i got this for $12 bucks at walmart and i am glad i didnt pay $20 or more from this site. it is impossible to get the ice cream out of the ball. instead of putting the ice cream mix in the cylinder and the ice outside in the ball part, it is reversed, and IMPOSSIBLE to mix or scoop out. i had to use a long skinny iced tea spoon and i scratched the metal cylinder. i didnt even feel like cleaning it afterwards because i knew i would never use it again. i chucked it in the garbage. good luck.

The first pint of ice cream took a long time- your arms get pretty sore. On the second pint, my son dropped it (accidentally) from about 3 feet up. It is now ruined (illustrating how heavy it really is). If I knew who to appeal to, I would try to get a free replacement, and CERTAINLY to suggest adding rubber strips to all the hard edges. This would make it MUCH more durable and keep the damp exterior from slipping through cold and icy fingers.
 Great idea, doesn't quite work April 30, 2008

I got this for the kids for Christmas a couple of years ago. We followed the instructions exactly, had lots of fun rolling it around, and wound up with some soupy ice milk. This is one of those products that is a great idea but ultimately, you don't use it much - we used it exactly one time, and no one has ever suggested using it again. If you want some exercise along with your ice cream, go run after your neighborhood ice cream truck.

Lots of fun for a bunch of kids April 28, 2008
I got this for my daughter's birthday as the Bratz ice cream maker she got only made about 2 scoops of ice cream. This makes a whole quart and I had my Girl Scout troop throw it around and there was more than enough for all of them to have an ice cream cone. They loved it. It's a lot easier if you have a group, my girls took turns but they certainly earned their cones. I will do it with my Cub Scout troop when we are camping. This is a great, simple item!
