I will never buy ice cream from the supermarket again. I say it and I sign it. Izzy Italian Gelato came to our home and completely changed the way we see ice cream.

It has 8 programs, so you’re not playing by chance. You choose what you want: gelato, vegan, sugar-free, gluten-free, whatever you like, and the machine knows what to do.

The 3 containers of 650ml each are something I loved. You make three different flavors in the same round. Chocolate for the child, vanilla for the wife, something more experimental for me. All together.

The result? Chewy, velvety, without crystals. Like the one you pay for at the shop, but here you know what’s inside.

And the self-cleaning function is the cherry on top. You don’t waste half an hour washing it afterwards.

What we made:
-Chocolate ice cream for our waffle sandwiches, velvety, dark, and addictive
-Vanilla gelato with soft cookies, amazing. Like the one you pay €4 per scoop for.

Happy cooking and have a great summer!

amazing and the ice creams are each better than the last, worth every cent.

There is no better time than to see a review of an ice cream maker, since the time is coming to make ice cream at home, which we will need again this summer. I am one of those people who obviously do not stop eating ice cream throughout the year. I don't know why there is this imaginary break from ice cream consumption. Anyway. So, now that we've cleared that up, let's take a look at the new Izzy IZ-2045 Italian Gelato ice cream maker. I used it for about 3 weeks and I've made quite a few things!
Let's get to know it a bit up close first. Initially, it's quite compact, not very small but not very big either. It's narrow and tall so it doesn't take up much space on the counter. It has this large screen at the front with all the options you might need for making ice cream. Obviously, regular ice cream, light ice cream if you use different ingredients, Italian gelato, sorbet, granita, smoothie bowl, frozen yogurt, and some frozen drinks.
It has a power of 800 W and, of course, respin functions, so if the texture isn't exactly how you want it, it does another cycle a bit slower to get the ice cream just right. It has a Mix option, so when the ice cream is ready, you can add extra fruits, cookies, or anything else like nuts, and it mixes them in slowly so everything combines and your ice cream is ready. It also has an automatic cleaning function.
It comes with three containers. They are BPA free and have a capacity of 600ml. However, the actual capacity is about 500ml. So it's just right, half a kilo of ice cream to keep in the freezer. At any given time, you can have 1.5 kg of ice cream in different flavors if you want to try different things to cool off in the summer. Or in the winter or any other season. Let's not have that discussion again.
So, how did it do and what have I made in the last three weeks? Of course, I made a lot of regular ice cream, gelato, and sorbet. I also tried the Light option, I'm not a big fan but I tried it to see how it is, along with granita and frozen yogurt.
I made strawberry sorbet, strawberry-cherry, and watermelon. I made regular chocolate, chocolate gelato, and regular vanilla ice cream, which I made two or three times and added different ingredients each time with the Mix, like crushed Oreo cookies, fruits, etc.
So, it's a very good device, quite economical compared to other similar ones. It's about €170, it makes the ice cream properly and as it should, with the right consistency and texture. Just as it should be. I definitely recommend it if you want a reliable and good machine to make ice cream at home, with exactly the ingredients you want, and in case of dietary restrictions, for reducing sugar or anything else that requires full control, then you won't be disappointed!

I haven't used it for more than 2 weeks but I have to say as a first impression it's amazing, it's worth the money I paid for it. I just have to point out 2 negatives: the first is that the lids don't fit well, meaning if I turn it upside down or sideways the lid will come off immediately, and although I can't say it's a big negative since it should always be placed vertically in the freezer, it's something to note. The second negative, which I don't know if it really is a negative because I have no experience with other ice cream machines, is that the blades don't reach all the way to the bottom and leave a layer that isn't mixed. Now, I don't know if this happens with other machines or if it's for safety, but the layer isn't big, still I have to mention it. Otherwise, perfect texture, taste, and it really feels like you're buying ice cream from outside. I recommend it!

Excellent purchase!
It is truly an amazing ice cream maker and produces professional-level ice cream, with a texture and taste reminiscent of an ice cream parlor. It is very easy to use and the results are perfect every time.
For me, having two small children who don't consume sugar and a husband who doesn't eat gluten, it was the best purchase I could have made!!
Additionally, it comes with 3 bowls and I can prepare many different flavors at the same time and cater to the preferences of the whole family. The ice cream really comes out like professional and the variety I can create is incredible.
I highly recommend it to anyone who wants to enjoy perfect homemade ice cream easily, quickly, and affordably!

Perfect choice!! Amazing ice cream with perfect texture.. the machine is on fire!! It's one of the few that has large bowls for preparation

Very good product, very easy to use.
It has 8 different programs.
Very powerful blades.
You can make gelato ice cream, sugar-free, vegan, gluten free, etc.
It includes 3 containers of 650ml each and the texture of the ice cream is chewy and without crystals. It is worth its money and with the current price of ice cream you will definitely make up for it in one summer if you make ice cream often.
It has a self-cleaning function.
