What matters in ice cream makers

Batch size and how the machine gets cold decide most of the choice. Compressor machines and Ninja's CREAMi need no frozen bowl or ice. The CREAMi works differently, though: you freeze the base in its pint for about a day, then the machine shaves it. Freezer-bowl and ice-and-salt machines cost far less but need the bowl frozen or a bucket of ice before every batch.
