Bad Points

u0026#149; Borderline result for vanilla ice cream.u003cbru003eu0026#149; Only OK to remove paddle if not overflowing.u003cbru003eu0026#149; Fiddly to scrape out mixture from bowl due to narrow shape and central shaft. Needs a long narrow spatula to assist in removal – spatula provided feels too short, limiting leverage needed to scrape out load.u003cbru003eu0026#149; Open ice bowl so some ingredients can seep into bowl chamber, requiring extra cleaning.u003cbru003eu0026#149; Brushed stainless steel exterior shows some finger marks.u003cbru003eu0026#149; Wide, heavy and bulky unit – only OK to store.u003cbru003eu0026#149; Compressor unit – needs to sit upright at all times, doesn’t like being moved. u003cbru003e
