Kool-Aid 20-Count Snow Cone Cups & Spoon Straws Party Kit, Blue

It does make shaved ice, with great consistency. But you have to use the provided disc to make an ice circle. I think that's why so many reviews are opposed. Ice cubes yield more of a snow cone texture and using the disc allows the shaver to grind more effectively.

This is the second Kool aid snow cone machine I bought thru Walmart. I love it!! Kids love it!! It is do easy and simple to use. It's compact. Stores easily and is very easy to clean. Highly recommend to anyone who needs to keep cool and have fun.

Perfect little snow cone machine. For the price it's well worth it💙♥️

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This machine is so durable and quiet! I had my little cousins over and we had a ball! We even made flavors that didn't come in the package and everything turned out great and the ice texture was perfect! Super easy to clean. Can't wait til summer to make some adult snow cones!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I love this snow cone maker! It comes with a refillable tray that you fill with water and freeze so it makes shaving the ice so simple but you can also use regular ice cubes from the freezer. Easy to clean and covered lid keeps your fingers away from the blade.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This snowcone maker is really easy to use, just fill with ice and press. I found that the ice is not super smooth and you have to refill ice with every snow cone made due to the size. Overall, it's good for personal use.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This snow cone maker is so adorable. Would be great for a birthday party. I love that it has an attachment to hold the cone. It also comes with a reusable cone which is nice. The snow is ok. It isnt super fluffy and still has little chunks but maybe if i let ice met a little more first. What i dont like is that you have to hold the top down to shave the ice so you cant walk away for even a second or it stops shaving. Other than that it is a great addition. Great for making a kids summer more enjoyable. The flavors that came with it aren't overly sweet but taste just like kool aid made from the packets.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] It works as intended, and it makes snow come easily. It does get a bit messy, though. The ice comes out on one side predominantly, so you have to consistently spin the cone, or else it will pile over. It is hard to do so without help because the machine shakes without a firm hand on it. If you don't, then it'll pile on one side and spill over. It is just ice, but still. Speaking of the ice, the max like makes it so you can only put in about 6 cubes at a time (12 if they are smaller ice cubes). It makes enough for snow cones, but if you want to make a bowl of shaved ice, it'll take a while of refilling. It's as loud as a blender when on as well, to be expected. The ice shaver part comes apart from the rest of the body for easy clean. It has a safety feature built in, good for preventing accidents, but also annoying if you don't have it in a specific position. But this feature allows it to be fun and safe to use with kids with supervision. So it's become a novelty item to it brings out for our necessary and nephews. The paper cones you can get sold secret are a joke and don't last very long, so definitely just use plastic cups.
