Probably 5 - 10 minutes to first batch, depending on air temp and then another batch every 5 minutes or so. Makes 9 cubes per cycle.

The size of the first batch in a single cycle is one cup and that takes roughly 5-7 mins. I know at first you expect a lot, but in the long run, you'll have so much you don't know what to do with.

Depending on how much you use it actually cranks it out pretty quickly. It will drop 9 cubes every 4-6 minutes and will continue until the bin is full. if you knock them down to level it will make another batch or 2 and then hold it until it melts down and drops below the fill line. I bought this about 3 weeks ago because we were having company over Memorial Day and I kept it running the entire weekend and we never ran out of ice. I added water maybe 2 times. I seen it for the first time at my uncles memorial service and was amazed with it, I decided right them I would buy one as soon as I made it back home. I am not disappointed at all with it and I use it daily.

It's about 6-7 minutes for the first drop of ice. Each batch is about 3/4 of a tumbler glass of ice.

About 8-9 minutes from on to first batch. Makes enough for an average 16 oz drink in the south.

Ice is produced in less than 5 minutes. You can select small or large cubes. A batch filled a quart plastic storage bag. Love it!

dtrump · Answer

about 7 or 8 minutes for 1st bunch of cubes. After the 1st cycle it drops to probably 5 minutes or less. It makes I think about 9 or 11 cubes / cycle. I work with about 25 people in a warm environment and we go through the ice. This unit more than keeps up with us. We have to turn it off a few times each day. We love it.

I think it makes 10 or 12 cubes at a time. I haven't timed it but I believe the cycle time is about 6 minutes for small cubes

Sunshinediva · Answer

It takes about 20-30 minutes for a full cycle. Total in cubes is about 54 per cycle.

I believe 1 to 2 pounds. Almost immediately
