Fully automatic, this at-home ice cream maker was designed with convenience in mind; all users have to do is fill its double-insulated freezer bowls with their ingredients of choice, turn a dial, and press start. Unlike other ice-cream makers on the market, this unit requires no chemicals, ice, or salt. Sure to satisfy one's sweet tooth, the machine can produce 1 1/2 quarts of frozen dessert in under 20 minutes.
