Nice, lower profile vs other nugget ice makers.
Vaccaro202 Posted
It’s more low profile than most of the budget ice makers, so it fits in more places. All these things mostly use the same basic components, so otherwise, it’s not very different. It makes the “fancy ice “ though, so that’s all that matters.

Obsessed with the ice it makes
Isaac Posted
I absolutely love this ice machine, it makes ice so fast and it’s perfect for eating, it’s not to hard and has the perfect softness to chew on through out the day. I’m obsessed with it.

Don’t purchase
TristenL Posted
Taking this back tomorrow. I have had it over a month I have only used bottled Water and cleaned it multiple times following the directions. Today when I put ice in my cup I looked in the ice basket and there is a black residue. I have no idea where it has came from

Worth a try
Hanna Posted
We just reached a little over a year with this ice maker and now we have to say goodbye. Through pretty constant use with filtered water and normal cleaning, it finally tapped out. The issue appears to be the motor itself dying. Pros: -Plenty of ice for 2 people -Produces ice at a decent rate -Ice is a great consistency, definitely the “good ice” -Easy to clean -Not too loud Cons -Died a little over the year mark for us -Sometimes would get “stuck” during ice cycles and would cause a sound similar to a dying elk -Collects dust so cleaning can be frequent Overall, I’d recommend trying it, but probably opt for a warranty if you want it to last. I, unfortunately, did not.

I couldn’t be happier. This machine is far superior to the one I exchanged for it (which quite literally blew up). Perfect ice, produces quickly, clean cycle really does clean it. Only downfalls; I don’t understand why there is an on/off button. For that price I’d think that would make sense. And lastly it has this cheap rubber stopper on the bottom to drain. A better solution would have been something more durable. I can already see I’ll Need to replace this part. Other than that. We are pleased.

Ice maker
IRobot Posted
[Employee of bestbuy] I purchased this as a gift for my neice and she loves it. After cleaning it, she said it started making ice in 10 minutes. She loves the ice! She did say for a small machine it made some noise but nothing that she didn't like!

Bravo! to NewAir...
austinlady49 Posted
We've lived with this ice maker for three months now, and we absolutely love it. If you refill the water throughout the day to get an abundance of ice, as advertised! To be expected, it makes a bit of noise as it works, but you tune it out after a while. We're so grateful that NewAir figured out how to make this nugget machine, as we've watched previous manufacturers fail. Glad we waited to buy this one. Worth every penny!

Nexair pellet ice
Marktiss Posted
Works well. We enjoy the ice and makes it fairly quick. Just a little too loud when auger runs.

Works great for nugget ice
tdugie06 Posted
Machine makes very quick. Once full it stops until enough melts or is removed and starts back up. It is a tad loud when in use but not so loud you can’t hear people talk.

Best ice maker
RebeccaM Posted
Great product, couldn't be happier! It fills up completely with ice in about an hour - hour and a half, It's very quiet, and it's not too big so it's perfect for any counter space. I highly recommend this product

Great product!
AdrianaC Posted
Decided to purchased based on previous reviews. Great product. Only 2 cons i found so far is that the basket is kind of small and there is no on/off button. You have to unplug if you don't want the machine to run. I dont need the machine running at night. The noise is minimal, which is to be expected. But so far so good!

It makes perfect ice but its incredibly loud. The amount of ice it give might as well order the original nugget ice machine.

[Employee of bestbuy] This makes it to where I don't have to go to sonic or chick fil a for ice again. It's a little pricey, but it's worth it.

Little guy works hard for it’s money
LauraC Posted
Only giving 4 stars right now, since I just received this. So far so good, wish the bucket wasn’t so small, but it makes great ice. After having the GE Opal 2 (and returning it), I love the “Sonic” ice. The ice lasts so much longer than the bullet ice or regular ice cubes.

Great! But only worked for 4 months.
TheHonestReview Posted
Great! The ice was perfect, but it only worked for 4 months. It started making this horrible noise and then a few days later it stopped making ice.

AdrianIS Posted
Overall a great ice maker. It's a little louder than I expected it to be, but I've become used to it now. No other complaints about the device thus far.

Its a good machine.
JoseR Posted
This is a great little ice maker, it pumps out ice pretty quick, love that it doesnt need a water line and instead uses refillable tank. Easy controls. Onky wish it kept the ice frozen. It melts and gets remade into ice.
