Easy, quick and delicious

Reviewed in the United States on May 13, 2024

I was skeptical as I have purchased so many ice cream makers that claim to be quick and able to make healthy choices from fruits only to come out as a thin shake consistency at best. I needed to break my nightly ice cream habit when my waist really started to grow. I stumbled across this and due to the inexpensive price tag, I decided to give it a try. I used for the first time today and I am beside myself! It was fast, easy and delicious!! The cleanup was so easy and quick too. I cannot wait to try more recipes but knowing that I can still have my ice cream is the best news I’ve had in a while. It was so creamy and so good. Actually tasted better than my fattening ice cream maybe because it is guilt-free. No sugar or milk was added nor needed. Frozen Bananas and berries, that was it! Took me less than 15 minutes to whip up a bowl which included 7 minutes to let thaw a little. PERFECTION!!!

My favorite purchase this yer

This makes the absolutely most delicious dessert and snack. I LOVE the Yonana!. Took a bit of experimenting but I discovered that you have to be careful to get the right bananas, freeze them at the right time, thaw them for the right amount of time. All of the details are included in the instructions, just be sure to follow them carefully to get your treat to come out right. Super fun and healthy fruit dessert. Easy to clean - just disassemble and throw a few plastic parts in the dishwasher and use it again the next day.

Not 100% sold but happy enough that I bought it

Reviewed in the United States on February 25, 2012

I was telling a couple of the girls at work yesterday about how I'd gotten a Yonana and how eager I was to try it. One of the other girls comes up and says, "You ordered a Yonana?" I said yes, thinking she was going to tell me wonderful things about it. Instead, she said she'd had one, that she hated it, and recommended that I immediately pack it up and ship it back without trying it. She claimed it was noisy and difficult to clean. She recommended getting a Ninja instead and said a Ninja is more versatile, but then she went on to say that she has to add liquid to her fruit, which defeats the purpose for why I'd ordered the Yonana in the first place. I'm on Weight Watchers, and I'd ordered the Yonana because all you need is fruit and fruit is zero points on Weight Watchers. What's not to love about "free" food? My co-worker also complained about needing to use two bananas for the Yonana and said that bananas are too high in carbs. High in carbs or not, bananas still count as "free" food on Weight Watchers and, contrary to what my co-worker said, you do not need to use two bananas nor do you need to use any bananas. So, being the stubborn person that I am, I decided not to take my co-worker's advice.

Last night I got to try the Yonana. My assessment...it is noisy. So noisy that it should be packed up and shipped back? No. It's no more noisy than my blender or my son's juicer. And it is not difficult to clean. Not in the least little bit. In fact, I was a bit wary of the blades on the blade cone because they looked a bit evil, like they could scrape up a knuckle without a second thought - but the blades actually ended up being very easy to clean off. You can actually just run the parts under water and rinse them off, it cleaned up that easily. If my co-worker wants to see difficult to clean, she can borrow my son's juicer, which requires scrubbing with a toothbrush to get all the pulp out.

I'd read some reviews on the Ninja and one of the reviews complained that the Ninja is a pain when you want to add additional ingredients because you have to take off the motor and take off a lid and there was another step that I don't remember. My co-worker agreed that you do need to do all that, but she poo-pooed that review as saying that's really not an issue. Well, I can't vouch for the Ninja, but I can say that adding fruit to the Yonana is very easy. You just pull out the plunger (which you can get a little bit of suction there) and pop in the fruit and then plunge away.

Creating the "ice cream" is very quick. I mean, very quick! In less time than it takes to dig frozen real ice cream out of a tub, you can have a Yonana treat. (Well, okay, that might not be totally true as you do need to thaw your frozen fruit first...but take the thawing part out of the equation, you can have the Yonana treat more quickly than real ice cream and without the cussing and swearing.)

There is no waste in ingredients with the Yonana. I am always astounded by my son's juicer at how much wasted product is left over. With the Yonana, you get to eat every bit of what goes into it. You will want to disassemble the unit right away, however, because you will find that some edible "ice cream" remains between the blade cover and the blade cone and some in the gasket too, but that's very easy to scrape out, put in the bowl, and enjoy. I did notice that it seems that the first bowl of Yonana gets cheated out of some of their treat and subsequent bowls seem to be more filled. I'm not sure what the reason for that is as it didn't appear that there was fruit left in the plunger. Maybe it's the amount of fruit that remains between the cone cover and blade cone? I don't know, but a solution is to make one big batch and then separate it into portions.

