    First I have to amit, I didn't really think this would keep up with a party of 4 having cocktails, but it did after completing the first round. We just filled it full of water and it ran the whole evening without lack of ice. It's now a standard addition to my RV when we travel. Even with a planned event with a group we just start it early and store some in the freezer for getting the first rush out of the way. It's so simple to operate and the removal ice bucket is great. I did give it a 5 stars but have to say something about the fan noise. Don't get me wrong. It's not really bad but it is noticeable. The great price dose makes it seem quite thought. I'll say is well worth it for a quick bar setup for an unscheduled visit of some good friends or just the get together with your special squeeze for a quite night.

    I love this ice machine. Years ago I bought one online and it ended up being absolutely huge - far too huge for a simple home ice machine. Therefore I never used it. This one is perfect for our family. Easy to use, just enough ice and doesn't take up too much space.

    Since my ice maker on my fridge went out, this portable ice maker has been a godsend. I can make large or small cubes in minimal time. The auto shut off makes it great for those days i forget i have it making ice. I can make an entire tray bin of ice within the hour. I would recommend this to anyone on a budget and does not want to run out to purchase bags of ice on a regular. Perfect for the space and has a nice option of colors to choose from.

    This is our 2nd one, they last a lot longer than all the other brands we've tried. 2 1/2 years versus 1 year or less. The extended warranty is the best! I highly reccomend to purchase the 4 year warranty. We don't have an ice maker in our fridge, we have it next to it. I only drink ice water, it's great to have fresh ice all day long. They are all noisy, this one is less noisy than other brands we've tried.

    This a a great little machine! Provides both large and small round cubes that seem to last longer than cubes made by my refrigerator ice maker. It runs quiet and simple to operate and clean after use. I would purchase this machine again!

    Great ice maker, its fast, easy to use and not huge and bulky. I would give it five stars if it would keep the ice frozen after its made, if it stays in yhere, it will eventually start to melt again.

    Works great. I follow another reviewer's tip of letting the first few cycles of ice fall directly into the water reservoir so it makes the ice faster. The only downside to this product is that there's no "minimum" fill line. Eventually, it'll automatically stop making ice even though there's still water in the compartment. I mostly use it to make ice that I store in a reusable silicone zip lock bag in the freezer and I pour the left over ice/water (that was not enough to make any more ice) into an 8-12 oz cup to drink.

      Hi there! Glad to hear you’re satisfied with it. A quick and easy ice maker is always a great addition, even if the capacity is on the smaller side. Sounds like it’s doing exactly what you need. |Angelica| Insignia Products| BBY-ExBrand_Insignia

    Bought this to replace the ice maker that broke in my fridge and I'm pleasantly surprised at how well it works. This thing runs 24/7 in my house and does well enough. It creates ice pretty quickly, and continues making ice until the ice bucket is full. It has an indicator for low water and ice full so you know why its not making ice if it isn't. There are two options for ice cube size, big and small, and really you should probably be just sticking to big as the little ones melt extremely fast, which brings me to my complaints on this. First, the tempurature doesn't get low enough. It makes ice sure, but the ice temperature is so low that they almost instantly melt as soon as they meet water. If it was a few degrees cooler I believe they would last longer. The ice bucket could be deeper, one ice bucket is enough to fill my water bottle and thats it. And a nice plus would be an external water jug, keeping you from refilling as often. It does make about 3 buckets of ice per fill up, but more would be appreciated. Overall a pretty solid ice maker for the price.

    Purchased to use in our motor home. Is the perfect size to not take up a lot of room. Made plenty of ice to keep the 4 of us supplied for the entire trip. And you could barely hear it when it dropped the ice.

    This is the easiest to use ice maker, when you need more ice than your refrigerator ice maker can support. Just pout water in and hit the on button. Ice is made fast and the maker is easy to clean. Love it.

    Honestly, perfect for our space. We have a small kitchen and the fridge doesn't' have an ice maker. This can sit on the corner of our counter and we use it 1-2 times a week to fill up a bucket in our fridge. I would recommend draining any water you don't use after you get the amount of ice you want. The option to choose the size of the ice is really nice.

    Dont let the abrand name fool you, this is a best buy brand and it works wonders. It has two different options of size of ice, small and big. Also its very easy to clean. I personally cant go without ice in this heat wave of a Summer but having this is amazing. Also it makes ice is less than 5 minutes. When you first buy it make sure you drain out the first two bat hes of ufe it makes just so the ice doenst taste funky.
