This Ice Cream Chiller does exactly what it promises: it keeps every scoop frozen whether I'm storing a full pint or filling it directly for serving. I've taken it to BBQs and park hangs and the ice cream stayed firm without melting. Movie nights at home are better too since I can scoop straight from it. It's simple and works well for beach days and gatherings. Only giving four stars because it's a bit bulky, but for the purpose it's great.
