I was surprised by how expensive it worked out as. By the time I'd got the cream and all the other ingredients I'd spent about the same as I would for a branded premium quality ice cream
The results were very good though. The ice cream was delicious and had the advantage of not having any preservatives or other chemicals in it
The drum did take up a lot of room in the freezer and our machine was hand operated, which was pretty arduous. And then it broke
But for a while we did have fresh, delicious ice cream and it was fun to do
