Enjoy making fruit smoothies or sophisticated adult cocktails with this excellent blender-like device that's a bit more than a typical blender. It's geared for making ice beverages in a way that blenders can barely touch. The Margaritaville Frozen Concoction Maker is built to party! Unlike a blender, the Frozen Concoction Maker shaves ice and blends it with your favorite ingredients for restaurant-quality consistency every time. Take the guesswork out of frozen beverages with its pre-programmed automatic settings. Simply, fill the ice hopper with ice, add ingredients to the blending jar and fire it up! It does all the work... you take all the credit! 1 Year Limited Warranty

Summary: Margarita's anyone?
Comment: This makes fantastic margarita's. It is a heavy unit, so if you are moving it around to different places- do get the carrying case. Really simple to use!!

Summary: Not worth it
Comment: I bought this product for a party, and I was not impressed. I could only make 2-3 margaritas at a time, which was unfortunate since I had more guests than that. I spent most of the night at the margarita machine making drinks than entertaining guests. The machine itself was very noisy. The quality of the drinks was not any better than a blender.
Its not worth the money.

Summary: Now That's a Good Margarita!
Comment: Well - I finally broke down and purchased this frozen drink maker - and we LOVE it. Several years ago, we rented a commercial model for a party we had at our house. It was a big hit, so I thought I'd buy one. I was shocked at the price, however - about $1000 and up. I gave up.
A few months ago, however, I saw this one and we broke down and purchased it after looking it over for way too long. Well - let me tell you, it makes very good frozen drinks. I mean very good. The drinks have a great texture (I was worried about ice chunks) and once I got the recipe down - a great tase. Still at about $250, it is expensive.
Note that this unit doesnt make ice - you add ice to the top, the unit shaves the ice and adds it into the blender. Then the blender automatically runs and blends whatever ingredients you've added into a perfectly smooth and icey blend.
So - at $250 it is expensive, but I think it is well worth it.

Summary: Excellent Machine! The best I've seen!!!
Comment: This Margaritaville Frozen Concoction Maker DM1000 is the best that I've ever seen. At one point, I seriously considered buying the Island Oasis for $2500, as pricey as that is, just to have a good machine at home for entertaining...but then I found this thing, read all the reviews and figured, why not give it a shot for under $300? I'M SO GLAD I DID!
This thing has a powerful motor, and it's finished drinks are as good as you'll get out of any Island Oasis machine. It truly is dummy-proof and makes a professional bartender out of just about anyone. Follow written drink recipies or create your own. Tripping over your own great recipies is half the fun with this thing!
In the beginning, we though the drinks came out a bit watery, but due to the ice being shaven, then blended, the shaved ice would often melt down a bit, losing a bit of the "slushyness". We found that we ignored a few tips to actually freeze the blender jar (or at least refrigerate it for a while) before making drinks. This way, when the shaven ice hits the jar, it does not instantly start to melt. This is the secret to making a drink with the perfect consistency.
This machine is great at home, and we bought the carrying case for it as well so we can take it with us to our football tailgating parties and everything else. People have seen it in action and now request that we bring it with us to their events. I should start charging a rental fee and make my purchase money back on it!!!
If you don't have one of these...BUY ONE!!! It is great.
