Customer Reviews for Cuisinart - Ice Cream and Gelato Maker - Stainless Steel

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!

Great Machine...Stay cool feature when Icecream is done does help alot when preparing for storing to stop melting. You don't have to worry about bowl temp and the leisure of Icecream making continuous is awesome. Make Icecream 3 times a week and keeps up with the challenge.Ice cream prepares quickly...

I wish that it has a bigger capacity than the 1-1/2 quart limit. It does a great job of making ice cream and gelato!

I have made ice cream, gelato and sorbet, and every one turned out great. It's easy to operate and to clean. The only drawback is that it's somewhat noisy.
I would recommend this to a friend!
