5.0 out of 5 stars Superb machine...superb ice-cream 29 Dec 2009
By Dancingelephant
Three words for this. Fantastic fantastic fantastic! Very easy to assemble and use. Makes up to TWO x 1 litres of ice-cream in less than half an hour. Very useful having two freezer bowls as means you can always keep one in the freezer and make ice-cream on a whim. The smaller machine (ICE30) only has one bowl which means you can only make ice-cream in a 24-hour period as you have to refreeze the bowl for 24 hours before making another one. If you're in two minds about whether to get the ICE30 or ICE40 model I strongly suggest you get ICE40 as you won't regret it! Hubby and I tried my first ever homemade ice-cream with this model using a Ben and Jerry's recipe - French Vanilla - and it tasted divine and creamy. Can't wait to make more!

5.0 out of 5 stars Wonderful ice cream 9 Mar 2010
By C. Royle
Fabulous machine. Very easy to assemble, easy to use, easy to clean. Operation is pretty quiet. Makes the most delicious soft ice cream in less than 30 minutes, with just natural ingredients; you know exactly what's in it. The children keep asking for more. The bowls don't take up too much room in the freezer, and having two is great because you can make 2 litres at the same time or make consecutive batches. Worth every penny, and I'm delighted with it.

5.0 out of 5 stars I'm always honest, and YES, this is brilliant. 12 Nov 2011
By C. Bowley

I hope you read my 100% honest review, and i hope that it is useful to you...
I never buy any rubbish, it's just not in my nature.
You pay for what you get.
Me and my girlfriend wanted to buy an ice cream maker, we really wanted the ICE50BCU (which to be fair, i'm sure will be better and alot easier to use than the ICE40BCU), BUT it is around £200 - nearly three times more.
Anyway, we went for the ICE40BCU, as we weren't prepared to shell out that much money for our first purchase of an ice cream maker.
I have had ice cream in lots of different countries, and i am a big fan of Ben and Jerrys ice cream and Haagen Dazs ice cream too.
I have only used this machine once so far, and i started with the simplest one (vanilla), and then added 95g of maltesers to it five mins from the end...
Only the ice cream that i have had in Italy is better than the first batch i made (but i'm talking about a tiny bit better, that's it), and i reckon i can add other things to make my ice cream as good as theirs, it's all about making it with care and love - the same as any task you do.
I am truely amazed by how brilliant the ice cream looks and tastes, it's easily in Ben and Jerrys league if not better - and that's coming from someone who has had alot of different flavours from the Ben and Jerrys range - so in my opinion, it seems to be worth every penny.
I have seen people moaning about it being too runny when done after 20-25 mins - that isn't true, it's similar to the "Mr Whippy" ice creams that you get from the ice cream man, but maybe a tiny bit stiffer in consistancy.
To sum up:-
Food that tastes superb usually take time to prepare, and there is nothing better than home-made food that has been made with love and care is there ?... Read more ›

5.0 out of 5 stars How Easy!! 29 Mar 2010
By C. Wilson
This really is ice cream made simple and delicious!! I will never eat store bought again! The machine is so very easy to assemble and use and produces fabulous results. It was delivered to me within 2 days of ordering. Only downside is that the recipe book that comes with it is extremely basic but there are hoards of really exciting recipes on the internet> Once you got the basic recipe and operation, the world is your oyster! I would recommend this also for single people as the dual bowls allows you to make smaller portions! fabulous machine!!

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent! 28 July 2010
By Sue SW
Being an ice cream lover I am completely happy with this product. So far I have only used the one bowl option, mainly because I'm still experimenting. I started with a basic recipe, just cream, milk, sugar and vanilla extract. The result was excellent. The machine itself obviously makes a noise but it's only for 20 minutes or so. I haven't made my own custard yet but have experimented with ready made chilled custards including chocolate custard. I've also made the basic recipe and added chopped maltesers. My next mission is to create a ripple ice cream with rasperry sauce. The ice cream from one bowl fits a 1 litre ice cream container perfectly. I've bought some long life double cream and cans of condensed milk so that I can make ice cream on the spur of the moment. I'd love to hear from someone who has made their own basic custard sauce and how it turns out. This will probably be the most used kitchen gadget I have ever bought! One thing - the ice cream melts very quickly once out of the freezer so not possible to take it to friends and family. In fact I'm thinking of buying a freezer box which works of the cigarette lighter in the car. I thoroughly recommend this ice cream maker. Simple to set up and use and it does the job perfectly. The two-bowl set up is an added bonus - either to make a double lot of the same ice cream or to make two different ones at the same time.

5.0 out of 5 stars So far so good 17 May 2010
By A. Elliott
Amazon Verified Purchase
Bought this a couple of days ago and have made 2 batches so far, strawberry and vanilla, both recipes came from the Ben & Jerry book. Ice cream tastes fabulous, especially the strawberry but how much of this is down to this machine I've no idea.

Machine is quieter than I was expecting, it's great that you can make two litres at once but I can't help wishing that I'd bought the professional one instead - not because there's anything wrong with this, I just like the idea of making ice cream on a whim without have to store or pre-freeze bowls.

Overall? 5 out of 5, looks nice, it's quiet in operation and gives you 2 litres of ice cream (alternative flavours if you wish) within 30 minutes, or 4 litres if you work fast and load the bowls back up after emptying.
