Toys and Games Reviews of Slushee Maker

Customer Review: The most frustrating toy ever
Summary: 1 Stars

My kids kept asking for this slushee maker - it was top on their Christmas wishlist, so I finally bought it. What a waste of money! The thing simply doesn't work!! We've tried it twice and both times we've been cranking the handle for 45 minutes but didn't get anywhere. The juice stayed as liquid as it was when we first put it in!!! DO NOT BUY THIS TOY - it is a waste of money and time! My kids were so looking forward to their first homemade slushee and it turned into an incredibly frustrating activity! The only thing you will get out of this is a workout for your arm from turning the handle...

Customer Review: Worst Experience I've had on Christmas Day
Summary: 1 Stars

My 5 year old son, like many others, was begging for this slushee maker. A relative bought it for him for Christmas and of course my son wants to make some right away. I was almost in tears, I got so frustrated trying to put it together and get it to work right. Then my son gets upset because he's been waiting for this day for months. I ended up putting it all back in the box and returning it for a refund. There are too many fun things out there to get your kids. Please don't waste your money on this one.......nothing but heartaches!!! In my opinion ONE STAR was too high for this thing!

Customer Review: I would rather use a nail file to make an Icee!
Summary: 1 Stars

This thing is worthless! I tried it the first time, following the directions exactly...and after 20 minutes of cranking away while trying to keep the cheap plastic pieces together, what I got was iced juice. It was nothing like what one can buy at Target. I vowed never to touch the beast again. Because our daughter pleaded, my husband then tried, again following the directions, and (much to my mixed emotions) the same amount of stupendous effort led to two thimble-fuls of murky juice. We're off to Target on Monday to get some REAL Icees, after a visit to the dump to get rid of this beast!

Customer Review: good slushees and easy to clean
Summary: 4 Stars

My daughter received this as a Christmas gift. She is a little young for it but still likes it. Parents will end up doing all of the cranking on it anyway. We used an orange soda and it discolored the auger a little which isn't really a big deal. I would recommend using a pre-chilled beverage because it takes a little longer for it to freeze if it is not already cold. The thing I really like about it is that it is really easy to disassemble and clean and doesn't take a rocket scientist to put it back together. Not an educational toy but a fun thing to do together with friends or family.

Customer Review: Don't waste your money!
Summary: 1 Stars

The best thing my daughter got from her purchase of the Slushee maker was an education on how easy it is to kiss 20 bucks goodbye! It might work if you crank it for about 30 minutes but we gave up after 15 and she drank a runny, goopy, sugary drink. We experimented with different drinks, more and less salt, and everything else we could think of. Still does not work. I'd rather pay the buck at Kmart's little cafeteria. If you want to make cold treats at home, I'd recommend the Mr. Snowman. It's not the same - more of a snow cone, but it's easier, MUCH faster and cheaper(around $8).
