This ice cream maker is totally awesome. I am not a big ice cream eater, but during our current pandemic situation I have been experimenting with kitchen appliances and gadgets. Many of the items have gone into the "donations box." Not this baby!!! The machine is quiet, efficient, fast and makes great ice cream. I have used the recipes from the Cuisinart instruction booklet and they have been easy and great tasting. I have eaten more ice cream in the past month then I have in the last 5 years!!!!! Definitely a keeper.
I would recommend this to a friend!

I researched automatic ice cream makers for awhile before purchasing the Cuisinart 100. I love ice cream but hate all the commercial additives so I an so happy to ne able to make the best homemade ice cream ever! Its so easy and fun to use.

We have used our ice cream maker for about two months. In that time we have made eight batches. These are among the best ice cream/custards we have ever eaten. The machine cools the cream quickly and the paddle is very powerful - churning and infusing air making the mixture into a fluffy ice cream. While you can further freeze the ice cream to harden it, the paddle is strong enough to make “soft serve” ice cream. Awesome!
My only word of caution is that this high torque - or power to mix increasingly thick ice cream - comes at a cost. The machine is noisy - about the same level as our handheld vacuum. When we have dinner with family and friends, we put the maker in an adjacent room with the door closed to minimize the noise. This is a small inconvenience for the thrill that people get from eating such a delicious dessert. Well worth the cost.
I would recommend this to a friend!

We purchased this ice cream maker just due to the fact that it is a self freezing unit just like a commercial unit but at a fraction of the price.
In the USVI having this type of machine is the only way to make ice cream when the temps are in the upper 80's.
For two of us we make two base mixes a day ahead and refrigate.
Then we make up two batches the following day. We have to move fast to get the ice cream into the containers and into the freezer so having the holding option at the finish of the batch is important to keep the remaining batch cold in the unit.
Cons so far, its a heavy machine to move around.
The scrapers are hard to clean the ice cream off when the batch is finished.
Remaining clean up is fairly easy.
Nice thing is you can make test batches and not have several quarts of a failed test batch to eat.
We tried the peanut butter recipe in the booklet, way too sweet and peanut butter taste was overwhelming.
We only been using this machine for a month so far so good, hopefully we get some use out of this machine.
The vanilla is really good and we don't need to worry if the local stores are out of ice cream until the next boat arrives, just get milk and cream and plug this little guy in.
I would recommend this to a friend!

We absolutely love our new Cuisinart Ice Cream and Gelato Maker. We've made two batches, vanilla and butter pecan. Both were delicious and the recipes in the instruction book are easy to follow. Thanks, Cuisinart!
