Every season, a new product comes onto the scene and renders all other household cleaners, decor items, or countertop appliances in its category virtually irrelevant. Although Ninja’s CREAMi ice cream maker isn’t new, per se, it’s been having a moment ever since spring rounded the corner. Our own editors are huge fans, using it to concoct perfect homemade ice cream all summer long. And now, you can, too — for way less! The CREAMi is currently 13% off as a Prime Day deal.

Not only is it great for people who struggle to find their favorite ice cream flavors in-store, but the machine also allows those with dietary restrictions to enjoy sweet frozen treats of almost every variety. The best part is, the CREAMi is so easy to use. But don’t take our word for it; we recommend adding one to your Prime Day cart ASAP to see what all the hype is about firsthand. It’s a purchase you’ll be able to enjoy well beyond summer.

What is the Ninja CREAMi Ice Cream Maker?

Not to brag, but we were fans of the CREAMi long before it went viral on social media. Commerce editor Britt has had one in her kitchen since 2022 and describes it as the “ultimate summer companion.” In addition to ice cream, the CREAMi whips up sorbets, milkshakes, and more at the press of a button thanks to its seven one-touch programs. All you have to do is prepare your ice cream mixture and freeze the base in advance. You can create your own unique flavors and add mix-ins that you can’t find at the store.

“I can prepare any of my favorite flavors ahead of time, store them in the freezer, and pop them out whenever an ice cream craving hits,” Britt wrote in her review. “The Ninja CREAMi makes refreshing ice cream in under five minutes, which is so much better than my old-fashioned ice cream maker! I also love that I can even make dairy-free sorbets because I always have fruit juice on hand.” Additionally, the included recipe guide shows you how to use swaps to fit dietary constraints and take advantage of ingredients you might already have lying around the house.

What Amazon Reviewers Are Saying

Average Rating: 4.5/5

“Saw this in action when friends invited us to dinner at their home. Bought ours on the drive home. We have not purchased commercially produced ice cream since it arrived. Took us a while to find and tweak our favorite flavors, but we’ve got a freezer full now and have fun creating requests for friends and family.” — Cheryl

“This is so worth the splurge. I’ve been making ice cream every evening. Low carb, low sugar, low calories or just regular for the kids! I’ve even made ice cream using cottage cheese!!” — Charlotte

“I purchased this to make ice cream for my child who can’t have dairy. A pint of dairy-free ice cream where I live generally costs about $5. I can make a full 24-oz. container of ice cream for less than that. It also widens the variety of ice cream/frozen treats available to him… I recommend this product to anyone who has any dietary restrictions that enjoys ice cream/frozen treats.” — Jessica

Shoppers also note that the CREAMi is loud, but considering how quickly it produces ice cream, you won’t have to bear the noise for too long. This is one of the lowest prices we’ve seen it sell for, so you’ll definitely want to snag yours while the Prime Day deal is still live.
