After years of a handcrank ice cream maker, followed by several large bucket electric models i decided to buy this product as it seemed easy to use and a lot less hassle. Completely spot on. The machine came as advertised and I bought an additional replacement bowl in case we wanted 4 quarts instead of just 2 although 2 is plenty.
First of all, this machine has very few working parts and is easy to put together and use. It's not overly large and can easily fit in a pantry as the bowl, lid etc. all fit together so no need to store separately. It sits easilly on the kitchen counter and is sturdy. the machine didn't move or creep which is something i was concerned about in buying this. It stayed right in one spot.
I used a family recipe for the ice cream base, but the booklet that comes with the product has a lot of recipes in it and they look great. I'm going to try them. As for my batch, it came out perfect. I did freeze the bowl for almost 24 hours before starting the machine and I also started with very cold ice cream base. The bowl remained very cold throughout and even took almost the entire day to come back to room temp after the process was done and the ice cream was put in a container in the freezer.
For those that are having issues with ice cream spilling over, whenever you make ice cream you have to leave room in the container for expansion. I left about an inch and a half or so from the top. This worked out perfect. I pressed the ice cream setting and away it went, added my fruit when there was about 5 minutes left (don't add it too early or the fruit will settle to the bottom.) By the time it had finished the ice cream had reached the top of the bowl but had not spread into the housing at all.
The ice cream came out soft serve. It hardened up a bit after sitting overnight in the freezer. It's still not quite as hard as it would have been had I used the old fashioned bucket container with rocksalt and ice but it's firm enough and not soupy or soft serve. The texture is creamy and consistent through the whole batch.
Cleanup is a snap seriously. You just rinse out the bowl, the lid and paddle and you're done.
It is a bit noisy but all ice cream makers are. In my opinion this isn't a negative as it's common. The timer feature is nice, it counts down for you and has settings for gelato and sorbet as well.
Overall great product. highly recommended.

You won’t regret this!
I’ve made homemade ice cream, Italian Ice, and gelato in a month of buying this ice cream maker. It’s amazing and we enjoy having clean ingredient frozen sweet treats. The 2qt size is perfect for a family. So far I’ve made vanilla, mint chocolate chip, chocolate covered toasted coconut, salted caramel gelato, Italian lemon ice, and strawberry Italian ice. Tastes the best same day after being in the freezer for a few hours. It’s quiet enough, and easy to clean. Be sure to give the container at least 36 hrs to freeze inbetween batches. Enjoy!

This is a longer review than I usually leave because I struggled with this machine early on and significantly benefitted from tips that others left. I almost returned it several times but am happy I kept trying and I am now the "ice cream queen" with friends and grandkids. Here is what I learned.
1) Freezer must be at zero degrees to properly freeze the bowl. Mine wasn't and I didn't know it but have had it fixed.
2) Freezer bowl needs to be in freezer for at least 24 hours, preferable 48. If you hear noise when you shake the freezer bowl, it's not ready. I bought 2 extra bowls and keep 2 in my freezer at all times, with the third on reserve and I rotate them when used. That way, I can make 2 batches back to back for large crowds.
3) Freezer bowl needs to be dry when put in freezer. See above.
4) Recipes don't need to be complicated. I like the ice cream base for the butter pecan ice cream with slight modification. 1 1/4 milk, whisk with 3/4 cups sweetener, add 2 1/2 cups cream and 2 tsp vanilla, punch of salt. Put into machine for standard 25 minutes. At 20 minutes, add your extras. See below.
5) So far, butter pecan is our favorite. I make up several cups of pecans at a time and keep them in the fridge for when we need a cup per batch.
6) We also like chocolate with Ghirardelli Cocoa and mint chocolate chip with 2 tsp peppermint and a cup of mini chocolate chips.
7) We don't eat sugar but use Swerve granular instead. We use Lily's chocolate chips. They don't come in mini but I put them in my chopper for a bit to breaj them up. IMHO, big chips are not as good.
8) Ice cream will be Soft Serve consistency when it comes out of machine when done properly and is edible at that time. We like it better in the freezer for an hour or two. But, it can get too hard. If it has been frozen for a day or 2, think about taking it out of freezer to refrigerator or even room temp for an hour or so before eating.
I bought some ice cream containers to keep my ice cream and like the colored lids to help me identify different types.
9) Like most things, practice makes perfect and, now that I know what I am doing, I love it and so does my family. I can make fresh, sugar free, delicious ice cream with minimal effort. It's worth it!
