Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

This machine is fantastic. I like the safety features in it. The machine will not run if the lid is open or the ice tray removed. I got tired of paying overe $3 for a small snow cone at the local stand so I invested in the Crisinart. It is AWESOME! The children of all ages were happy with their 8 oz. snow balls and we could control the amount of syrup they received. We took it to the beach and to a birthday party and it was a huge hit. I love the crushed ice all day long. It's pretty addictive. I like to use True lemon and lime (crystalized citris) on the ice for the extra sour. Recommend this for great family fun! April update. This machine has been used every day since we got it. It is working as well as it did in August. I fix the ice for my daily ice tea. The Cuisinart is well worth the extra cost. This still gets a 5 star rating.
