Amazing!!!:
I was a bit skeptical about buying this after reading all the mixed reviews. When we got it turns out everything works fine! Just have to keep an eye on it because it will get thick quickly once it starts...Other than that amazing!!!
would rate ZERO if possible:
Makes cold, sweet milk and a big mess. Tried several times. Froze bowl; chilled ingredients; checked periodically; and NEVER got anything like soft-serve ice cream. Would take it to Goodwill but I don't want anyone else to waste their money on this plus all the ingredients and only be disappointed!
This is a toy:
I bought this for my wife for Xmas. I pre-chilled the bowl and was ready to go today. I decided on their simple vanilla recipe. Basically, it made frozen whip cream. The problem with this machine is that you cannot regulate the thickness of the product. Second, if you try to let it thicken longer, the machine contorts and the top pops its' locks and the paddles and gear disengage. This is long before you could ever reach ice cream consistency and you cannot change the temperature to keep it from doing this.... more info
Fantastic and Fun:
We found the key to making great ice cream is to get some dry ice. Put the dry ice inside the bucket and into the freezer for about one hour. The dry ice accelerates the freezing and really works great for fast turnaround. Without the dry ice, the bucket has to freeze for a minimum of 20 or so hours. Awesome and fun machine..
