Just found this thread because of the weekend post and I'm finding myself really tempted by that $180 Creami @ Costco. If I hosted people more than once per year it might push me over the edge. OTOH, I'm in my 40s and having quick access to make any kind of ice cream pretty much on demand might just push me into the grave.

Also, for anyone looking for a less negative POV review than the ATK, this one from 2 years ago (older model) is pretty thorough. His negatives are that it is loud and takes up a lot of room. But the results are fantastic.

Does anyone have any input if the newer models are any quieter? That might be the biggest strike against using one on the regular for me. Also, this Deluxe model looks like it makes 5 drinks, which I'd probably never use. Anyone here have one of these models and have you used the drink settings?

The new one isn't any louder than a powerful blender or a vacuum, we got one a few months ago and it's great. My one complaint is that since I usually have to blend it twice, the consistency of the ice creme is more of a softserve. But the taste is wonderful!

Is there a guide anywhere on how to clean the shaft of the creami that ascends up into the body of the machine? I can't imagine they didn't consider dairy gunk going bad in there with no way to clean it


I'm assuming you've seen this upthread and want something more tested?

The gum is what helps with preventing melting. I might try it since the consistency is closer to a thick shake than ice cream after two blends with the creami
