The DM1000 Margaritaville Machine
The Key West Frozen Concoction Maker
The DM1000 Margaritaville Machine, the Key West™ Frozen Concoction® Maker, makes frozen margaritas for you — or other frozen drinks. It has settings for one, two, or three 12-oz drinks at a time, and it automatically mixes in the right amount of ice. It shaves the ice for uniform drink quality, unlike blenders that so easily give you chunky or watery drinks.
This Margaritaville machine is wildly popular and gets a rating of 4.5 out of five stars at Amazon.
The consensus is that it works great. The automatic settings work perfectly for most people, but if you like a different consistency, a touch of the manual controls will give it to you. It’s easy to use and easy to clean. The quality of drinks it produces is vastly higher than that you get with a blender.
The negatives include it’s size and weight. It may not stash beneath cabinets and it’s hard to lift to store away. Also, the glass mixing jar should probably be cooled before making drinks, especially fewer than a full pitcher’s worth; it can heat up and melt the ice shavings. Also, it is a bit pricey for some people.
As for the other Margaritaville makers, the DM0500 Margaritaville margarita machine is the best Margaritaville makes for simply giving you a pitcher of margaritas. It’s simple and cheap. Of course, for anything other than that, you need to use the manual controls. The Margaritaville frozen concoction maker DM2000 has automatic settings to blend four kinds of frozen drinks, those involving only fluid ingredients, and those involving fluids plus frozen fruit (daiquiris), ice cream (mud slides), or fresh fruit and ice cream (smoothies). The DM2000 also can make one or two 12-ounce glasses as well as a full pitcher. The Margaritaville DM3000 is for much heavier entertaining. It can fill up to three different 2-drink pitchers with different concoctions at the same time.
