(Amazon) claims 45% savings off price ($545). Come one, retail price from Cusinart is $299. zero/nada/0 % savings!** A: So here it is 2018 and Amazon still claiming a $545 MSRP, while Cuisinart is showing a MSRP of $299. **Q: Trying to decide between Cuisinart ICE-100 and Breville BCI600XL. Would love your thoughts.** A: I have not used the Breville so I can't comment on it but I have been very happy with the Cuisinart ICE 100. Have had it about three months and have made probably 40 batches of gelato and sorbet. It is easy to clean and have made back-to-back batches with no problems. I am happy with it. It is a little noisy because my kitchen and family room are together and it is hard to hear the TV but I can live with that. **Q: Can I make a pint of ice cream in one use, or do I have to make the full 1.5 qt?** A: Absolutely you can. And like Calvin said, the less ice cream you make the faster it freezes. I have had mine for over a year now and it continues to work flawlessly. Excellent product. **Q: Once you've made your ice cream, if you then freeze it hard in the freezer, does it become like regular scoopable ice cream, or does it get icy?** A: It all depends on the recipe. If the recipe has less butterfat and sugar (like ice milk) then it gets icy and hard. More butterfat, more heavy cream, cream cheese, etc. and it stays scoopable. If it has alcohol in it (e.g. rum, Cointreau) it stays slushy. what you want is a r ecipe that is "just enough" of butterfat, surgar and alcohol to give you the texture you like. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐ Machine is not working *by B***U on 27 June 2019* The machine does not turn on. Attaching video for your reference. Kindly replace or refund the amount. After waiting for such a long it’s such a disappointment and we are in huge loss ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Muy buena *by C***I on 27 December 2019* Funciona muy bien ! El helado y gelato quedan deliciosos , es muy rápida, fácil y práctica Muy recomendable ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Well worth the cost for a high quality machine. *by T***A on 11 August 2015* I had always wanted an ice cream maker with a compressor as we make a lot of ice cream but only can do so through the hot summer months. Neither of us likes store bought ice cream and, too, it's gotten so expensive. Upon much research and also watching Ree Drummond (Pioneer Woman) use this model, I decided to gift myself with it. Best decision I could have made! I read the instructions twice just to make sure of what I was doing and mixed up my first batch of ice cream from the included booklet. My husband wanted fresh raspberry so this is the one I made first. It was delicious. The only thing I could have done any better was to really crush up the raspberries better. I only mashed them a little thinking they would break up on their own as raspberries are so fragile. They didn't break apart in the mixer enough but it was really good anyway. The bowl and paddle are very simple to get ready and the lid is easy to lock in. It even has a little door that can be opened to add nuts, etc. in the last five minutes of freezing. The really BIG rule is to not put in too much mix. If you do, as it freezes, it will go over the rim of the basket and then you will really have a mess. But the nice thing about the maker is that after a batch is done, wait 10 minutes and then you can make another batch. This you can do all day long if you choose. A recipe from the booklet makes just the right amount for the freezer. But in saying that, if you are a big ice cream eater or have very many people to serve then you will need to make more than one batch. As there are only two of us, this is the perfect amount to make as it last several days, depending how big a bowl my husband gets. I've made several ice creams, vanilla, chocolate (delicious) black walnut, butter pecan and several vanillas with the addition of items toward the end. One of my really favorite things to make are the sorbets. If the fruit is really ripe and sweet, much less sugar can be used in the recipe. Strawberry sorbet is my favorite. Unbelievably fresh tasting. And frozen fruit can be purchased all year around which are much better than the insipid fruits I'm able to purchase out of season. The machine freezes the contents pretty firmly and even has a 10 minute cycle at the end of the churning cycle to keep on chilling. The machine will shut off the churn cycle when it can go no further and then go to the chill cycle, beeping to tell you what is happening. Cuisinart has thought of everything in their design and produced a superior product here. A few hints: always have your mix well chilled before putting into the machine. I even set the mixing bowl in the freezer for twenty minutes before putting in the machine. Thoroughly chill the storage container to have it ready to put the finished ice cream. There's not much melting doing it this way. Have a small silicone spatula handy to scrape out the finished ice cream from the machine bowl. This gets all the ice cream out and the silicone is non scratch. You do not want to scratch the machine's bowl because it would damage the Teflon coating. And last but not least, just take an extra minute and hand wash the bowl, paddles and lid. So much gentler on everything. I found out that the Cuisinart does not churn in as much air as a White Mountain or similar out door maker does which makes the frozen product freeze harder. No problem though, just let it sit out of the freezer for a minute or two or microwave the container for 7 or 8 seconds to thaw it up a bit. Also, I noticed that several reviewers complained about how loud the machine is when churning. We haven't been bothered by it as it's quieter than our dishwasher...hmm...maybe I need a new dishwasher????? Well, now on to many trials and experiments with different recipes...can't wait. ## Frequently Bought Together - Cuisinart ICE-100 1.5-Quart Ice Cream and Gelato Maker, Fully Automatic with a Commercial Quality Compressor and 2-Paddles, 10-Minute Keep Cool Feature, Black and Stainless Steel - Set of 2 Reusable Ice Cream Tub Containers 1.6 Quart Ea. - Perfect for Homemade Sorbet, Frozen Yogurt Or Gelato - Stackable Storage Containers, Stickers And Lids Stores Easily In Freezer - Ben & Jerry's Homemade Ice Cream & Dessert Book --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.tn/products/254209894-cuisinart-ice-100-compressor-ice-cream-and-gelato-maker-silver](https://www.desertcart.tn/products/254209894-cuisinart-ice-100-compressor-ice-cream-and-gelato-maker-silver) --- *Product available on Desertcart Tunisia* *Store origin: TN* *Last updated: 2026-06-21*
