Slushy Magic Review:
I saw this infomercial for the slush magic tonight. I had to buy it. It seems awesome. Basically the slushy magic super-freezes any drink in about two minutes. It works. My favorite to make is actually chocolate milk. It kind of resembles a frosty from Wendy’s (not as thick, but probably healthier).
From the Infomercial:
Slushy Magic is easy to use – all you have to do is freeze the magic cubes in the freezer, place them into your Slushy Magic cup, pour in your drink, and shake to make your slushy! Then you rinse the cubes in warm water when you’re done and put them back in the freezer to get them ready for your next drink.
Slushy Magic Features & Benefits:
The main benefit is that your kids can make slushy drinks without adult supervision. They do not need to work a blender. All they do is throw ice cubs into cup, add their favorite drink and shake. Since they can drink right from the cup, you do not have to worry about a huge mess.
The ice cubs are BPA-free — they are non-toxic — so they are never a danger to your children. While the cubes are not dishwasher safe, you wall all other parts in the dishwasher.
You cannot use this with alcohol. This is because alcohol has a lower freezing temperature than water based drinks. Carbonated drinks also do not do that well because when you shake carbonated drinks, explosion.
Where to Buy Slushy Magic :
You can order Slushy Magic on their official website. (Remember, if you order on their official website to check the terms of the order carefully and read the fine print as this often changes).

Slushy Magic, How Does It Work?
Slushy magic works by freezing any drink into a slushy. The secret is the ‘magic’ ice cubes included. They are plastic cubes that contain salt water. It works because salt lowers the freezing temperature of water. So these ice cubs are much cooler. When you put it inside the bottle and shake — it makes a slushy. (It kind of works the same way and home-made ice cream machines work.
Since the ice cubes are in plastic, the process does not add any more water to the slushy. (It does not water down the substance).
Slushy Magic, Does It Really Work?
A lot of people say it works. There are some that don’t. The difference is how hard and long you shake it. It is best to give it to kids to really shake it up (hey, it’s a mini workout). Let them go for 2-3 minutes or longer until it morphs into a slushy. The process works — if it doesn’t you are not shaking hard or long enough.
In addition, make sure that you freeze the cubes completely. In this review, the family did not freeze the cubes totally and you can clearly see the cubes were not completely hard when they attempted to make the slushy.

Slushy Magic Tips?
Make sure you shake it for at least two minutes. Again, if you are not creating a slushy you are not shaking long enough or hard enough.

I saw it on Amazon.com so you do not need from the infomercial.
Slushy Magic Pros/Cons?

