Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

I have had the Yonannas machine for a year and like it except for the cleaning. My mom wanted a Yonana machine since she is pre-diabetic and loves ice cream. I decided to get the dessert bullet to see if it was any better. besides a slight design difference they look like they are the same machine. Not only after testing them side by side they are the same machine, this one is harder to clean. Yonanas is half the price so there is no reason to buy this machine, it does nothing different. If you are considering buying this know that the fruit has to be frozen, really frozen and a lot of recipes use bananas. So basically you need to buy 8-10 bananas and freeze them for at least 4 hour but it is better overnight. It takes 8-10 bananas to make a small treat for 3 people. The cost of the ingredients is not a money saver over ice cream but I agree is healthier. Some of the flavors sound great but have so many seeds in the desert product. I like smooth ice cream so if I use berries in this machine the desert melts fast (remember there is no milk or fat) and you get a bowl of watery seeds. You also must prepare and serve asap. The treat will melt within 10-15 minutes. Be prepared because ti takes ALOT of fruit. To fill a bowl that would be the equlaivilent of 3-4 scoops of ice cream, you will use 5-6 bananas plus whatever other flavors you want, lets say strawberries, you will need 10+ berries added to the bananas. The clean up is the big pain. I would sue this way more if it were not for the clean up. The rinse off on tv is a joke. The fruits have pulp, seeds and lots of leftovers that get stuck inside. My husband doesn't like to see the machine come out because he knows he will be stuck cleaning it. If you don't get all the little fruit parts out, and then run it through the dishwasher the fruit gets stuck in. I have an upper end bosch dishwasher so I don't think it is my dishwasher & my mother has different brand of dishwasher and the cleaning is no easier. Great concept if you choose to pay more for the bullet name or less for yonannas, but you need to be prepared with LOTS of frozen fruits and deal with clean up.
