Toys and Games Reviews of Slushee MakerCustomer Review: Disappointed Summary: 1 Stars
My daughter received this for Christmas. We followed all of the directions..to the letter. We did this 4 different times with 4 different drinks. IT DIDN'T WORK any of the 4 times. My husband tried it the first time it didn't work. I assumed he must be doing something wrong, so I tried it next. Then we both tried it again at separate times. We used non-diet drinks(as stated), both soda and fruit juice, none of the attempts produced an icee, not even a bit of slush.
Our children only get 3 items from Santa(we want to cut down on commercialism, plus Jesus only got 3 right?...the wise men) Anyway, this was one of her 3 items. Imagine how disappointed she was when 1 of her 3 items didn't even work! This is by far the most disappointing toy we have ever purchased.
Customer Review: I'm satisfied Summary: 4 Stars
I found the instructions right inside the box on top of the toy. They were clear and easy to follow. I think you would have trouble getting it to work properly if you don't have and follow the instructions. I think it's best if an adult sets it up for kids to crank. I've used it twice and have had good results. A couple of points: You don't have to pack the ice real tight- if you do, you may have trouble; I tried using red-cherry cola, and it turned the white auger pink. The parts are not diswasher-safe. My wife and my daughter both say it makes drinks that are better than the slushees sold by a big chain of drive-ins. I wouldn't say the toy has any educational value, but it I was satisfied that it does a good job of making slushees.
Customer Review: piece of junk` Summary: 1 Stars
1. this toy was not fun because it took so freaking long to turn the handle by the time it eases up the ice has melted.
2.its not educational all you do is turn a knob thats not turnable
3. this toy is ok in durability but it has alot of lose piece when your trying to wash it. and the cups are chheap they broke by one fall to the floor.
4.this toy is freaking dumb i did not know that 2 year olds where aloud o make toys. when you make them it seemed like an alful lot of salt to be adding to that small of a sno cone it tasted like a cup of salty water.
5.it was a peice of c word it broke when we were packing it up one day i think it should be taken off the market for being a peice of c word
Customer Review: No fun for anyone! Summary: 1 Stars
My son chose this toy after returning some toys he got for his birthday that he didn't want. He couldn't wait for an icee.
What a nightmare!!!
The toy's cup holder part that attaches at the bottom of the base wouldn't stay on. When the icee maker is filled with ice &
juice, it is very top-heavy and the crank is very hard to turn.
While the juice did show signs of icing up, I used all of my force to hold the thing steady but I couldn't. It tipped over and there was juice everywhere!
Tip of the day -- I don't recall the directions saying to freeze the ice-cylander (auger) before use. It might work better if you do.
Customer Review: SAVE YOUR MONEY!! Summary: 1 Stars
My son was very excited when he opened this last Christmas. I was very disappointed when we tried to use it. First, putting it together was too complicated for my 7 year old. Once it was finally put together we added the juice and he started turning. After about 5 minutes he got tired so I started to turn the crank, and at about 10 minutes it looked something like a slushy. We tried to turn the knob to get it out, which was difficult, and we spilled half of it on the counter. We ended up with about 2 tablespoons of slushy. We tried 2 other times to use it with similar results. Now it sits on the shelf. Save your money on this - buy a blender and add frozen juice!
