I've had my ice cream attachment for two years now, and it makes good ice cream. The result is a little soft, more like soft serve than hard ice cream when it's made, but it hardens up in the freezer -- *and* I use a no-cook, minimum-ingredient recipe due to allergies (milk, heavy cream, vanilla, sugar). It can be used every 24 hours or so if it goes right back into the freezer after it's used and cleaned, so it can make some very happy ice cream lovers. We use this to make ice cream all year long.
