There are a few key points to consider when renting a Margarita machine for your party or event. The first thing to research is the length of time the rental company has been in business. Many party rental companies pop up and go out of business every year. Some companies have a couple machines and are weekend warriors that just do a few weekend rentals now and then. Stay away from this type of company. If your rental company doesn’t have extensive experience with the equipment they are renting they won’t be able to support you if a situation should arise. Look for a seasoned company with many years of experience so they know the best equipment to rent to you for your situation and also know how to optimize your experience. A company with years of experience and many rentals will have a much better idea of how their equipment will work in all different conditions. Don’t let your party or event be ruined by the company that is still learning how the Margarita machine rental business and their equipment works. Research the rental companies reviews on websites such as Yelp.
Look at the equipment they rent and ask questions about freeze time and power requirements. Some of the commercial machines draw close to 12 amps which means they are very close to maxing out a normal 15 amp household circuit. This means you need to know if any other plugs that may be on the same circuit are being used and how much power that device is drawing. The 12 amp machines almost always need to be on a dedicated circuit. While this is advisable for any Margarita machine some machines draw as little as 8.5 amps and work great in less than optimal conditions. Many times the 12 amp machines do not perform well because they don’t get the power required to operate efficiently. Bigger isn't always better.
What kind of drink mix does rental company use? Is it a mass produced off the shelf mediocre mix, or is it a custom formula designed with premium taste and ease of use in frozen Margarita machines in mind? This is also important in the performance of the Margarita machine.
The bottom line is, all Margarita machine rental companies are not created equal, so do a little research and pick an experienced company that will make sure your party or event is a success.
