I absolutely love this machine. It makes perfect soft serve ice cream, milkshakes and slushies. I haven't tried all the functions or recipes but the ones I've tried are great. I will say do NOT add the amount of salt they have listed on the ice cream recipe or you will have a very salty ice cream. We did that for the first one and it was gross, but only added a pinch the next time and it was amazing. It is very easy to use and all things considered does not take very long to make your treat. It also has a self cleaning functioning that makes cleaning it so easy and it's not too loud in my opinion. It was expensive but is a high quality product and also looks cute.

I really hesitated on buying this. I didn't know if I could justify the cost for something that just makes treats. Especially since I try to stay keto. I did some research and bought this along with some allulose syrup and guar gum. It's been fun playing around with the amounts of each addition, but I have gotten some really good soft serve and slushies. The first thing I made was some real margaritas with a margarita mix and it was restaurant quality (not keto 😉). Then I wanted some soft serve so I used one prepared keto chow shake, four teaspoons of allulose syrup and a teaspoon and a half of guar gum. The consistency for soft serve was perfect and it didn't taste too sweet. I've tried those ratios many times and it doesn't always work. You just have to keep tweaking it. I also tried sparkling ice bottled drinks with about two teaspoons of allulose syrup and got really good slushies. But again two teaspoons doesn't always work. Sometimes it's too frozen and sometimes it's not frozen enough. The nice thing with the allulos syrup is you can add it while it's churning. I'm glad I spent the money because I imagine I will be using this almost every day during the summer. I haven't had too much trouble with the cleanup. I use the clean function on the machine and then I usually take it apart and just give it a quick rinse and wipe down. No big deal. I do you have some concerns about how long this will last because everything is plastic except for the handle. So far it feels sturdy but plastic doesn't always have a long life span. All things considered I am very happy with this machine and I would highly recommend.

Worth the extra cost to be impressed and happy about a purchase. works as described and fast operation. Would like it to have a colder selection, but it works well. Easy to clean and has a good assortment of recipes for you to try.

NOT A FAN! RETURNING! I added monk fruit... the texture was great and the EEE warning kept coming on and spout would stop working. What is the point of having an ice cream maker so you can make your own healthier version and it stops working because there's not enough sugar? Then, taking it apart was a total mess and ice cream gets all over. It is a pain in the BUTT and not worth the money. I was so excited about this and I love GREEN PAN, but this is a dud.

Great all around. Super easy to use, quick to make slushies, is relatively quiet unless it is running low, and has worked consistently for months. I have recommended this product to multiple people! Everyone who sees it and tries the slushies from it loves it!

Purchased this product; and also the Ninja Swirl thinking I would do a comparison myself on how close to good soft serve each machine could produce. Caught both on special so the price of each was almost identical. Also bought some Dole Orange Soft Serve Mix (here on Amazon) to try out the machines. Used a Dole recipe I found online (started with 1 cup of Dole mix) and instead of the 3 cups of water in this recipe, I used 2 cups water and 1 cup whole milk. Mixed it in a large measuring cup with a whisk. Into the Greenpan the mix went; and started the machine on the default L4 setting for soft serve. (UPDATE: Later batches I used 1 cup heavy cream instead of the 1 cup whole milk to make it creamier; and set the machine to L5) All I can say is WOW....it was perfect. Dispensed into pre-chilled bowls and what a treat it was. The quantity of mix using the 1-cup Dole recipe was too much for two people (we ate it until we couldn't any more lol). Leftovers went into a pre-chilled glass container with an airtight cover and into the freezer. Next day I had orange sorbet....yum. Next was vanilla soft serve...2 cups whole milk, 3/4 cup heavy cream, 1/2 cup sugar, 2 tbsp instant vanilla pudding mix powder, and 2 tsp vanilla extract. Tasty! I did bump up the cold setting to L5 to get it a little more firm. And might use slightly less vanilla extract next time. Experimentation is part of the fun. While some recipes include adding salt, I don't add salt to any of the mixes I've made. Turns out I never opened the Ninja Swirl box...it went back to the store. The Greenpan was that good. Who wants to wait 24 hours to satisfy a frozen treat craving? And what do I do with the store-bought ice cream I had in the freezer? Decisions, decisions. VERY IMPORTANT - Since this unit has an internal compressor, upon initial delivery; or if the unit has been placed on its side for any period of time, it must be allowed to sit upright for AT LEAST 2 hours (the longer the better) before turning on, to allow the compressor oil to flow back down into the bottom of the compressor. If not done, the compressor can be damaged and will significantly shorten its life. Also, I would recommend to not lift the machine by grabbing the plastic mixing chamber or the handle - it will put pressure on the slots that hold the mixing chamber on to the machine and might break them, causing a leak. So far I've made two batches of Dole mix (pineapple and orange), two batches of vanilla soft serve and one chocolate soft serve in the span of about 10 days. I'm gonna get fat lol........
