Customer Ratings & Reviews

Does an excellent job making ice. Just be patient. Always use bottled water as the instructions say. I would never even think of using our disgusting city water in this thing. I saw some reviewer's complaints about mold build-up in the back of the unit on and behind the vertical metal bars that push the ice out. Never had a problem with mold yet (great to know about this however - thank you reviewers). Anyhow my wife has small fingers, so we put a small amount of dish soap on a damp cleaning rag and wipe down the fingers and behind them, then using a wet cloth to rinse and remove until there's no more soap. I guess if you constantly use this to make ice, the condensation buildup on these vertical bars and behind them could catch dirty air particles and cause mold. Also, I saw one person pose the question of how to prevent ice from clumping once you transfer to your freezer. The ice does start to immediately melt as the tray fills up and you will get a large clump of ice once it refreezes. Just agitate the ice either with your fingers or a wooden spoon every minute or so. This works for me.

Works great. Good buy for the money. Makes ice quickly.

perfect size of ice cubes and replenishes quickly.

Absolutely love my ice maker! Super easy to setup, use it in my semi and have no issues going down the road and she is a trooper! Perfect ice size!

This ice maker works great! on the small cube setting it makes 9 cubes every 5 minutes. Also, its compact and very quiet.

Our ice maker in the freezer quit several years ago. Tired of always buying ice. First ice maker we bought we we're not happy with it. Once the ice cubes were made water continued to run over them. Water did not recirculate. That ice maker was returned. Went to Best Buy they had this one. Just what we we're looking for. Ice in a basket without water running over it and recirculating water. It's not loud either unlike our sons that he purchased many years ago. Very happy with purchase.

Love this ice maker! Makes both small and large cubes...perfect for drinks and for freezing cubes for boating next day. Simple and easy to use.

Makes ice So fast love it!!!! Economical and nice Color

it lasted 10months before it stopped making ice but for the most part it was a good machine

Gift for my daughter she absolutely loves this thing.

Love my new Ice maker. I never have enough room in my freezer to make ice. And buying ice gets expensive. The more you pay the less you get. I am pleased with the amount of ice that you can make in such a short time. And if you have to run an errand it will auto shut off and not over fill. It quieter that I expected and not buying new save me a lot of money. I love it!!!

Awesome Countertop ice maker. Use weekly and put bags in freezer for the week. Easy to use. And love the size of the ice and how it lets crunchy in water.

As a family who loves ice in all of their beverages, this ice maker is perfect. Ice is made quickly so that we're never without it. This is our second one in several years. The first one was still producing ice but I just wanted a newer looking one, It's one of those small appliances that's worth taking space on my counter.

So far so good. Bought as a simple inexpensive work-around for a broken ice maker in a high-end fridge. It does its job. It makes ice - a lot of it and quickly. Unless you're having a pool party weekend it's likely you'll need to run it just a couple times a week. It's sleek enough to hide well in a nicely appointed kitchen as well. I don't know how long it will last but right now it's far better than a expensive repair or complete replacement of a fridge.

I almost kick myself for not getting this sooner! It makes ice so fast! My only complaint is that it is hard to clean at times, getting to those small corners is a pain in the butt. I would recommend putting in the water you drink with and not tap water. I have a filter on my sink which gives the water a better taste than my tap water. It does not take up too much counter space and is fairly quiet. I love that it came with a tray to catch the ice and a little scooper.

makes ice cubes i minutes but only about 10 at a time, need a little patience, pretty quiet and small footprint

rapid and quiet, and takes up minimal counter space to boot.

Great ice machine! Works fast and is quiet! We are using in our RV! Best thing ever.

I loved the size of the ice cubes that it makes. It is quiet while running. There were two negatives. One - it doesn’t keep the ice cold. You need to scoop it out and place in the freezer. Two - there was a short in the power cord after the third day of using it. Best Buy’s customer service was great. While the store did not have an additional one in stock to exchange, they are sending one to my home. Cannot wait to get it next week.

This is a very nice unit and works exactly as described. I purchased this because once again our built-in Kitchen Aid refrigerator had another ice maker failure. Faced with the cost of repairs, likely over $300, I decided to try a countertop ice maker. After checking out several brands and models at BB, I ended up with this one in red. There is only one problem with countertop ice makers sucvh as this one. The ice comes out wet, and when you transfer the ice to a freezer, it can freeze together in a huge clump, necessetating a hammer, ice pick, or some other tool to break up the clump. I thought, "Well I must not be the only one with this problem", so I did a bit of research. Most solutions said store the ice in paper bags, the paper will absorb the excess water and the ice won't freeze together. Well, yes and no. Yes the paper bags do absorb some of the water, but it does not prevent wet cubes from freezing to the bag. Yech, now you have paper stuck to your ice. Not cool. So, knowing the problem to be wet cubes, why not dry them off a bit before dumping them into the freezer bucket? Taking a clean white towel, I laid the towel on the counter, dumped the ice onto the towel, and blotted the ice mostly dry before dumping into the freezer ice bucket. Yup, it works and now the ice remains relatively free of water and no longer sticks together. Problem solved.
