I can honestly say that you should run out and get this attachment for your mixer before summer gets here! This is delicious ice and is so fun to make and eat! KitchenAid brand attachments are a must for your mixer don’t settle for off brand or just go find a shaved ice truck. I’ve had a grinder that wasn’t KitchenAid brand and it didn’t last. This shaver will be well worth the money since my kids and I love icees! I can’t wait for summer!
