[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I recieved this product in exchange for my honest review. This Greenpan Frost ice cream maker was a fun little adventure. I did not expect it to work as well as it did. I made vanilla soft serve ice cream. I loved that I could make it out of whole ingredients. Most importantly for me, I loved that I could start the entire process just a little while before we wanted to enjoy the ice cream. You do not have to pre-freeze or pre-plan anything! My family and were watching a show after dinner. We paused between episodes for about 10 minutes to put the ingredients together, and this dessert treat was ready while we were in the middle of the next episode. I used the recipe from the booklet that came with the Frost machine. My recipe called for only milk, heavy whipping cream, vanilla extract, salt and sugar. I whisked them together lightly, poured them into Frost, and 25 minutes later, we got this gorgeous little soft serve ice cream! It was pretty amazing. The negatives are: the recipe is wrong. It called for 1 tsp of salt and that was WAY too much. I don’t know if it is a typo or what. It should be between 1/4 and 1/2 tsp salt! Despite this, it was still good and the perfect consistency and perfect vanilla flavor! My family still ate it. I will try again tonight and change the salt. The other issue is that the slots on the top into which you pour the mixture and later the cleaning water, is too small and hard to pour exactly into. It is easy to miss the slots and spill some.

Was excited to try this machine but so far no recipe has yielded icecream that can stand up in a cone. It is too soft. Made it using soft serve and level 6 and used frosts recipe as well as soft serve mix. The closest we got was the soft-serve mix and water but if course that was more icy texture than ice cream. The frost recipe was a pile of mush. We extracted it and it hardened in the freezer Unit is easy to use and not bad to clean but not working in a way my grandchildren can have cones

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I absolutely LOVE the GreenPan Ice Cream and Frozen drink maker! I started off by making a simple slushy with just some juice, it came out perfectly! It made me feel like I had gone out and picked up an actual drink from a popular drive thru fast food joint! It is extremely versatile being able to make boozy beverages, soft ice cream and slushies. It has its own cleaning functionality that I use between uses for the actual freezing mechanism and then I will hand wash the remaining pieces. Once you put it together once, it is extremely easy to take apart and reassemble. I didn’t find the noise that it makes while mixing to be obnoxious and you wouldn’t be able to hear it with a TV or radio in the background. I can’t wait to host some parties and use this to serve my friends and family!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This machine is amazing!!!!!!! Highly recommend I have the ninja creami as well and the green pan puts it to shame it is so easy to make ice cream slushies and other frozen drinks. Assembly was so easy you just place in the ingredients and you’re good to go! No freezing anything in advance. The texture of the ice cream and froyo is amazing lived this machine

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Amazing frozen drink maker that is super efficient, easy to use, looks stylish and works within 30 minutes. I have made the best milkshakes I’ve ever had in my life with this. I also made frozen spiked drinks and it creates the perfect texture. The motor is strong. Max 6 cups, minimum of 2 cups. You can’t add solid foods which is a bummer but you can mix in toppings after. Great ice cream and frozen drink maker.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is one of the nicest soft serve ice cream/frozen drink machines I have seen. It was a breeze to use & to clean. The size is perfect for a couple people or can make a larger batch for a big crowd. It is a very durable product that is definitely worth the price tag.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This ice cream machine is really easy to use. You put whatever liquid you want in. I made vanilla ice cream and it took about 35–40 minutes, and it beeps when it’s done, which is a nice feature. You can adjust the texture if you want it more/less solid. I like that you don’t have to freeze anything ahead of time or freeze after. You can eat it right out of the machine. It’s also really easy to clean! I would definitely recommend!

So, I started saying years and years ago with ALL the technology out there why don't we have any good home use soft serve machines? It can't be that hard. I started with a basic number Nia creami. I rarely used because of prep and the waiting. Got a ninja Slushi machine. Use it nearly daily. I like creamier drinks my partner doesn't. So someone was always sacrificing their preferences. Then got the swirl because by God! I want soft serve at home. Same problem slowly disapated to rarely using due to all the prep and waiting. Got this! The Frost. It does it ALL!!! Mostly anyway. With the exception of add on is the actual soft serve (add later, I don't even want add ins personally) or hard ice cream. This does it all. Quicker I think too. I couldn't be happier with it. Im happy because now I have enough machines to do whatever now. But I wish I could do over and I'd just have 2 of these machines. Maybe I still will 😜

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is a fun and great machine to get instant ice cream . It definitely takes practice to get to which consistency you like but it’s endless possibilities. I would definitely recommend everyone to have it . I look up recipes on tik tok to try a new flavor each week .

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Putting together Frost was pretty easy. The instructions are fairly well written and included diagrams to aid in assembly. There were a few moments that I needed to re-read some things, but it all eventually came together fine. I let Frost sit on the counter for the allotted 2 hour minimum per the booklet and then made my first item. It was a dairy-free chocolate and fudge ice cream. Later in the week, I did a coke slushie, a banana shake, and finally, a vanilla ice cream. Per instructions, I pre-blended my ingredients and added them into the top opening. I wish the top opening was a little bigger, but I liked that the opening was bowl shaped to catch and direct spillage. The dials were easy to adjust after reading the manual and looking at a YouTube video just for inspiration. I recommend adjusting the thickness level of your item to one tick higher than suggested if you want your creation to have a thicker consistency. Using the max fill line, I was able to make up to 5 servings, which was plenty for my family of 4 people. If you have a larger family, this will not provide enough. Depending on what you make will depend on how smoothly it dispenses. As the item gets low in the container, it extrudes out in a jerky manner because the rotating paddle is trying to push the remaining dessert out. Cleaning is easy. I put in soapy water into the top and set it to Clean mode. Next, the dirty water is extruded, and I then add clean water and repeat the Clean mode cycle. Once that water is extruded, the machine is disassembled, and all components are hand washed. It's pretty quick and re-assembly is very easy. The Frost comes with a fabric bag containing several items to help clean it, some extra gaskets and other things. There's also a recipe booklet with several delicious options. The machine is fairly weighty but very sturdy. I am not a fan of how flimsy the handle is, but I understand the design. I like that the spill tray has a magnet to keep it snug again, the base of the machine . I don't really care for the cone holder on the side and I am thankful that this option can be folded into the machine when not in use. I do like Frost, and the items created were very tasty. I think this would be fantastic for families that absolutely love desserts that this can create. It has wonderful potential to allow the creation of healthier dessert options too.
