Ice cream is easy to make and the machine overall works well. However, on use number 2 it started squeaking during churning, very loudly. It has continued doing that on each churning.

This is a great ice cream maker. I debated for awhile because of the price, but it’s totally worth it. Because it has a compressor, I don’t have to plan ahead and freeze a canister ahead of time to make ice cream. It’s super easy to make delicious ice cream and I am looking forward to trying different recipes. I trust the Cuisinart name and know if anything goes wrong, I can trust customer service to help me out.

The unit is easy to use and makes just enough for a week’s worth for a single person. I have a hard time getting the paddle out and scraped off before the gelato begins to melt. Suggest buying a book of recipes to stimulate your creative thoughts. Won’t replace supermarket purchases entirely but can definitely expand your horizons.

Works fine. Definitely don’t overfill it! Will not work. Machine stops when ice cream is “hard” & won’t turn back on fir add-ins even if it hadn’t run the entire time (about 45 or 50 minutes). You must watch the consistency to determine when to add in other items. Was really looking forward a more consistent and automated process. The ice cream maker works but isn’t as simple as instructions make it seem.

This was a splurge, and I really love it. I have made vegan vanilla with rice milk and also with oat milk and oat cream. Both really good—the oat milk was creamier and the favorite. The regular recipes are really amazing. Only downside is that, although the ice cream takes 45-50 minutes to make, it all has to be pre-mixed and chilled for several hours first. So you can’t just decide to make some ice cream...it takes a little planning! But the appliance is easy to use, and I definitely give it 5 stars. It does what it says it does!
