Title: fun to use, easy to clean
Review: Got this maker in pink and its so cute! It works just fine, but the bowl does take up a large space in the freezer. It also has to be kept in there for at least overnight, although I suggest a couple days. When I made ice cream the following day after placing it to freeze, the ice cream was not fully freezing up. It was still on the soft and runny side even though I had it churning for a while. Just make sure the bowl gets a good deep freeze and youâre good to go! Other than that, its simple to use, good price point, comes in fun colors, and very easy to clean so we have fun coming up with experimental ice cream flavors!

Title: Super Easy To Use!!!
Review: Hardest part about this is waiting for the inner freezer to freeze! I LOVE the idea of making my own sorbets and ice cream, using only the best ingredients. My first attempt was Strawberry Lime Sorbet. ABSOLUTELY DELICIOUS! I can hardly wait to make more. I also bought the 1.5 quart containers with the silicone lids that was suggested. Iâm buying more of them so I can have more flavors. Itâs extremely quiet, be sure to set a timer or youâll forget about it, lol. The pink one is stunning, I paid more for that color to support the cause.

Title: It's ð©· PINK
Review: I love this ice cream maker. It's a very simple device. Simply make your ice cream mix and chill it in the fridge per the directions. Freeze the metal bowl, put the mix in the bowl, and let the machine run and boom. 15-20 minutes later you have fresh churned ice cream. Delicious! Easy to clean, a little loud , but it's to be expected. A great little machine! And also, ITS PINK what's not to love?

Title: Simple ice cream maker
Review: There is only one on/off switch so it does not get any simpler to operate it. There is no need to read the manual.It makes soft ice cream. I have made blueberry, strawberry, mango, durian, peanut butter ice creams. The reason I make my own is you can use less sugar or even no sugar. You can go light on the cream. It comes with a number of recipes, but you can vary the dosage to your taste.I should say the machine is a bit larger than I expect, it does take up some counter space.

Title: Simple and makes great ice cream
Review: This is a very simple to use ice cream/frozen yogurt maker and it does a great job. Freeze the inner canister for a full day first, pour your ice ream mixture in, and churn. The only problem I have with it is that when you go to scoop out your ice cream it makes a real mess. Lots of ice cream gets stuck to the paddle and you have to scrape it off each area/blade so as not to lose 1/4 of your ice cream. As you do that, it starts to melt and gets everywhere. Iâm sure as I use it, Iâll get better at it, but thatâs my only complaint.

Title: Love it!
Review: I took a chance on this & bought it because my kitchen is pink. Not only is it cute, it works so well! I made my first batch of ice cream last night (cookies & cream) & it turned out so well!! I froze the âbowlâ for about 24 hours & let my ice cream mixture chill about 48 hours (just preference). It is easy to clean! I will say the setup confused me a bit. My bf did forgive it out & it worked great!! I definitely recommend.

Title: Having this machine is wonderful because you have full control over the ingredients and can make ice cream the way you want.
Review: I read the reviews carefully before selecting this machine. My machine arrived in perfect condition and sooner than expected. I cleaned the drum and put it in the freezer 24 hours. It was frozen solid when I used it and my ice cream came out perfect. My husband couldn't quit raving about it and how much better it tasted than store bought!It was rated highly but there were some one star ratings that said it wasn't powerful enough to thicken the ice cream and because the drum did not get cold enough to freeze the ice cream.Churning IssuesI believe that people complaining that it is not powerful enough to churn the ice cream should revisit their recipe. I found that when I put too much heavy whipping cream into the mix, it thickens really quickly and machine seems to be straining. When I used the proper mix of heavy whipping cream and milk, I didn't have that problem and the ice cream came out nice and smooth. Also, every ice cream maker creates a soft serve type consistency. If you want it to firm up, you need to dip it out of the drum and put it in the freezer for an hour or so. Also don't put bits of fruit or nuts into the churning mixture. Wait until after the ice cream is finished then fold that in my hand after you empty it into a bowl. The chunks will get caught between the paddle and drum and cause problems if you add them during the churn. Chunks are meant to be added later.Drum ProblemsYou cannot submerge the drum in water. I clearly says so in the manual. If you can't read the small print, Google Cuisinart ICE-21 Manual and download the pdf for this unit. I did that and it was way easier to read. I put mine in the freezer in the upright position for 24 hours before using it the first time. After you churn ice cream you will a medium to thick layer of ice cream welded to the interior of the drum. DO NOT scrape it out with metal utensils. I just cover mine with a paper towel and after about 15-20 minutes I scrape the sides with a soft pliable spatula. Do not scratch the interior, it will cause problems later. Also do not put the drum back into the freezer until it thaws completely out. After waiting the 15-20 and scrapping the inside, I take my drum to the sink and spray it out with warm water, being careful not to submerge it or scratch it. I dry it out with a paper towel and sit it on my counter in the upright position to finish thawing out. Then I wipe off the excess condensation from the inside and outside and put it back in the freezer in the upright position.

Review: it is built well and functions as expected, plus I mean the colour, who doesn't love hot pink. If this one ever breaks I would happily purchase again. We even use the frozen base to store drinks in for events by freezing it and filling it with ice because it stays cool for so long.

Review: Soooooo CUTE! This makes way too much icecream for just myself and my daughter but we are newbies to the artisanal icecream world. We assembled the freezing cold inner tube thing with the lid and the churned, Pulled a can of coconut milk from the fridge and shook it up, added a splash of vanilla, a pinch of salt and some maple syrip, and 10 minutes later we had delicious homemade icecream. Honestly this is a dream - Iâm looking forward to trying new recipes and having a healthier special treat while making memories with my LO.In terms of cleaning since there are only 4 parts to the whole unit itâs quite simple. I was able to rinse and wash the paddle immediately and let the inner tube soak, but in hindsight I could have boiled water to just get it over with lol. Anyway itâs a nice treat and I will consider getting an official âspare icecreamâ tub rather than our empty Yogurt container ð
