This is a great machine!I've been using for two years now and it is dependable and produces consistent results every time. I make a couple of quarts of ice cream every month. I've used different flavours for each batch without issues. This thing is bulletproof as far as I'm concerned. If you like ice cream and care about your own nutrition, buy this ASAP.

Kept the machine on the whole night. The milk was slightly cold when I woke up. Not good product.

Easy to use, fairly easy to clean, decent instructions for use.What I liked most was that I could make several batches in a row, without having to refreeze the bowl, thanks to the built-in freezing function.Not super quiet but not terribly loud either - I'd say it was OK as far as noise goes.Just what I needed, a way to consume even more calories in a day! But it's worth it for delicious homemade ice cream, just how you like it!

This ice cream maker is really good. It is easy to use! Put your mix in the maker, close the lid and set the timer! The grands were soooo excited to be able to make batch after batch without having to stop and freeze container! Good value for the money, not too noisy. The only draw back is the container is small, it says a quart but it seems smaller.

Very easy to assemble and use, and it works. I started with a warm mix and had gelato firm enough to eat in under 40 minutes. It's a nice slow churn so it works really well for gelato I think.Designed for easy cleaning. The paddle connects semi-loosely to the lid/motor assembly -- that's a feature, not a bug. If you take the lid off to check the ice cream after it's firmed, the paddle will disconnect but that is better than stressing or breaking something. Just fit the hole back over the paddle and reconnect the lid carefully.Obviously this machine is not designed for industrial use, so use it with care and common sense. When the mix gets stiff and the motor is working hard, it should turn off automatically but you can turn it off early and you can serve something soft, or put it in the freezer and firm it up (or put it into popsicle molds which works great)

The machine didn't work once. It doesn't cool. The blades move, but It doesn't cool. I think It may have suffered some damage during transportation. Please, How can I get my money back? Thank tou.

I’ve used the ice cream maker 5 or 6 times. It works great and makes enough for 3-4 people in one patch. I make the base ice cream and add the extras and freeze over night. I use heavy whipping cream, whole milk, sweetened condensed milk in equal portions and a teaspoon of vanilla. I’ve added berries, chocolate, nuts, and pie filling. I mix the base in a blender and then put into the ice cream maker pot. It’s ready in about an hour. You can eat it right then but it melts pretty fast. You can put it on the setting to keep cold. But it’s best if you can freeze it over night. The sweetened condensed milk keeps it from freezing solid and gives it that ice cream thickness and texture. The machine has a mild noise level.

Luckily, it’s fairly simple to operate. Easy to clean. It’s also fairly quiet, and seems to be very sturdy, I wish I could leave it on my counter, as it’s a bit heavy for me to schlep around at my age, but it’s doable. I like not having to put tubs in the freezer, or keep them in there, and to have the ability to make ice cream on demand. Depending upon where you read, this has 1-qt, 0.9-qt, or 0.8-qt capacity and they recommend not filling it past the maximum fill line. There’s a minimum fill line as well. I’d recommend filling it midway between the lines. I went to the maximum fill line with the first half of my buttermilk base and had to add just a bit of half and half as the rest of the base was not quite up to the minimum fill line. It’s easy to do two consecutive batches, or put the unchurned base in the fridge and churning it the next day, and you could vary the second half with mix-ins, different mix-ins, or flavorings. Not a bad thing at all. I was extremely pleased with the smooth and creamy Buttermilk Ice Cream I made. It even surpassed my Cuisinart Ice Cream Maker. I have wanted a compressor-style ice cream machine for years, but couldn’t justify spending that much money. This Cowsar is reasonably-priced, and I saved more buying it during a flash sale. It’s a good size for me, and the ice cream is superior. I have had ice cream from hand-cranked freezers, electric models that need ice cubes and salt, or have tubs that need to be pre-frozen, and this is the easiest and best ice cream with a lot less cleanup. I highly recommend it. My worst con is that the instructions will leave you confused and make your head spin.Additional Notes: Swap the word “Single” in the instructions for “Only” and it will be clear that “Single Stirring,” and “Single Refrigeration” modes mean that these stir without refrigeration, and refrigerate without stirring. The only mode that stirs and refrigerates is the ice cream mode. It’s a money-saver. I was near an ice cream shop yesterday and wasn’t even tempted. I kind of wished after the fact, that I had checked the prices. I didn’t. I am sure I would have felt faint. I just waited to get home to my homemade coconut ice cream.
