I have tried several ice cream makers but they were always such a pain to use-ice, salt, and waiting was just too much of a process for me. So, when I saw this on Costco's website I was elated! You literally mix the ingredients, dump them in, and in an hour you have perfect homemade ice cream. Some people said "it is loud" but it just makes a whirring sound and that's it. I wouldn't want it sitting next to me while I was watching TV, but the convenience of it makes that a no big deal to me. Well worth it, and all of my friends said, "Wait, THAT'S an ice cream maker?" and loved it. Fast, easy, easy to clean (no dishwasher!) and the shape/size is storable. I am going to try to find additional stainless steel removable bowls though so I can get another load going while the other one is being eaten!
Makes terrific ice cream! I have not used the yogurt function since I use my IP for that. Big foot print so check your dimensions to ensure it will work for where you want it. Dairy and egg allergies in the household so purchased this to make vegan ice cream and it handles it beautifully!
I never thought I would make my own yogurt or ice cream, but this machine makes it so accessible. The operating menus are easy to navigate, the unit feels and sounds well-built, and I have been making yogurt and ice cream for a few months with it now without any problems.
I would recommend this to a friend!

The Best Thing in My Kitchen

I use this machine daily, often multiple times. It is so easy to use and does its job quickly without requiring me to think ahead to freeze a bowl and then wait for it to refreeze. My only wish is that it would have come with an additional bowl and blade.

We gave this as a gift to my dad this summer and had icecream every night, we missed it so much we had to get our own. It is so easy to make a batch of creamy delicious ice cream. We love this machine

I bought this ice cream since our youngest daughter absconded our freezer bowl maker last year. I’ve used it twice in one week and it’s absolutely great.
