Cuisinart Snow Cone Machine, Home Shaved Ice Maker for Snow Cones, Snow Cone Maker with Reuseable Paper Cups, Makes 5 ICY Cones for Slushies, Frozen Drinks, Red, SCM-10P1

After purchasing another similar machine which did not work, was cheaply made and was a major disappointment for my 6 yr old grandson on his birthday. I ordered this this one after returning the original machineMy g-son was sooooo happy and my daughter said it worked like a charm. I liked the design because of the ice depositing until an enclosed container there wasn’t a big mess to clean up due to the melted ice or just in general missing the container.The best part is this machine is the lever you apply for pressure On the ice to shaves it appropriately and efficiently, Which is very important to make the ice otherwise it just hangs in the chute and won’t grind. Makes great fluffy ice. Love it and it’s easiy to clean and the kids can safely use it. Thanks cuisines for making an affordable machine that works .

This ice shaver looks pretty in red. Brings out the "happy" in any celebration or get together. The machine is easy to operate. When you feed the ice, a gentle push will activate the machine. It has a safety feature that when you open the ice feeder, machine automatically stops even when switch is turned on. It has a big shaved ice reservoir so you don't have to frequently open and empty it. It's a time saver. There are also 4 cone cup holders on both sides. Pretty handy. Ice scoop is round shaped to give the treat top a nice dome shape. It produces a nice, fine shaved ice, perfect for snow cone or Halo-halo snack! Noise can get as loud as you would expect solid ice to bang against plastic container. Price is affordable and reasonable. Hope this machine lasts.

It has been a hot summer where I live and a cool snow cone is refreshing. This machine is so easy to set up and use and found that two large ice cubes will make enough shaved ice for one cone. The plastic cups that come with this can be used alone or I put paper cones inside as those always tend to either leak or get soggy before finishing cone. But inside plastic one works great. The scoup works well especially to put a rounded top though it is good to do that over sink. And enough left for my dog to enjoy the shaved ice too! Syrup from Amazon very good but anyone who has to watch sugar should note most of these are 20% of daily sugar so prediabetic and diabetic may want to find syrup with less sugar. All told I am very happy with this purchase. I am enjoying it and now my children and grandchildren will enjoy when come to visit.Ok now I feel bit stupid but perhaps others may run into same problem. Found that after use best to leave the ice tray out to dry. I did that and then when making another found machine would not turn on. Thought maybe circuit breaker but then realized I had not put the tray back in. A safety feature obviously. Just in case you run into this good to know.

I bought this Cuisinart SCM-10 red snow cone machine to have when grandkids come to grammys & papaw house. It is a nice snow cone maker shave ice pretty fine just like snow cones from the fair. I let my ice cube sit for a bit to melt so that when I use the snow cone scoop and make the around top it will stay a formed cone like the pics. My grandkids like it. It is easy to use about 15 to 20 cubs at a time you put to many in and it wont start shaving.The crush ice holding bin hold enough for 6 to 8 cones.It is hard plastice machine should ware good. The bin comes out to wash it. I bought snow cone syrup at Big R store and it taste great.I also order some from amazon snowie shaved ice syrup said it was sugar free but got it and it has stevia in it which I don't like at all. I take care of all my small appliances so it should last along time. May 2018 Indiana

I bought this as a replacement for nugget ice. Due to the quarantine with COVID-19 I was dent home to work. Within one week I realized I was snacking too much and missed snacking on the good nugget ice at work. I bought this machine as a replacement and LOVE it. It helped to stop my snacking and helps me consume more water throughout the day.The design is quite nice for pool parties. Has a place to hold the snow cones and the drawer removes easily. The pusher mechanism is plastic but seems to be sturdy and I haven't experienced any problems. I'm probably going to be hesitant to let others (especially kids) use it since I feel like they will try to force it down instead of gently applying pressure. I'll know more soon enough how well it lasts when others use it this summer.The ice is finely shaved and tastes and feels great. Just like a professional snow cone. It comes with reusable snow cone cups (which are nicely made) and some disposable ones. The scoop is great and we last forever. It is also just the right size for a typical glass, which is great since I'm using for crushed ice instead of snow cones.For clean up I just remove the bin and set it aside. I open the chute and then put a dish towel underneath where the water will drip as the left over ice melts. Then I just let it air out. Easy peasy!Oh yeah, it has great safety mechanisms. Have to have the arm down in order for it to turn on, also have to have bin in place. So no accidental or experimental dangers can happen. Also has a safety for over filling the chut.Great purchase for making several snow cones or just one.

This snow cone machine works great. Shaves the ice down easily and quickly. For those that say there are chunks of ice instead of more of a snow consistency, if you push the ice down into the shaver slower it’ll actually shave it vs chop it.

My daughter has been hinting that she has wanted a snow-cone machine for a while, but I didn't consider it very practical since we have a blender. I saw this one from Cuisinart and decided to take a chance. Well...I regret...not getting this sooner. She uses it several times a week and it makes perfect snow cones. It's easy enough to use and easy to clean, so it is certainly more practical than using a blender for making shredded ice. It seems to be built with quality, which is why I purchased Cuisinart in the first place. The holding tray holds PLENTY of ice to make like 6 cones at a time. If you are on the fence, get it.

This little machine is awesome!! We bought it for my son's birthday, which happened to be the first day of our extended family's summer vacation. It was such a hit with everyone! (The ice is coarse, unlike shave ice, but no one minds a bit.)Best features:*Super simple to use*Great safety feature so kids can use it themselves: it won't work if the "snow" collection drawer isn't in place*Not too loud, especially considering it's grinding ice*Easy to clean*It came with some disposable and some reusable snow cone cups, which I hadn't realized ahead of timePro tip: the Monin syrups pictured use cane sugar and no artificial colors and are very tasty!

It should tell you it’s Wired for a USA plug my daughter was very upset Christmas morning

I was unsure of whether this would be a waste of money , the last sno cone machine I had was the Snoopy Sno Cone Machine. This ended up exceeeding my expectations . Kids and adults love it ! Makes great cones and very little cleanup !
