Does it crush ice cubes?

Yes! I have had mine for about a year and a half - my ice cubes still get crushed into a snowlike consistancy! We make smoothies all the time.

NO!!! It says it does but the first time I tried, the metal cutter in the center broke. Kitchen aid, send me another jug and it got loose and impossible to fix the way it is made. Even mashing bananas would loosen the "cutter" and leak all over. It ended in the bin. I had bought it because it said it has a ice cube setting. The base is really heavy and strong, too bad the top is not of the same quality.

Yes but you cannot fill it to the top with ice cubes only crushes about half way

You can crush the ice, but it will not be the same consistency as snow cone ice. We do not recommend using your BCCG08-RM1-000 to make snow cones.

No!!!!! I hated this grinder. I actually gave it one star after trying to use it. It actually grinded metal into the food, so I threw it away pronto. I don't recommend it at all! A blender works perfectly. I make purées in large batches and freeze in ice cube trays. Keep in ziplock bags in the freezer, then u have individual servings to thaw.

It certainly couldn't crush ice or anything like that. I guess it would aerate cold beverages, but on the other hand, it heats at the same time as it froths, so I would say no, it can't make ice beverages.

Haven't tried to crush ice, so don't know f for sure. It has done well w/frozen strawberries, so it would likely do fine w/ice.

I looked at the metal drive from underneath and it looks identical. It should work, howver this blade is justna mixer. It will not cut strawberries or even bananas. It wont crush ice either. Just for milk, ice cream, powder shakes and anything that doesnt need to break down. So know that its limited to just mixing. I dont use it much since I like to add fruits and ice. Wish you well.

Mine crushes ice very well, but the first time I tried to make a smoothie with just powder and ice it didn't do so well. It took a long time to get it smooth and then there were still some tiny chips of ice in the drink. It works great if you have a bit of liquid or fruit in with the ice (like half a cup of something).

No, it will make small, med, large cubes, but it doesnt make little pebble ice or ice chips.

Yes. It is large enough for ice cubes. However, it is a glass liner so you would need to use care in putting the ice cubes into it.

Not that I am aware of. It should make ice until you manually cut it off by pushing the arm all the way up until it locks in place.

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.

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. :)

One of the functions on my blender is "Ice Crush". I make smoothies with it all the time.

No it does not. If u take it out right after crushing it and freeze it it won't harden

Yes it picks up 2 cubes if you are adept.Tongs are small. I prefer using my scope-easily picks up all the ice I want.

No, it will adjust a little to shaved ice depth of cut but not like real crushed ice. You need a hammer and a towel or a polycarbonate pitcher (that won't break from ice chunks) blender for that.

I have not used it with ice cubes. I can't imagine that ice cubes would work as well as the ice forms it comes with. The ice would most likely by more course.
