I only used my ice cream maker 5-10 times before it leaked blue fluid all over my freezer and food in  my freezer. There are no visible cracks or damages so I can't even tell where it is coming from. This seems to be a common issues and there is complaint after complaint of other ice cream makers leaking fluid after only a few uses. When I emailed customer service they only offered me 20% off of a new one. I don't think this is fair considering this is a manufacturer problem that many people are having. This is not the quality or customer service I expect from KitchenAid and I will be purchasing a different brand of ice cream maker to replace this one.