i read your web site and now i shake it for 4 min thank you for helping me
Thanks for posting that. I’m having a fit because it’s been ten days so I should expect longer then!
Um its been a month for me i just emailed them asking where my order is?
I have been waiting several weeks for my order as well. They have our email addresses and we should have been notified of any delay or backorder. Very poor customer service. I will be notifying the BBB if not resolved next week.
I saw it at toysRus
How long will this take ican not wait my whole life for it were is it and when will it be at my house
I placed my order January 9th and have not received the shipment nor have I had any communication via email. Very upset and will most likely cancel my order.
Order one in Aug 2011 have not received it yet. Whth.
I tracked my order through this site http://www.ontelproductsorderstatus.com/ As far as I can see slushy magics are on backorder right now. Hope that helps. I suspect we’ll get some kind of update soon.
We ordered ours in December and finally got it today. Ice cubes have been in the freezer for 5 hours now and they are still not any harder.
Our cubes have been in the freezer for two weeks and haven’t even got slushy let along frozen!
what a waste! one very disappointed child at home waiting for a slushy
Mine did that 2 I had to leave them over night to get hard but the don’t have to be hard just slushy like to make a slushy with juice kool aid stuff like that.
The salt in the cubes lowers the freezing temperature of the water at much as 18 degrees F. A standard freezer on a middle setting (my 2000 Frigidaire has a 1-5 scale, set at 3 in the middle) may not reach this new freezing temp for the water, but the water inside is still far colder than a standard ice cube. Even without it fully frozen, it should be rather effective.
I found mine at WalMart!! It was in the “as seen on TV” section.
Did the walmart ones work well?
Order it in November but just received the order yesterday. Just put cubes in the refrig. Will email if works.
Finally got my order today after a month after I ordered it… Works ok only used it once so far!!!!
Hello! I finally received my order a couple of days ago and I’ve been slushing away. It works well.
Harley, the cubes don’t have to be rock hard to work. I couldn’t wait to try mine so I put them in when they were still soft, but very cold and it still worked with a light beverage. I assume something heavier like milk or yogurt will need very frozen cubes.
I put my order in the second week of January, so it does take a little more than a month to receive it. When I called, they just explained the product is so popular it was backordered. Would love to hear everyone’s experience once you receive it.
Hope that helps!
Hey got mine today been freezing since 3:09 and it’s a little slushy should I start mixing. Will it really start exploding if you put soda in there. I got mine at Walgreens too or 15.00
I got this for my 7th birthday and it is amazing! I think the chocolate slushy is awesome. Go get one for yourself!
My kid got one. It works really well. Try the chocolate milk slushi my kids and i loved it.
i’m gonna get one today’looking for reviews so i can see if it works, to my opinion so far i ask you to not order them on line im getting them at CVS
even your local pharmacy may have them but in stead of paying $19,99+s/h i’m only gonna pay $14.00 see its better
I just bought mine at Kroger last night, and I tried it and failed. I used Sunkist Strawberry soda, and I put the soda in the cup first. As I understand it, I’m supposed to put the cubes in first, so I’ll be trying again after my cubes are re-frozen. The tiny hole in the lid allowed for a lot of spilling, and I don’t think I had the lid on tightly because I had a mess. Better luck next time for me I suppose… I’ll likely post another review after my second attempt.
your suposed to put your thumb over the hole like in directioni honestly tryed it three times and i hated how it worked i didnot make a slushy it was the same when i put it in i am very dissapointed that they call this a slushy
Just tried it for the first time! Got it at Wal-Mart. You have to shake it really really hard, and it takes a little longer than 2 minutes, but it is really really good once you get the hang of it, lol. This is fun, will be making many more, thank you!
yeah are you sure ours must be broke or something it dosent work at all.
Umm….well this thing dont work because it makes solid ice and not a slushy. We had to keep tryin over but it still dont work we, shake it for 2 minutes but it still watery.please note that i will make sure we never purchase anything that has to do with slushy magic thank you and have a nice day!
I will try shaking it for 4 minutes like someone wrote because my drinks are not turning into slushies.
Good thing I only paid $6 for mine at Pavilions.
its goood
i have an 11 year old son that just has to have slushy didntmagic, ever since he seen the infomercial. One day while in walmart I seen it and surprised him with it …He was so excited. So He tried Kool-aid..in the slushy magic.. It didn’t work then he tried sprite.. did not work .I want my MONEY Back. Walmart can have it. Do Not buy.
it didnt work we tried shaking it for 6 minuts it didnt work
its ok like my slushy turns out kinda good kinda bad but i only paid 15 bucks 4 it soooooo u know im happy… and try the blue rasberry slushy OMG DELISH!!!!!!!!!!!!
I had to shake the thing for a long time but it did make slush. I used coffe I had put in the freezer to cool off . Once it was cold, I put it in the cup with the cubes. Took a while to shake it to slush. My arms are tired. But the icy slushy coffee is great! SO…. use COLD liquids and be ready for some exercise, and make sure the lid is on, and it’s okay. Not great, but okay. Oh yeah, the cubes never seem to freeze HARD like ice even left in the freezer overnight. However, despite all that i got a slushy. yum!
The instruction says to freeze the cubes 2 to 3 hours, well the cubes never froze in that amount of time. Box states “Makes Slushies in Seconds” where does 120 seconds (2 mins) is more like it. Also the lid does not secure tightly and you can over tighten really easy and the lid will pop off and you have to re screw the lid again. Grrrrrr….
my friend had this. it really works! i like it with blue poweraid
My mom got me a slushy magic for my dorm room. It seemed really cool, and I was really excited to try it. After shaking it for a long time and making a fool out of myself in front of my roommates, I realized that it just wasn’t going to work. The directions say that the colder the liquid initially, the better the product works, so I just put the whole thing in the freezer for about an hour, shook it once it came out, and actually had a slushy. I’d definitely recommend that to anyone who’s shaking it for over 3 minutes. So far I’ve tried this with both V8 Splash and Arizona Green Tea. I don’t drink soda, so the carbonation spills arent a big deal for me… it does leak a bit even with juice though. I wish there was room for more liquid without compromising the way the drink freezes.
Slushy Magic does NOT work at all. I shook it for 1.5 minutes like it said you should and it is the same drink with no slush at all. I am very upset with this product. I would rate it 1 out of 5 stars.
