Although pricey, this ice cream churn is worth it! The ice cream always comes out so creamy and smooth. Everyone always wants to know where we got this machine-usually we don't want to tell them because then they'll know how much be splurged on this machine.

... it wasn't so noisy!

Actually, to be fair its probably worth 5 stars. The ice cream is done quickly, turns out great, and the whole thing cleans up just fine. This is the first ice cream maker I've ever bought, plus the motor is pretty noisy, so I figured I'd leave alittle room for a higher rating.

Have used it twice. Didn't even remember the directions, and the ice cream still turned out fantastic.

The Rival F69206-X 6 quart Electric white Mountain Ice Cream Freezer was a wonderful purchase! We wanted to make 9 gallons of Vanilla Home made ice cream for a graduation party. The first batch was finished in 25 min. The ice cream was creamy and the machine performed very well despite our using it continuously for nearly 5 hours!

This machine works very well. My first try was not so great because I had some trouble figuring how to put the motor on. As for my second try, the ice cream came out perfect. I recommend this machine to those that have a large family or for large social events because you can make as many batch as you can without freezing the canister. The only negative thing I have to say is that they should have made a clear or plastic lid, so I can see what stage the ice cream is in, instead of waiting for the awful sound the motor makes when the ice cream is done. Overall, it is a good machine to invest your money in.

My father in law purchased a White Mountain Freezer years ago and it made the best tasting ice cream. My father purchased one last year and so my wife and I decided it was time for us to purchase one also. This freezer makes the best tasting ice cream anywhere. It is very easy to use and the 6qt capacity is plenty for a small family gathering. Whats best is that it makes ice cream in 20-25 min and then you can rinse and make a second batch using the same brine solution in approx. another 20 min. The freezer turns faster and the stainless steel components are a life time investment. Don't let the high price drive you away. It cost but is well worth the money.

Review: Untimate ice cream maker

->Compare Rival F69206-X 6-Quart Electric White Mountain Ice Cream Freezer

We had been looking at a White Mountain freezer for over two years (ever since our cheap, plastic bucket type died), but the relatively high price always turned us off. We finally decided to purchase, and WOW, what a difference! For the first batch (strawberry), I followed directions precisely, which call for a LOT of salt. I was amazed when it was done in less than twenty minutes and was the smoothest texture we ever had in homemade ice cream. I just had to make a second batch (peanut butter), which was done in 12 minutes and again came out great! The only fault I found is wood bucket dries out in storage and requires soaking in water for an hour or so to swell and not leak. Would definitely recommend machine to anyone serious about making good homemade ice cream fast.

I purchased one of these several months ago after laboring over the price. I have no regrets. It's a top notch made in the USA appliance and gives me a lot of enjoyment. It also makes the best ice cream from a family recipe that I've been playing with and tweaking for about 30 years.

The stainless steel can is a great feature and the motor has all kinds of power. I set mine in the kitchen sink in case I spill salt or brine water. When the ice cream gets stiff it gets loud. I usually put in ear plugs. Outdoors it probably wouldn't be as noticable.

I was sceptical if the patented dasher would really make that much difference. Trust me It does. Several people who I have shared the ice cream with agree too.

Everything about it says well made. I plan on having this one for a lifetime and passing it on to the next generation.

We found the ice cream maker itself very good and reminded us of the models available that we used in the 70's. The only complaint was the recipe book which gave the recipe for vanilla ice cream for a 6 quart freezer. We made the amount according to directions and found it was way more liquid than the recommended just over 1/2 fill on the container. If we add all of the ingredients as to cups of liquid it is much more than 12 cups. This needs to be corrected. Otherwise, it was wonderful!

This is my first ice cream maker and this one exceeds my expectations. It makes great tasting ice cream and with the 6 qt capacity you can add lots of extras to your ice cream. Unit is built to last, nothing on it is plastic. It is noisy when you turn it on so I just put it in the garage when I'm making ice cream, so this really is not a big deal. I highly recommend this ice cream maker.

This is an excellent icream freezer. I live in the desert so I am concerned about the bucket drying out. Folloe the directions that tell you to put a few inches in the bucket a few hours before using and it is fine. It freezes very fast and does'nt require as much salt as the directions call for.