The unit is much smaller than I'd expected it to be. It takes up less room than a toaster or a traditional blender or my son's gigantic juicer. It is tall, however. But if you leave it out on a countertop, height isn't an issue. It's the footprint that would be an issue.

One thing I discovered that I don't really like about the design of the Yonana is that the spout the "ice cream" comes out is too close to the unit and sometimes the "ice cream" wants to curl back toward the unit and not into your bowl, even though I had the bowl pushed up next to the machine. A simple fix would be for the Yonana designer to make a longer spout. Next Yonana generation maybe. In the meantime, the user can use a higher bowl, or maybe a glass?

Overall, am I 100% sold on Yonana? No. I wish I could say I am, but, after tasting my first creation, I think I'd rather just eat the fruit. The concoction does not taste like ice cream - it does, however, have the texture of soft serve ice cream. Oddly, my son, who drank a full 12 ounce glass of grainy juiced carrots without complaint made faces as he ate his banana/peach Yonana. He did eat it all, but I don't think he's going to be asking me to make him another Yonana treat. As for me, I do not like bananas, at all, and a few areas of my banana/berry tasted way too much like banana. (And, yes, I know, you do not need to use the bananas. I made my Yonana treat using just one banana, one half before the berries and one half after.) Am I going to ship my Yonana back? No. I'm going to give it more of a try. First off, a lot of the reviews and the Yonana owner's manual/recipe books all say to use ripe bananas. I didn't have ripe bananas. I just froze the bananas that were the most banged up looking and they really weren't all that ripe. So I'm hoping that bananas that are truly ripe and not simply banged up will make a difference. Also, I intend to give it a try using just fruit without the bananas. I am also hoping that in time I will move beyond the desire for my concoctions to be ice cream and that I'll just be happy that I'm having a Weight Watchers zero point treat. My husband also said that he thinks the Yonana will be a nice cold treat come summer when it's hot.

So, do I recommend the Yonana? Yes, I do. In fact, despite my not being sold on the taste of my first creation, I do intend on sharing my Yonana experience with my Weight Watchers group as well as my friends. Like a few of the reviews said, if you want ice cream, go buy ice cream. If you want a good, healthy, zero point treat, then, by all means, get a Yonana. It's a good machine that does exactly what it's meant to do.

Follow up - I tried again and used just a berry mix (strawberries, raspberries, blueberries, and blackberries) and four slices of peaches (no bananas). Very good. Even better, I mixed in a container of blueberry Fiber One yogurt (just one Weight Watchers point). Now, that was a good mixture that I can easily eat multiple times. It is runny, like soft serve ice cream that's melted, but, boy did it taste good.

Great little sorbet/soft serve maker!

Reviewed in the United States on September 8, 2024

We just ordered this little sorbet/soft serve maker, and we LOVE it! It is so easy to use and clean, and the sorbet is perfect! You can buy your own fresh fruit and freeze it or you can buy bagged frozen fruit. We've done a combo of both. Just place the frozen fruit (slightly thawed per the instructions) in the chute, turn it on, and out comes the sorbet. It has the perfect texture and is so refreshing! If you use frozen bananas, the outcome mimics soft serve ice cream. You can mix in other fruit with the bananas or add in things like choc chips or cookies to change up the flavor. It really is delicious!

Healthy frozen treats

Reviewed in the United States on October 7, 2024

Healthy alternative to ice cream and gets your extra servings of fruit in. Easy to use. Have to figure out how long to thaw fruit first, but once you get it down, the process is simple. Totally disassembles for easy cleaning and easy to re-assemble. Love all of the possibilities!!

Beware the cheap glue

Reviewed in the United States on July 2, 2024

This product does what it claims to do. It makes fruit into slightly the consistency of ice cream. You have to eat it quickly or that consistency goes away but it does what it claims to do. Also, It’s very loud so don’t plan on treating yourself after you successfully get the baby to sleep, unless you wanna do it all over again. It’s easy enough to put together and take apart but if you plan to follow the instructions and clean it in the dishwasher do it at your own risk. I didn’t realize the little logo sticker had fallen off in my dishwasher, I just saw that it wasn’t draining water. I went through all of the normal trouble shooting such as checking the drain for debris, following the line back to the sink, etc. I pulled it out from the wall to see if there was something up with the pump. Come to find out my dram hose tapers down from the drain so that where the hose is connected it’s the perfect size for that little rubber sticker to fit and tapers down so that it’s just the perfect size for it NOT to fit through the rest of the hose. On the plus side, I didn’t have to buy a new dishwasher. Then again if I had never bought this thing I would have never thought that I needed to.
