Overview
Cuisinart's ICM100T is a 1.5-quart automatic ice cream maker with a pre-freeze bowl insert and a wide fill spout for mixing in cookies, nuts or chocolate chips as it churns. It suits home cooks who want small batches of ice cream, yogurt or sorbet without a compressor.
The freezer bowl needs about 24 hours in the freezer before use, which is standard for this type of machine but catches first-time buyers off guard.
- 1.5-quart capacity
- Fully automatic operation
- Auto-reversing paddle to avoid jams
- Includes a recipe booklet
Who it's for
Fits households that want an easy once-in-a-while ice cream maker for family batches rather than a heavy-duty machine for frequent use. Not a fit for anyone wanting a large-capacity or built-in compressor unit that skips the freezer-bowl step.
Pros and cons
- Simple one-button automatic operation
- Wide fill spout for mix-ins
- Compact enough for most counters
- Freezer bowl needs about 24 hours to chill
- Plastic paddle feels flimsy to some owners
- Motor reliability may drop off after about a year
Performance notes
The insert holds a liquid coolant that needs roughly 24 hours frozen solid before it will properly set ice cream. Once chilled, the automatic paddle churns and switches direction if it catches on an icy patch, which is meant to keep the motor from stalling.
