Hawaiian Shaved IceKid-Friendly S700 Classic Snow Cone and Shaved Ice Machine with Instruction Manual, Tip Card, and 1-year Manufacturer’s Warranty, 120V, White

This works great! Shaved ice fast. Durable well made and good size not to big or small. Good price and value two summers and counting still works great. Attractive device no noticeable leaking.

We purchased our first one when the kids were young as a way to make snow cones and bring back memories our youth. It has served us well over the years and now that the kids are off in college, we bought them each one to take with them. Not only do they enjoy them as a treat, they love these when they are a bit under the weather. They will take the ice shavings and cover them with a bit of ginger ale. It really soothes a sore throat.As for the machine itself, yes, it is a bit noisy, but only while you are shaving the ice and that only lasts a minute or so. We useregular cubes from the automatic icemaker and they work fine. It is very easy to use, the kids did it all themselves.One word of advice, remember to put a little bowl under the slot after you are done shaving ice, because the unshaven ice left in the machine will melt and drip out.All in all, it is a great product that works well, is easy to use and is built to last. I hope it brings you as many great memories as it brought us.

My 6-year-olds can use this with minimal supervision. It can get things a little wet, so we put a towel under it, but it works great.

I bought this to make Filipino halo-halo desserts. When I was a kid, my parents had a manual ice shaver. This is so much easier! We were able to use it straight out of the box with simple assembly. We used ice cubes from our freezer’s ice maker. I like that it won’t turn on unless the lid is secure and that my kids can operate it without me worrying that they’ll spray ice shavings everywhere. The only thing I don’t like is that it really loud! However for the price point and safety features, it’s a good value. I knocked it down a star for durability because it’s plastic and if you’re too ambitious with turning the lid, it can break. I wouldn’t put anything other than water ice cubes in this too, because it looks like it would be difficult to clean otherwise. TIP: when I see that the snow isn’t coming out, I turn it off and loosen the ice cubes a bit. Sometimes the ice cubes get too close together and they can’t move towards the blade.

I read all of the reviews on other products before choosing this produect.LOVE IT !!!! Hope it lasts forever but I would buy another one if it every breaks.I wanted to make smoothies and didn't want chunks of ice.... This is perfect.fyi: I watched the little video made by one reviewer (the only negative review because he said it was loud... good demo video... and he actually likes it better than his other ice breaker.)In my opinion, not louder than any other product.Makes a nice little bowl of snowflake type shaved ice - perfect for smoothies, snow cones, etc.5 icecubes make enough for one. (Room for more if you want)I spoon the shave ice into my smoothies and blend. (Note: I tried putting the shaved ice into the cup and then pouring the smoothie over - but noticed that it iced up and became a little harder.... so best to blend all together.)NOTICE: Instructions say to not run it more than 2 minutes or it could overheat. So just follow the instructions.Very easy set-up... and I just leave it out as I use it all the time. Doesn't need cleaning. - Just put an empty bowl under the spout when you're done to temporarily catch any left over drips from unused ice. (I am technically challenged :) so I couldn't figure out the simple instruction for turning the lid to make it work...but my friend was here and she did understand easily.)

I am thoroughly impressed by how well this can handle making a delicious icy treat. I eat a TON of ice and love snow cones, I was spending probably 35$ a week during the summer on snow cones at a local shop. I picked this up and this version is well worth the price. I'm only 1 person, but I use my new machine at least twice a day. The ice is a bit crunchy, and I do use bagged ice, but I don't mind the crunchy. It is quite loud, but paying more for a quieter version isn't really worth it to me. On a side note, the Hawaiian ice syrups have great flavor-- I bought Banana 12oz in particular. I've also learned to make my own, and tried another brand I'm not happy with, but will probably keep buying pre-made Hawaiian Ice Flavors because I love some flavors in particular that aren't easy to make at home.

I had my doubts when buying this little guy, I though for sure it would break after a small number of uses. I serve Hawaiian Ice to all of my guests, so it gets a lot of use. I was going to buy a commercial machine until I saw how much they want for one of them. So when my last one died after 2 months, I bought this one and have been very happy with it. I can say that after 6 months of almost daily use, it is still up and running and not having any issues...Just works every time I use it. One thing you have to remember is to check the machine to make sure you shaved all of the ice or remove any remaining ice or else it will melt, and the water will drip down onto the overflow area at the base of the machine and will overflow onto the counter if a large amount of ice is left to melt in the top of the machine -->This is solely a user issue and not the products fault at all.

Ice grinding is so large that it is not suitable to eat 🍨 Bing- su, but it has the advantage of being too easy to use. If the particles were fine, I think it would have been the best item.
