After checking the cost of renting a snow cone machine for several days for an upcoming event, I realized I could purchase a new, good quality unit for about the same price as a rental. After comparing various manufacturers and models, I settled on the Paragon Simply A Blast. It seemed like the best value for the features that it offered.
The unit arrived well packaged in a sturdy box with plenty of foam cushioning in the corners, and was easy to set up. It was ready to go out of the box, with the exception of attaching the pusher to the grinding assembly, a matter of removing and retightening one bolt.
This is a heavy unit and is definately not portable. It weighs about 50 pounds and there are no handles or convenient spots to grab it on the bottom to carry it around. The two sides and the "back" -- the side away from the operator, are glass panels and the front side is open. The glass does add to the weight -- polycarbonate panels would make it lighter, but also more expensive.
I will probably purchase a door kit, as ice does splatter around when it shoots down into the tray. Some ice does fly out the open front side and goes onto the operator and onto the floor. Not a big nuisance but it could be if you were running it all day and didn't have an apron on.
Also included is a useful owner's manual, an allen wrench for adjusting the blades to make finer or coarser ice, and a plastic scoop for making snow cones.
Overall, I like this unit a lot and have plans for lots of ways to use this to make some extra money on the side after the big event is over that I purchased it for.
