I am disappointed in the results, the machine doesn't freeze enough for the liquid to get slushie, it runs for maybe 15 minutes and then shuts down with an error warning.

I haven't tried it yet, as I received it as a gift. So far it has been easy to setup and clean. I cant wait to start creating some of my favorite drinks/desserts.

I really love my ICEMAN slushie maker . it's really made my daughter happy, the one thing i bring to any gathering or cookout. And easy to use and clean every single use just a button to slush then boop a button to clean

We can't really do this right now as we're setting it up for the first time. But my brother-in-law has one just like it and it worked very well. We like that we can make kids slushies in the summer too that are healthy treats. Looking forward to that.

This maching is great. i see reviews saying it wouldn't slush up liquids and it leak. you have to follow directions. theres a sticker on it that says...machine must be upright for at lease 2 hours before use. If you know anything about things with compressors is you can't have them laying on there side then stand them up and start to use them. the refregerant has to settle first or the maching wont work.

But I just tried to use it last night and it stopped working in the middle of the shake like making a milkshake and we can't get it back to work. We troubleshoot it and unplugged it for a little bit to reset it. We cleaned it and it's still not working

I brought the machine on 1/10/2026 and have used three time since the first day brought was not disappointed at all. I tried a bottle of sweet wine blueberry flavored and would not turn until slushy unless I add juice to the mix. That's is the only thing i was to happy with so far , but for most part the price was perfect for my home bar.

The Chefman Slushy Machine is honestly a vibe for at-home fun. It's super easy to use, doesn't require ice, and turns drinks into smooth slushies in about 15–20 minutes. From sodas to margaritas and even wine slushies, it handles variety really well. I love that it has preset options and a good-size capacity—perfect for small gatherings, movie nights, or summer days. The texture comes out smooth (not chunky), and once you learn which drinks work best, it's pretty consistent. That said, it works best with drinks that have sugar, and it's definitely made for home use—not heavy, everyday commercial action. Cleaning isn't hard, but you do need to follow the instructions to keep it running smoothly.

My experience using the slush machine has been great so far. It is easy to set up, simple to use, and makes frozen drinks quickly. The controls are straightforward and the machine produces smooth, consistent slush. It has been a fun and convenient appliance for making drinks at home.

I like the machine, but it doesn't get the mixture cold enough to make shakes. I have read the entire book from the beginning to the end. I have cleaned the machine, followed the instructions on the troubleshooting page and still didn't get the problem resolved.
