Title: Get something else
Product review: I've made home made ice cream for years in my Donvier hand crank ice cream maker. I decided several years ago that I wanted to try an electric one. I've tried the Rival several times over the last few years, but with no luck. The ice cream just doesn't freeze. This weekend I tried an experiment. I froze the buckets to both ice cream makers. I made a 2 quart batch of strawberry ice cream. I poured 1/2 the mixture into each bucket and then froze them side by side. This next part makes absolutely no sense to me, but this is what happened. The Rival ice cream never thickened to anything more than a slightly thick custard base. The stuff in the Donvier froze to the consistency of slightly less than a soft serve. So, after putting the stuff from the Donvier into the freezer, we had a fairly creamy ice cream. We put the stuff in the Rival in the freezer and it froze, but had a lot of ice crystals. Not nearly as creamy. Go figure.
