EIM402 Old Fashioned 4 Quart Vintage Wood Bucket Electric Ice Cream Maker Machine, Bonus Classic Die-Cast Hand Crank for Churning, Uses Ice and Rock Salt Churns Ice Cream in Minutes

Favorite Gift of eleven year old grandson! He has made multiple batches of ice cream all by himself! Delicious and easy to use. Be sure to buy rock salt with it. Not all stores carry rock salt.

Works great! Easy to use, quiet motor. Makes delicious ice cream. Made butter pecan from the recipe book included. Delicious! Will definitely try more recipes. Easy clean up.

This works well and I’ve made several batches of ice cream and no issues with the machine. I have also found several recipes online so you’re not limited to the book that comes with it. Is it a bit loud, yes but who cares. Eat the ice cream you just made and be happy. 😃

Purchased this product and it came in as listed. However, followed the instructions on it to seal the wooden base, did it multiple time, but it still had a leak. Put silicone in it and it worked for a time and to reapply. Other than that, the product works as stated in ads.

This really is a cool old fashioned ice cream maker. The bucket is large and it is easy to hook up and use the pieces. It has an old fashioned look to it and a hand crank that can be used, or the electric mixer. It is durable and fairly quiet. It is easy to clean and not too messy. It works well and is fun to use. It would also make a great gift.

I purchased the Elite Gourmet brand ice cream maker in August of 2022 and have only used it five times, four if count using the motor. After the second use, the nameplate fell off, and the metal around the bucket was already coming loose. That should have been a warning sign, but I gave it the benefit of the doubt since that was mostly cosmetic. By the fifth use, the motor stopped working. The power light came on, but the motor would not run. I had to churn the ice cream by hand, and then the handle broke off while doing that! I only make ice cream once or twice a summer, so this unit was barely used. My previous machine lasted 18 years — this one failed after just a few light uses across three summers. Also, It arrived in a plain brown box with no instructions. I knew how to use it, but the lack of basic documentation felt careless and cheap. I now see many reviews mentioning motor failure, and I can confirm: THEY ARE VALID!!! In summary, there is NOTHING “Elite” about this product! It is overpriced, poorly built, and completely unreliable. I regret not returning it sooner. Actually, I regret giving my money for this product. Save your money. Buy something else.

Unit works great motor is powerful enough to make good ice cream. Motor has a feature that it will shut off when ice cream gets too thick to turn. Also comes with a hand crank system so you can make ice cream by hand. Cleans real easy, a little bit noisy side but hey your not making ice cream indoors.

Super Nice setup

Great product

Muy buen producto 👍🏼

Gracias a esto ahora puedo hacer gelato y sorbete, quedan con una perfecta textura, y para los que dicen que s ele derrama el hielo en que se derrite es porque primero debe dejarse con agua dentro la cubeta para que la madera se expanda.

Always use whole milk ,and have on hand lots of ice ,and enjoy

Cu.ole lo que menciona, eso sí para que se haga bien y salgan buenos resultados no llenen el botecito que viene ahí, llenenlo a la mitad nadamás y van a ver qué se hace mejor y aumenta la cantidad.
