We used to have a cuisinart that only made about 1.5 quarts but we like this taller one more as it makes more ice cream and it takes up less space.

Makes the best homemade frozen desserts we've ever had; also the quietest ice cream maker we've had.

I can't recommend this ice cream maker highly enough.

WE LOVE the compressor ice cream makers and they have found a permanent place in our home!Enjoy your Ice Cream

Being diabetic and having a surplus of fresh milk we are using this almost daily right now so also saving on our ice cream purchases making DELICIOUS fresh, sugar free iceream which all of the family enjoys as often as they can

The mix was a soft serve consistency which I froze in a Sumo container

After about 60 minutes we had soft serve type ice cream.

When your ice cream has churned and is finished, it will be the consistency of a soft serve

All ice cream machines (including commercial machines) get the mixture to a "soft serve" consistency and require freezing for further hardening to reach the "ice cream" stage.

It is still the only IC with Stainless Steel bowl and it makes the largest quantity of ice cream of any maker on the market in this price range

While the capacity of the stainless steel bowl is 2.1 quarts, the ingredients will often become ice cream before increasing volume to that level

n’t get it out of the bowl or off the churn if it’s frozen harder than that

This model seems quieter in running that the other Whynter model and zi like the stainless steel bowl.

The unit is primarily stainless steel, and when I unpackaged the unit, I noticed that there were two areas on the front of the unit where the stainless steel was poked OUTWARD.

This will pay for its self really soon and it will pay in the best way because I can control every ingredient in the ice cream while enjoying my fav

I should have returned it within the 30 days - but I thought I was doing things the wrong way

I learned the hard way (pun intended).Cleanup is easy and fast, even though the parts must be hand washed

Either way, I'm still quite happy to get 2 Qts (4 pints) of really good ice cream instead of the 2.5 Qts it claims to make

And if you have extra mix or want to go ahead and make another flavor right way you can.

I've made about 15 containers now of various flavored ice creams, with and without chocolate chips, raspberry swirl, etc., and every batch has been incredibly easy to make, super delicious results, and a no brainer to rinse the mixing bowl, lid and paddle attachment, ready to use again in a jiff.

I bought this as a Christmas present and we’ve used it several times and have enjoyed the results every time.

And a lot of other people's who have enjoyed the results.

The only thing that I don’t like is the time that it spends to make the ice cream.

Next time it stopped, it was at least more frozen, but still much less frozen than it should be

If your ingredients are cold (should not be frozen) when they go into the churn bowl, it can take substantially less time than the 60 minute timer is set to default for.

n’t get it out of the bowl or off the churn if it’s frozen harder than that

We've used it 3 times now and each time it worked good.

i’ve only used it twice so far I have made vanilla and chocolate chocolate chip both times the ice cream tasted great product was easy to use and clean .

Can't recommend this product unless you're handy with repairs like this

I had to search other sources to get tips on how to assure a creamier final product

Folks, this sweet machine is worth the extra $$$ (the best feature out of so many, is that it keeps your ice cream creamy cold until ready to serve)

I was tickled pink how incredibly simple and quick this endeavor was (machine does all the work) and keeps ice cream keeps cold until you're ready to serve

The machine isn't very noisy at all, you can carry on a conversation next to it

Hoping this is just a defective machine, I will try a new Whynter with

The machine is so easy to use and it makes great ice cream.

This machine churns the ice cream batter for over an hour and still it only gets to a slightly melty soft serve consistency.

n’t get it out of the bowl or off the churn if it’s frozen harder than that

Although the consistency of the Whynter was a bit harder.

The base is about 2-3 cups heavy cream to 2-3 cups half and half (play with the proportions to your taste, total is 5 cups liquid) with a cup of sugar melted in beforehand on stovetop, you can substitute up to 25% of a liquid sugar like agave nectar for a less hard consistency when fully frozen

The difference being that the finished product from the Cuisinart was of a soft serve cone consistency, from a ice cream establishment, whereas from the Whynter it was more of a scooped ice cream from the same soft serve establishment

The machine handled both beautifully and the ice cream and froyo were perfect straight from the machine.

Made ice cream for the first time and it worked perfectly

There are other ice cream machines - they probably work

This keeps the ice cream cold while you add other ingredients.

When the ice cream gets hard the mixer arm stops spinning-freezes.

This is only machine I found where you did not have to freeze the inside bowl in order to use

Love not having to freeze a bowl to make ice cream anymore

While the capacity of the stainless steel bowl is 2.1 quarts, the ingredients will often become ice cream before increasing volume to that level

With that said, I love the convenience of not having to freeze a bowl overnight

This model seems quieter in running that the other Whynter model and zi like the stainless steel bowl.

Frozen yogurt couldn't be easier with just 3 ingredients.

Very smooth ice cream and yogurt.

I buy soooo much ice cream and frozen yogurt and shakes...some for $13 a pop

I've made various ice creams, frozen yogurt, and gelato flavors which were deemed either comparable or better than the family's gold standard Fosselman's Ice Cream

I've used it to make ice cream and frozen yogurt, and the texture is about as close to store-bought ice cream as you can get

Juice may be deep chilled in the freezer.**The alcohol ensures a soft and creamy ice cream.

Put juice in small pan over medium heat; boil gently until reduced by half, 3-5 minutes

Deep chill the concentrated juice.*Push the fruit pulp through the strainer with a wooden spoon, discarding tough pulp and seeds
