 Inexpensive but not an ice shaver July 30, 2010

I was looking for something that shaved ice for slushies. This chips ice into tiny crunchy pieces, not the fluffy slices that you want for a slushie.

This unit did not crush ice very well for me. It was quite a task. Usually the ice had to get softer for it to work. I have only used the half moon shaped cubes. After they softened a while it seemed to work OK, but I have dreaded getting this thing out and wrestling with it every time my little ones want some shaved ice. I have used other models that worked much better and have not ditched this unit in favor of a better performer. I think there are much better designs that this one that work much better.

HOMEMADE SLUSHIES - ANYTIME in just MINUTES!
Forget about having to drive up to 7-11 or the local ice cream place. This little machine makes quick and easy slurpies in minutes. The whole family loves it. We do prefer to use crushed ice so the slurpies come out even faster!
 nice job July 26, 2010

Not exactly what I was looking for. I wouldn't describe the ice as "shaved" - well crushed but not shaved. I didn't have any problem with jams as others have reported.
Does not stand up to heavy usage. July 26, 2010

Worked well for a few days, though it was slow and loud and and the ice dispenser didn't have any sort of a spout. Then it started shaving less and allowing bigger chunks of ice through.
Problem is, it does not stand up to heavy usage. I gave it 3 stars because it isn't expensive and for occasional usage it would be OK. Anything more I would suggest spend more and get a better item.
A tip: use this machine to create the ice and a smoothie blender to mix everything together. This way you get nice smoothies free of big ice chunks!
