Our take on the Nostalgia Electric 2 Qt. Ice Cream Maker

The Nostalgia Electric 2 Qt. Ice Cream Maker is a frozen-bowl machine: you freeze the double-walled bowl overnight, add your mix, and a motor turns the paddle until the ice cream sets. It makes up to 2 quarts per batch and handles frozen fruit for sorbet and fruit-blended bases. The best new price is $39.99 at Home Depot as of November 4, 2026, with 6 stores listing it new. That is near the low end for a 2-quart automatic frozen-bowl maker, so the price is reasonable rather than a standout deal.

Cons
  • Bowl must be frozen 12 to 24 hours before each batch

Questions and answers

Is it worth it over a hand-crank ice-and-salt maker?
Yes if you want convenience: no ice or salt and no cranking. A rock-salt maker can produce a firmer set and lets you churn batch after batch, but it takes more work and space.
How long does the bowl need in the freezer?
Plan on 12 to 24 hours at 0°F or below. The bowl must be frozen solid; a partly frozen bowl gives soft, soupy results.
Can I make more than one batch in a row?
No. The bowl absorbs the cold for one batch, then needs to refreeze, so back-to-back batches mean waiting a day or owning a second bowl.
Does it make hard ice cream?
It makes soft-serve consistency. Transfer the batch to a lidded container and freeze 2 to 4 hours for scoopable ice cream.
What's in the box?
The motor base, the 2-quart double-walled freezer bowl, the paddle, and a lid, plus instructions and recipes.
When is it cheapest?
Frozen-bowl makers tend to dip outside summer, in fall and winter. The current $39.99 at Home Depot as of November 4, 2026 is already near the low end for this size.
Where is the Nostalgia Electric 2 Qt. Ice Cream Maker cheapest?
At Home Depot, for $39.99, as of our latest check.
