The pacojet is way expensive, also, the pacojet patents runned off and now there exists way cheaper alternatives that work in the same way. Check out the NinjaCream.
I did but I really want the pacojet :)
Why? Not challenging, just wondering what the pacojet does that other machines can't
Just reading a quick review of the Ninja Creamy, the Pacojet can run without putting chunks of plastic in your ice cream.
"In early 2023, a moderator in the Ninja Creami Community Facebook group introduced a new rule: No more posts about the plastic issue, lest they clog up the group."
Yeah that seems bad lol. I feel like there has to be an option in between $200(creami) and $7000(pacojet) that can avoid chunks of plastic though
Oh. That's concerning. ๐
Lol, what? My mother bought that stupid ninja thing. Now my kids are going to be fed even more plastic?
I have no idea how safe it is; from a health perspective, but it doesn't sound appetizing to me.
Here's the review in question, so you can be a little more informed: https://www.nytimes.com/wirecutter/blog/ninja-creami-ice-cream-maker-review/
