HICE Drink Chiller Rapid Beverage Cooler - Hyper Spin Instant Can & Bottle Cooler, No Batteries, Frost Cooling for Soda, Beer & Water, Mini Universal Drink Cool, Fast & Coldest Freeze (Mint Green)

We've been getting so much use out of this. I try playing a psychological game with myself where I don't keep my Pepsi in the fridge so I'll drink less. That either means I need ice, I need to plan ahead, or I toss it in the freezer for a bit and hope I don't forget. This thing takes care of all my problems. It does take a few minutes where you fill it with ice(I like crushed) then just spin it for a minute or two and boom; ice cold drink. You'll figure out the right amount to fill it after a few tries but because the crank end slides in from the top and the suction cup is flexible it's pretty forgiving. As the ice melts you can slide the crank down a little too. There are gears in there too so you can spin slower and the drink still moves pretty quick. It's nice that they include a cover but honestly I never use it because its done so fast. I do appreciate the different sized drinks that can be accommodated but for me it has just been 12 oz cans and it's has worked great. It is all plastic however I've never felt any particular part was made to cheaply to hold up to the job for many uses.

Keep drinks cold easy to refill and chill well made

I got this because I don’t have enough plugins in my room for a mini fridge and I only drink cans pop once in a while, so this works to chill them. This does take a little bit of time to do. You have to put your drink in, then your ice, then crank it for a couple minutes to get it cold. It would’ve been better if this had been electric to get rid of all that hand cranking. You do have to put it together first, which the instructions are OK but not the greatest. One thing I should have told you that crushed ice is actually better to use than cubed so if you do use the crushed ice, it does chill it a lot better. It matched the description in the ad.

This actually works if you are looking for a quick way to chill drinks with ice. I am able to quiclky chill drinks at parties with just ice.

This gadget definitely isn’t a must-have, but when the craving for an ice-cold drink strikes and you don’t feel like waiting for the freezer to do its thing, it’s surprisingly fun to use. With a bit of effort—and as long as you don’t overcrowd the bin with ice—it does the job well. Watching your drink get colder and colder as you crank it feels oddly satisfying.As a one-off novelty gift, or even as a creative way to get the kids to put in a little manual labor for their refreshment, this can turn into an entertaining experience. The best part? After working for their reward, they’ll end up with the perfect chilled beverage.It’s not the most serious solution to rapid drink cooling, but for what it’s worth, it’s actually quite fun once you get going. And if you add a little table salt to the ice, you can push the temperature down even further.When you add salt to ice, it makes the ice melt faster. But melting ice absorbs heat, so as the ice melts, it pulls heat away from your drink, making it colder, faster.So, a little salt helps the cooling process work better and quicker!Features:Removable insert—accommodates longer bottles or standard soda cansManual crank cooling—chills drinks without electricityCompact and portable—great for outdoor use and gatheringsFun, interactive experience—turn the crank and watch your drink cool down

This is a really good idea to cool down drinks and I was so excited to get one finally. I have been cooling my drinks for a while now in an old tupperware container by adding ice and water and spinning the can with my hand and they cool down really fast.Unfortunately there are a few flaws that really make this hard to use. First is with a regular can of soda I can barely get any ice cubes in around the drink because this is too narrow. It does work a little better with crushed ice but still not great. If I add a little water it ends up leaking out of the container and makes a big mess. With these two flaws it takes quite a bit longer to get the dink cooled down.It does have a nice simple mechanism for spinning the drink and it doesn't even lose any carbonation.it looks really nice and is a beautiful color and it seems to be made of nice materials that should last.

I can't believe this little doodad actually worked! It took a little bit of figuring out with making sure the can was securely suctioned and not adding too much ice, but once you figure it out, it will get your can ice cold! Very nice. I'm looking forward to using this again.

I requested this item due always having water bottles in my car while driving and delivery and them getting to warm to drink so I would purchase another one, and just rinse an repeat. I though this would be an interesting way to take warm drinks an make them cold again, or at least lower the temperature some.When I got the item I was disappointed that there were no instructions and I had to get online look at images and google to see how to work it. After following the instructions and getting the item setup and ready to use, which was way too frustrating. I turned the crank and it would partly turn and then fall off, i put the crank back and and had the same issue over and over. I tried going both clockwise and counter clock wise and it would turn a little and then get stuck. I checked an no ice was preventing it from moving, I tried to turn it again and heard a crack, i looked an a piece that the crank attaches to broke off. This require me to hold the crank on while trying to turn it.It eventually became so frustrating that i just threw it in the trash, as more parts started to appear to be breaking using only light force, barely enough to turn it with ice inside.This item is not worth the price, the time it takes to setup, fill with ice, and try to use and the high price makes buying a fresh cold drink a lot cheaper option. This item would be better if it wasn't made out of some cheap dollar store plastic and had some metal parts instead
