This didn't produce ice cream like we expected, but now are pleased with it.It is more of a novelty and nothing you would use to produce serious ice cream. That said, our grandkids enjoy it and we are pleased with it.
The two things you need to do to make it work well are freeze the bowl well and be sure ingredients are cold.
We keep our bowl in the freezer so it's always frozen solid and ready. If you only fill the bowl and inch below the top of the beater, it won't expand over the top when it freezes. Also, be sure the handle is up (closed) all the way when you start or after dispensing or you'll have a mess. The side dispensers didn't work well for us, but I didn't care for them anyway. It works well for us and usually takes about 20-30 minutes. It takes a bit of learning to get the ice cream to come out right, but we mostly just dispense it in cups.
We've never had ours stop turning, even though the ice cream gets too thick to dispense. We just take the beater out and dip it out with a spoon.
The beater has hard areas to scrape the ice cream off of because of the shape. There are two outside stir arms and and inside screw that make up the beater.
I found it was fairly simple to clean.
Overall, if you are interested in fancy swirl ice cream cones, this probably may not be your machine. However, if you just want to make soft ice cream it works fine.
