Thor 6-in-1 Slushie Machine vs Ninja SLUSHi

The Ninja SLUSHi is the safer pick for most households: it has a larger vessel, a self-serve pour spout, and a much bigger base of owner ratings. The Thor is the better fit for small kitchens and for anyone who wants milkshake and soft-serve modes in one compact unit. Both freeze without ice and hold drinks frozen for up to 12 hours, and both rate well, though the Ninja's 4.4 average from far more ratings is the more proven record.

• Choose the Thor if you have limited counter space and want soft ice cream and milkshake modes alongside slushies.
• Choose the Ninja SLUSHi if you regularly make batches for a crowd and want a self-serve spout and a bigger vessel.
