Ice cream maker reviews
An ice cream maker allows you to create delicious ice cream and frozen desserts from the comfort of your own home. But are they worth it?
Our experts lab test models from Breville, Cuisinart, KitchenAid, Magimix and more, giving an assessment on:
- how well each one makes an ice cream, sorbet and vegan frozen yoghurt
- how easy each ice cream maker is to assemble and use, including using the controls and ease of cleaning.
We’ve also partnered with Shop Ethical on this update to show the ratings the Ethical Consumer Group gives to each company.
