This is the first ice cream maker I've ever owned or used. It works great and the resulting ice cream has turned out fabulous.
The bowl freezes well and I've never had a problem with the ice cream never getting cold enough. The motor is very quiet so you can run the machine during dinner or when you have company. Clean up is a snap. There are no weird parts or super delicate pieces to worry about.
I've made ice cream several times. I've enjoyed recipes in the Williams Sonoma ice cream book, "How to Cook Everything" by Bittman and Gourmet's cookbook. One note: I have had to toss out a few attempts at making custard-style ice cream using eggs. I just needed to get the hang of it. I'm glad I hung in there until I got the recipe right because it's worth the effort!

This is also my first automatic ice cream freezer, and I am glad I chose this one. You do need to follow the directions and pre-freeze the container. In fact, after using, I immediately wash the freezer bowl, dry it well, and stick it back in the freezer so it is ready to go when I want to use it. I store any leftover ice cream in another container. That is, if I am lucky enough to have leftovers!
The unit is a snap to put together, use, and wash.It is reasonably quiet to use as well.
I found tons of recipes on the internet. So far, our favorite has been orange sherbet. Yes, it is cheaper to buy commericial and you do need to keep ingredients on hand and chilled, but well worth the effort!

I've made at least 6 different types of ice cream, sorbet and frozen yogurt since receiving this as a gift. Even though I've followed the directions carefully, chilled both the bowl and the mix as directed, the consistency of the end product tends to be a bit granular. I still haven't produced an ice cream with the smoothness that I was able to get from my old 1970s era Salton-put-it-in-the-freezer-while-it-mixes ice cream maker. I'll keep trying, but I'm disappointed. Plus, other than the metal lining for the freezer bowl, all the other pieces are plastic, so I have to wonder how long this thing will last.
