Customer Ratings & Reviews

This is a fantastic ice maker! Our refrigerator ice maker hasnt been making as much ice. Bought this cute ice maker which can make up to 9lbs of ice in a day! Doesnt take up too much counter space either. This was definitely a great purchase!

I’m really happy with this purchase! It works quickly and efficiently, which is exactly what I was looking for. Super easy to take care of—minimal maintenance—and I love how simple it is to store away when I’m not using it. Perfect for anyone who wants something reliable without the hassle. Highly recommend!

This is the most honest review I can make. I’ve now had this unit for six months and I didn’t realize how much ice my family consumed. Ideally it’s enough ice for three large glasses at a time. It makes ice very quickly every eight minutes. The biggest problem and the reason why I have to give it four stars – Because I can’t give a 4 1/2- is that the ice slides at an angle into the holding tray. I’m not sure that there’s an engineering solution here due to the water tank being underneath the ice tray. Because the ice slides at an angle you only get enough for two glasses of ice unless you systematically shuffle the ice around two or three times a day with your scooper. The laser sensor is often blocked by the ice sliding into that tray. If you have a family of 4 to 6 people that consume a large amount of ice….I would probably get a larger unit that has a larger ice hopper compartment. I might actually go and get a larger unit myself and my kids will probably love me if I hand them this unit. The ice -in the large form -is the size of a thimble. Easy to suck on won’t damage your teeth and is a little soft. The unit is not refrigerated so the ice continually melts inside the tray back into the water tank. For the $89 -$100 range this piece of equipment is actually well done. If your ice maker in your refrigerator/freezer breaks and you don’t wanna go all out fixing it and you just want to move ice from this ice maker into the hopper of your freezer… This unit makes ice has a removable ice basket where you can transport that ice over to your freezer. Hope this helps :)

This ice maker machine is exactly what I wanted for making ice for cocktails. It's easy to use and makes both small and medium ice cubes. Just be careful to make sure that you take off all of the tape before using. I missed two pieces holding the part (sweeping grate) that pushes the ice into the basket and realized when it made a not so happy noise. Luckily it didn't break and it was good to go once I removed the tape. Definitely recommend!

very quiet easy to set up and produces ice rapidly minimal water needed and ice shaper very pleasant to the mouth/

Works as advertised. Less heavy than my previous model, but just as fast.

I bought this for my wife for her office. She loves it. She likes to eat ice and says this is the prefect size and is soft enough to chew. She starts it up when she gets to work and by lunch there is plenty of ice. It does not keep the ice cold but any ice that melts just goes back into the reservoir to make more ice.

I had two other brands of ice makers before this one. One lasted about 3 months and the other lasted about 6 months. This Insignia model has been wonderful. It's quieter than the others I have had and it has been running like clockwork for the past year and a half. I always have fresh ice readily available. It is my favorite small appliance and the one that gets used the most

Machine is quiet and efficient. Produces ice quickly. Simple operation.

Nice compact ice maker. It's not loud, relatively quiet. Cute little cubes, I am pleased with my purchase.

Love having countertop ice, makes ice quickly and fits nicely in a corner

This icemaker is replacement #3. Apparently, even if you are careful and clean them often, they last almost a year. I only use filtered water. The other two Frigidaire so I'm giving Insignia a try. I could install an icemaker in my Freezer, but the logistics of my clunky kitchen make that impossible. I've five starred this one because so far, it's adequate for the job. It makes ice fast, large and small, and I can keep the ice bucket full on a daily basis. One can't ask for more.

Seriously amazing!!! It is perfect for on a counter or in a small space. Very fast at producing ice and so simple to use!

I bought this when my fridge ice maker went bad. It works fast and is quiet. The white and silver weren't available at the time I ordered so I went with the mint and the color is beautiful. I don't even know it is running except when I hear the ice drop. No more running to the store for ice. I'm very happy with this purchase so far.

The ice maker is quick, quiet and satisfactory in every way.

Very happy with this. Easy to clean and use. Produces a fair amount of ice in a short time. Could be a little quiter but honestly i barely notice it

perfect size of ice cubes and replenishes quickly.

I love this machine! It's not too loud, works as advertised and made my summer drinks joyful. It fits on my kitchen table and does not take up a lot of space. I had to replace it after a few years of non stop use.i had the protection plan, went in and got the same model. My service was quick and easy!

This item preformed better than expected. I am using the ice produced to provide cold compresses after shoulder surgery. It produces a constant stream of ice cubes, as long as you keep the unit filled with water. Ice cubes are dumped every 6 to 7 minutes until the ice basket fills. Cubes can block the electronic eye and stop the production of ice but pushing them away starts the machine again. This only happens when the basket is almost filled to capacity. The unit will operate for many hours on one water fill up but the ice tray will have to be emptied a number of times before the water reservoir drains completely and needs to be refilled. My unit is used indoors and not in direct sunlight. I can see how external temperature can have a big impact on ice production. Once the ice is dumped into the ice basket, it is subjected to the ambient temperature and can start to melt. The melted ice drains into the reservoir and gets reused again to make ice. I purchased this on 07 OCT 22 and so far am very pleased with it. So pleased that I filled out this requested review that I normal don't do. Check back in about 6 to 9 months. If it's still preforming then, like it is now, I'll add to this review. And if it's not, I'll definitely add to this review.

really pleased with this portable icemaker with auto shut-off. It fits in my small space on the counter of the kitchen with the vent facing out to open areas. I usually use the smaller size cubes as they fit in my carry container so I have ice cold water when I travel. Thank you Best Buy Customer Service for helping me choose the size that was right for my space.
