Margaritaville Bahamas Blender Review - Best Margarita Maker at Half the Price


If you want to do some serious entertaining the affordable DM0500 is a must have piece of equipment.


Whether you are in the kitchen, the backyard barbecue or lounging by the pool, the DM0500 is the perfect accessory. The Bahamas blends margaritas to the same consistency as a professional bartender.


Take a look at my reasons why the Bahamas (DM0500) is the perfect accessory for all types of parties.


Why The Margaritaville Bahamas Mixer?


Like the entire line of Margaritaville blenders, it shaves ice professionally and blends 36 ounces of frozen drinks (or one pitcher) in a single cycle. It features an ice reservoir and automatic settings for both blending and shaving. However, where you need to fine tune your guests' drinks, the Bahamas margarita maker has manual controls to give you the right touch to make a perfect drink every time.


Consistent with the entire line of of Margaritaville blenders, the Bahamas blender (DM0500) sports a durable design and a glass blending jar and stainless steel as well as chrome accents.


The Bahamas is available in tropical colors that let your guests know you are slinging drinks with a real frozen drink maker and not an underpowered off the shelf "civilian" blender.


What About The Cost Of The Bahamas?


If you need a professional grade blender, but were afraid about the price, the Bahamas frozen margarita maker is not that expensive. But, admittedly, the investment is a little greater than an off the shelf blender. On the other hand, where else can such a small investment reap such great rewards for such a long period of time?


If you had to pay retail for the Bahamas, you would pay about $300. However, online e-tailers such as Amazon.com, can deliver it for half that price.


Here Is What I Liked About The Bahamas


This model shaves ice just as well as the more expensive Margaritaville blenders. Your guests will not choke on chunks of unblended ice; and, I love how it blends slush style margaritas without leaving that nasty pool of water on top.


The Margaritaville Bahamas looks sharp and is priced right for the budget minded entertainer. It is easy to clean, maintain and use. Yes, even the most an amateur mixologist can use a DM0500 because it comes with an instruction booklet with recipes. So, you will get the hang of mixing great drinks in no time at all.


What I Did Not Like About The Bahamas


Unlike its bigger cousins, the Bahamas only has two drink settings; and, is a kind of loud. So, you should set it up away from conversation areas. Granted, there have not been any reports of parts breaking, it seems that with very heavy use, some of the parts might wear out or be subject to breakage over time. Margaritaville offers a one year warranty and replacement parts.


This Margaritaville Blender Is Worth The Investment


If you want the perfect drink on a budget, the DM0500 may be your best choice.


Regardless of whether or not you choose this model or another, your friends will not stop raving about how you are able to produce the same tasty concoctions at home are normally only found in a restaurant.


I understand that some amateur bartenders give pause to spending $160 on a frozen drink maker. You have to remember, however, that the Bahamas Margaritaville blender is a smaller version of the other bar tending blenders costing many times more than the Bahamas mixer.
