Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of Cuisinart ICE-25BC Classic Frozen-Yogurt, Ice-Cream, and Sorbet Maker, Brushed ChromeCustomer Review: Great low-priced ice cream maker Summary: 4 Stars
When you buy this, you are buying a low-priced ice cream maker and it will have all the advantages and disadvantages of a low-priced ice cream maker.
First, the bad: Even though it says 1.5 quart, after you scrape the sides, the big stirrer, and the lid, you will be LUCKY to recover a quart of ice cream. I cannot imagine how little ice cream you would get from a smaller unit. When you stop the machine and get your ice cream, it will be the consistency of soft-serve. For those who like a more ice cream consistency, you will need to put it in the freezer for several hours, to overnight, but eventually you will get the hardness that you expect ice cream to have. I have read a lot of negative reviews about the consistency, but trust me...it can be compensated for. The only other gripe I have is that the stirring paddles are not rubber coated and do not press tightly against the bowl, allowing the ice cream to prematurely freeze to the sides. This becomes a much bigger problem when you start trying to make lower fat ice cream as the freezing point of the mixture will go up with less fat. This may not make sense to anyone that has never made ice cream, but you will soon figure out what I'm saying if you try it.
Now to the good: Its cheap, has a small footprint, doesn't require ice and salt, isn't as loud as everyone says, and makes pretty darn good ice cream once you get the hang of it.
If you buy this, you will soon be making ice cream that will make the store bought stuff taste like garbage, and probably a lot less sugar and fat and much less money.
