I love this ice cream maker! It is so easy to use and is much quieter than I expected. The pots fit nicely in my small freezer. I wish I could buy more pots without having to buy another Fast Freeze. Makes wonderful, creamy ice cream very fast. A little hard to push the blades forward and hold them to clean. Overall, fairly easy to clean. It's just a perfect ice cream maker for me.

love this bad boy! I'd love it more (as in that last star to make this a 5* review) if I could get my hands on additional dessert cups as a set of three that I could purchase separately!

I made a delicious ice cream tweaking one of the recipes in the booklet. It's easy to use and even easier to clean.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Can't remove cup!

Because of cancer, I avoid sugar, so I was looking forward to making sugar-free ice cream. I have many medical and PT appointments, so finally found time to use this. I watched several videos, then prepared the ice cream, and froze it per instructions. This morning I took my laptop to the kitchen, to be sure to follow instructions correctly. Took cup from freezer, let it sit for 10 minutes. Then attached cup to mixing assembly, attached cup to mixing assembly, connected the power handle to mixing assembly, plugged the unit in, pressed power button, followed instructions 10 thru 13 in the Cuisinart manual. Now I can't remove cup from mixing assembly. I asked Google, and have tried suggestions: wrapping in a warm towel, using hair dryer on low. It's been over an hour, and cup is still stuck. It will not turn to the unlocked position. Side effects from chemo, radiation limit my time and activity. If I can get the cup to separate, I'll try again. Will change rating if I can master this!
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Hello- Thank you for taking the time to share your review with us about your Cuisinart. Please make sure you are removing the motor base before trying to remove the cups. This will disconnect the cups allowing them to be removed.

Best ice cream machine ever. Easy to use. Easy to clean. Makes smooth ice cream and smoothies. It’s so much faster than the bigger machines and great for drawer storage.

This is the perfect size for me and makes awesome ice cream! I have food allergies so I have to use soy milk and I also have to watch my sugar intake so I eat a small amount of my ice cream after dinner. This makes a cup of ice cream and although it's hard to stop eating it because it's sooo good, I can make the container last for up to seven days. I came up with my own recipe for chocolate peanut butter chocolate chip ice cream and you would never know it's not real ice cream. I just mix everything together in the container, put it in the freezer for 24 hours and then within three minutes I have awesome ice cream!

Great machine for making cream. Simple to operate, freeze mixture and in 24 hours you’re enjoying the results. Only Con is they need to have extra containers to purchase on line. 3 pint containers included with unit aren’t enough, especially if you have a family!
