I have the original Ninja slushi and I just received the new one. I used them both at same time with exact same ingredients. I will say that the new Binja Nax performed much better when slushing alcohol and was much faster. I did not have to dilute the alcohol and was able to get a sorbet type consistency

I love this, i skipped every small version because for the same price, bigger and assist why not? I've yet to make alcoholic beverages but i did make cherry pepsi slushie and it was great. I have no complaints and glad i waited for it to go on sale. I eyed the smalls every since release and since i couldn't figure which version had the lip defect i never purchased. The fact that i slush up to 20% abv vs 16% makes me happy.

First off, major upgrade from the original version! The first ninja slushi walked, so this max could run! Definitely 2x faster, better consistent as far as like freezing! Like when you take an almost frozen water bottle out the freezer, open it and It freezes instantly. That consistency! It’s a little louder, but idc lol. Only used the slush assist and spiked slushi, so far so good! Easier to clean cause there’s no crevices or hidden spots like pulp can squeeze into! Party friendly, little heavier than the original but that’s expected! The higher percent to freeze alcohol is a game changer. I poured lots of tequila and xxl wine and it still froze! Very satisfied with the purchase. Kind of scared to see what’s next! Ninja slushi pro max plus? lol

I took advantage of the Halloween sale, and I'm glad I did, the Ninja Slushie Max is a must have for people who like myself loves slushies. The ability to make any flavor you want instead of going to a store and getting what they have available. The slushie max is bigger, faster, and colder than the Ninja Slushie Professional. What are you waiting for go order it.

Bought this because our two young boys love slushi treats from local gas station when they have been really good as a reward but the machine was broken more than not so I did the math and ordered this one and so far just in what we have saved in not going to buy slushi I have half way paid for this one. Really looking forward to trying out adult beverages and other options with this machine as well. I cleans up really quick and easy compared to the reviews on the smaller older models. Absolutely love this machine.

I have two of the smaller Drink Makers and this one totally out performs them by a long shot. I did a quick run with 24 oz of chilled, ready made Margarita out of the fridge and it was ready within about 12 minutes. Love this slushy Makers it's alot faster.

I got this as a Christmas gift for my daughter and boy am I glad I did. No more slushie runs necessary as they are all in house. We have used kool aid , juices and sodas and they turn out perfectly. My SIL is the slushie master so he usually makes every night. He hasn’t been feeling well so we have had none for the past 2 nights and we are all going through withdrawal. It’s quite costly but I got it at a fabulous sale price before Black Friday and let me tell you it’s worth every penny and makes more than adequate amounts for a family of six. My daughter says it’s the best gift ever!

I am a professional caterer and purchased this machine to make mini brandy freezes for clients' holiday parties. Tried it out the other day for a gift exchange party for a group of 25. Brandy Freeze Recipe (makes about 25 minis) 1 qt very soft/melted vanilla ice cream 1 c brandy 1 c creme de cacao 1 c ice cubes IMPORTANT: PRE-BLEND ALL INGREDIENTS IN A REGULAR BLENDER UNTIL SMOOTH. (The Slushi will not crush ice.) Store the mix on ice or refrigerate until ready to use. Set up machine as instructed, pour mix into Slushi, turn power on and hit "slush assist". after 1/2 hr, mixture will be frozen and ready to drink. With machine running, dispense into shot glasses or small wine glasses. Garnish with optional festive paper straws (cut to size) and a mandatory grating of fresh nutmeg.

I purchased the Ninja SLUSHI Max December 1st and I'm getting my monies worth. From the first use, it's been a total hit - fast, easy and consistently delivers smooth, icy slushies every time.The clean up is way easier than I expected, which honestly makes us use it more. If you're on the fence, don't be. This thing delivers, and then some. Fun reliable, and totally worth it!!!

I've had the Ninja Slushi Max for a few weeks now. I love it! It's so much faster than the original Ninja Slushi. I also like that it holds more liquid. The slushie assist makes the perfect slushie without the unit stopping. The original Ninja Slushi was good, but the Ninja Slushi Max is great!
