Ninja CREAMi Deluxe Ice Cream Maker | 11-in-1 Create Frozen Desserts, Sorbet, Milkshakes, Yogurt & More | Includes 2 Dishwasher Safe XL 24 Oz. Tubs with storage lids | Silver | NC501

You read my Headline correctly. This Ninja Creami Deluxe Ice Cream and Frozen Treat Maker is one phenomenal machine. This purchase choice was a difficult one for me to make. I kept hoping for ‘Just-a-Dad to review it but he never did. So I was left on my own without his advice. The reviews were very favorable and 5-star —*****. Professional reviews shopped by Google were also highly favorable. The Ninja Creami Deluxe Ice Cream Maker was either #1 or #2 on every list of ‘The Best Ice Cream Makers for 2024.’ The other #1 or #2 on every list was by Cuisinart. Their 2-qt. Ice Cream Maker was very highly reviewed just like the Creami Deluxe was. So what was the breaking point that made me go for the Creami Deluxe? Pretty easy if you know anything about it. It’s what it did! The Cuisinart made 1/2 gallon or 2 qts. of ice cream at one time. Making a gallon of ice cream by it was easier than the Creami. But since my children and grandchildren and great grandchildren now all live in Europe and no longer in Texas I live alone and have done so since the death of my wife. So, if I wanted to make some ice cream making 2 qts. it seemed too much. And to double batch it would really add inches to the ol’ waistline. And as I am now a septuagenarian who really cares about my waistline anyway! All this said, I guess you can see why I went for the Ninja Creami. It makes so many things other than ice cream, sherbet and frozen yogurt. In addition to ice cream, sherbet and frozen yogurt, it makes lite ice cream, gelato, sorbet, ceramicinnos, frozen drinks, slushis, milkshakes & malts, and Italian ices. Regular ice cream makers simply can’t make these items. Ninja makes several Ninja Creami models but the Deluxe model makes larger batches at a time. The other Creami models each make 16 oz. batches at a time though you can make several 16 oz. batches at one time. The Creami models other than the Ninja Deluxe make ice cream and other treats using what they call PINTS. And they are just that, one-pint containers. So if you make enough custard to fill two or three or more PINTS that is what you make. The Deluxe model uses larger PINTS. These are 24 ounces but are still called PINTS. Two PINTS come with your purchase and you can purchase extra PINTS on Amazon by many manufacturers. There is one particular brand of manufacture that is recommended because of their quality and exacting specifications. You see, the Ninja Creamis (all models) make their ice cream and other treats differently from other ice cream makers. Where the other ice cream makers require that you put your liquid custard into either a frozen bowl/container that has been in the freezer overnight or even longer and then churn the liquid for xx minutes until frozen hard. With the Ninja Creami Deluxe and other models, you fill as many PINTS as you have custard for and then put those custard-filled PINTS into the freezer for a minimum of 24 hours. (Personally I find that an extra eight (8) hours is best.) Then when frozen, you put your PINTS, one by one, into the machine to ‘do its thing’ with the custard. This process turns the frozen custard into a very wonderful rich ice cream that is unbelievably delicious. There is a stainless steel blade that is in the top that is affixed in the top which covers the PINT that drills down through the frozen custard and back up again all the time whipping the custard into a wonderful ice cream. What I particularly like about this system is that you can make several different flavors with one large batch of custard. For most ice cream custards, I start with a very low-calorie (oh, did I say low calorie? I meant to say high-calorie) vanilla made with whipping cream, half-and-half, sugar, and pure vanilla extract. I might make use two quarts of whipping cream which is, for my recipe, two double-batches of custard which will make 1/2 gallon of ice cream. With a regular ice cream maker, you can make different flavors usuallly two batches depending on the size of your ice cream maker. With a 2 qt. ice cream maker, generally you can divide the custard in half making two flavors. With the Creami using the same two quarts of whipping cream and my recipe for vanilla ice cream, I can get five PINTS of custard to put into the freezer. Using one (1) quart at a time, I get two PINTS plus about 25 percent fill in a third PINT. Mathematically speaking, with the second quart I can of course get another of the same and another 25 percent added to the same overflow PINT. You can now see that when I make two more 2-qt. batches of custard I will be able to make the whole recipe again and the overflow PINT will be completely full. The final line is that with four (4) quarts of whipping cream I can make eight (8) 24 oz. PINTS of ice cream and the additional PINT and can with these nine (9) PINTS can make as many as nine (9) different flavors of ice cream or ice cream and some milk shakes or malts-you have to purchase the malt powder which is available on Amazon.com. To date, I have now made vanilla, Dutch chocolate, raspberry, blueberry, strawberry, three-berry (blue-, black-, straw- berries), blackberry, cookies and cream, butter pecan, cherry (I use the same dark cherries that B&J uses for their very rich and unique ice cream flavor named after a very renowned singer), and Rocky Road. Needless to say, this wonderful Ninja Creami Deluxe Ice Cream Maker now sits on the kitchen counter along with the toaster and coffee maker. When I got it, I thought it would be stored under the kitchen counter somewhere but it instantly became as important an appliance as the coffee maker. Are there any critical things I should mention? Not really except to say that it is tall but it fits under my cabinets with a quarter inch to spare. Other reviewers have stated that it is loud. We so is my coffee bean grinder but I can’t complain. The Creami has two motors driving that blade down through a very solid, frozen cream-based custard. A double-motored machine is going to make some noise. It’s to be expected. But it’s not too loud and I would advise you not to make ice cream in 0300 hours. My Creami was Renewed by Amazon and when I opened the box not one item had been opened. So I saved a good bit of money by doing so. If one of these is available, I would advise you do look into a Renewed one. Can’t beat it for its versatility. As usual, you get what you pay for.

