It has a commercial quality compressor-freezer, so it's always ready to go. Separate paddles for gelato and ice cream, and fully automatic operation with a 60-minute countdown timer, help ensure perfect consistencies and professional results.

For unlimited flavor combinations, mix-ins can be added through the ice cream maker's see-through lid while churning.
