Magimix 11042 Le Glacier

The Magimix 11042 Le Glacier bowl is too large to fit upright in my freezer, which is not good according to the instructions. I can't get it to make the icecream solid enough so it has to finish off in the freezer which makes it crystalise, so no point really ! The plastic top part is fiddly and the on off button is temperamental.

My ice cream is lovely but I could have got the same results by putting the mixture in the freezer. A waste of money in my book.

To make this machine operate I have to jam a toothpick into the on button to make it stay on! The top is a pain to slide on. The bowl is very big and takes up a lot of freezer space. I have had other ice cream makers, and I don't really see how the extra this one costs is justified. There is also a two inch plastic bit you need to use the machine and you can imagine this would be easy to lose. Or if you have a cleaner like mine, you will have great fun trying to work out which random drawer she has put it in this time.

The Magimix 11042 Le Glacier is amazing, my friend Zaks here couldn't believe it either she went out and bought one too!

Magimix 11042 Le Glacier Ice Cream Maker Is a first-rate machine, but you do have to remember to put it in the freezer a day before you intend making ice cream, or just keep it in the freezer all the time.
