I am a customer of this type of product. It's heavy, strong, beautiful and effective. I will not talk about the price, because it is the price of a standalone ice cream maker. By cons, quality is by appointment, I have just this week, 1 bowl of raspberry sorbet, 2 bowls of Nutella ice cream, 1 vanilla caramelized macadamia bowl and 1 bowl of lemon sorbet. The result is very homogeneous, and a beautiful consistency. So I'm delighted. The build quality is really blameless, I emphasize this aspect because I had no other model that was much less.
