We love the Maui concoction maker! It is so easy to use. My family is loving making frozen drinks and kid friendly drinks too. Clean up is a breeze. I love how powerful it is and how soft and fluffy the shaved ice is. We have used several days and made several drinks on one charge. The mixer is not loud and will be great for vacations as it won't be loud in a hotel. The only tiny complaint is that it needs a spout for pouring ease. Tiny complaint and will not stop us from using. We cannot wait to try more recipes over summer break. Sobmuch fun!
