Using the Yonanas frozen treat maker is easy and fast. From the first use the dessert created was delicious. If using just fruit, zero points plus on the Weight Watchers program is a big added bonus. Very Impressed
The dessert that this machine makes is so incredibly YUMMY! I follow the Weight Watchers program and I LOVE fruited ice creams but they are too many WW points. I made black cherry yonanas this summer (black cherries and bananas, frozen...that's it) and as I was eating it I couldn't believe how great it tasted and how much it "felt like" ice cream! ZERO POINTS! I do find that I have to allow my frozen fruit to sit out about 5 minutes and it makes the perfect consistency! I've recommended this product to all my WW friends!"
Outstanding buy! Arrived in 2 days, very simple operation. Easy to assemble and disassemble for cleaning. Made bananas and mixed berries our first night and our 8 month old loved them. Great alternative to ice cream.
Have you looked at the price of ice cream lately? We enjoy making our own ice cream substitute, and even the granddaughters like it. When we know they're coming we make sure we have lots of different 'ingredients' in the freezer, and they can choose how they want theirs individually made. Each of them loves to put in their own special treat; the latest is chocolate malted balls. Plan to give one as a Christmas present.
My fiance and I got this as a wedding shower gift; the minute we got it home we just had to try it. We were kind of bummed we had to wait to freeze the fruit but it was well worth it. We used some bananas, strawberries and a couple of kiwi and we all loved it (even my 11 year old picky son)! I would recommend this to anyone who has kids.
I loved the concept of this item. And I have been thrilled with the performance. It is a bit loud - but the bananas come out very smooth, just like ice cream. I've made several of the recipes and have been happy with each of them. Not overly banana-y. Definitely has cut down on our ice cream consumption. Color could be off putting for some - as the bananas will start to brown. I do recommend this and have done so to my family and friends.
We love this machine for producing 'ice cream - like' desserts. Many recipes to try and the finished product is like soft serve ice cream, but does not melt quickly like homemade ice cream. And you can make a large batch and store in the freezer to serve at a later time. Easy clean up. No salt to buy or large amounts of ice cubes needed. Well worth the price we paid.
I don't eat enough fruit and vegetables. This product has made eating fruit a daily event to look forward to, especially since I can now buy frozen fruit and/or freeze them myself so they last longer. As the price of fruit keeps going up, it's very costly to throw away anything that goes bad. Even better, what comes out of it is superior to any store-bought yogurt or ice cream I have had... in BOTH taste and nutritional value.I have been putting in a single large banana, a few strawberries and a few blueberries. I then add a scoop or two of protein powder for both the chocolate flavor and the added protein. The result is like having a banana split or chocolate covered strawberriesClean up is a breeze. The mechanical base never gets dirty and doesn't need cleaned more than any other counter-top appliance. I am beyond happy with this thing. What a great combination of health and convenience provided in one product. It sits right next to the coffee maker and is used as regularly.
