    Efficient and compact, can start making ice in 13-20 minutes. I knew buying it that it does not keep the ice cool in the machine, so we save the ice in ziploc bags or bowls in the freezer. Got this as a Mother’s Day gift for my mom and she loves it.

    Pleased for the price how this performs. It's small size is perfect for our cabin. Plan accordingly because it takes some time to make enough ice for the family or a party. I have only used it twice. So far so good. Also you must remove ice and place in freezer or ice bucket or it melts fairly quickly!! Patience and planning it gets the job done! It only makes 8 or so cubes at a time.

    Love this little ice maker. The only thing that would make it better, would be an insulated lid to keep the ice from melting a bit. It is so quick when it makes ice. Perfect for my office.

    Great little machine. I am chewing on ice a lot and our refrigerator icemaker could not keep up. Now we have a water softener and I also use the filtered water from the refrigerator to make the ice nuggets from this machine which are super soft. It runs as long as I’m home and not sleeping. Only comment I wish when the bin was full that it would beep so I know to get up and dump it it gives you a red light that’s it. Note that this is not a freezer so ice does start to melt while sitting in the bin. Using the small cube size (shown) it takes 5 min to make the first set of nuggets and 1hour to fill the bin. But that’s fm being off all night. You cannot change the speed. Lol - Note fm my photo it will need to vent on the right.

    It works as advertised. Very nice addition for the rv. Ideal size cubes for drinks and your adding the water so you know what your consuming. The down side is that the ice needs to be put into the freezer or else it will melt.

    For RVing it’s worth every penny

    This ice maker has mostly been great and I 100% recommend it (but also get the $20ish extended service warranty thing because we’ve used it once and getting a brand new replacement was too easy)! We mostly use it RVing and while I always thought it was a needless purchase it’s been a game changer! My dislikes are that it’s a royal pain to clean the insides (rarely needed), it is a bit noisy, the basket design causes the ice to dam up and stop making before it’s actually full, and there’s no discernible difference between the Large and Small ice cube sizes (somewhat common among ice makers). Also it would’ve been nice for them to add a hanger on the left side for the ice scoop (we added a command strip hook). We only use filtered water in it (ZeroWater or WaterDrop pitcher) which will definitely extend its life! Obviously keep it away from sources of heat and give it a decent clearance around the vents on the back and right hand side. If this one breaks outside of the warranty period I imagine we’ll buy another identical one!

    Amazing countertop ice maker. First time I saw one was at a friend’s BBQ. Use this at the lake house. No longer have to buy bags of ice. I’ve is made in a reasonable amount of time. Always make extra and put in freezer bags in the freezer. There is always ice waiting when arriving at the lake.

    We love this ice maker!! We had a 50th birthday party and needed to make extra ice, it worked great. We had it on the bar, so they had fresh ice the whole time. Everyone that came to the party said they needed one of these. We loved the 2 sizes of ice, every 6 minutes, new ice!!
