My girlfriend loved it
This was a huge hit. It really is pretty simple to assemble and makes creating frozen treats a breeze. One issue that keeps it from being 5 stars is one simple issue during cleanup. The mixing bowl with the self contained freezer pack is an amazing idea, but when you are done using the maker and you remove the bowl it drips out a little into the maker as it is removed. If they could figure out a way to only have to clean the bowl and nozzle when you are done it would be a 5 star product, but as it stands with the bowl dripping during removal, you have to clean the inside of the machine between the bowl and nozzle as well. Kind of a pain.
Its also a little noise, but quieter than most traditional ice cream makers

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!

Love it
Its very easy to use & clean . The recipes are easy to follow & taste great :-) We have only used it for soft serve ice cream so far but like it very much . One time we had some left over & stored it in a glass container with a lid in the freezer for desert the next night & it tasted just as nice .

Horrible Product
We tried to make soft serve ice cream 5 different times and the resulting product wasn't even thick enough to use as a milk shake. It was like drinking flavored milk. It does not work. Waste of time and money.

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.
