Review of the Margaritaville DM2000 Frozen Drink Machine
Posted on: September 1, 2011
The Margaritaville DM2000 may be more expensive than the very popular DM1000 model, but you may find the extra cost worth it once you learn more about this model. So, is it worth it getting this model instead of one of the cheaper ones? Continue reading as we explore this frozen drink maker in more detail.
Attributes
The first and most obvious enhancement that is present in the Margaritaville DM2000 is that it can create 4 different types of drinks automatically. The selection is done with a dial control on the front of the machine. The 4 drinks that you can create this way are margaritas, smoothies, mudslides and daiquiris. These should please most people.
The ice container is an important feature on these machines, and the DM2000 features an ice container double the size of the one found on the DM1000. So, as logic would suggest, you can make two times more drinks without refilling the ice hopper than you can on the smaller model.
So, if you just want to get your drinks done with the minimum fuss, the 4 drink automatic setting on the Margaritaville DM2000 will suit you just perfectly. There's no need to fiddle on your own to get the perfect balance for different types of drinks.
In addition, it makes the DM2000 the ultimate multi-function frozen drink maker. Add to this the ease of use it brings to the table and you have a real winner. It won't take long at all to make a drink. Just fill the hopper with ice, choose the sort of drink you want and place your mix of ingredients in the glass jar.
You may have a need to create a varying number of drinks every time. The Margaritaville DM2000 allows you to do this and you can set the machine to make one, two or three drinks at a time.
Quality goes hand in hand with the brand, and this model is no exception. Make sure you have enough room for it though. It is a pretty big and heavy appliance.
Price will be a big factor in your decision, and the DM2000 could cost as much as $80 more than the previous model in line, depending on various in-store factors. For this you get the double sized ice container and of course the automated drink settings.
You should look towards the more featured DM3000 model if you are a bit of a party animal and love to host. Under all other circumstances, the Margaritaville DM2000 is a great frozen drink maker and should be perfect for most people.
