Product Description

The New Margaritaville Frozen Concoction Maker - Bahamas is your passport to transport your next party to the islands. Simply fill the top reservoir with ice, pour your favorite ingredients into the jar and at the touch of a button, the Shave-N-Blend controls automatically make a pitcher-perfect 36 ounces of frozen margarita deliciousness in one easy step. The shaved ice ensures better drink consistency - no more ice chunks or watered down drinks. The Bahamas allows you to shave only and blend only to create customized frozen concoctions by adding more shaved ice or blending a little bit longer. The ice reservoir holds enough ice to make one full pitcher of margaritas in one automatic cycle, while melting ice is channeled into a rear reservoir to avoid watered-down drinks. The tropical color, nautical design elements and chrome accents make the Bahamas the perfect party enhancer for your next spur of the moment party. The blending jar and its components are all dishwasher safe, and the rest of the unit quickly wipes clean. Accessories include a Margaritaville shot glass, a quick start guide, a frozen drink recipe guide, and an instruction manual. The Frozen Concoction Maker - Bahamas is your escape to paradise.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great Choice over the DM1000 and DM2000 July 8, 2008
I picked up the DM0500 model after some extensive shopping around for one of the Margaritaville blenders. This one doesn't hold as much ice as the others but it holds enough for one pitcher worth of drinks. It also doesn't have the fancy buttons that the others have that denote "mudslide," "daiquiri," or "Margarita"(I've heard there is little difference in these settings).

That is the main difference between this model and the others. It had the standard shave only/ blend only switch and a start button( more on that later).

The blender itself is very nice it has some great artistic accents like behind the pitcher on the machine is a metal engraving of a palm tree and a sea plane. The construction is easy and it works right out of the box. All you have to do is attach the ice hopper and you're finished.

Some of the negatives though are that the metal ice chute (that's what I call it) shifts up and down so that it fits perfectly and tightly to the pitcher which is nice except that it doesn't seem like it is extremely sturdy but it hasn't broken yet so I guess I should report that if it does.

The Start button is nice it makes a drink about the consistancy of a smoothie from smoothie king. I enjoyed it alot. The ice hopper shreds ice like a dream and the seal on the top if fantastic. I noticed some people complaining that it spilled and I have had no such problem.

I would highly recommend this model over the others for it's reasonable price and great offerings.

5.0 out of 5 stars Perfect Magarita Consistency February 5, 2008
Made the huge mistake of buying the Margarator first. What a piece of junk. We returned that to the store and we were very hesitant to sink even more money into this, but we really wanted something to make frozen drinks. I am so glad we took the plunge and bought this machine. PERFECT SHAVED ICED CONSISTENCY - JUST LIKE IN THE RESTAURANTS! Very easy to make and very fast. Make sure you follow the recipe ratio in the directions. The recipe calls for 2 to 1 ratio. I was used to following the recipe on the back of most Magarita mixes that are 3 to 1 (Mixer to Alcohol).

5.0 out of 5 stars Awesome blender! February 5, 2008
I bought this for my father for Christmas. He loves making margaritas, but could never get his blender to shave the ice well. This blender shaves ice perfectly and comes with some great drink recipes. I have the larger version that I also use for smoothies, but this size is nice for every day use if you have limited counter space, or as a gift.

4.0 out of 5 stars It's good, but I never use it!
These are good, and work well. If you really will use it, I'd recommend it. We've only busted it out a few times in 1.5 years, which is unfortunate. Read more

The only feature about this blender that works well is the ice shaver. Blend feature only works if you have liquids. If you have fruit or yogurt it doesn't work. Read more
