    I love this machine compact easy to use and not loud at all. The 2 different size cubes is aplus. Cleaning is simple and pain free. Ice in 6 minutes. The only negative is the ice can be a little wet when you put it in a freezer and it freezes as one clump. But not a deal breaker. Just get a knife/ice pick and it breaks apart very easy.

    We had been wanting one of these for a while and I found it on Deal of the Day at a good discount. So I bought it. It produces ice pretty fast but we never used it long enough for the plastic taste to go completely away because a high end Insignia model went on sale on Deal of the Day that makes clear ice and we bought it and returned this one. Performance wise it runs pretty quiet and seems to be well made. Do be aware that with any type of ice machine like this that you must keep it clean or mold can grow inside of it over time. Especially if left off with water standing in it. This also applies to commercial ice machines as well. I know because I used to do commercial refrigeration and worked on them frequently. Icemakers in domestic refrigerators that are in the freezer section are exceptions to this rule. I think these are pretty good bang for the buck and do recommend from what time we had one. And yes, we do like the one that makes clear ice better. I'll be reviewing it next week.

    I have only used distilled water in this unit, which I recommend. It keeps the unit clean. Any other type of water will contaminate it. Even bottled water or good old Chicago tap water contains minerals , and other impurites that will cause problems. Keep the unit clean and you will have no problems. I like this ice maker.

    I waited over a year to actually review the ice maker. She’s still going and haven’t had a single issue. So very happy with this ice maker. The one in our fridge went out so we use this one exclusively. Pro tip: if you’re wanting to keep a large ice bin stocked just empty the ice basket into a gallon freezer bag. Stick it in the freezer. After 30min or so just pop the bag on the counter to break up the ice then dump it in your ice bin. (That’s what we do to use the ice dispenser on the freezer door) very important to use distilled water only!!!!!

    Handy, Clean, Quiet. Sterling Ice cubes in two sizes in about 5-7 minutes, Use bottled and distilled water for best results. Maybe add a small sqeeze of lemon. No tap water. Works well.

    An excellent ice maker that is amazingly quick at making ice, great for my iced coffees in am and very compact as fits nicely in my kitchen counter I really like the simple easy to follow instructions and the very handy ice collection bucket ! I have never purchased a stand alone ice maker as always depended on my refrigerator one, but I needed a small ice cube for certain drinks and this is a great choice !!

    I have had several portable ice machines different brands and they last for couple years then they break and I buy another one. I bought this particular one this time and so far I have to say it’s working great it makes ice a lot faster than any of the previous ones I had I would recommend this unit if you’re looking for a portable ice machine great size for your bar area or whatever camping whatever it may be.

    This icemaker is better than anticipated. It's quiet, consistent and takes care of business. The ice looks and tastes like quality, filtered ice. We keep ourselves stocked with fresh ice by making some every couple of days. Set up was easy and operation is beyond simple.

    Love the Insignia portable ice maker. I bought to use in the RV and it really takes care of the ice needs. Would recommend the Insignia ice maker to anyone that has a very small freezer and limited space to store ice. Great product.

    Making Ice Great Again

    This little unit impressed me! It makes ice pretty dang fast! So far so good after a few months. No issues yet, just make sure you clean it, yes it can be a pain but get creative with using dedicated toothbrushes ect no big deal! Bullet is on large setting is still small, the basket does not fill all the way and when you empty the basket since its bullet ice youll have alot of drippy ice and it sticks together easily when frozen. Also unless you transfer it to a real fridge or use a double wall insulated cup the ice will melt fast in drinks.

    This is an amazing product. Fairly quite, makes ice continually until full. When I first started it I was surprised as to how fast the ice was being made. Never with out ice now! Huge hit with the entire family!!

    Great except for SHARP EDGES on drain plug

    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    Love the icemaker (NOT THE PLUG). I always make the large cubes (which aren't really large). The ice is shaped like a bullet with a hole in the middle. The first batch of cubes always comes out flimsy but then the rest are great. I love the simplicity of this machine. Doesn't take up too much counter space. Fill with water. Hit start (I have large cubes selected) and that's it. Let the basket fill up and then empty the basket when it is full and the machine just keeps going until it is out of water (then you get a red light saying the water is low). I am totally disappointed about the drain plug at the bottom of the ice maker. It is IMPOSSIBLE for me to pull that plug out in order to drain the water when I am done making the ice (you wont' want the water to sit in there). The TINY PLUG is very hard on fingers, and the SHARP EDGES TO GRAB ON THE PLUG ARE TOO SMALL even for my small fingers. It's too bad, but since it is such a silly thing for them to have not make a better plug that you could easily release, I am deducting one star. Jeepers... it's so ridiculous.

    This is a wonderful ice maker. We use this for parties and for it being compact ice maker it really does a great job. It is easy to just put the water in and let it do its magic of making ice cubes. It will Indicate when the bucket is full. We are very pleased with this purchase.
