Rent or buy a soft serve machine?

Many people look for a soft serve machine to rent. We do not rent out machines; here is honestly why, and how you can still start small.

Nissei Compact, the small countertop machine

In short

For a single event day, renting can fit. If you sell soft serve for a whole season or longer, your own machine is usually the better choice: it is matched to your site, your team knows it, and hygiene and cleaning are in your hands. We sell machines and help you start with a small model.

What renting often lacks

  • The machine suits the rental company, not necessarily your site
  • Your team gets to know a different machine each time
  • You do not know exactly how the machine was cleaned and maintained before
  • What you put into rent does not belong to you in the end

When buying pays off

  • You sell for a whole season or all year
  • You want consistent quality and a machine your team knows
  • You want to decide on cleaning and hygiene yourself

Start small

You do not have to start with the biggest machine. According to Nissei, a countertop machine like the Nissei Compact needs only 29 cm of width and fits next to the coffee machine. With ready mixes you do not need an ice cream lab. As demand grows, your equipment grows with it.
