Amazing piece of kit – makes the finest ice cream you’ll ever eat, with minimal effort and you don’t have to keep waiting 12 hours for a bowl to freeze! Believe me, once you’ve had this ice cream, you’ll never want to touch any commercial variety again (not to mention goodness knows what additives.)This is a heavy chunky machine that you probably won’t want to keep dragging in and out of a cupboard (and it really shouldn’t be moved around anyway) so you ideally need permanent space on your worktop. I’ve sat mine on one of those black oven liners so I can easily slide it aside when I want to clean the granite worktop underneath etc.When the machine arrived, I left it to settle for 24 hours before using it. Next day I made a batch of strawberry gelato and blackberry/mango gelato, using the gelato paddle – pic attached shows the strawberry. The results were out of this world – smooth, creamy and full of fruit. I used one of the online recipes from the excellent ‘Ask Chef Dennis’ website using fresh strawberries, half full-fat milk/half double cream, lemon juice and granulated sugar (I used less sugar than the recipe called for, as the fruit was quite sweet.) And that was it. No messing about with egg yolks and making custards. You can substitute virtually any fruit.I don’t find this machine excessively noisy at all – it’s a lot quieter than even most kettles and you can easily talk over it.Some people have also marked this machine down because they say the ice cream is hard to remove from the paddle but I had no problem with that at all – I just used two small silicone spatulas. TIP: get a teaspoon ready to just eat the residue left on the paddle – it’s too good to waste! Getting the lid in place can be a bit of a knack but once you’ve got it, it’s very easy – just make sure the small lock icons line up on the lid and the machine.The handbook is very clear and well-written. It’s got a small but good selection of basic recipes but I find the (free) ‘Ask Chef Dennis’ recipes much less of a faff to prepare and give great results.Although the handbook states that 1 litre is the total maximum quantity you should make at a time, I’d actually recommend using slightly less because as the mixture freezes, it expands massively and depending on what you’re making and how long your chosen cycle is, it rises right to the very top of the bowl.If your paddle squeaks as it goes round when the mixture starts thickening, a tiny drop of cooking oil or butter on the top part of the paddle spindle where it touches the lid should stop it. You’ll probably have to re-apply the oil every time though because it will come off when you wash the paddle.All in all, although this is a relatively expensive machine, it’s solidly built and imo worth every penny. My only regret is not buying one much sooner.

No warning. How annoying ! Doesn’t say in description.
