Very pleased with this purchase. We have used it several times already - easy to use, great results. My children, and probably my grandchildren, will still be using this: rock-solid construction, made in the USA.

The best ice cream maker I have ever used, we made ice cream before baking hay, we have no electricity on our farm, it was 95 degrees and after baling it was stiff and perfect. Well built and fast shipping

This hand-crank freezer is head and shoulders above anything on the market - and made in the USA! I am an engineer, and I was highly impressed by the detail, materials, and the precision of the design. The outer can rotates one way, the paddle/scrapers rotate the opposite way, and an addition stirrer paddle rotates opposite the main paddle in it's center: a marvel of precision. Instead of fragile aluminum that corrodes around salt, and steel gears that rust upon the first us, this marvelous mixer has stainless steel for ALL metal parts. Forget about electric mixers that you have to finish with a crank anyway, and forget about really packing this one down with three inches of ice and salt over the top of the can when done. The bucket is so well insulated that it will never need packing after churning.

This is the best ice cream maker I or my son has ever used. My wife thought I had lost my mind spending that much money on it but after a couple of uses, she and the rest of the family love it. And yes I would buy it again.