I have purchased several "cheaper" ice cream makers in the past ranging from $20 to $60, only to find that they quit working for whatever reason shortly after I used them. This White Mountian Ice Cream maker is the best. I debated on whether or not to buy this item because it is pretty expensive for an ice cream maker. However, I am SOOO glad I decided to go ahead and spend the extra money to get the "top of the line". It works wonderfully and makes delicious, creamy ice cream in 20-30 minutes.

This is not your standard cheap ice cream maker, it is heavy duty.
The only draw back that I see, where there might be a problem in the future, is that the motor hold down clamp is a little light weight and there is no spout for the salt water overflow, an easy fix with a short peace of copper tube. I have used it many times and so for it is perfect.

This 6 quart ice cream maker is excellent and White Mountain has a long history of ice cream maker quality which I found is still in place. The pine wood bucket is great and I got a great tip from an avid White Mtn ice cream connoisseur to keep a little water in the bucket when not in use to keep the wood swollen so that when I use it again there are no leaks from the bottom/sides...which is normal for this type of wood. I do suggest that you read the instruction book when you buy it and do clean and dry the parts well after use to avoid rusting over time. The motor is fairly loud (only reason for 4 stars instead of 5) but overall this ice cream maker is excellent if you're going to be making a lot of ice cream and/or want a maker that will last you through the years. This is old fashioned ice cream at its best!

We have always had an ice cream freezer and have enjoyed many family get togethers watching the fam crank and take turns. We also enjoy the electric version. Recently ours died and we knew immediately we need a new one. We wanted the best and got it. White Mt. does the job wonderfully and we went for the 6qt. We have had it for a little less than 1 month and have used it 4 times already. We know from past experience you need to be carefull with the wood bucket or it seperates but if you rinse it each time and don't leave it outside in the weather or heat it will last a longgggggg time. We made ice cream for the 4th with a neighborhood party and someone commented they hadn't had homemade ice cream since they were a child. How sad when it is so easy with this freezer.

I purchased the 6-Quart freezer in May 05 and I am very dissapointed for the following reason. Not long after we received it it started leaking thru the sides (seams) between the slats.. We contacted Amazon and they told us to soak the wooden tub in water for at least 24 hours, and the wood would swell to stop the leak..Well we soaked the tub for the 24 hours and after some time we got it out to use again and the side had separated about 1/4 inch between 2 of the slats. Needless to say it will not hold the brian now to make it freeze, so I guess it is totally worthless..Now to say the least I am very very dissapointed after spending all the money for this freezer.

-> Rival F69206-X 6-Quart Electric White Mountain Ice Cream Freezer

The White Mountain Ice Cream Freezer is worth the money. The ice cream had a very smooth texture and maintained freshness in the freezer as long as it lasted. (This wasn't very long, though) I bought the Ben and Jerry's Ice Cream book, and used the White Mountain. My whole family was quite impressed.

One word of warning: The triple churning motion must really whip up the ice cream, because what was supposed to be a 4qt recipe made well over 6qt. I had ice cream coming out the top.

The whole product is quality. I have had other ice cream freezers in the past, but none as nice as this. The bucket is well crafted and the dasher is metal and wood and has considerably more heft than those plastic dashers you might find in a cheaper model. This thing looks very durable and I look forward to making ice cream for many years.

After comparing other ice cream freezer/makers, this is the best bang for your buck. You will be glad you paid the extra money. Most other brands are to small and do not have the powerful electric motor. After two or three servings of ice cream (with a smaller quart ice cream maker) your back at it again. If you're single, that might best fit your needs, but if your serving a family or guests you better go with the "big dog". And this ice cream maker will stand up to the test. With the 6-Quart White Mountian Ice Cream Freezer, you can make as much or as little as you want. Set up is quick and easy and the instruction booklet is very straight forward and simple to follow. Follow the instruction booklet and within 20-30 min. you'll have a great textured, blended batch of ice cream.

