MaiisLife: Who knew that whipping up a batch of homemade ice cream could be as simple as clicking an attachment onto your KitchenAid? I sure didn't—until now, that is.

I gifted one of these nifty gadgets to my nephew and snagged one for myself, and let's just say it's been a game-changer. The setup? A breeze. The cleanup? Even breezier. Just give it a quick rinse right after use to dodge any dreaded stains or gooey messes.

As for the build, it's KitchenAid—we're talking the kind of sturdy construction that promises many, many batches of your favorite frozen treats. Whether you're a sorbet sophisticate or an ice cream innovator, this attachment is like your culinary wand for all things chilly and delicious.

¿Quién diría que hacer un lote de helado casero podría ser tan simple como enganchar un accesorio a tu KitchenAid? Yo ciertamente no lo sabía—hasta ahora, claro está.

Le regalé uno de estos prácticos artilugios a mi sobrino y me hice con otro para mí, y digamos que ha sido un cambio radical. ¿La instalación? Un paseo. ¿La limpieza? Incluso más fácil. Solo asegúrate de enjuagarlo justo después de usarlo para...

N. C. Taylor: This is a great attachment for making ice cream at home. I have rated it 5 stars simply on the quality of the ice cream the machine produces at the end of the churning process. Sure, you have to freeze the bowl overnight and thoroughly chill the 'batter' but the final churn takes about 20 - 25 mins and the end result is quite divine. I've had great success with the recipes included ( the French vanilla ice cream, pineapple sorbet and mango sorbet are stunning ) and have successfully made 'non-KitchenAid' recipes too ( the coffee ice cream out of 'The Perfect Scoop' book is the best I've ever eaten ). I note other reviews have been poor due to durability issues but I've had my ice cream attachment for 5 months now, used weekly and all is good. I do not wash / submerge the bowl in water at all. After churning, I remove the ice cream and wipe the inside of the bowl with a damp cloth; when the bowl has defrosted ( room temp ) I clean the inside of the bowl with a wet, warm cloth a few times. The outside is wiped with a clean cloth - whole thing takes about 3 mins. A few blogs have advocated this method of cleaning and their ice cream machines are still going...

Juan Lara: Teníamos tiempo queriendo este accesorio para la batidora, el helado queda mejor que el comprado, viene un mini recetario de helados pero en internet puedes encontrar más recetss, lo súper recomendamos hemos hecho un par de veces y todos los que lo han probado quedan facinados. El uso y forma de adaptarlo a la batidora es súper sencillo y mejora mucho el sabor del helado porque lo hace más esponjoso. Y al ser accesorio de la Kitchenaid sabes que nunca te va a dar problemas el motor.

Victor: Si tienes una batidora kitchen aid este es un accesorio que vas a gozar un montón, he preparado varias veces helado y a mis hijos les encanta, incluso si no sigues recetas de internet puedes hacer algo delicioso hemos hecho helado hasta con jugos que compramos y queda rico, también hemos hecho helado con leche descremada, vainilla y endulcorante para que sea completamente light y queda muy rico, hacer un helado te lleva como 20 a 25 minutos pero queda muy bien, incluso una vez hicimos demasiado y lo que sobró lo metimos al congelador y al día siguiente estaba rico no se hizo muy duro porque el proceso de helado es muy bueno, creo que hasta para una buena cena puedes impresionar con helado fresco a tus invitados pero recomiendo primero hagas algo en corto, importante a considerar es que debes esperar 16 horas antes de hacer tu primer helado porque debes almacenarlo en el congelador.

March CanoMarch Cano: Este tazón es muy útil para hacer helados, sin embargo, si no tienes tiempo no creo que sea la mejor opción. Es necesario dejar el tazón en el congelador un dia antes para hacer el helado. Después de 20 min la preparación tiene una cosistencia como de helado que has dejado fuera del refrigerador, por lo que hay que dejarlo otro dia en el congelador para que tome el aspecto de helado que conocemos, no es un platillo tan rápido, pero la recompensa es sin duda muy buena, y la infinidad de recetas más. El tazón viene bien empacado y con un recetario con las más básicas, pero en los canales de la marca puedes encontrar mucho más.

Gabby: Regarding Leaking Blue Liquid Reports: I had some concerns about purchasing this item due to the high number of reports on numerous websites that the blue liquid leaks. I contacted KitchenAid in the first week of February 2016 before purchasing the item and they stated there were no reports of product issues and therefore, no intent to change the design. I just shook my head in disbelief. By chance, that night I saw a review on a huge home improvement retailer website addressing this issue and a representative from KitchenAid responded and stated that the product had been redesigned. When I forwarded this information to the KitchenAid rep, they actually looked into it and stated "oh right, there was an issue, and it has been redesigned." So those who have this concern, it has reportedly been fixed. My only concern remains in whether I have received a new redesigned item versus an old one.... that issue, and the price dropping 20% one night, is why I decided to purchase it from Amazon. I figured the high volume of sales would make it more likely that I had received a newer product.

As for the product, I have used it one since I received it four days...

Tom F.: My wife and I recently purchased a KitchenAid stand mixer from a well-known warehouse store. Their current model is the KV25M (it says Professional 550 HD on the motor) which appears to have almost identical specs, 575 watts, to the Kitchenaid Pro 600 and is also a bowl-lift model. (Even though it's labeled a "5-1/2 Qt. mixer", the bowl is actually 6 qt.) We've had the Ben & Jerry's Ice Cream & Dessert Book from years but never owned an ice-cream maker. Within a week we decided we had to have the Kitchenaid Ice Cream Maker attachment.

I did a lot of research before I actually bought it and was pretty clear on several points:
- the bowl has to be solidly frozen in the freezer, preferably for at least 24 hours
- the ice cream mixture has to be well-refrigerated, at least 2-8 hours
- to keep things as cold as possible, quickly assemble the bowl and dasher attachment, turn on the mixer, and start pouring the refrigerated mixture into the machine

After 20-30 minutes you'll have ice cream with a soft-serve consistency. It can be pretty messy getting everything off the the dasher and out of the bowl. It melts really quickly, but...
