Chef'n5255870 Sweet Spot Ice Cream Maker, Stainless Steel, Blue Glow

As warm weather is approaching, I was looking for something to surprise my grandchildren with and ice cream is always nice on warm days, so I started looking for some options which I might be able to get which would allow for us to use with them helping us actually make the ice cream, and I stumbled across this item. I read some reviews, and watched the video, so I took the plunge and ordered it.Naturally, my wife and I decided we needed to try it out when it arrived, so we didn’t disappoint the grandkids if it didn’t work, so, reluctantly, after it arrived, it was cleaned, and placed in the freezer for a day. When it was ready to use, we prepared the ice cream mixture, and had some candy items we wanted to mix in, just to make sure that also worked okay in the process, and began.Our first attempt was a bit sloppy as we poured the entire amount onto the surface at once, rather than following the instructions and only pouring the remainder after the first round was completed, so the completion of the ice cream to longer than expected. However, the end result was great, and we had enough left over to put in the freezer after we each had a small bowl.The concept is very much like Cold Stone if you’ve ever been there - pour and scrape as the mixture freezes until you get the consistency you desire, and then mix in the extras. This works as advertised, and my wife and I decided to order some for presents to give away to others, which I believe is the highest recommendation I could make.

Does as it says , but smaller then expected .

Love this so much! Took no time at all learning to make ice cream on this. I keep ice cream mix in my fridge so all I had to do was pour about 5 oz of the mix on the frozen pan and use the paddles to roll up a delicious treat. Took about 7 minutes. So easy!

Very high quality product. I have a few different brands and this is by far the best of them.

This worked perfectly as soon as we took it out of the freezer. However, the next rolls we made would not roll properly. We plan to make one batch, put back in freezer, then make the next oneThe recipe book that came with the maker has a great vanilla recipe! Delicious! Overall, we are happy with the product. Very fun for the kids!
