I purchased the 8 qt. Immergood ice cream maker and have been very pleased with it.
I evaluated several other options but this one was by far the best constructed unit available.
When deciding which model to purchase I realized you can always make a smaller batch in the 8qt machine but you can't make a larger batch in the smaller ones.
So far we have made several ice creams as well as sherbet and an Italian Ice.
If you want to go beyond plain vanilla I recommend THE ICE CREAM BOOK by Louis P. De Gouy originally published in 1938 this is the definitive book on ice-cream made by hand.
Hi James, thanks so much for taking a few minutes out of your day to write an accurate review. We enjoy hearing from our customers. I like you book suggestion. I will have to get the book to inspire new ideas!
I have two of these and have put 130 broilers in each this first year. This is the best tractor!!! I intend to install doors on both ends for next year so my birds can free-range...but for this year they worked fantastic. I'm 5'8" and female and have no problem moving these tractors 1-2 x a day. We have sloped terrain with little bumps here and there...so sometimes I'm going uphill! And I go the length of the property (22 acres) and then turn the thing around and go back!! You just do small turns each day and you can do a complete 180 without stressing the birds.... no problem. I'm a huge fan and highly recommend them. The water tank, the heavy-duty tarp, the Plasson waterers, the tray feeders...this is just the smartest set up!! I can jump in and out of these tractors quite easily, too, so I can check on my birds and clean the waterers, etc. Amazing design!!
We appreciate your feedback Sarah. Superior has spent a lot of time with testing in real-life, live bird setups. We are glad to hear the testing and agonizing over details has led to a great experience for you. Even though you are not next door, it is great hearing from you. Thanks again.
I'm really happy with these feeders!! I also use a Kuhl feeder to keep chores minimal but I love these feeders. Very easy for the chickens and geese to use and easy to change the heights as they grow. Very happy with the simple and effective design. There's a reason they're called Superior Poultry products! You can believe the hype!
Hi Sarah, thanks for the note. Superior Poultry works hard at building products for the birds, not just following other peoples examples.
Seriously, geese are RIDICULOUS!! Much like pigs, you give them a little bit of water...and they go nuts!! But they lay such amazing eggs and protect my hens from hawks and owls. I adore my funny geese. I keep 6-8 geese in each one of my 10x12 alumni-coops and they use these waterers successfully. Geese do not use all waterers successfully!! Every morning I use a hose on "jet" or "stream" spray and just spray out the cups because you know the geese have spent the evening mixing their perfect concoction of mud water!! But these waterers are wonderful and although they shouldn't be used in freezing temps... I highly recommend them the rest of the year!!! Such an elegant and simple design. You can even install them on the outside of the coop and put the cups through the wire on the inside of the tractors. Just a fantastic product. I'll attach a photo soon!!
Sound like you have a great idea of placing geese with the hens. Thanks for sharing how the waterers work for you. That is helpful to the folks design the products and other users as well. Thanks Sarah for helping the pastured poultry community!
I purchased these tractors for my small organic egg and meat farm. Wendell worked so hard to answer all my questions, get me exactly what I wanted to purchase, AND help me get the most affordable freight since I'm on the West Coast. I shopped around. There are other distributors of these coops and some copy-cats. But NO ONE will work as hard for you as Wendell and Home Place Market! I'm in Oregon and I've had so many people come over and ask me to look at these coops. They are getting a lot of attention!! But who cares about that... they work AMAZINGLY WELL! And they're made of super high quality components. My dad and grandfather had fastener companies. I appreciate things that are well-made. Also, I'm not very handy and can't be fixing things every day. I need infrastructure that works hard for me and I don't have to do a lot of maintenance. I want to enjoy the birds and not be worried about their homes! We have really intense predator pressure. These tractors, Premier 1 electric netting, and my wonderful dogs have meant that my beautiful birds are SAFE from predators. This peace of mind is priceless. I'm so grateful and happy to tell anyone who has questions about my experiences with these tractors and the unbeatable customer service at Home Place Market. As soon as I finalize my website, I'll include that for more photos! Thank you Wendell!!!
Hello Sarah, I want to say thanks to you as well for being a great customer. We get our fulfillment from being a blessing to our customers - near or far. Thanks for taking the time to share your thorough review. This is appreciated by us as well as the folks in shop that build the coops and try to pay attention to detail.
Shipping these large coops is no small task. Since it is something we specialize in, we learn over time what works best for safe arrival, best carriers, and best prices. Although these large coops do not ship in a cute UPS box, we feel they are worth building a pallet for and shipping across the country. I am glad were able to get you a very good price for your coops.
I am looking forward to seeing more of your farm on your website!
