Our take on the Great Northern Popcorn Company Snow Cone Machine 250W Ice Shaver

The Great Northern Popcorn Company Snow Cone Machine is a 250W electric ice shaver that turns standard ice cubes into snow cone ice. It is rated at up to 6 lbs per minute, roughly 360 lbs per hour, with adjustable stainless-steel blades for finer or coarser texture and a 116.8-oz catch container. It stands 35.4 inches tall and weighs 34 lbs, so it suits a counter or cart rather than a cabinet. The best new price is $106.74 at Home Depot as of November 4, 2026, with three stores listing it new.

Questions and answers

Is this machine worth it for home use?
If you make snow cones or slushies often for a family or parties, yes. At $106.74 at Home Depot as of November 4, 2026, it costs more than small countertop shavers but shaves far faster. For occasional single servings, a cheaper hand-crank or small electric shaver is enough.
Does it use ice cubes or block ice?
It uses standard ice cubes only; it does not take block ice. Feed cubes through the top and the adjustable blade shaves them to your chosen texture.
How fast can it shave ice?
The 250W motor is rated at up to 6 lbs per minute, or about 360 lbs per hour. Real output depends on cube size and how fine you set the blade.
How big is it and where can I put it?
It is 15.7 inches wide, 11.8 inches deep and 35.4 inches tall, and weighs 34 lbs. Plan on a counter, cart or stand with clearance above for loading ice, not a cabinet.
What is included in the box?
The machine ships with the shaver unit and its 116.8-oz ice container. Check the listing for cups, cones or scoops, which are usually sold separately.
When is the price lowest?
Snow cone machines tend to drop in late summer and around winter holidays. The current best is $106.74 at Home Depot as of November 4, 2026; compare the other two stores before buying.
