Expensive, but more than worth it November 23, 2009

Got the machine last week. The first time I used it I made two batches and then last night made 6. The machine freezes very fast, twenty minutes seems typical. Some small batches with the bowl pre-chilled around 10. Made a batch of frozen daiquiri, which took a bit longer. I am very happy with the time to freeze.
Also the ice cream and sorbets are very smooth. With recipies as simple as blended fruit and a little syrup (Raw Agave) the ice crystals are very fine and the texture smoother than many other sorbets I have made. The machine has enough torque to freeze these very solid, which greatly helps with keeping them spoonable after storing overnight in the freezer.
As for the cleaning some people have complained that the unit is tough to clean because the bowl is not removable. I have not had any problems and can clean it in a couple of minutes. It is easiest if you let it warm up for five or ten minutes before hand but a wet kitchen towel (warm) or some papertowels wipe it clean in two or three passes. The integrated bowl has no seams or crevices so it wipes out easily. As an engineer this really seems like a superior design even if it is not something that can be thrown into the dishwasher. The only trick to cleaning is to use a larger towel that doesn't need rinsed as often as a sponge, which was a bit tedious. I have had no problem turning it around for a second batch in less than five minutes.
The only problem I had was the first unit I received would not cool. I suspect it was shipping related and Amazon returns had a new unit on my doorstep within 48 hours and offered to reimburse for the return shipping on the defective unit. While somewhat annoying as I was excited about trying the new unit out, I was very pleased with the hassle free experience dealing with Amazon customer service / returns.
In summary the machine is expensive, but if you want or need a fast, high-end machine that produces excellent ice cream and sorbets then don't hesitate. This machine is solid. Everyone who has come over to help try it out is amazed by the speed, low level of noise and the quality of the end result.

Product is a fast, effective way of cranking out a lot of ice cream. My issue was one of time (lack of) so I wanted a product that could quickly accomplish this while entertaining, etc.
Pro: Gets ice cream and sorbet's on your plate in 20 mins. Up to 6 quarts an hour.
Cons: Big unit and the bowl is non-removable so clean up is a mild pain.
Conclusion, if you love ice cream and have some extra money, it's a good buy.

I teach Culinary Arts to high school students and my students love this machine. It's a basic commercial ice cream maker that comes with an easy to read instruction manual and recipes. Follow the instructions and you have a great quality product.
I LOVE THIS MACHINE!!! February 4, 2010

I use this machine to churn out about 40 quarts a week and love it. I'm saving for the bigger model. I churn ice cream for 20 minutes and then freeze - great texture and flavor. Biggest secret is adding 1-3 tablespoons of alcohol to soften your ice cream. ; ) Only complaint is that the screw on the paddle sometimes gets stuck and is difficult to remove without some serious muscle. Otherwise its great! Hope this helps!
And Go Saints!!!
very happy! November 28, 2009

we are using this in a restaurant, and got it to replace a home machine given to us. The home machine was getting really tired! This makes ice cream and sorbet with a good consistency. It is very quiet - which is a problem in our restaurant because we don't hear it when it finishes. But that is a problem we can live with, compared to the extreme noisiness of our previous machine.
