Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

Used this during Thanksgiving and had nothing but COMPLIMENTS...What I loved about this is that 1st, it's made in the good ole' USA!!!...That's the first thing you see on the box...2nd, the ice cone is in the middle which cools your beverage more evenly and makes changing out the water from the melted ice effortless...I have friends that have the ice bowl at the bottom of their beverage dispenser...The problem with those is when you need to empty the melted ice water but have plenty of beverage left in your container...It gets REAL awkward holding the heavy container while someone goes to dump the water and refill with new ice cubes...Trust me, I know because I'm usually the one holding the dispenser!...We were able to recycle the melted water (in the pet bowls...go recycling!) and refill with fresh ice cubes with NO problems!!!...The 3rd thing I love about this is that it has measuring marks on the dispenser...Another thing I noticed my friends not having on theirs...This assisted with mixing the rum punch that we used this beverage dispenser for...I did read one review where a woman felt like it didn't look as clean and shiny after her 1st use...I treated mines like I would any car window or mirror...If you let it dry with water drops, then it's not going to look all shiny and clear...If you wipe it out and rub it good like you would a window or side mirrors on your car, it looks great for use again!...That seemed to work for me.
