I bought this for my husband- he loves ice cream! We have had this since March and continue to get great & reliable results! So easy to use and it's not too noisy like some others are. The consistency of the ice cream is smooth & creamy. We usually do add ins after it has finished and we mix in when putting it in containers, since the amount it makes, if following the recipe book, is to the top of the insert.
We love it & use it regularly!
