I looked at this on the amazon site. I am interested in buying a new ice
cream machine, but I have been so disappointed in the two that I have had,
the Donvier/Danvier. You had to crank it.

Does the one you bought have an electric motor? (or do they all nowadays?)
Does your brochure suggest that after you freeze your ice cream in the
provided container, that you put it into 'another' container in your freezer
to freeze some more before it is ready for serving?

I'd be interested in how you like your machine.
Thanks,
