I am looking at (finally) getting an ice cream machine / maker in time for spring ..... but there seems to be an overwhelming number of choices!

Does anyone have one that they love, any pointers to look out for? or even brands that you have used and love....

I am hoping for one that is not too big, so it can be stashed away, is relatively simple to use?

any recommendations appreciated ....

I had one that you had to put in the freezer and never used it. I then got one (second-hand off this forum) which has its own in-built freezer and use it a lot to make great ice-cream and sorbet in just 25 minutes. It is a Gaggia gelatiera and makes about 0.7l at a time. The only drawback (apart from the price - I got mine at half-price) is that it probably needs to sit on a worktop as the refrigeration fluid needs 24 hours to settle every time you move it. If you don't mind the type where you put the bowl in the freezer, I think that the Andrew James was a Which best buy. And I'd recommend 'A Perfect Scoop' by David Lebowitz for recipes!

    • The problem with delivery people nowadays is that they are on such a restrictive schedule that they literally have to just try to deliver and run, otherwise they are penalised. I understand the frustration though.   And good luck making any kind of complaint to Evri. I once sold a laptop on ebay, took it to the Evri pick-up, where it was processed and it then went 'missing' between their pick-up place and the hub. Went through a long, long process where they offered me a desultory amount in compensation and I had to take them to small claims court before they came up with a fair offer the day before we were due to be in court. Long story short, Evri are shite.   Go to look at this forum for the number of people who have issues: https://nationalconsumerservice.co.uk/forum/183-postal-and-delivery-services/
    • I haven't had a rude EVRI delivery but last week I had an unexpected delivery at 10.42 pm. He didn't ring the bell or knock on the door (or rattle the letter flap) but just took a photo and put the box down.  If it hadnt been for the door camera giving us a beep we would never have known there was a parcel ready to sit there all night.  
    • Sorry if I’m being slow but there’s no point in having a gate then is there?  Would have thought it was basic manners to respect someone’s property 
    • I didn't say wedge it "slightly" open. I meant to wedge it fully open.
