Chrissy Teigen's $50 Snow Cone Machine Is What You Need This Summer

From House Beautiful

Summer is only two days away, and that means the heat is coming. The air conditioners are about to be put on blast and 10 percent of our paychecks are about to be spent on ice cream, snow cones, and other cool treats-or maybe not.

Chrissy Teigen posted a video on Twitter of herself and her oh so adorable daughter, Luna, using the Cuisinart snow cone maker–and she swears by it #summeressential.

If Chrissy Teigen swears by something then so do I, because she has never steered me wrong when it comes to food or appliances. But the great thing about this particular Chrissy find is that it doesn't come with a supermodel price tag. That's right, the snow cone machine is only $50.

Plus, the appliance comes with safety features, so it's safe for you and your little cub (my mom still calls me her 'little cub' but I digress). When you're ready to make a snow cone, all you need to do is insert some ice, pull the plastic lever, and watch the magic happen.

Now you have unlimited snow cones for the entire summer. Bonus: it's portable, so you can literally take it anywhere (are my New York City subway rides about to get way better?).

One customer left a review raving about her experience: "This machine is fantastic. I like the safety features in it. The machine will not run if the lid is open or the ice tray removed. I got tired of paying over $3 for a small snow cone at the local stand so I invested in the Crisinart. It is AWESOME!" The customer went on to say, "We took it to the beach and to a birthday party and it was a huge hit. I love the crushed ice all day long. It's pretty addictive."
