Well it makes ice cream. LOL

This little machine makes ice cream very well, but it comes out a bit like a soft serve, except it tastes better than what you get in golden bows (mainly because it's fresh and not is made from a weird looking mushy liquid and you can choose what quality of ingredients to use). It's an absolute bargain for a bowl of ice cream, but not by much if you want to put it on a cone or in a beer truck. As I said, it makes soft ice cream. He was also a wonderful little friend. :-)

Pros
  • Makes a good feeling
Cons
  • Negative impression

I bought two of these devices. If I followed the instructions, started the machine empty and poured the contents while it was running, I had no problem making ice cream in 15 minutes. My problem is that after four uses, the nonstick coating starts to eat away at the metal powder on the surface of the bowl. If you look closely at the warranty, you have to pay for round-trip shipping to return the shells, which they may or may not replace at their discretion. I would call it a non-guarantee…

Pros
  • price
Cons
  • empty

Cheaply made and damaged.

This was advertised as 'like new' but there was a HOLE in the freezer which ripped off bits of metal and the non-stick coating. The car was so loud I wasn't sure if something was wrong. I returned this item in the hope that the seller would throw it away when it got to them. I'll spend the extra $10 on a "brand new" top brand. My son was very excited when it arrived as we had already bought all the ingredients for the ice cream but now it looks like we will have to wait even longer. These…

Pros
  • Delivery was very quick
Cons
  • Upgradeable

Very good entry-level machine

Very good entry-level machine. simple design that delivers what it promises. suggestion if you are just starting out. Make sure you leave this in the freezer until the last second, and always chill the dough in the freezer for at least 30 minutes to help it set faster. And the last one when everything is mixed by covering the top with a paper towel, this or something else to keep the inside cool = better results. Good for the price. Suitable for 2-3 people for a few days at most (small…

Pros
  • Solid construction
Cons
  • fragile

I like it and I've had success in many games.

I like it and have made many successful games so far. I even took it to my class and my students made ice cream in it. Cons: It needs to be frozen for a really long time to work properly. this is explained in the description and in the instructions for it. In addition, the freezer must be very cold. I even chill my ingredients just before use to reduce production time. I've tried making batches back to back, just chilling the bowl again for an hour, and that made milkshakes, not thick ice…

Pros
  • full set
Cons
  • embarrassed

This ice machine sucks!

So this product was delivered on January 4th. I was happy to be able to make ice cream with the kids. Result. This ice machine sucks! My daughter's kid ice cream maker works better than this one. I am extremely disappointed! I even have a Hamilton Beach Dehydrator that took 2 days to make beef jerky. I never wrote a review for it because I love giving second chances. However, I followed all the instructions for this ice cream maker, but I still had problems. It seemed to stop every 3-5 minutes…

Pros
  • Good product for the price
Cons
  • Crumpled packaging

Loud but effective

I grew up in the handmade homemade ice cream generation so this little device is quite amazing. I have to say it's LOUD. We have an open kitchen/living room concept and while it was running I couldn't hear my own thoughts so I placed it in the main bathroom with the door closed and set a timer to check it out in 30 minutes. I used the vanilla ice cream recipe from the book that came with it, and it spilled out of the container after 30 minutes, but it was frozen, so it wasn't a huge mess. There

Pros
  • Great design
Cons
  • Exchangeable

Followed all tips/recommendations and it didn't work

So far I'm pretty disappointed. I bought two of these with no intention of returning them but after using them I'm convinced I wasted my money. And yes, I followed all the helpful tips in the positive reviews. - I froze the freezer bowl for over 30 hours before first use. - I made the ice cream mix a day ahead and left it in the fridge. - 10 minutes before putting it in the car, I put the mixture in the freezer. - I plugged the hole in the top of the ice cream maker to keep cold air from…

Pros
  • understandable for the old ones too
Cons
  • A few little things

I bought this unit about 2 weeks ago and have used it 3 times in that time. Each time he successfully made thick ice cream in 20 minutes. There are some things people need to keep in mind when using the device to ensure success. #1 Freeze your device by turning the bowl upside down. If the device begins to thaw during use, the frozen parts will be closer to the top of the bowl where the air hole is located. This frozen gel base piece helps with ice making and causes the gel to move naturally…

Pros
  • Wide Range
Cons
  • Zero
