Customers are dissatisfied with the quality of the ice cream maker.

High hopes and a huge letdown. Don’t waste your time or money
I did a lot of research and read reviews about this item before my pregnancy cravings finally had me late night ordering it one evening. I was so excited to receive the ice cream maker. When it arrived the box was in pristine shape. I immediately opened it and noticed what I thought was water spots on the inside of the bowl. Nothing was cracked or broken that I could see until I took the lid off. The inside bowl was very badly damaged and leaking. I had seen some reviews where this was the case but I realize things happen in shipping. I requested a replacement item. It came two days later. Again, box and everything else was in perfect condition. I opened the lid and notice two very small dents in the sides of the bottom of the inside bowl. I set the piece in that churns the ice cream and it didn’t seem it would cause an issue. I was still bummed that the second one was messed up as well. When I tried to put it all together I realized that the bottom of the bowl was actually bowed upwards and kept the lid from closing by about two inches. Therefore, making the product unusable. I was offered a 15% discount to keep the item even after explaining that the lid wouldn’t close and the item wouldn’t work. My other option was to return both the item and because I had already requested a replacement I would have to then reorder the item after I got the refund for the now two damaged machines I had. I obviously returned them, but I will not be reordering them. This was also the first time I have been disappointed with an Amazonbasics item and honestly their customer service as well.If you are considering purchasing I hope your ice cream maker arrives in perfect condition and you don’t have to deal with the back and forth, but also maybe mentally be prepared that it might be damaged. I also would not wait to put it together and make sure it works probably even if it actually does look ok.
