The Reemix shaved ice machine is built with a high-impact ABS polymer housing, providing a durable and easy-to-clean exterior that is resistant to sugary syrups. Inside, it features a 420J2 stainless steel blade, a material frequently used in precision cutting tools for its hardness and resistance to rust. A notable feature of this model is the integrated storage bin, which helps contain the ice and reduces the mess often associated with direct-to-bowl shavers.
Specifications show that the machine includes an adjustable blade height, allowing users to choose between a crunchier or fluffier ice texture. A safety micro-switch is integrated into the lid, ensuring the motor only engages when the unit is properly closed. For optimal performance and to reduce stress on the internal gears, it is helpful to let ice cubes sit out for a couple of minutes before shaving, which results in a softer "snow" consistency.
While the motor is robust for household use, it operates best with intermittent breaks during large batches to manage heat. The noise level is measured between 55 and 60 decibels, which is relatively quiet for a high-torque electric shaver. Users should note that the storage bin is designed for immediate use rather than long-term cold storage, as it is not vacuum-insulated.
For a different style of machine that uses a horizontal shaving path and specialized cups, the Cuisinart Snow Cone Machine is a popular choice for families.
