The ice cream mixture firms up in fairly short order, which is good; in fact, it firms up more quickly than in my regular ice-cream maker. Cleaning the paddle, however, is not fun, unless one is inclined to sacrifice a fair amount of ice cream lodged in the various nooks and crannies of the paddle. Other than that, cleaning is pretty much a breeze.
The reason I have this ice-cream maker stemmed from a question I posed my wife when we were at a ballgame this summer. While we indulged in soft-serve, I asked whether soft-serve makers were manufactured for home-use. She did not know, but learned that they were, with Cuisinart one of them. When my birthday came around, my present was, you guessed it, the Cuisinart. But here's the thing. If one expects the soft-serve from the Cuisinart to dispense as it does from one of those pricey ballpark models or the sort in use at soft-serve ice-cream stands, forget it. For one thing, the stream of ice cream dispensed with the Cuisinart is unpredictable--and for another, there's not much room in the dispensing area to manipulate the cone or to catch the swirls as they emerge, whichever way they drop, from the maker. Of course, it may be that I need more familiarity and practice with the machine to get my soft-serve to look as well-shaped as the ones in the Cuisinart pictures.
Finally, the recipe in the Instruction/Recipe booklet for the Chocolate Frozen Yogurt produces a soft-serve best avoided.

I love making ice cream, but I enjoy even more making ice milk. I love that I can control the fat level and the sugar level of my iced desert! I can be as creative as I want with this wonderful little machine.

Easy to use, cleaning is easy too. I keep the bowl in the freezer so it’s ready to go when we want ice cream. The vanilla takes a bit longer to get to correct consistency but taste is great- although will “melt” quickly in higher temperature weather.

This is the best thing next to a industrial soft serve machine. The recipes are easy and delicious. You can alter them as well. I just made chocolate banana ice cream and raspberry ice cream. Soooo good!

I bought for my grandkids to be able to make icecream together. Very easy to use a little loud. I haven't tried all the recipes but the ones we have are really good

PROS: Very well designed! Overall it is a great ice cream maker and the kids love it. Easy to find ingredients from the grocery store make the options and flavors endless. CONS: The “mix it in” containers really do not work well. Even with tiny toppings, the mixer dispensers don’t release the toppings unless you constantly tap the side of the machine.
