Quiet and fast, and it makes the good ice. Wonderful machine

Affordable, cylindrical ice. I happened to score this while it was on sale, and it's awesome! If you're an apartment dweller or don't have an ice maker hookup for your refrigerator, this definitely belongs on your countertop so you can have ice any time without the mess of ice cube trays. Tip: Get a small command hook and drill a hole in the included scoop, then hang the scoop on the side of the machine so you always have the scoop close at hand.

I’m really happy to have gotten this because I don’t have an ice maker in my fridge. I love how quickly ice is made. The machine itself looks very nice and well made. It is also relatively quite when making ice. I’m disappointed at the size of the ice cubes that are made. The “large” ice cubes are rather small. I also wish that the machine kept the ice cold so that they did not melt after they are made. Overall a good ice machine that does what you need it to do.

Awesome machine, very easy to use. Makes ice very quickly. Very quiet, glad I bought it.

I very please with my ice maker it’s very convinced for me it’s small not to big and it works great

Still works and love the little ice. Can't complain simple as that

Love it. I ise it every day multiple times a day. Awsome for a household that has no ice machine

Great for last minute party. I thought the ice would have been much bigger. However, it produced a lot of ice and I was able to put the ice in zip lock bags. The ice maker is easy-to-use and it shuts off automatically. I thought it would be used for events only. I have used it several times after my event and it's a part of my daily routine. I purchased it online and it was ready within the time frame I was told. I am truly happy with the ice maker.

makes ice so fast , senses low water and when ice is full. this is the second ice maker different brands ..this one is the best. easy to clean

Work fine, makes ice pretty quickly. Fits on counter top, does not take up a lot of space or make a lot of noise.

Not loud at all. Makes ice in a timely manner. Small size fits perfectly in swell bottle. All the things you could ask for in an ice maker.

Great little ice maker, that quickly makes 2 sizes of little tiny ice cubes! Transfer ice cubes to your freezer to keep from melting, this ice maker does not keep cubes frozen. This unit is not totally silent, but is not very loud either, noise level is similar to the ice maker in your freezer. The unit is not very large and can easily sit out on a kitchen counter. The ice maker could be portable as long as there is electricity and water. Great little ice maker for the money.

Great amazing awesome perfect so easy to use and fills up fast

Works great, compact and quiet. Simple to operate, just plug in, add water and 6 minutes later the first batch comes out.

Great ice makes it does take around 30 minutes to make ice is quite and easy to work with

For the money, the Insignia 26-Lb. Portable Ice Maker with Auto Shut-Off makes quite a lot of ice in a short period of time. Our Samsung refrigerator's ice maker is a known bad piece of - uhm - engineering, and plastic ice trays are a pain. We could have spent a lot more for a few extra features, but there is not a problem with making ice as long as you stay attentive. The unit is not a freezer, and when a round of 9 ice cubes dump, they fall into a basket where they will melt if left too long. The water reservoir is sufficient for several rounds of ice. The ice is shaped liked tiny Asian teacups. One day of running (and emptying after 4-5 rounds) will fill our large ice container in the freezer. Have an ice pick handy, because the melting ice refreezes once stored away in the freezer forming large lumps of tumbled tiny teacups. The bottom drain plug is a good feature. Auto shut-off for full ice basket or low water level are also good features.

Recieved a defective one that roared loudly while making ice (white model), and Best Buy’s customer service worked wonders in making sure we were taken care of! We went in for an exchange, but the white model was completely sold out and out of stock in-store and online, so they exchanged it for the more expensive (silver) model without hesitation for us! We were pleased to just have a working machine, but in awe by their willingness to make sure we did not leave the store without one. Thank you, Best Buy! You guys are awesome! The machine works perfectly with a peaceful hum to let you know it is creating the perfect cubes you desire, small or large! The machine also knows when to stop, wether by a full ice trey or a low water level, while also letting you know. The machine is awesome! The machine and BB’s customer service get the job done!

We lost our ice maker in the refrigerator about 3 years ago. I missed having ice and finally decided to buy a countertop unit. I read the reviews and in my 6 weeks of ownership my experience is about the same. The unit makes ice quite rapidly and it is true that it will not keep ice, only make it. It is reasonably quiet and easy to store. So far I am glad I bought it and it is serving us well.

I love this ice machine. It is very quiet. It makes just enough ice for me. It doesn't take up very much counter space

I’ve been wanting an ice maker for so long!! I purchased online & did curbside pick-up. The service was excellent! No contact at all! I brought it home unboxed it and set it up! Very easy btw! Cleaned out the necessary trays and maker itself. Added filtered water to clean the water system. Threw out the first bucket of ice then started with a fresh set after! Once you add water after a few minutes you’ll have ice in the bucket! I love the little ring ice! It’s so cute! I will definitely purchase again!
