Bottom Line

A great option if you're looking for a simple, compact machine that can produce crushed ice of all textures.

Pros

Sturdy machine made with stainless steel blades. Non-slip rubber feet keep the ice crusher in place. Holds 2 cups of crushed ice cubes. Powered by a hand crank. Crushes ice quickly.

Cons

It may be a little difficult to hold steady because it doesn't have any grips or a suction cup base.

Bottom Line

A good solution if you only need a small amount of crushed ice, but it's not ideal for producing large quantities.

Pros

5-year warranty included. Dishwasher-safe. Straightforward operation. Good value for the price. Durable cast aluminum construction. Portable and doesn't require any power or surface to sit on.

Cons

You can only crush small amounts of ice at one time, so it's not a good solution if you need a lot at once. Requires a lot of force.

This device crushes ice and mixes drink ingredients together while already in your glass.

Difficult to use if you're only working with a small amount of liquid or ice.

Bottom Line

A manual ice crusher with a large storage capacity, though you'll have to put a little muscle into turning the crank.

Pros

Easy-to-use hand crank operation. Stainless-steel blades that won't rust. Easy to clean out after use. Crushes ice finely after just a few minutes. Holds 4 cups of ice.

Cons

The hand crank requires a little bit of force, but most users should still be able to handle it.
