This unit is a great machine. Definitely no betty Crocker unit. We've had it running off and in for hours, treating all the people in our community on Saturdays.
It's not hawaii shave ice quality but it does the job.
Spectacular I purchased this snow cone machine for my kids I'm a latino man and there's a tradition to buy snow cones from a street vendor. We use it during all family occasions Thanksgiving is a popular time. I truly love it and so do all my kids all ages
This machine definitely makes more of a snowcone consistency. If you turn it to the “fine” setting that does change the ice , but the machine is much slower. Lightweight, and can hold an entire 7lb bag of ice in the top.
THIS THING IS AWESOMEEEE!!!! Kids loved it and it's soooo easy to use! I was worried about operating it....it's a breeze!!! OHHHH and to be clear....The ice is a COMBO of shaved and pieces of little,tiny bits of ice. YOU ARE GONNA LOVE THIS THING!!!
