According to our ice cream maker expert
Ice cream, who doesn't love it? The great thing is, with the Princess Ice Maker Deluxe you can make this treat yourself. The ice cream maker works completely automatically using an integrated freezer compressor. That means you don't have to put the bowl in the freezer beforehand. If you're feeling hungry, the Ice Maker Deluxe will create fresh ice cream within 2 hours. The only thing you need to do is choose your favorite ingredients and adjust the machine's settings via the display. Using the timer, you can set the time and the transparent lid gives you a view of the preparation process. It won't take much effort to feel like you're sitting on a patio in Rome enjoying fresh ice cream.

I have been using this ice cream maker for several months now but I am not 100% satisfied with it.
The machine is easy to use with clear functions and timer on the screen. It's also good that it freezes itself, so you don't have to put a cooling element in your freezer for 24 hours first. You can also detach all rotating parts and the tub and remove it from the machine for washing.
Unfortunately, every time I make ice cream, I do have a few problems. The biggest problem is that the mixing element starts to get stuck once the ice starts to harden a bit. This is because the bottom freezes much faster than the top. Because of the way the mixing element is connected to the motor (a kind of rubber with hooks, difficult to explain) the motor continues to run, but if the mixing element gets stuck, this rubber connecting piece starts to "overflow". click", as a kind of safety so that your engine does not seize and burn. If this connector had to connect better, I think the machine would mix better as the ice solidifies.
The problem here is that the ice is not solid, only the bottom is frozen but the top is still flat. Usually I put the tub in the freezer for another hour or two, but then you have to wait longer for your ice cream, which should not be the intention.
By the way, I've tried different ice cream mixes, from ready-made to powders to homemade batter, but I have this problem with all ice cream mixes.
The other problem is that the tub is for 2 liters, but I wouldn't put more than a good liter of batter in it, otherwise your tub will overflow and I don't think the engine will pull if you make that much ice at once, it begins to noticeably "moan" with large amounts.
I was looking for an affordable self-freezing ice cream maker, but in the future I will rather spend a little more money and buy a more professional machine.

This is an excellent ice cream maker. Makes a delicious ice cream in no time. Only have experience with the somewhat fatter types of ice cream (ice cream and gelato) and this machine makes about half a liter of ice cream within 40 minutes. The stirrer is strong enough to spin solid ice. No experience with sorbet ice cream yet. Ice cream made with this machine also keeps well in the freezer without becoming grainy. With my previous machine, crystals would sometimes form in the ice cream if you kept it in the freezer. That is not the case with this machine. Possibly due to the quality of the agitator. Takes some effort to get the ice cream cup out of the machine. This is fairly new in the device, which of course benefits the efficiency of cooling. Cleaning is a piece of cake. The ice cream maker is quite substantial in size and weight. Not a device that you store at the top of the kitchen cupboard. Got a nice spot on the counter with us. The manual is not really extensive, but the operation of the machine is quite simple and self-explanatory. Princess also does not provide much information about their ice machines via the website, at least I have not been able to find it yet.
