    It works well and makes ice quickly. It's easy to fill and seems to be resistent to growing mold when stored with the lid open so it can dry out adequately. My only issue is that since the device isn't insulated, the ice starts melting and when it's put in the freezer, freezes into a big clump. It's easy enough to break apart though.

    I was replacing a Fridgidaire that stopped working sfter three years for no apparent reason. I paid much more for the fridgidaire than this machine. However, this Insignia is nicer in style, takes up less room, and is much eSier to cleab than the Fridgidaire. Furthermore, the ice tastes better and I am delighted. This is a great buy and a better value than expected.

    I had low expectations. Considering its size, I thought "how great can it be?" I expected that it would take forever to make ice, and that the volume of product would be low. Boy howdy was I wrong. Five minutes and this little beauty was spitting out bullet-shaped ice cubes by the handful. Approximately a pint of water in the tank gave me more cubes than I could reasonably use in an evening. And it fits on my counter underneath the cupboards so it's not intrusive at all. And it's quiet!

    Good ic maker..makes ice in roughly 7 minutes at a time .. recycling water..needs to be cleaned regularly for better use and hygiene..but overall a good ice maker . I bought one as a gift and they love it. I would buy again great price for the item that is comparable to item of its same size and capacity and ice making capabilities . Easy counter use and easy to add needed water for machine to make ice in little to no time. ..

    Pretty Good Ice Maker For the Pricel

    Makes ice quickly, and like that it is quiet. Love the texture of the ice for chewing, but will melt quickly in drinks unless you store in the freezer for a bit. I just keep a bowl in the freezer for this purpose. The unit is supposed to store and keep the ice frozen but notice that it melts pretty quickly. All in all, this ice maker is good for the price and small enough to keep in the counter or store away when not being used.

    this icemaker makes ice quickly and efficiently, and it really just sits on your counter and does it job without complaint. I have kept this plugged in 24 seven as I do not have a dedicated icemaker and have not had any problems. I really like the quality of the ice that it makes, and use the ice every day in my smoothies.

    Fits perfectly on the counter, doesn't take up space, and is so easy to use! Makes just the right amount of ice needed for the freezer. Plus more if needed in just a few minutes. It is small enough to take on camping trips, or even to an event/ birthday party. I Love it!

    We purchased this for use in our RV. It has worked great! You can set it on the counter. Fill it with water and have cubes ready in not time without taking up the limited space in the RV freezer. We have also used it at home for a party on the deck saving trips inside to the freezer. Its fairly quiet. It does not hold the ice so you must remember to empty it as it makes the cubes, but that is for all of the ice makers. I highly recommend it.

    We purchased the ice maker because our new fridge couldn’t make enough to keep up with family functions or summer use. The ice maker helps to prepare extra to bag for later. It makes a good three cups plus before you need to remove it from the basket. It’s not too loud or too big. It has a drain on the bottom to release water from the container. I wouldn’t use it outside or keep it out in direct sun. The large cubes are slightly bigger than a candy drop candy. Never used small option. Overall, it does the job.

    I am in love with this product and so is everyone else in my house. It is easy to set up, easy to use, even the kid in my house knows how to work it. Don’t forget to run a few cycles before munching on the ice or you will get an appliance taste but the instructions do tell you to do that too. I know someone in the previous reviews complained about the noise but I honestly don’t even notice when it’s on; I mean, if you pay attention and there is nothing else going on in your house, that is, there is dead silence… you can hear it running, and you will hear it when it empties the ice but for me I forget it’s on sometimes. I first bought it to just supplement our regular ice, but everyone loves the texture and size of the ice (you get to choose from two different sizes) so it goes almost all day. Ice crunchers beware… you have a new addiction. Its quick about producing ice and it is true you do need to remove it, but I also have not had mine turn into a liquid form. It just gets softer the longer it sits. So what we do, is we keep a zippered Ziploc bag in the freezer and we just dump it in there after 2-3 cycles. Only negative and its a minor one is, I wish there was a place to hang the ice scoop. Buy this, you will not regret it.

    I wish I could compare it to others, but this is the first one I have owned. It was purchased it because the one in the refrigerator went south. OK so the cycle takes about 7 minutes just like the instructions say. Here is the way I use it and it appears to work very well. I put a large Tupperware container in the freezer. Each time the ice maker basket fills up I empty it into the Tupperware container. The next time the basket fills up I take the Tupperware container out and smack it on the countertop a few times to get the previous cubes to separate and then add the new cubes in. I repeat this process until the Tupperware container is full. Once it is full, I empty it into a large plastic freezer bag. I repeat this process until the bag of ice is full. So far this has worked out great and I would purchase it again. At the price point it appears to be a good purchase and the performance is acceptable.

    I purchased this ice maker about 3 weeks ago and I've had no issues with it. It makes 9 bullets of ice in about 6 minutes. It is fairly quiet. I am not someone who gives 5 stars easily. I am very happy with this purchase. It is not expensive and it does what it should do. If it is still functioning the same in 2 years i would give it 5 stars.

    My new favorite kitchen appliance!!! The ice maker in my LG fridge died about 2 yrs ago, and I had been going to the gas station ever couple of days for 20lb bags of ice. And depending on which place you went, ranging from $5+ each time. Ever since i bought this simple to use counter top ice maker, I'm free!!! I make ice every couple of days, and its great !! The size of the cubes is fabulous !! They fit in every cup I have, they taste amazing, and there's no running out and drinking warm water until I can get out to the store. I definitely recommend this!! I worried that the less expensive machines would not work as good... But, I have not hax any issues. If anything , it is so phenomenal , I sometimes forget I'm making ice, and it just sits there "paused" until I remember!!! I feel like I'm always apologizing to it for forgetting !!! Haha You will love it!!!

    We have had our icemaker for two months now and it works GREAT! It is very convenient and easy to use. If we are out of ice, we can have enough for several drinks within 30 minutes. It is so much better than buying ice or using ice cube trays. It works exactly as advertised and we have not had any problems with it. And we love the red color!

    Does what it says it will do, makes ice pretty quick, the entire tray is usually full in about an hour, even if the kids take some occasionally. It’s super easy to use, literally full with water abs turn on and quiet, barely noticeable sitting on our counter next to our fridge. The only real complaint we have is that the ice does melt quicker than I would have liked.

    I purchased this on BEST BUY DAILY DEAL and it is worth every penny. Often times I look past this brand and thought poorly of them, however I’m now a loyal supporter and strongly recommend this ice maker. You won’t be disappointed and now I never run out of ice in my large household of 8 people. Perfect size options and it isn’t loud or annoying, matter of fact I enjoy watching it make ice cubes.
