Love the ice cream! Our old Ice Cream maker died and we were unsure about whether we would be as happy with this new maker. It's easy to use and the ice cream is ready faster. Love it!

Love this ice cream maker. It’s just the right size for me my husband & my mom. Always have leftovers. Just stick the canister in the freezer with the extra & have it the next night.

I ordered this for our summer reunion and it was perfect. We used a recipe I found online and followed the directions in the box for the Ice Cream Maker.Unboxing was easy and the Maker is quick to set up. We washed everything and started making ice cream right away.The little instruction book comes with a few recipes for different types of ice cream and we have yet to try those.With this recipe, it started to slow down and sound like it was stressing the motor after about 40 minutes. We set the timer for 45 so we turned it off early both times. The ice cream was soft serve quality and tasted amazing. We put it in glass containers and then into the freezer for about 2 hours before the kids got at it. We added strawberries for the second batch. I do recommend if you are going to add fruit make them super small when cutting. The strawberries we cut were big and they blocked the paddle so when it was done we had a big clump of strawberries. It still tasted amazing but we had to mix them with a spoon into the two containers so they were evenly distributed.The Recipe we used was 2 cups heavy cream, 2 cups half and half, 1 cup sugar, 2 teaspoons vanilla. Mix well.Also, we did not freeze the container before using it, I don't think it made a difference the second time.Love this and will make more of our own ice cream and try out new recipes.Clean-up was super easy, finding a place for it in our pantry took some moving around but we are super happy with the ice cream maker!

This was a gift. The machine does work but the lining did have a crack

The media could not be loaded. Makes a lot of perfectly scoop-able ice cream. So happy we purchased this one. It's not very heavy at all. Super easy to use. My thirteen year old daughter is actually now the designated ice cream maker! 😆 I love that we can make ice cream without all the ingredients from the store. The price for this is worth it! Has held up great for making a gallon of ice cream!

Bought in 2022 and used this maybe 3 times ever and then the Dasher broke. This spot is way too thin of playoff material to be expected to survive. It's an obvious Designed Failure Point. I am a mechanical engineer, I know, and I know this tactic by company's. I reached out to the manufacturer, expecting a redesigned and free replacement of this part. Not redesigned, and they also wanted $21 + S&H to replace this part that's just going to fail again. Now, why would I do that? To add to the insanity, due to high demand (I wonder why), the part is on backorder. IMHO, the company should be replacing these as a recall quite frankly. Amazon should pull them from the store as defective and for bad business tactic until they rectify their gross mistake. This is a obvious designed failure point that fails too easily. It's on backorder probably because they're failing in mass and people are ordering the part faster than they can make and replace them. The plastic is way too thin at this spot for what this part does. It's so obviously going to keep failing in this manner. Other models have this spot designed as metal, go look around and see for yourself. Many people will just buy another one vs repair. Cost of one part is too high of a percentage cost of just buying a new one. I cannot believe we dropped $80 bucks on it originally, to be honest. These same units are now going for about roughly $40-$50, probably because people are onto the shady design tactic, intent on boating units and party sales. I certainly will not buy another one of this brand to support bad business tactics. If they just make things to last and they'll get customers for life! Too bad it had ruined my daughters moment when we were about to make some ice cream. She was so looking forward to it all week.

Love this it is a very good design and will get a lot of use out it. Love Ice cream

GREAT!!!
