Specifications for this 1.5-quart dessert maker include a double-insulated aluminum bowl and a high-torque AC synchronous motor. The unit is designed for simplicity, featuring a minimalist part count to reduce potential points of mechanical failure. Its pink high-gloss finish is resistant to UV yellowing, maintaining its aesthetic over time.
The mixing paddle is made of BPA-free polypropylene, designed to flex slightly as the mixture thickens. Features include a transparent SAN plastic lid for easy monitoring, though care should be taken as this material is more brittle than polycarbonate. For best results, the freezer bowl requires at least 16 hours of preparation in a standard freezer before use.
Specifications indicate an acoustic profile of approximately 70dB, so it is most active during its 20-minute churning cycle.
To protect the internal plastic gear-train, it is best to add hard inclusions like nuts or chips toward the very end of the cycle. This unit is a straightforward option for families looking to make small batches of frozen yogurt or sorbet with minimal setup.
For those who want to skip the 24-hour bowl freezing step, the Whynter compressor-based model offers immediate cooling.
