Broken Rifle (Illinois, USA)
We had an old ice crusher but it failed. Got this and it works great. Just pour in the cubes through the funnel that come with it and out comes the crushed ice. Easy and fast.

I have never managed to get this crusher to go through more than a gallon or so of ice without it jamming, at which point I have to wait for the ice to melt before I can use it again. What a waste of money.

It's about time I found an ice crusher that really works. I have 4 other brands of small electric ice crushers. And all they do is spit/kick back, cubes all over my kitchen. And blenders, are blenders. Not ice crushers.

This machine does an exceptional job. The crushed ice, is just the right size for a perfect bed of ice, for shrimp/oyster platters & cocktails. Not to mention, the occasional ziplock bag ice pack.

For the size of the machine, I find it rather quiet. So far, no jambs. I am very pleased with this machine. And you can't beat the price.

Mine arrived in 3 days. Looks brand new, and works GREAT.

Nice, solid, quality machine. Does a pretty good job of crushing ice cubes into smaller ice pieces. My only wish about this device is that I would have liked the ice pieces to be a little smaller. The pieces that come out are not the same uniform size that you get from a drive in or such. I've run the output through twice and that helps. But, overall it does what it advertises.

This is an excellent product. I have been using it at least every other day for at least six weeks and I'm thrilled with it's performance. I waited until I had used it enough to give an authoritative review, because, like you, reading this right now, I read every review I could from this site (and others) before purchasing it. I needed an ice crusher and this one had, comparatively, the fewest negative reviews, and probably, the strongest reviews.

Ultimately, there is no product out there that will satisfy everyone's needs, and clearly, there are a few out there who have different expectations than me from an ice crusher. I needed something to crush ice for bar and summer drinks, and in sufficient quantities for home entertainment. If you need a snow cone ice shaver, this is not the machine for you. If you like mint juleps, it is.

I have used the refigerator ice that is produced in the half moon shapes, and commercial ice from the grocery store. As long as the pieces are not frozen together in widths larger than approximately one inch they feed fine. There have been a couple of occasions when the cubes froze together after I put them in the hopper, and it required a light tap with a spoon to free them. Personally, I think it would be unreasonable to expect a machine for home use to do more than that.

The machine produces a courseness that varies from powder to small marble sized pieces. I believe it feeds well, and it crushes ice faster than you can make drinks to use it. It appears to be solidly built, but only time will test its durability. At the rate than I use it, I would expect that if there is a defect, it will show up before the end of the warranty.

In the meantime, I think that the majority of people who want an ice crusher for the same reasons that I do will be ecstatic with this product.
