Cuisinart ICE100BCU - 1.5-Quart Compressor Ice Cream Maker
Published on 09/09/2026 at 12:44 | Editorial responsibility: Rafael Müller, Editor-in-Chief AD HOC NEWS
Cuisinart ICE100BCU brings a built-in compressor to a 1.5-quart ice cream and gelato maker, with a 150 W motor and a 10-minute keep-cool function. The stainless steel machine is sold in the US as ICE-100 and includes an ice cream paddle and a gelato paddle.
Compressor Design And Capacity
Best Buy says the machine makes 1.5 quarts at a time and uses compressor-freezer technology, while the product page also points to touchpad controls and auto shut-off. The same listing describes the unit as an ice cream and gelato maker in stainless steel.
Klarna's US listing shows the ICE100BCU with a built-in compressor, timer, display, removable bowl, and 0.4 gal capacity. It also lists 150 W power, plus 11.4-inch width, 22.0-inch depth, and 9.1-inch height.
What's Included
Best Buy lists two paddles in the box: one for ice cream and one for gelato. The same page says the keep-cool feature holds frozen treats cold for 10 minutes after churning ends.
The model name on the US retailer page is Cuisinart 1.5qt Stainless Steel Ice Cream and Gelato Maker - ICE-100, which matches the ICE100BCU designation used by price-comparison listings.
Price And Market Position
Target lists the Cuisinart 1.5qt Stainless Steel Ice Cream and Gelato Maker - ICE-100 at $379.99 as of 09/09/2026. Klarna's US comparison page shows the same $379.99 price for ICE100BCU.
Compared with the countertop freezer-bowl approach, the compressor setup removes the need to pre-freeze the bowl. That puts this model in the higher-priced end of the home ice cream maker shelf.
Bottom Line For Shoppers
Cuisinart ICE100BCU fits cooks who want a compressor machine with a 1.5-quart batch size, two paddles, and a keep-cool cycle. The footprint is substantial, and the price sits well above basic frozen-bowl makers.
