Amazon.com Review
This ice-cream machine makes soft-serve ice cream for cones, sundaes, or for piping into cannoli shells that will rival that sold at the local ice cream parlor-plus it makes fruit slushies or frozen cocktails as well. The 5530 produces 1 quart or 8 to 10 cones of ice cream in a mere 10 to 20 minutes and is a fun way to serve dessert at summer barbecues or kids' birthday parties.

The unit stands 19 inches tall when assembled and comes with a patented freezer canister that must be pre-frozen for at least 8 hours before creating a dessert. The canister has walls that are liquid-filled for even freezing and that are double insulated to keep the bowl colder for a longer period of time. When ingredients are ready, the canister pops into the body compartment. The stir paddle fits inside the canister and the plastic lid locks onto the top. The lid is clear for checking that desserts reach the proper custard-like thickness and has an opening for easily adding ingredients; however, chunky ingredients, such as candies or nuts, should be added afterwards as they can clog and damage the soft-serve spout. The compact 20-watt motor fits onto the lid and the power switch starts the action. With the ice cream maker running, cooks pour their mixed recipes through the top of the lid and wait anywhere from 10 to 20 minutes for the ingredients to reach the proper consistency. Soft-serve desserts dispense through a spout just below the ice cream maker's body by pushing down on a lever.

The sturdy base prevents the ice cream maker from tipping during mixing and its feet are spread wide apart to accommodate a large sundae bowl. This appliance comes with a recipe book and is covered by a one-year limited warranty. --Cristina Vaamonde

1 out of 5 stars Ice Cream Maker Disappointment   August 16, 2010
Emily S. Reinach-lannan (Louisville, KY)
Bought this for my husband for his birthday. He is an ice cream fanatic. I read the reviews, most were negative, but I found one positive that stated if you follow the instructions exactly as written, the machine will work. Well, my husband has tried it on several occasions and cannot get it to work properly. The ice cream either won't dispense at all, or it is runny and he has to freeze it in a bowl. His slushy maker works better than this machine. We chilled the bowl for 24 hours, (as a matter of fact, he cleaned it each time he attempted to make ice cream and put it right back in our chest freezer, which gets very cold, and left it there for days until his next attempt) and it still didn't work. So my hats off the one person who wrote the review that it worked, she must have an ice cream angel hanging over her shoulder blessing the machine.


1 out of 5 stars Terrible   May 20, 2010

First of all, this was very difficult to put together. Some of the pieces just don't seem to fit together right. I had the bucket in my freezer all winter, and pre-chilled my custard in the refrigerator overnight, and it still wasn't enough. It took over 45 minutes for it to thicken, and turned to soup within 15 seconds of serving it into a cup. It also dripped into the cup instead of coming out in a steady stream. I never came close to looking like the item photo. I tried freezing it for a few hours, and the consistency was definitely off - tasted grainy instead of smooth. Save your money and buy a regular ice cream maker where you scoop it out of the bucket.


3 out of 5 stars Deni Soft Serve Ice Cream Maker   May 10, 2010

I am giving this 3 stars not because of the seller. The seller is great! It is because Deni made a soft serve that is no good for a party of any kind. You can only use this product once every 24 hours. If you are looking for an ice cream maker make sure you do research and look up in Google for the intrctions. This makes about 3 sundae's than wait another 24 hours to make more. Too much time. Again the seller is good and prompt with deliveries. The product needs improvment. Not the seller's fault!


1 out of 5 stars Read before you buy   February 6, 2010
R. Moore (OLD HICKORY, TN, US)
I ordered this machine from All About Electronics on the Amazon site. I received the machine in good time and in good condition. Unfortunately the machine does not work no matter what you do and you cannot get your money back without spending money to return the machine. The company will not reimburse the shipping. So don't waste your money to buy this, none of them will work and your children will be as disappointed as mine.
After posting this review the company contacted me and sent me a return label so I would not have any charges and promised to reimburse the purchase price after they receive the machine.
