Best ice cream maker for the money
After Reseaching many ice cream makers,I found all the ones under a hundred bucks either leaked,broke or had weak motors that would not do the job. This Unit makes the perfect amount of icecream at 4 qts since homemade icecream has a shelf life of about 2 weeks. It works well and it was the cheapest! What more can you ask for,cheaper really is better
about the only thing I did not like was the Chocolate recipe so search the
net for more ice cream recipes

Mediocre Ice cream Maker
I bought this ice cream maker because it was inexpensive and made 4-quart batches. But from my experience, this ice cream maker has an under-powered motor. When the ice cream is thick enough to stop the motor from spinning, the contents of the container are still a little drippy, and after the ice cream freezes, it is gritty with little ice-particles instead of turning out smooth. I have made three batches, and at first I thought I wasn't cooking the mix enough, so last time I added an extra egg and made it thicker. It didn't make a difference. I am using recipes from the Ben & Jerry's book, and following the cooking directions that came with the maker (I don't know why, but there are no cooking directions in the Ben & Jerry's book--I made my first batch raw).
I think with a more powerful motor, it would spin longer while the mixture freezes for a creamier texture. The bottom line is that I think the motor is too weak to make good ice cream.

Very good machine for the price
This Ice cream maker is a very good machine for the price. What I like
about it is 4 quart and it is very simple to use. I would buy it again.
