What customers say
Consumers enthusiastically praise the Ninja CREAMi Deluxe for its remarkable versatility in creating diverse frozen treats, from rich ice cream to sorbets and custom milkshakes. A major draw is the control over ingredients, supporting healthier, personalized creations. Users frequently highlight the superior texture achieved. While the machine offers great enjoyment and is often called a game changer, feedback notes its considerable operational noise. Some users also mention a slight learning curve to master consistency and the need for dedicated freezer space for the pints. Overall, the unique capabilities justify the investment for many households.
Know before you buy
Unlike traditional churn-style makers that freeze a liquid base while stirring, the CREAMi uses a specialized blade to shave and process a pre-frozen solid block. This technology allows for a much smoother, creamier texture, even with low-fat or dairy-free ingredients.
Yes, the pint tubs, lids, and the outer bowl are top-rack dishwasher safe. The processing blade should also be placed on the top rack for easy cleaning.
Absolutely. Because you control the base ingredients, the machine works perfectly with almond, oat, or soy milk, as well as sugar substitutes. It is an excellent tool for those managing specific dietary needs.
While the actual processing time takes only a few minutes, the base must be frozen solid for 24 hours before you can spin it. You will need to plan ahead by keeping a few prepped tubs in your freezer at all times.
The CREAMi Deluxe does make a significant amount of noise while it is shaving the frozen base, similar to a high-powered blender or food processor. This is normal due to the motor power required to process frozen ingredients.
The included family-size tubs hold 0.75 quarts each. This is larger than the standard CREAMi pints, allowing you to make bigger batches for sharing.
