Easy to use and perfect size for one person. I haven’t done anything complicated in it, but works for a quick treat. I like being able to control the ingredients and have had no problem with the machine.

This is a handy little ice cream maker. Honestly, I only used it once, so far, because I don’t have the patience for it, but it worked well when I used it.

I finally got around to giving this little gadget a try. I had the bowls in the freezer for several weeks and got tired of digging around them, so I decided to make some orange sherbet. When I first started it up, it didn’t look or sound like it would really do much . It ran for a while not sounding any different and still looking quite runny, but then – suddenly – it started sounding like it was working a little harder every minute. And, finally, voila… it went from liquid to more of a solid form right before my eyes. It never got super solid, but it did firm up quite a bit.
It was a little tricky pouring liquid into the tiny little chute while it was running. Some went down the sides a bit.
Overall, though, it was easy to use and easy to clean up. If you freeze more than one bowl, they do take up a lot of precious freezer space. The paddle feels a little flimsy, but seemed to do the job.
The first one I received had a leaky bowl, but Amazon replaced it immediately and the second set arrived in perfect condition.
I’m looking forward to making actual ice cream instead of sherbet. You can’t beat a good homemade vanilla ice cream!

We have allergies over here, my husband to dairy and I to soy, so we thought having one of those would be a helpful addition to our family needs. We also are mindful about our sugar intake.
I made an ice cream with kefir yogurt and chocolate chips. It was like a soft serve and satisfying but not ice cream solid.
My daughter made a matcha ice cream with skyr yogurt, a little milk, sugar, matcha powder and chocolate chips. It was a little more solid on the yogurt part but there was still some liquid after 15min. She was eventually happy with the consistency and stopped it.
Like others have mentioned, the bowls do take a huge space but that space used to be for a Zoku.
Comparatively, it performs about the same as the Zoku for a soft serve scoop. The real bonus here is the motor that does the hard work.
I feel the hype is a little higher than the reality but it will probably be well loved over here.

Not easy to use

Lots of family fun to be had here! Can create and make so many different flavours. Great way to reduce sugar too. My only complaint is that you can’t make much at one time without overflowing.

Teenage daughters loved it….. so did their dad 🙂 Easy to use, works well.

I read the reviews, and thought perhaps the remark that this does not freeze was written by people unfamiliar with the fact that no ice cream maker actually freezes the custard to ice cream consistency. I was wrong.
Ideally, a ice cream maker will create a loose mixture of aerated ice crystals that must be finished off in a freezer to become the right creamy consistency. This machine, by contrast, makes cold soup. When the soup is placed in the freezer to finish off, it turns into a cream-flavored ice cube — rock hard and impossible to spoon.
I have a larger ice cream freezer by another manufacturer with the exact same type of bowls, a canister filled with some sort of liquid that you put in the freezer ahead of time, so I know what should happen. I think perhaps these cup-sized bowls are too small to hold enough of the freezing medium actually to make ice crystals in the contents. In addition to the failure to freeze the custard, the paddle motor is underpowered and does not aerate the contents, either.
The result is an utter waste of money. Get the larger machine and make smaller batches for portion control.

I like to make homemade soymilk with dates so I got the idea one day to put the liquid in this dash ice cream maker. One of the other reviewers recommended putting the dash ice cream maker in a deep freezer for longer periods of time than the dash instructions suggest so I did that. Soymilk tends to be a bit gritty depending on how little you filter it but with the dash ice cream maker (and putting the bowls in the deep freezer) I put barely filtered soymilk into the bowls with sole vanilla extract (for flavor) and made really delicious ice cream. It tasted better than store bought soymilk and because of the icey ice cream texture, the grittiness that usually accompanies unfiltered/barely filtered soymilk wasn’t an issue. It just felt like ice cream or rather a non-dairy frozen dessert. I’ll definitely make it again and try adding some toppings. Also with the deep freezer method-I think I left the bowls in the deep freezer for 2 days before I actually got around to using them-the bowls were still cold after making the ice cream (20 min wait) so I probably could have made a second batch of ice cream in the same bowl. I’ve used the dash ice cream maker a few times now and can honestly say it’s cut down on our trips to the store for ice cream during this hot summer.

Super fun way to entertain friends! Easy to use. I had my own frozen yogurt recipe & it turned out great.
