SPRINGLANE Ice Cream Maker Eni with Compressor 100W, 1L, Frozen Yoghurt & Sorbet Machine

Love it! Makes great ice cream in about 30 minutes. I wish I’d bought it sooner, my sister has one too and she’s been telling me to get one and I’ve finally got it. My grandchildren love it too, my four grandsons make ice cream every time they visit, the list of flavours is getting longer every time. We find the easiest basic recipe is, 2cups of custard, (readymade or cold homemade) and 1cup of double cream, up to half a cup of sugar to taste, we rarely add sugar. So far we’ve had milk chocolate flavour, just added a tablespoon of drinking chocolate powder to the mix. Dark chocolate, just added half a tablespoon of cocoa powder. Mint chocolate chip, added peppermint flavouring, a few drops of green colouring to the mix and then some crushed mint matchmakers when it was ready. Boozy black cherry in kirch (from a jar) and red colouring. Chocolate and orange (cocoa powder and orange essence) the list is endless! It’s a little fiddly to get the ice cream out of the mixing container but I soon found an easy way for me, it’s a bit noisy but we just close the kitchen door when it’s on and the loud beeping sound lets us know when it’s ready. It comes out frozen but still quite soft so I put it into little heart shaped moulds and open freeze them the turn them into a freezer bag and label and store in the freezer for individual portions and they’re quick to come to a temperature easy to eat.

I couldn’t wait for this ice cream maker to arrive. I already have the plant milk maker from the same company, so i knew the quality would be good. No need to pre-freeze the bowl which was another reason i went for this ice cream machine. Only down side is there is no recipe booklet which was disappointing. Yes there are lots of recipes on the internet but it would have been nice to have had a few basic recipes with the machine. Other than that it is a very well made machine. Easy to clean and makes ice cream in 30 minutes with no pre-freezing. Value for money is excellent. You can also make smoothies so not just for ice cream. Pros: Well made quality product Value for money Easy to clean No pre-freezing required Ice cream in 30 minutes Cons: None really except for the lack of a recipe booklet I would thoroughly recommend this ice cream maker.

easy to use ice cream maker, good price compared to more expensive versions, suits us as we don't use it that often but makes 1 litre in 30minutes which is good

I was semi skeptical because the price was much lower than other ones I had found which were similar. But it works amazing. Thick ice cream ready in 20 mins similar to a thick milkshake consistency. Have only tried two recipes from a separate recipe book I bought as this one doesn’t come with one. BUT they came out perfectly. Put the ice cream in the freezer for an hour for a more scoopable consistency. If overnight it’s solid and needs a little bit of time to soften up. Get cold super quick. Takes up a bit of space and it doesn’t want to be moved around too much. So finding a permanent place for it has been difficult. But if you got a decent sized kitchen shouldn’t be an issue. It’s quieter than I thought as well. I have a separate kitchen so I close the door and don’t know it’s on. If you have open plan it might be annoying but the noise is more a humming noise.

Amazing product!! Bought on sale in winter, value for money. Trying random flavours which you cant get in shops! Easy to use too.

This is a very neat machine, offering value for money. However, website describes capacity as 1L, but this is a scant 2/3 litre. Not large enough for our needs, so we returned it.

I bought this for my hubby for his birthday... We love it. Does everything it claims, you don't have to freeze anything for hours before using it. Makes AMAZING sorbet, my favourite. So far we have made. Many different sorbets Biscotti ice cream. Oreo for the kids. (and me) Strawberry Yogurt ice cream. (use any flavour of yoghurt and it makes a fantastic flavoured ice cream.) Orange and chocolate Flake ice cream. (This wasn't great, the orange essence was artificial and bitter but that has nothing to do with the machine) Peanut butter (Crunchy and smooth) I didn't like this, but it's hubby's favourite. Coffee and walnut (Hubby) Coffee and raisin me (Yeah, okay, it was edible, not my favourite but loved the raisins in the ice cream. Vanilla and Malteser. Coconut and rum (Not a fan) Anyway, if you are hesitating over that button. Don't. Hit Buy Now. It's brilliant.

The machine is amazing, it works a treat! I think it's too powerful for the plastic paddle that is supplied to turn the mixture! I can't buy spare parts so returned the 1st one! 4 months after 2nd one arrived, and not used alot it's done the same again! This time I shall just chuck it away!so so sad its well made brilliant idea just inferior plastic used for paddle to mix. Sorry but it's the truth!
