  Great Choice over the DM1000 and DM2000

  I picked up the DM0500 model after some extensive shopping around for one of the Margaritaville blenders. This one doesn't hold as much ice as the others but it holds enough for one pitcher worth of drinks. It also doesn't have the fancy buttons that the others have that denote "mudslide," "daiquiri," or "Margarita"(I've heard there is little difference in these settings).That is the main difference between this model and the others. It had the standard shave only/ blend only switch and a start button( more on that later).The blender itself is very nice it has some great artistic accents like behind the pitcher on the machine is a metal engraving of a palm tree and a sea plane. The construction is easy and it works right out of the box. All you have to do is attach the ice hopper and you're finished.Some of the negatives though are that the metal ice chute (that's what I call it) shifts up and down so that it fits perfectly and tightly to the... 5/5 J.

  Awesome blender!

  I bought this for my father for Christmas. He loves making margaritas, but could never get his blender to shave the ice well. This blender shaves ice perfectly and comes with some great drink recipes. I have the larger version that I also use for smoothies, but this size is nice for every day use if you have limited counter space, or as a gift. 5/5 Patricia P.

  Perfect Magarita Consistency

  Made the huge mistake of buying the Margarator first. What a piece of junk. We returned that to the store and we were very hesitant to sink even more money into this, but we really wanted something to make frozen drinks. I am so glad we took the plunge and bought this machine. PERFECT SHAVED ICED CONSISTENCY - JUST LIKE IN THE RESTAURANTS! Very easy to make and very fast. Make sure you follow the recipe ratio in the directions. The recipe calls for 2 to 1 ratio. I was used to following the recipe on the back of most Magarita mixes that are 3 to 1 (Mixer to Alcohol). 5/5 Paxton in AZ (Surprise, AZ) - See all my reviews This review is from: Margaritaville DM0500 Bahamas 36-Ounce Frozen-Concoction Maker (Kitchen) Made the huge mistake of buying the Margarator first.

  Margaritaville DM1000 Frozen Concoction Maker

  Rating (188 reviews):

  (4.5/5)

  

  I was skeptical...

  I distinctly remember making fun of the Margaritaville Frozen Concoction Maker when I first saw it advertised in the Front Gate catalog. ("Who's going to buy a three hundred dollar blender on steroids?!? Hah-hah-hah...") Imagine my horror when my wife announced that she wanted one for her birthday. Looks like that "who" was going to be "me".The vast majority of positive reviews on Amazon calmed my fears a bit and I ordered one up. As usual, Amazon delivered quickly and it was unpacked and setup in a couple minutes.Exactly true to its claims, the thing actually makes perfect consistency margaritas and any other frozen drinks you can think of. I think I like it more than my wife. It has a "power tool" vibe to it that guys appreciate. Spinning blades and high speed motors. What could possibly go wrong?There's a few things/tips to be aware of:1) It's BIG. It just barely clears the front of our kitchen cabinets and is too tall to go... 5/5 Clay N.

  Awesome

  When I saw this item for sale I just had to buy one for my husband as a college graduation gift. Margaritas are his favorite drink and he just couldn't duplicate that restaurant quality consistancy with a blender. This Margaritaville machine actually shaves the ice instead of chopping it like a blender would do. This creates that nice smooth consistancy of the drink instead of a lumpy texture.It's very easy to operate. All you do is fill the ice chamber with ice, pour the correct amout of your drink mixture into the pitcher (it will make 1-3 servings at a time), set the machine to how many servings you would like, then turn it on. The machine automatically measure,shaves and blend the perfect amount of ice according to the amount of servings. No more watery drinks.When my kids have friends over for pool parties they love me to make them alcohol free strawberry daiquiris or pina coladas or fruit smoothies.One nice feature about this machine is that... 5/5 westielove (PA , United States) - See all my reviews This review is from: Margaritaville DM1000 Frozen Concoction Maker (Kitchen) When I saw this item for sale I just had to buy one for my husband as a college graduation gift.

  This blender works GREAT

  I have been looking for a blender that would make perfect margaritas or daiquiris and this is the one. It makes 1, 2 or 3 drinks at a time, and perfect everytime, as long as you read and follow the directions and put in the right amount of mix. Easy to use and clean. I had been looking for an Island Oasis Blender on Ebay, but the Margaritaville Frozen Conconction Maker is so much smaller and priced well below what a used Island Oasis was going for. This is perfect for travel and I plan on taking it to many Jimmy Buffett concerts. The only downside is the ice storage on top, they need to have an attachment that will hold a bag of ice so you don't have to refill as often. 5/5 Bradley M.

  Great Accessory

  I don't know how I missed the fact that this travel bag was available. It is padded and holds the Key West concoction maker safely. It has a pocket for the shot glass and salt rimmer as well. I took my concoction maker on a 1400 mile road trip to where else, Key West recently. I highly recommend this accessory for your party blender. 5/5 Deldan - See all my reviews Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)

  Great bag at reasonable price

  I was very hesitant about spending this much money on an accessory. After receiving it, I know now why they charge what they do. The bag is made similarly to a quality backpack, with the same types/quantity of material and zippers. Now I can take the machine off the counter and store it somewhere during the winter months when it doesn't get used as much. We used it with the Figi machine, and it works great. 5/5 Jason L.

  A must have if you own a Margaritaville Frozen Concoction Maker

  The bag is exactly as described. Definitely worth the 30 or so dollars. It's very sturdy and perfect for the storage of my Bahamas Frozen Concoction maker. I needed this because I have very little counter space and needed to store my machine when not in use; and trying to put it back in the box was a pain. The only reason I didn't give 5 stars is because I kind of wish it was more of a case with hard sides instead of just a heavily padded bag, so that it would protect from moderate impact and not just scratches and dust. Nevertheless, I recommend this if you own any of the Margaritaville models that will fit inside. 4/5 Kysten "Kysten" (Atlanta, GA) - See all my reviews Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)

  Have margarita maker, will travel

  We've had our Margaritaville margarita maker for several months and have been hauling it around to friend's and family's homes for get togethers. I was always afraid that the pitcher would drop and break. So, when I saw this handy carrying case, I thought I had to get one. The case is very nicely made. I'm very impressed! The whole case is padded and there is a thick foam pad at the bottom of the case, that the machine fits snuggly into, then there are velcro straps that wrap around the machine to keep it securely in place. The sides of the case zippers to open and close the case. There are 2 heavey nylon handles for easy carrying. There is also a outside large pocket the velcros closed, perfect for carrying a salt tray. If you want to protect your $300 investment, I recommend having this 1 accessory. 5/5 westielove (PA , United States) - See all my reviews Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
