Rival 6-Qt. Electric Ice Cream Freezer
I will be returning this ice cream freezer within the week. I have made ice cream with it 3 times and yesterday when I tried to make it again the motor was making a terrible noise. I had previously returned another one of this same freezer due to problems with the motor. I do not recommend it. My first White Mountain lasted for years but I do not think it was made by Rival. I've had nothing but problems with the Rival White Mountain electric ice cream freezer.

Leaky Bucket
This is the classic ice cream freezer and we've been using one for over 40 years (many replacements, of course). The secret to the leaky bucket is to keep the wood swollen. Can't happen in our DRY homes and basements. So, take it from my wife's uncle (now 80+ yrs old) the cure is fiberglass. Just get a kit from the auto supply store that you use to fix auto bodies. Follow the directions, spreading the cloth all over the inside of the wooden bucket. It'll make your wood last lots longer and NO MORE LEAKS!!

Rust Rust Rust
I am very disappointed in this white mountain electric 6 quart ice cream maker. If the can and dasher are truly stainless steel, why is it continually rusting. Rust on the dasher, inside the bottom of the can, and also on the spindle at the bottom of the bucket. Who wants to eat rust or take a chance on feeding their family rust? Been making ice cream for more than 50 years. Could not find a customer service number for the company to ask questions. Will buy a different make and eat $200. ???? It beats having blood poisoning!