This was our family Christmas gift and so far everyone is so happy with it. There are SOO many options with this guy. I opted for the deluxe because you get the bigger canisters and I'm really happy I did. You have more options with this one; you can make sorbet, fancy coffee drinks (my teens favorite) and great ice cream! It's super easy to use once you learn what the buttons are for. There are tons of recipes in the book they give you and on YouTube. I do recommend watching a video to get some tips/tricks for it. We were happy with some of the ideas they gave us to help our machine last longer (like letting your stuff sit out for 15 mins before you spin it). We were able to get a set of canisters off Amazon because 2 is just not enough! Everyone has fun experimenting with different things to freeze and spin (who knew applesauce would be so good frozen!).

As someone who is health-conscious, this is easily the best Ninja appliance I’ve ever owned. I have used it to make a healthy protein pint every single night for over a year now, and it’s still going strong. Some highlights after using for over a year is the following: • Health-Friendly: It’s a game-changer for making low-calorie or high-protein ice cream that tastes good. • Ease of Use: Very easy to operate. Plus, there are thousands of recipes available online. • Durability: I’ve used this daily for 365+ days without issue (just make sure to follow instructions). • The Noise: This machine is loud. However, it’s a quick process and I don't find it overbearing or deal-breaking. Bottom Line: If you want a healthier way to enjoy dessert every night, this is worth every penny.

This ice cream maker isn’t for you if you’re a spur of the moment ice cream maker. If you’re not a spur of the moment ice cream maker, then it’s great. I put a couple containers of mixture in the freezer to be ready whenever we want to have a special treat after dinner. There are a lot of settings, but I just use the basic ice cream setting. The instructions are clear, the recipes it comes with are good, and cleanup is easy. It took a couple times getting used to it, but I was changing recipes to make them “healthy”. Once I started making regular ice cream it worked perfectly, albeit quite a bit louder than I expected. Once I fixed the recipe, a quick 2 minute spin, a respin for better texture, then a mix in for whatever we wanted to mix into the ice cream. Quick, easy and delicious.

Big powerful and a real workhorse. Extremely noisy and the sizes significant so when and use it is a household distraction for sure.

I gotta say, the Ninja CREAMi Deluxe has quickly become one of my favorite kitchen gadgets. It’s super fun and really easy to use — even if you’ve never made ice cream before. I’ve made everything from classic ice cream to sorbet and even milkshakes with it, and it all turns out creamy and smooth every time. What I love most is how easy it is to experiment. You can customize everything — sweetness level, mix-ins, dairy-free options, high-protein recipes — whatever you’re in the mood for. It makes it feel less like a one-trick appliance and more like something you’ll actually keep using. One of the most convenient things is the containers. The same containers you use to mix and spin everything are also the ones you store in the freezer, so there’s no transferring to another tub or making extra dishes. You just pop a lid on and stick it right back in the freezer. It keeps everything neat and super simple. Cleanup is pretty easy too, which is a huge plus because nobody wants a complicated mess after making dessert. Overall, the Ninja CREAMi Deluxe makes homemade treats way more accessible and honestly kind of addicting. If you like having ice cream or frozen desserts at home, this thing is definitely worth it.
