Drink Machine with Timer from Ace Mart Restaurant Supply.com

Consumer: Bartenders and bar and restaurant owners

The purpose of the Drink Machine with Timer is to prepare drinks that require timed blending.

Pros: The Drink Machine with Timer is a very versatile piece of bar equipment. It holds a full half-gallon, but it will perform just as well when blending only four ounces. The stainless steel blade is built for endurance, and it has sealed ball bearings. There is also a sound muffler so normal conversation can still take place even as drinks are being blended.

The container holds a full 64 ounces and is made of clear polycarbonate that is virtually indestructible. However, if something should happen to the container, it can be replaced. The timer allows you to add all of the ingredients for a drink, set the timer, and walk away.

The motor is two-speed and two and one-half horsepower, so it is a very powerful little drink machine that will provide many years of pleasure.

Cons: The Drink Machine with Timer may not be sturdy enough to hold up under constant use such as what would occur in a public bar.

Guarantee: There is a guarantee of satisfaction posted on the Ace Mart website that reads in part, “If you're not completely satisfied with an online purchase, Ace Mart will gladly refund or exchange the product within 30 days of the ship date, less shipping charges.”

Value for money: The Drink Machine with Timer is a very good value, especially for home bars.
