Save $150: The Ninja Slushi 88 oz machine is on sale for $200 (that's 42% off and $150 savings) ahead of Amazon Prime Day. This is well below the lowest price we've previously seen the Ninja Slushi sell for, which was $240 earlier this year.

I've had the chance to test the Ninja Slushi for several months, and it's been an impressive upgrade to my kitchen appliance repertoire. While it's certainly not a necessity, it's fun and easy to use, and can turn nearly any drink into a frozen treat in under 30 minutes.
There are a few different capacity options spanning from 72 to 150 ounces. I tested the Slushi Max model, which has a maximum liquid fill capacity of 112 oz. The Max model shares most major features with the smaller-capacity options, but it also features Ninja's SlushAssist system, which automatically adjusts temperature for the perfect slush depending on your liquid of choice, and a few more advanced settings.

Besides this button, the machines generally all function the same way, with the liquid max capacity and some slush modes being the only thing that sets most of them apart. Essentially, the larger you go in liquid capacity, the more features become available. The Ninja Slushi features a few quick pieces that assemble and disassemble for easy cleaning.
