I have the Cuisinart Pure Indulgence 2 qt and I love it! Like Breezy I keep my drum in the freezer (I have four so there is usually room) and have often whipped up a batch on the spur of the moment for company or just for me! The one thing is on the 20-25 minute cycle the ice cream is pretty soft, but it is truly edible and if you want it harder and have time, just put it in the freezer for even a half hour.
