. I bought a bag of ice at the local convenience store and those two blades shave those huge cubes into snow in no time.Caution: the motor turns on automatically when you put the lid down, so make sure the lid is open (up) when you plug it in and turn on the power. Also, dry the machine with a paper towel or dish cloth when you finish using it to prevent rust and prevent potential bacteria from growing inside.I don’t use the circular metal bowl that came with the machine. It seemed like it took too many steps to fill up the circular bowl with snow and then have to scoop the snow out into a cup, which is a challenge without some kind of special scoop. Instead, I put a 16 oz plastic Solo cup against the opening where the snow comes out and it fills the cup with snow in one step.Also, the place where you load the ice cubes is large enough to hold a full Solo cup of ice, and that amount fills the cup to the top with snow. So, one 16 oz cup of ice equals 16 oz of snow.With summer in full force now, I use this machine every day. I look forward to coming home from work and making my favorite blue raspberry snow cone.Update: February 12, 2022 This ice crusher is still working like the day I bought it. The blade appears to still be sharp and everything works perfectly! Great investment!
Fast and easy.
Makes shaved ice as fast as you can load it.Been using it for a few weeks already and its been a great experience. The build of the shaver is pretty hefty, you won't have to worry about it sliding around. It will firmly stay in place on a solid flat surface. It will take in almost any ice shape bearing that it fits. At most times, you can just rearrange the ice in order that it accepts it better. Note that it drips a lot of water and usually creates a pool of it around the ice shaver so be sure to have a towel at hand. It's also a bit of a hassle to make a lot of shaved ice in a bulk, the shaving ice plate is pretty small and fills up quickly.Overall I greatly recommend it especially for summers
Perfecto para mi uso
Cumple con las especificaciones, no soy experto en raspados o equipo de este tipo, pero a mi me funciona a la perfección
Sturdy and lightning quick!
My first purchase was for a different model and it didn't work at all and is being returned. This model had good reviews and I decided to take a chance on it. So glad I did! This works exactly as described. It is sturdy and efficient - making short work of ice cubes. Note- it shaves the ice, it doesn't crush. It's perfect for snow cones but still useable for drinks! Well worth the cost because this sturdy unit feels like it will last for years!
Great Item
I liked it a lot and it works like stated. The only concern i have is with the cleaning but I suspect that ice is water. water is easily wiped clean. I was also concerned that there is no metal shavings entering into the ice. I don't think there would be. Other than that it is a great product and would order it again and would recommend it to others. Works great and does what it is suppose to do. Shipping was fast too. Not a cheap unit by no means. Maybe there could be more information added to the product so one wouldn't have these thoughts. GW
super heavy duty
I wanted that product to make drinks for the summer. I was skeptical at first, but when I received it I was really happily surprised. It looks very heavy duty. It works really well and make snow, it's perfect for drink of snow cone. That machine is all made in metal and VERY simple to use. Looks like something you can have in your kitchen for a lifetime.
