SAVE $60: The Ninja Creami ice cream maker that comes with one 1-pint container is on sale for just $139.99 as an April 26 Deal of the Day on Amazon. It typically retails for $199.99, so you'll be saving 30%.

Whipping up your own ice cream at home has come a long way since rolling a plastic ball around on the floor for 30 minutes. Take the Ninja Creami, a countertop gadget from the people behind your favorite air-frying pressure cooker: It's capable of making ice creams, gelatos, sorbets, and milkshakes out of almost any base (think almond milk, fruits, and coffee), letting you take total control of the ingredients in your frozen treats – a great option for anyone trying to eat healthier or steer clear of dairy.

No need to wait until summer to indulge: Amazon has an April 26 Deal of the Day that slashes the price of a matte black Creami with one 1-pint container. (The standard silver version comes with two.) It's usually listed for $199.99, but you can snag it on sale for just $139.99. That's a 30% savings and its lowest price to date.

Making something with the Creami does require a little prep work; you'll need to fill its container with the base of your choice and freeze it solid before popping it into the machine. But once that's ready, the Creami will take mere minutes to finely shave and churn it into the treat of your choice — take your pick from one-touch programs for regular ice cream, lite ice cream, sorbert, gelato, milkshakes, smoothie bowls, and "mix-in." (The latter will incorporate extras like nuts, candy, and fruit chunks if you want to play around with different textures and flavors. Be sure to check out the included recipe guide for inspo.)

The real clincher is that cleaning the Creami takes basically no effort on your part: Its container, lid, paddle are all safe to toss on the top rack of your dishwasher.
