Lello 4080 Musso Lussino 1.5-Quart Ice Cream Maker, Stainless
Fully automatic and precisely controlled by a timer, this  machine takes the trouble and guesswork out of making ice cream,  sorbet, frozen yogurt, gelato, and frozen drinks at home. Ingredients  go into the bowl, the timer is set, two buttons are pressed and about  30 minutes later 1-1/2 quarts of a frozen confection are ready for  consumption. Because the machine doesn't require its bowl to be frozen  for hours in a refrigerator's freezer (like less expensive machines  that only churn), it can immediately begin making another batch. If a  batch becomes too hard the machine shuts off automatically. Not only  does it work professionally it looks the part, as the housing, bowl,  and paddle are made of stainless steel for sanitation and easy  cleaning. The 100-watt machine measures 12 inches wide, 11 inches high,  and 18 inches deep, and it weighs 38 pounds. Made it Italy, it carries  a one-year warranty against defects. An instruction booklet with many  recipes is included.--Fred Brack
