This aqua-blue retro shaver provides a mid-century aesthetic for home kitchens while processing standard ice cubes for frozen treats. The housing is made of high-gloss ABS plastic, and the ice-contact chamber uses BPA-free polypropylene. It is designed to prepare approximately 20 treats per session, making it a practical choice for birthday parties or summer afternoons.
The unit features 304 stainless steel blades that are corrosion-resistant. To maintain the motor's performance and ensure the best texture, specifications suggest using "tempered" ice that has sat at room temperature for a few minutes. This prevents the motor from stalling on very hard, sub-zero ice blocks. A mechanical lid-shut safety requirement is built-in to prevent contact with the blades during operation.
The compact design is ideal for standard countertop display and storage. Because the unit is focused on ease of use for the family, it uses a standard 30W to 50W motor that is best suited for intermittent operation. To keep the machine in good working order, it is helpful to clear any ice melt from the base promptly after use.
If you prefer a model that creates a more traditional, powdery Hawaiian-style shave, the Hawaiian Shaved Ice S900A is specifically designed for that texture.
