    Works fantastically! We got this to make extra ice for guests and when we make snowcones. It will pop out a few icecubes within 10 minutes. Will make tons of ice if you let it keep running. Just need to empty the bin. Ice will melt back into the reservoir to make more ice. Easy plug on bottom allows you to empty the water for storage. Great little machine. Well worth it.

    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

    Little ice maker that could! — great product overall and does the job its intended to do. Only complaint would be how quickly it needs to be properly cleaned and disinfected. Mind you, I have no problem with upkeep on appliances but I don’t think my ice maker should have what looks like black… slime? a day after it hasn’t been used... not sure how to best describe it. It’s almost like the minimal amount of water inevitably left behind for that day becomes stale and eventually gets that black slime build up. Kinda weird not gonna lie lol But, ultimately, a deep clean with disinfectant and running it with water mixed with vinegar before starting actual ice cube making for ourselves seems to keep all that away. Coming from someone who is somewhat of a self-diagnosed germaphobe… it’s still 100% worth it.

    Great little machine so far. We have made quite a few batches of ice with these since buying it and it has worked great. Easy to use. Doesn't make a ton of ice at one time but, given it only takes a few minutes to make a tray the ice adds up in no time. Definitely would buy again. Looking forward to using it when it gets warm this summer.

    I purchased the Insignia 26lb Icemaker for home and it has run well. We typically run it for a couple of days and bag the extra ice to store in a freezer. After a year, I purchased a second one for a small office and we leave it on all the time. It typically holds ice over night making new only a couple times until we start using ice again the next day. The one at work stopped running after about 10-11 months of use and I will proceed through the warranty process. That aside, here are my only issues: 1) Not using it all the time allows the internal area to get warmer and mold will start to grow everywhere. 2) Leaving it on all the time feels wasteful since it is making ice (although reduced) over night and weekends. 3) I would have put the device on a timer but when power is applied, it doesn't start making ice until the start button is depressed. 4) If it runs out of water, it won't restart until I have turned it off and back on again instead of detecting the water level increase. Those are my only issues and relatively minor.

    1. Convenient Ice Production: Counter ice machines are designed to be compact and easy to use, providing a convenient source of ice for your beverages or cooling needs without the hassle of traditional ice trays. 2. Speedy Ice Production: Most counter ice machines can produce ice relatively quickly, often within 10-20 minutes, which is faster than freezing ice in a regular freezer. 3. Ice Variety: Some models offer different ice cube shapes and sizes, allowing you to choose the type of ice that best suits your needs. 4. Compact Design: These machines are typically designed to fit on your countertop, saving freezer space and making them suitable for small kitchens, offices, or even outdoor use. 5. Easy Maintenance: They often come with removable parts for easy cleaning and maintenance.

    Ice machine lasted one week and then absolutely died. I did purchase the warranty and Best Buy was very good and easy so they sent me a new machine ASAP and then I sent the broken one back. So far so good with this new one! Makes great ice, very quiet---I hope it continues to work!!!

    This ice machine is a great starter! Its very convinient, it fits in small places and goes very nice in the kitchen. It takes about 8 minutes for the ice to get made and its super useful when you dont have any storage for ice and you are in a rush! One of my favorite features of this item are the sensors. It senses when the ice ifs full and once the ice is not in the sensors way, it starts making ice again. I was worried to have it on overnight but it was such a great idea. It did not overflow, whatever melted turned to ice again and I had fresh beautiful ice for my coffee before work without any delays. I recommend this ice maker to everyone, from a larger area to a small crowded area, it fits so perfectly, it comes in different colors for your aesthetic. Also, the ice maker is also pretty quiet.

    This product is a reasonably priced unit that has two options on the size of ice it produces. When considering products, the ice maker is it is portable that you can take it with you camping. It does take up some counter space but you don’t have to worry where you will store a bag of ice, the water is recycled and it has a warning light to add more water
