Okay, first off, I know you get what you pay for. That said, I was thinking of just experimenting a little with making ice cream and frozen yogurt. My dad's been a grump since they discontinued the boutique black raspberry ice cream he loves, and it'd be nice to be able to make him a batch for Fathers Day.
Hopelessly broke as I am and will be for the next, oh, five or six years, I've been plodding around the second-hand stores, and the two models I've come across (both for about $10 US) are one by "Ultrex" that has a manual that's stuck shut by water damage, and the other, which I've found in various sizes, is the "Yum Yum Machine" by RCW.
Both look kind of dubious in their origins, but there's a "Yum Yum Machine" at the Goodwill that's pretty big, and seems to be in good condition.
So, uhm... Thoughts? Recommendations? Horror stories? Things I should look for in evaluating one?
Oh, on a related note, any thoughts on the Deni Freshlock Turboseal? The original, not the "II".
