This machine works great! It’s starts to chill within 30 minutes. It can quickly become too frozen so you need to watch that. And if it isn’t full enough it doesn’t dispense well. I think I’m going to try to add a little water or club soda to it to see if that helps. Cleaning can be a bit messy so just make sure all of the liquid is out before to take it apart. I used a paper towel to soak up any remaining. But overall I say it was a great purchase!!
