What's great about it: Makes great ice cream, looks nice
What's not so great: nothing yet...
I researched the you-know-what out of ice cream makers for my husband and this one had the best reviews, so I bought it and I am incredibly happy with it!! We made frozen yogurt from the recipe book included with the machine and the texture was perfect, the taste was awesome and it couldnt have been easier. Per the reviews here and on amazon, we froze the bowl for over 24 hours, used the coldest ingredients we could, froze our glass mixing bowl for about 20 minutes before using it and waited until the last possible minute to remove the machines bowl from the freezer. The end result was frozen yogurt that was so cold that we left it on the counter for over an hour and it was still frozen to the sides of the machines bowl! It was super creamy and delicious!!!!!!

What's great about it: I don't know
What's not so great: does not produce "hard" ice cream fast
I am disappointed with this ice cream maker. I may have been expecting "scoopable" ice cream, not soft serve, in a few hours, but you can't even get that! I followed the directions for "simple vanilla ice cream", in the recipe book. It turned out like thick vanilla soup from the machine. Even after freezing it overnight, it was still like gross Ice milk. I tried the better recipe (cooking the ingredients first) and then processing. It still was not the spectacular homemade ice cream I was expecting. I paid $7.00 for ONE vanilla bean let alone the other ingredients and came out with not even two quarts of ice cream crystal-like and not smooth and creamy form! For all the money I spent on ingredients, it was not worth it. Very disappointing. I am not against the Cuisinart brand, I was just not expecting to have to cook ingredients first, refrigerate overnight, process in the ice cream maker and then freeze for at least three hours before enjoying. Too much of an expense and hassle for something I could easily go buy in the store for no more than $4.00
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

What's great about it: Everything
What's not so great: You always have to keep the bowl in the freezer
This makes a great ice cream and sorbets very quickly. I wish that it had a complete cover on the top, I like to keep it outside when I am making ice cream. I just put a small plate on top and it works just fine. The recipe book that it comes with has great recipe ideas.
I would recommend this to a friend!

What's not so great: nothing
Wonderful addition to my mother's kitchen! I wanted to get my Mom a special gift for Christmas this past year and I decided that this ice cream maker might be a fun idea because she is always having people over to the house.
It turned out to be a wonderful purchase. The name cuisinart has always been associated with great products and this little guy is no exception. My mom actually just used it last weekend and the ice cream turned out great! It was the perfect texture, nice and cold, very flavorful. The clean up is not difficult at all and doesn't take forever to do. I now look forward to homemade ice cream!

What's great about it: Makes delicious, smooth ice cream. Great recipes
What's not so great: you have to make sure you keep the bowl in the freezer
this is a great ice cream maker for it's price. Without a compressor, you need to keep the bowl in the freezer to do it's job, but it's worth saving the $200 or so to get a machine that does the job itself. Comes with a recipe book to make a wide variety of treats. Very easy to use!
I would recommend this to a friend!
