 Ice cream ball February 25, 2008
2 out of 2 found this review helpful
The ice cream was great! Now for the down side of it...
The seal on the side the cylinder opened to would leak during use, it took what seemed forever to make the ice cream (thirty minutes for the mega size; if you have dogs that like to chase things that might make it more enjoyable between two people), and it took lots of ice. It would be good for someone to do at home, however, not my idea of a good item to take camping unless you're in a motorhome with an ice maker and space to store it...would be good for kids if you could come up with different ways of moving the ball around besides throwing/tossing it.

I received the pint-size version for Christmas. I forgot about it until I woke up craving ice cream. Now I can't get enough. The ingredients are simple and there's no hand-cranking as was the case when I was a kid. Just roll it back and forth while having a pleasant conversation. This size is just perfect for two people. I've read other reviews and must say that ours does not leak. Also, the spiderweb design on the outside is what keeps the surface comfortable to touch. Yes, the lids get tight, which is why the manufacturers included a handy tool to remove them. This rates a four out of five because the sides do get difficult to scrape down and we're advised to not use metal objects. I scrape as much as I can with a wooden spoon, then empty all the ice out and let it sit for ten minutes. At that point, the same wooden spoon handily gets the rest. We made mint chocolate chip tonight and were very happy with it. I'm already thinking of new recipes.
Great Fun Indoors or Out! February 11, 2008
I bought this as a gift for my family and we enjoyed rolling it around the living room in December. The dog loved chasing it as much as we loved eating the ice cream. It makes enough ice cream for our family of eight to have sundaes.
 Lots of fun! February 5, 2008
I bought this for my sister's family-- mostly to keep her two children occupied! and it totally worked. The kids think of it as a game, and the face that you get ice cream in the end makes it lots of fun for them. Great for 5-10 year olds, or any body with tons of energy. and it works!
Fun, but takes a while January 19, 2008
We have had fun making ice cream, but it takes about 30 minutes of rolling the ball around before you are done. After 15 minutes you have to stop, open the ball and scrap the frozen parts from the sides (not as easy as you think!). In the end, the ice cream was good and we had fun!. The best part is you can use ingredients that you typically have on hand.
