An Expensive Novelty - Our Guests Will Love It
By Conspicuous Consumer
Review of the Margaritaville Mixed Drink Maker, currently $300.How it works:Load one liquor (rum, vodka, or tequila) in one canister and load the other canisters with sour, cranberry juice, and pulp-free orange juice.Turn the dial to select one of 16 drinks that use a combination of the four liquids.Produces 8 oz of mixed drink designed to be mixed with 8 oz of ice. You'll be able to make 15 to 17 drinks before having to refill the canisters.I uploaded a list of the drinks you can make with each liquor.Go to margaritavillecargo dot com and watch the videos.Pros:- Looks cool - will impress your alcoholic friends- Well made - should hold up for at least a couple of years- Ease of set-up, use and clean up - can even be used drunk- Lightweight and portable (when empty)- Can get a single shot of liquor (my feature of choice)Cons:- Manufacturer recommends that you don't substitute juices- Can't use carbonated beverages- Can't use juices with pulp- Doesn't chill drinks- Can't move a filled machine- Extra tanks not available even though the website says they should be- Short cord (2') but nothing that can't be fixed with an extension cord- Alcoholic friends and relatives will only drink more because of the novelty of the thing- Can't make frozen margaritas (no big deal - more of an observation)- Only holds one liquor at a time so you'll need three if you want to offer those freeloading guests a full variety of options- Can't make Bloody Mary's with the vodka (lost a star for that one)- That isn't my recipe for a MargaritaBottom Line:An expensive alternative to making the drinks yourself but still a lot of fun.Two month followup - we just completed the holiday season with numerous parties and didn't find ourselves using this much. Primarily the hassle of setup and cleanup combined with an inability to make Bloody Marys and Margaritas as we like them made it not worth the effort. Maybe we'll use it more in the summer.

An Expensive Bells and Whistles Ice-Coater...
By Mark J. Fowler
The Margaritaville Mixed Drink Machine is an expensive little bit of fun. At the moment the Mrs. And I can think of no real competitor... if you're looking for a machine that will act as a mini-bartender and dispense a variety of mixed drinks, this is the machine.There is a definite limited-duration "wow" factor for the MMDM once set up - and the set-up is quite easy, as is the clean-up for a device with so many parts. In addition to ease of setup and cleaning the machine seems pretty sturdy - plastic parts are mixed with metal ones, but there isn't a "cheap, flimsy" feeling. There are four tanks that are loaded on top of the machine: Orange Juice, Cranberry Juice, Sour Mix, and your choice of Tequila, Rum or Vodka.After you've correctly loaded the machine and punched the button choosing the liquor of choice the machine gives a cheer (really) and tells you "Fins Up!" Then the show starts. There is a dial you turn to choose one of the 16 drinks that can be made with your collection of ingredients, or you can press the adjacent "I Feel Lucky" button and the dial spins like a roulette wheel before landing on a random drink. Perhaps the highlight of the machine is the "strong" button on the other side of the dial - when you depress this switch it squirts out a double shot of the liquor, and decreases the rest of the mixers so that the total volume dispensed remains the same. There is a definite difference between a Hurricane made with 1 vs 2 oz of rum.There are limitations...The machine allows 48 *total* drink selections, but at any given moment you can only select one of the 16 that correspond to the liquor you have installed. Everyone present agreed that the *optimal* version of the machine would have all 3 liquors installed so you can actually choose from among the 48 choices. The tanks just sit up on top of the machine at ambient temperature - so if you don't quickly dispense the drinks your ingredients warm to room (or outdoor) temperature. One obvious use of the machine would be for outdoor summer parties, and even over ice a warm screwdriver isn't as good as a chilly one. We hope a future version of the machine will chill the ingredients.Other limitations - we followed the often-repeated advice to NOT MOVE the machine once set up, but we imagine that advice is given based on other people dumping several tanks of liquid trying to move the machine. The electrical cord is only about 3 feet long, so we had to use an extension cord to plug it in.We received the machine as a trial - for this review - and we wanted to give honest feedback, so we asked everyone at the party where we debuted the machine "would you buy this?" and asked folks what they thought was a fair price. The machine lists for $299, and the consensus was that this was an exorbitant price unless you had "money to burn". The "fair price" responses ranged from $70 to $200. People pointed out that the machine has relatively limited usefulness - you wouldn't set it up just to make a nightcap.So - if you want to have the newest "gee whiz" drink dispensing gizmo at your next pool party, the MMDM fits the bill. But, as was oft repeated at our party "for $299, you should have more choices..."Cheers.

Love it!!!!!!!!
By Neeto
This is our 2nd Margaritaville machine, we absolutely love our 1st machine the Tahiti DM3000. We decided to invest in the mixed drink maker because our 1st machine was such a hit at parties. The "I feel lucky" button is sooo much fun, everyone fights to make me a drink. Just a warning drunken roulette is a great time that night but mornings are a little rough. I highly recommend this machine, we have a few friends already saving up for one. Side note: Amazon.com will ship to Canada.
