Editorial Reviews:

Makes 2 quarts of fresh soft-consistency ice cream or other frozen dessert. (Note: Soft ice cream can be hardened in an airtight container in the freezer for 2 to 4 hours.) The KitchenAid ice cream maker attachment's 2-quart capacity offers the largest stand mixer attachment bowl capacity in the industry, and its open design allows for easy addition of ingredients.

Summary: Great!
Comment: I still don't know why this costs so much more than the Cuisinart products, but I choose it since I already have a KitchenAid mixer and didn't want to have to worry about storage space for another appliance. It works great and the ice cream tastes delicious! I store the bowl in the freezer. It does work a little better when I set the freezer on the coldest setting.

Summary: ice cream attachment
Comment: Bought this ice cream maker for my sister's birthday present. She was thrilled. Hopefully we will have homemade ice cream for the holidays!

Summary: Yum...
Comment: I received this as a birthday gift. I love it. While it does take a good amount of room in the freezer, it's well worth it. Used twice so far without problem. I'm slightly concerned about the parts being all plastic, but no problems so far. I picked up used copy Ben & Jerry's Homemade Ice Cream & Dessert Book. Together, I will need to be careful about gaining 20 pounds.

Summary: Ice Cream Maker attachment for your Kitchenaid Mixer
Comment: I couldn't be happier than I am with this product. I have made three batches of Ice Cream so far and each one has turned out perfectly. I just store mine in the freezer all of the time so that I am always ready to make a new batch. I love that this product is so easy to use.

Summary: Great ice cream maker, but a little tricky
Comment: My fiance and I received this as a wedding gift. I have a KitchenAid Professional 600 mixer (6 quart lift bowl). The drive motor attachment does not fit snugly at all on the drive. In fact, it will fall off if not held in place. I got on the internet to see if I was doing something wrong, but couldn't figure it out. My fiance tried, too, but couldn't get the attachment to fit, either. Finally, I decided to put the bowl and dasher in place and see if it would hold the drive attachment firmly enough. It skipped a couple of times when I first started the mixer, but finally caught and held firmly and began to make ice cream. The ice cream (I made the French vanilla recipe in the instruction booklet) was delicious and only took about 15-20 minutes to reach a good soft serve consistency.
Overall, I loved the ice cream maker, but the instruction booklet should not say that the drive attachment should fit snugly, when it obviously doesn't (unless I'm missing something). The other drawbacks are the time factor (Bowl and ice cream mix must both be frozen/refrigerated overnight). I keep the bowl in the freezer, but the cooked recipes for ice cream mean that you have to plan ahead to make ice cream, which isn't that big a deal. Also, as others have mentioned, there is not much clearance on the bowl, especially on my mixer, so pouring the mix in is tricky (and messy). I did put the mix in a pitcher with a lip to make it easier and that worked pretty well.
It is a great attachment, but just be aware of some of the negatives before using it.
