The Ice cream maker works great. The recipes that come with it are very tastey. The only downfall is the base needs to freeze for atleast 12 hours before making any icecream.

Can't agree with threemoons' review enough. After freezing the bowl for two days, then letting the mixer run until it stopped itself to keep from overheating (approx 1 hour), I didn't have ice cream. Put the whole thing in the freezer again with the ice cream mixture in it. Two hours later, some thickening. Started the mixer again... another hour and forty-five minutes... still no ice cream. Froze results overnight, and then had decent ice cream. Next, I will get the large wooden bucket with electric motor, just like my grandmother had during my childhood. I know it works.

If I could give this zero stars I would.
I bought this ice cream maker at my Local NEX for my husbands birthday. We brought it home all excited to have some ice cream. We got everything ready and followed the directions in the book. The paddle wouldn't even spin in a circle and after 1 minute the machine over heated and shut off. Needless to say, we got NO ice cream and my family was very let down.
I took this product back to the store and will now invest a little more money in a better ice cream maker.
