Pros & Cons
Pros
It's a well built machine, very sturdy and it's fast. It is not overly huge and will definitely fit on the countertop. The ease to operate, heavy duty, great crushed ice.
It shaves the ice perfectly as you would get at a local fair or festival. This makes the best * ice. The only maybe downside is it can be as loud as a blender.
The tray is removable which makes it nice to gather the ice from the tray. I like to cram it full of ice and push the metal lever to make it think that the handle is low enough to start it. Just put the ice in the hopper, close the hoppers and in seco... Read More
Served snow cones for the kids and spiked slushy for adults.
It gives a snowy consistency vs the snowcone ice. Very close to the texture of real snow.
Cons
The pusher * is too small to inspect and clean. Metal flecks are left in the ice until it melts.
I worry about the harm the metal bits may cause when ingested. I could not simply return the item without posting a warning and notifying the appropriate parties.
Highlights
Quality
Easy to use , works great and the stainless steel material makes easy to clean and feels like professional kind
Very easy to use and safe, amazing!
In about 4 months i broke a blender and two snow cone makers with my constant use and i was fed up.
We have had plastic ice shaver and they would brake within a few times of using.

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... Read More
This four blade model is 100% worth the extra money.
00 each, they would cost $6-$10 to buy elsewhere.
This thing has paid for itself many times over.
Packaging/appearance
Ordered this machine and opened the box and plugged it in so easy!
At first no one even know what it was as it is an odd looking contraption but once i loaded it up with ice and turned on the ma... Read More
Competitiveness
Also real hawaiian shaved ice syrups are better than the others including the icee syrup.
I bought this item because the price to rent it from a local part supply house was a few dollars more than the cost of this bra... Read More

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

There are some cons but shaved ice is not a tidy snack to make so you have to expect some mess
Posted by a reviewer on Amazon
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

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

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
Posted by a reviewer on Amazon
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
