Does this muddler work for crushing ice cubes?

You could if you use the metal end on a hard surface . Make sure to place the ice in a waterproof nylon bag 3-5 min after taking them out of the freezer. Cheers!

The one I tried did not shave or chop the ice. It was very loud. I would not recommend it for slushies.

Yes, but it only makes a very small amount of slushy, and the cubes can leak easily. I would invest in a Slush Mug instead. I have this and the slush Mug and I like the slush mug better. :)

The machine I have only makes snow ice that is very fine. It doesn't make chunky crushed ice. If it does do it I don't know how to make it do it.

It is designed for digging holes or as a lever. It is long and heavy, and has narrow heads, I do not think it is a good tool for breaking sheet of ice on a sidewalk or driveway. It would crack your asphalt or concrete. This is just my thought.

This machine has a fixed spinning blade that shaves the ice. It does NOT crush ice at all. It produces a fine snow. I hope this helps you.

No. This is dangerous and will break apart as you use it if you attempt to crush ice.

Yes just regular ice cubes work great! The opening is too small for ice blocks actually. The machine works great for the low price!

I haven't tried this one specifically for ice cubes, but I do have silicone ice molds that work very well. Seeing as it's made of the same material, I don't think why it wouldn't.

No, but it crushes ice great - can't see why it couldn't keep light cracker crumbs moving well enough inside to be crumbed. Make sure everything's dry.

I have used cube ice and small blocks of ice and still get the same result. It has a good grinder on it. You just can't over fill it or it won't grind the ice.

Yes. It works well on nuts, bacon, and other crunchy foods. I would not recommend it for ice.

It will definitely crush ice and rip through softer foods, but it is not compact the shaft is probably around 11 inches in length. But the thing has plenty -o-power.

We use ice cubes but you could use a block of ice if you break it up. As long as it fits down the chute the machine will chip it up. I would not use crushed ice because that would make slush.

Yes, it works well even thought a pastry tip. Perfect for squeezing purees into cube trays.

No, the 'blade' is plastic and isn't sharp. It mixes liquids well, but won't crush ice.

Yes, but this product is small and not very powerful. It will only hold about 3 cubes at a time
