Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of Lello 4070 Gelato Junior

Customer Review: Not a great machine - a huge disappointment in fact
Summary: 1 Stars

I purchased the Lello 4070 in March 2009 in order to upgrade from a cheap ice cream machine that had a canister that had to be kept in the freezer at all times if I wanted to make ice cream on a whim. I wanted the convenience of this type of machine & the space back in my freezer. I have to say that I've never been happy with this ice cream maker's performance. I wish now that I'd paid more for a better quality product. I bought the machine based on the good reviews and am disappointed. The quality of the ice cream it produced was never better than my previous machine which was a $30 Deni machine! The other problem is that you can only put very small quantities of custard (2 cups to be exact) in the canister at a time and since most custard batches produce more than 2 cups - that would mean I would need to run each batch of ice cream in two parts. That's not very convenient nor timely. The biggest problem is that after only using the machine 4 times - it seems to have died! Every time I plug the machine in, it trips the fuse and will not turn on under any circumstances. I'm left with either sending the ice cream maker to Lello repair which doesn't appeal as I kind of hate the machine or getting a partial refund from Amazon. Save yourself the hassle and invest in a better machine. It's not very good and I can't really recommend it to anyone. It underwhelms in it's performance...

Description of Lello 4070 Gelato Junior

With a minimum freezing temperature of -4 degrees F, the Simac Gelato Junior takes only about 30 minutes to satisfy your craving for a frozen confection. Plus, the built-in compressor freezer operates continuously, so you can turn out multiple flavors of ice cream while your guests finish their dinner. A 60-minute electronic timer frees you up for other activities, and an automatic safety mechanism sounds a warning beep if the integrated spatula blade gets stuck. A removable 1-quart bowl, transparent lid, and slim ingredient window all simplify operation, and the unit is also useful for crafting frozen drinks and chilled soups. Though not lightweight at 31 pounds, the Gelato Junior is fairly sleek for its class, measuring 11 by 14 by 12-1/4 inches. Simac includes a booklet of tasty ice cream, sorbet, and dessert sauce recipes, as well as an ice cream scoop. --Emily Bedard
