Margaritaville Key West Frozen Concoction Maker with Easy Pour Jar and XL Ice Reservoir, 4 Programmed Drink Settings, Great for Entertaining and Parties

I got this for my mom and grandparents for Christmas, we have used it at least 3 times since buying it and it has not given up any issues. It's very easy to use and literally has like 3 steps for putting it together. We have only had an issue with how much ice it takes up but that's just because we have a very small ice machine so we can't fill it up to make the "up to 3 drinks" amount but it holds a lot of ice! It doesn't seem to leak as much which is a good thing and it's easy to take on the go if you have a party and wanna bring it to make drinks with. There's multiple different blender options so the taste depends on what you make and the thickness of the ice you use.

The best gift for my husband. He loves a margarita and this maker is easy to use, clean, and easy to move. It is on the larger size, so make sure you have cabinet space if you do t want it sitting on your counter. The quality is great. The price was a little high for a drink machine but being the Margaritaville brand, that’s understandable. It has also held up so I can justify spending that much. My daughter also like to use it to make slushies.

• The shaved‑ice method creates a super smooth, slushy drink with minimal ice chunks—perfect for sipping through a straw without clogging    . • Compared with Vitamix-style blending, the shaved ice melts more slowly—maintaining flavor and consistency longer . ✅ Easy Controls & Consistency • Select 1, 2 or 3 drinks and the machine automatically dispenses just the right amount of ice and blends to ideal consistency. No guesswork required

I recently used the Margaritaville Key West Frozen Concoction Maker with its Easy Pour glass jar, XL ice reservoir, and four pre-programmed settings—and while it only misses out on 5 stars due to minor quirks, it’s a standout for at-home entertaining: Pros: • Delivers smooth, consistent frozen drinks quickly—takes around 20 seconds for a batch of three margaritas, thanks to its shaving-and-blending mechanism  • Large-capacity 90 oz ice hopper can make up to 2.5 pitchers (roughly three drinks) before needing refill  • Four pre-programmed settings let you choose 1–3 servings with minimal effort; perfectly portioned cycles do the rest  • Dishwasher-safe removable parts simplify cleanup—though you do need to disassemble multiple components   • Stylish design with a 36‑oz glass pitcher and easy‑pour spout enhances serving experience  Cons: • The unit is large and heavy (around 14–20 lbs), making it challenging to move or store in smaller kitchens   • Cleaning involves disassembling multiple parts—though dishwasher-safe, it’s a bit time-consuming  • A few reviewers mentioned durability concerns like cracking collars or blade collar issues—though performance is solid for many users, quality control might vary  Summary: If you’re hosting parties or love frozen cocktails (or mocktails), this is a superb machine. It’s fast, user-friendly, and delivers excellent slushy texture that really stands out. If you’re short on counter or storage space, or prefer a simpler blender, it might feel bulky—but for dedicated frozen drink duty, this is a top contender. Ready to pour and party—just be prepared for a bit of setup and cleanup.

The Margaritaville Key West Frozen Concoction Maker is not a "blender." It is an awesome party-drink expert! I purchased to frozen drink maker for a party and it was a huge hit. We were able to make margaritas, frozen sangrias, C'Old Fashions, and anything we could imagine.. It was fun, easy, and fast. Pro: Perfectly blended --no large chunks of ice Pro: Easy to Use -- our guests were able to make their own concoctions without us having to explain or manage Pro: Easy to clean! There is potential to cut yourself on the blade...but if you read the directions on cleaning, you will know what to avoid or where to pay close attention. Con: Very large unit (however...it is large to accommodate many people wanting delicious beverages).

This thing makes superb frozen cocktails...too bad some are the parts are poorly designed or just too flimsy. I broke the collar on the blender jar...now it cannot be tightened and leaks fluid out of the bottom. UPDATE: Not long after posting a disappointing review, I finally got in touch with customer service and they sent me a brand new unit....have used it a lot...and I love it....makes absolutely excellent frozen cocktails....makes frappuccinos as good as Starbucks and my kids love Hawaiian Shave Ice....which are also pretty good with a shot of rum down the middle...I have had no more trouble with this machine....it's easy to use and easy to clean....Love it.....just be careful with the ring on the bottom of the pitcher.... Would be a simple fix, if Margaritaville provided any customer service at all. But they don't. It is shameful for an item expensive as this to be intended to be disposable because of lack of customer support. It seems impossible that these can be so highly rated given the complete absence of customer service.

Works very well, shaves ice very efficiently. I use ice cubes from my freezer, they are perfect for this Machine. Fun to use.There is a separate resovoir to store the water from the melting ice. There is an automatic feature, or you can shave more ice manually.

Fits perfectly. Definitely will provide more protection from dust, sweat and other moisture.

Shaves ice quickly and professionally! The shaved ice is smooth, not crunchy and rocky. There is a margarita drink recipe in the directions and of course you can make anything you want - daiquiris, different flavoured drinks, pubs coladas etc. the machine shaves the appropriate amount for the recipe and then automatically blends for the appropriate time and then stops when finished. Very good quality

I generally do not write product reviews. The product needs to be really horrible or really amazing in order for me to be moved to write a review. The Margaritaville drink mixer falls in the latter of the two categories. This little “frozen heaven delivery system” is way beyond my expectations. Extremely well made and of really good quality. It cranks out frozen drinks at high speed and is only limited by your imagination. Our Margaritaville arrived on a Thursday and we used it through the weekend mixing up our first batch of rum and golden pear creamsicles at 11:00 am Sunday morning…. As someone very famous recently said “Isn’t Happy Hour Anytime?” Do not hesitate to spend the money on this amazing machine.

I bought this for a gift for my daughter in law. they used it three times and there is a plastic part on the bottom that has cracked and now they cannot use it. when she uses it it leaks all over. What is she to do now with the machine?

It works great but giving it 4 stars just because it didn’t come with a lid for the jug, and instead of sending me the lid I would have to return the entire box. Also wish it came with a travel bag
