It’s incredibly easy to use with just one touch, and it makes soft serve, ice cream, milkshakes, and more. I love how smooth and creamy everything turns out. Cleaning it is a breeze, which is a big plus. My kids are loving all the different ice cream flavors we’ve been making—it’s such a fun way to spend time together as a family!

This machine is an excellent addition to our kitchen. I have been using it everyday since receiving it. I love the fact that you can make even the simplest protein shake mixture into a frozen dessert.

Sounds a little scary while it’s running but I’ve had no issues to date. The machine comes with all the parts intact and has a little recipe booklet with all kinds of options. It’s pretty intuitive to use and the soft serve option is pretty nifty.

Wonderful machine. Does absolutely everything it says it does. Main benefit is the soft-serve ice cream, which comes out excellent. Just make sure to have your ice cream freezing for 24 hours before making or otherwise it will not work.
Only downside is the machine is HUGE. If you don't have anywhere to store it or insufficient counter space, this won't work for you.

Ice cream machine that's super easy to use. The included recipe book is also a great baseline to use to create your own recipes. It doesn't have a compressor, so you have to freeze your combined ingredients before processing. However, so far it's worked far better than similar machines that have you freeze the bowl. The swirl function is good as well, but not sure if it's worth the price considering how much more the Swirl is compared to the regular CREAMi and it's Deluxe variant.

This was a Christmas gift for my daughter and my grandkids. Needless to say soft serve ice cream was served on Christmas day. We make a weekly trip to the ice cream shop now we get to make our own. Great product that is fun to use.

We bought this as a christmas gift, as a member of our family has a severe dairy allergy, and nondairy ice creams are hard to come by. This makes great ice cream, and we can be vigilant about what ingredients are used, preventing any medical issues.

So far I’m loving how easy it is to make a low calorie or healthier version of my favorite ice cream flavors. It’s super easy no matter what your recipe. I’ve been enjoying soft serve protein shakes and fruit whips the most. Clean up is very quick and simple. My only drawback is the noise level. It’s loud like any Ninja ice crushing blender. But it works as well as advertised and clean up is a dream.

The thing makes pretty darned decent soft serve ice cream as well as a bunch of other things like sorbet, gelato, and frozen yogurt, among others. Realize that you do need to freeze the mixture for overnight before dispensing so there's no instant satisfaction. I do have to deduct one star for the noise. It sounds like a jet engine going off in your living room.

Woah! This thing is great! Yes it is a little spendy but we have many kids and each little tub of ice cream at the store is like 7-10 dollars now so it will pay for itself super quick, and you don’t have to only go with the store has for flavors you can make your own! I had some Nerds Ice cream for my first that I had out of this and it was delicious!
If you use the soft serve it is best to use it all when you make it because if you put it back in the freezer after making it then it gets hard. But it is a couple cones.
The one thing I would recommend is getting the extra tubs so you have some in reserve because it does have to sit in the freezer for a bit so having more made is better!

Pretty straightforward instructions and the results are excellent. Sooo many options to choose from. Sorbet is my go too just have to remember that frozen fruit isn’t as sweet so the end result won’t be either. A bit pricey though

The creami has been amazing- we bought extra containers to be able to keep the ice cream coming nightly! Kids love it, everything we’ve made has been diabetic/diet friendly. We’ve even used protein shake alone which produced an incredibly tasty ice cream.

Works surprisingly well! Bought an extra 4 pack of canisters, so we could make a total of 6 sets freezing overnight. So far, we’ve just made simple vanilla that we freeze, then add fresh fruit (blueberries, strawberries etc) or peanut butter, Oreos right before it does its blending operation. It works really well and is a more fun for kids because they get instant gratification with their chosen concoction without having to wait overnight. The mechanical process is a little confusing the first few times, but well documented.

Good Frozen Desserts With Some Flaws

Overall, this is an okay product. It does make some nice frozen treats. However, it can be a little inconvenient having to freeze most recipes a day in advance (you can use store-bought ice cream too, though, so at least there's that). The plastic seems to quickly develop fine cracks which seems to be a problem with Ninja products in general. It hasn't failed yet, but it does make me worry. This machine is also loud and expensive. It's for all these reasons that I'm giving this a 3-star rating, but at the end of the day, the desserts it makes are enjoyable.
