Customer Ratings & Reviews

Just fill it with water and turn it on. It starts making very nice ice "rounds" until the basket is full. Then it stops. It also stops when it runs out of water in the reservoir. The only negative is the basket is not refrigerated and the ice begins to melt. So, you are either using ice from the basket and it makes more, or it's melting and making more. Either way it makes a steady supply of ice outside of your refrigerator.

Great countertop machine! I use it every day to make ice.

This ice maker is all about turning water into solid bricks for use in a variety of settings. It effectively receives water before the detailed, complex, flawless process within the exquisite device magically redistributed the water as a cold, cold brick. Quality magic making.

So far it works great. I love the quickness of it. It makes a lot of cubes. I store them in a food safe container in the freezer and we have enough for at least a week.

Great device. The device does the job or producing ice very well and very fast. The best part is that if you turn it off and the ice melts, the device when turned on will reuse that water to make ice again. The Frigidaire model that looks almost identical to this does not do this. Love it and would recommend the insignia.

This portable ice maker is the best item that I have purchased in a long time. It is very practical and saves money buying ice. Very easy to use and to clean. I would recommend it to everyone. Especially, at this time that we are dealing with the coronovirus. Thanks

This is my fourth portable ice machine and so far the best one. It kicks out ice so fast That I like the other ones I have to turn this off but if I forget there’s an auto shut off which I really like. The key to this is make sure you use distilled water only!

This is my 2nd one and I absolutely love it!! The first one died cause I ran it into the ground and lasted me about 2 years with constantly being on. 6 min and u have instant ice, I use purified water so they are the best tasting cubes u can make, better than any filter a fridge can create! If you love ice, then this is for you!!

My girlfriend enjoys this ice maker. For whatever reason she had to have this one but she's very glad that she has it and constantly uses it. So all in all I'd say this is a great item

This was great for making ice to put in my recirculating cooler after knee surgery. Because of the holes in the ice they melt pretty quickly in cocktails. It makes ice quickly and works great though.

It's easy to operate and produces more than enough ice.

This is pretty good portable ice machine. We use it for camping and works great. My only criticism is that when it scoops the ice into the holder the ice sticks and blocks the full sensor. So no more ice made when there’s plenty of room. It’s not a big deal bc it still makes a good amount and it’s fast.

This portable ice maker is a great addition to your refrigerator's ice make. It is great for parties when you need a lot of ice quickly. It is very easy to set up and use.

I really like the ice maker. It definitely works like it should and I would recommend it anyone. I saw it while browsing the website.

Excellent little ice maker, worked great for about a year non stop. Def get the protection plan. Probably better if you use filtered water in it, i'm pretty sure ours just got clogged.

Very good simple machine. A bit noisy when transferring ice to the basket, but no real problem. Several people who have seen it express interest in buying one for themselves. Bought on sale when home refrigerator had problems.

I've owned at least 4 of these bullet ice makers. This one is a little bit smaller, and offers only 2 sizes of ice: small or large. This also means it can produce less ice over a 24-hour period and holds less ice at any given time. Also, due to its smaller size, it's more difficult to clean the freezing prongs as there is simply very little room to get your hand back there. Otherwise, it carries over the same flaws as the other bullet-style ice makers: it can only hold more than a couple dozen cubes of ice at a time unless you're watching it. The design of these systems causes all the produced ice to stack up near where they dump and will trigger the "ice full" sensor long before the ice catch container is truly full. They're also not "loud" but they're far from quiet. You will not want to sit in the same room where you have this thing running. The ice is also "wet" and will melt VERY quickly if used immediately. It's best if you transfer the ice into your freezer and let it finish freezing for a couple of hours. However, since they're wet when you stick them into the freezer this ALSO means that those cubes are going to freeze to each other, requiring you to break them apart later. These units also tend to last between 8-9 months of consistent use. I'll try to update this review in another 7 months to report if it has held up longer. Unless you need the smaller size, at its regular price point I would pass and by a different brand that is larger. If you can catch it on sale, then it's a reasonable purchase amongst its competitors.

For the most part it is a good purchase. It is making a little noise at the end of making ice.

Great external ice maker after the ice maker Iin the Refrigerator of my rental home malfunctioned.would reccomend

I used it at a mini-scout camp and it was a hit. We had it outdoors and it made ice for 5 days in temperatures from 59 - 93 degrees F. If you leave running continuously, it really pimps out the ice. Hearing the cubes drop and then watching the arm scoop up the ice and move into the storage area is entertaining and therapeutic.
