Perfect soft serve at home!
I bought this for my boyfriend who is lactose intolerant and loves ice cream - especially soft serve. We used Fat Free Lactaid in the chocolate recipe and it came out perfect! I also substituted half the regular sugar for Splenda and you'd never know. Next time I substitute all since there is also brown sugar in the recipe. What a joy to have this machine! Can't wait to try the rest of the recipes!

Great soft serve icecream
I love my new soft serve icecream machine. It is easy to use and performs as advertised. Clean up is also easy. I didn't care for the vanilla recipe. It was too creamy for my taste, so I am going to experiment with more milk and less cream next time.

Best Purchase for Child
I purchased the soft serve ice cream machine for the family on Christmas! We love it! We have used it every night so far and have gotten very creative with doing coookies and cream. We have also mastered getting it in to the cone! this is a great family gift!

This is a great product
I love the ice cream maker. It works as stated, makes ice cream quickly. I made used it at Christmas for my grandchildten and great neice's, they all loved the ice cream. I filled the topping dispenser and it worked great. The ice cream dispenses pretty slow which is great because it is harder than it seems to get use to keeping it inside the cone and spinning. It was a great hit! I purchased an extra bowl but had plenty to make about 10 cones and still had more in the machine.

Lots of fun!
Fun concept for kids at a great price! It's not exactly like getting a "soft serve" from an ice cream shop, but it is a lot of fun to make at home. The ice cream takes longer to freeze up than I expected (about 30 minutes) so make sure you don't have a hungry group waiting... And if you let the ice cream churn too long, it will harden up and will not be able to come out the bottom.
Recipe is a bit rich but when I tried it with 1/2 & 1/2, the ice cream was icy, not creamy. Stick with the original recipe!

Good, but...
Machine works much like I thought and read in the reviews except the ice cream did not dispense as quickly as I had anticipated. Instead of a steady, flowing stream of ice cream like in the restaurants, you get a plop-plop of ice cream in the bowl.
Alos, the mini m&ms don't dispense in a nice continuous flow from the condiment holder.
