What reviewers say
Sourced tester consensus for each — the "what people who used it think" layer, not just specs.
Whynter 2.1 Qt Upright Automatic Compressor Ice Cream Maker ICM-201SB
One whitelisted hands-on tester covers this exact model: NYT Wirecutter, which names the ICM-201SB a compressor pick after timing churns and weighing/measuring machines. It praises a light, creamy, stretchy dairy/custard texture but flags icy vegan results and bulk (~28 lb, 13.5 in tall). No other whitelisted outlet reviewed this exact model. (1 sourced review, 1 lab-tested.)
Praised: Goldilocks dairy/custard texture — light, creamy, stretchy, rich-but-light; Self-cooling compressor makes back-to-back batches with no bowl pre-freezing; Larger 2.1-quart bowl gives more room for mix-ins.
Flagged: Vegan/non-dairy base came out icier than rival machines; Heavy (~28 lb) and tall (13.5 in); not the most compact; Pricey versus the top frozen-bowl pick.
