We love it, my boyfriend wants me to make ice cream all the time. It tastes wonderful! Takes 4 or 5 minutes to mix ingredients and 30 minutes later ice cream!

I've only used it once so far, so maybe it's just that I haven't gotten the hang of using it yet, but the one time I made ice cream, using one of the recipes from the booklet that came with it, it ran down over the sides of the machine and over the sides of the freezer bowl into the well of the machine itself. It was a mess to clean! I'm really hoping that when I try again I have better luck because otherwise, this will just be another one of those appliances that gets shoved into the back corners of a cabinet and never used. On the plus side, it did taste good after what was left in the machine was put in a container and frozen for a couple of hours.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

I have used 1 of the 3 features. Sorbet. It is very good at making sorbet in 15 to 20 minutes, (after prepping whatever fresh fruit and simple syrup in a food processor). Simply made to a fluffy consistency of my choice. I have used it 4 times with consistent results. Keep the bowl in the deep freeze so it is always ready.

2nd Cuisinart ice cream maker for our family. The ice cream is consistent. I do like the larger tub size. The ice cream maker is still a bit louder than I would like. The lid doesn't lock in place so we've had to resort to placing heavy books on top to keep the lid from moving. I think for the quality of ice cream this is a good price. No need to spend more money.

Had an old simple Cuisinart ice cream maker that was simply on off. Got this as a replacement based on reviews and very happy with my decision. Three speeds, although I've only used the ice cream speed. It's much faster than my old one, does a great job in quickly freezing the mixture. Can't go wrong with machine.
I would recommend this to a friend!
