re: Margaritaville margarita machine? Thoughts?

We have one and use it a good bit. I don't see why people are saying it sucks, unless I have an exception to the rule. I have made every kind of daiquiri and margarita you can name in ours and the ice is always smooth. I also used it to make protein/fruit smoothies a bunch. It shaves the ice and then blends it instead of just blending, which makes the ice smooth.
