Simply Great Ice Cream
By Kathryn Price
As this product had not been reviewed yet, I read various reviews for the Cuisinart ICE-20 Ice Cream Maker before making my decision to buy this product. Many remarks regarding the ICE-20 noted that the ice cream is the consistency of soft serve; numerous reviewers said it was too soft. I did not find that issue with the ice cream I made with this ice cream maker. I turned my freezer to the coldest setting and froze the bowl for 7 hours. I could not listen any liquid moving in the bowl at that point, so I assumed it was solidly frozen. I made the Simple Vanilla Ice Cream recipe from the booklet that came with the machine. After when it comes to 20 minutes, the ice cream was nicely textured and creamy. It wasn’t as hard as the packed ice cream you buy at the store, so I guess you might say the consistency was someplace amid soft serve and store-bought: firmer than soft serve, but not as firm as hard pack. As reviewers of the ICE-20 pointed out, if the ice cream was frozen as solidly as hard pack in the machine, it would be difficult to remove it from the container.

Much bettered from the ICE-20
By Banshee
I purchased the new ICE-21 ice cream maker from Cuisinart and just made my introductory batch of strawberry ice cream. I was a little worried that it would not freeze well based on the reviews of the ICE-20, also sold on amazon, but in in a literal sense 10 minutes after pouring the chilled ingredients in, I had perfectly textured ice cream. The unit is very easy to clean, not terribly loud, and as long as if doesn’t break on me after a few months (and I will update this if it does), I will say this is a outstanding purchase. Now I may make whatsoever flavor ice cream I desire! Mwhahaha!