White Mountain freezers are definitely pricey for an ice cream freezer, but they can charge what they do because it is unparalleled in it's field. The triple-action mixing system mixes completely and helps create excellent ice cream. I must say that even though this is a very well made product they do have occasional defective freezers, and I purchased one. I contacted Amazon.com to return it and expected the normal run around with time consuming (wasting) questions and a long period before I had the issue resolved. I was quite impressed when, after less than 10 minutes of filing notice of return I had in my hand a postage paid return UPS sticker and 10 minutes later I received an email stating that my replacement freezer was being shipped that day by 2nd day express shipping at no cost to me.

->Compare Rival F69206-X 6-Quart Electric White Mountain Ice Cream Freezer

Yes, it makes ice cream but you can't eat it.

Inside the container where the mixture is poured, there is a beater which stirs it as it freezes. The sides of this beater are thin wooden slats connected onto the cast metal beater by a few, cheap metal screws. These screws get wiggled back and forth while the container spins around in the ice. When it finished I was scooping out the ice cream and I found black streaks in it. You had to look closely but they were there. I don't like the idea of aluminum.

This was a very cheap and not well thought out way of connecting the wood to the metal. Poor workmanship. Not recommended.

Ice cream making is a tradition in my family. I searched all the local stores for a white mountain ice cream freezer before turning to the web. The first bowl of ice cream from this freezer was worth all the trouble. It was frozen to a soft serve consistency (not at all runny) in about 20 minutes (we only made 2 qts the first time) but the motor had no problem turning the crank and the ice cream was very smooth. I am the first in my family to get one with a motor but it was worth the extra [money] to be able to just turn it on and go on making dinner and have it all be ready at the same time. If you want quality ice cream and lots of it, this freezer can't be beat!

I'm a novice to Ice Cream making. My family and I did own and operate a Baskin Robbins for about 6 years and I got to visit the dairy where they made the Baskin Robbins Ice Cream. For my money, even though this was an expensive purchase, the White Mountain ice cream maker provides the closest reality to taste and texture that commerical ice creameries produce, given the right recipes. The quality of the paddles or solid and designed to last a VERY long time. True the machine is loud, it also works hard to mix any type of ice cream wanted and does it very, very well. We've made about 20 batches so far and with the exception of 2 of them they all turned out perfect. The 2 that were bad, were pilot error. We also invested in the Ben-n-Jerry recipe book, which I also recommend. It covers everything from Vanilla Bean (yummy) to Cherry Garcia (double yum). For the money you'll end up buying 2-3 of those [inexpensive] ice cream makers and wear them out in no time. We have a large family for get togethers so we use the full 6 quarts, but it will do smaller batches for just 2-3 people with no problem. It cleans up easily with the cylinder being Stainless Steel and the wood paddles add a sense of realizime I love, plus it doesn't taint the ice cream, just like the pro's. A+ to White Mountain.

->Prices Rival F69206-X 6-Quart Electric White Mountain Ice Cream Freezer

This is our first ice cream maker and it has worked well for us. I liked the ice-free machines that didn't require storing the bowl in the freezer, but they were too pricey and had small capacities. This machine has more than enough capacity (we have yet to make a full batch) and dealing with the ice and salt is not that much of a hassle. My only complaints are that it is noisy (like a mixer on high speed) and it seems expensive for an electric motor, a stainless steel container, metal mixing paddle, and a wooden bucket that leaks unless you keep some water in it to swell the wood). The noise is not extreme, but you do have to raise your voice a bit to be heard. The manual only has 3 or 4 basic recipes in it so I would recommend getting a recipe book as well (we use Ben and Jerry's).

->Deals Rival F69206-X 6-Quart Electric White Mountain Ice Cream Freezer

I come from a family where homemade ice cream is a ritual and a tradition. Nearly every family gathering (4 or more per year) involves the making of homemade ice cream. People have three servings. And then a few hours later, a few more. Its quite amazing. The quantity made and consumed is large.

Most families within the larger extended family have their own ice cream maker. And all of them own and swear by these White Mountain Electric models. They have owned and used them for many years, having previously burned out many other brands before finding this brand that just keeps going forever. They even own multiple ice cream barrels so they can make multiple flavors using one bucket/motor set. (a good idea actually)

Now that I have my own home, I need an ice cream maker of my own and this will be the model. After all, I would be teased, mocked, and generally looked down upon if I bought anything else. Because the experts (my relatives) know that this is the best.
