In this case, it is one of those cooking toys that I was so pleased to
get initially. I picked up one of those Rival Soft Serve Ice Cream
Makers. It is the type where you put the bowl in the freezer overnight
or a couple days in advanced, and then you put it all together, run the
machine and the ice cream forms inside, and then it has an auger to push
the soft serve out the bottom.

No leaks, the parts go right together and the machine operates as it
should. BUT, the bowl just doesn't freeze the ice cream adequately, and
I never got anything closer than a well melted shake. Three tries, no
worthy results, out it goes. And this isn't even worth a FreeCycle. It
was so bad, I couldn't inflict it on anyone else either.

So does anyone here have one of these, and if so, how did you get your
results (presuming they were better than mine)?
