Perfect ice maker

WORTH THE MONEY
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I waited over a year to actually review the ice maker. She’s still going and haven’t had a single issue. So very happy with this ice maker. The one in our fridge went out so we use this one exclusively. Pro tip: if you’re wanting to keep a large ice bin stocked just empty the ice basket into a gallon freezer bag. Stick it in the freezer. After 30min or so just pop the bag on the counter to break up the ice then dump it in your ice bin. (That’s what we do to use the ice dispenser on the freezer door) very important to use distilled water only!!!!!

A good deal on sale
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.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.

Very good ice maker!
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This ice maker cycles quickly. Making hollow tube shaped ice cubes on freezing finger or spikes. Producing a gallon storage bag of ice in about 20 minutes. The ice cubes are not clear as in bagged ice, but look like what you get when using an ice cube tray. They no taste to the cubes and they keep things cold like bagged ice. We make a couple of bags at a time for our drinks and a lot of bags if we are going to use a cooler. Often throw ice cubes in a bag into a small cooler to keep drinks cold. Plan to take on camping trips for ice on demand. 26 pounds of ice is a lot of ice in 24 hours. It is easy to drain and clean. Also has a small foot print so easy to find space to set it up. All and all we do like it and so been useful. Having colors to chose from was nice , too.

I'm never without ice
||Posted . Owned for 6 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This Insignia ice maker is my 5th, count 'em, FIFTH countertop ice maker and I think it may be the magic bullet. Three of other four, brand names all, simply weren't up to the task; each one dying within a year. The fourth, also an Insignia, was soooo easy to replace when it, sadly, bit the dust; kudos to the excellent warranty policy offered and honored by Best Buy. A couple of things that make this ice maker lead the pack: It's got an extra-long cord that makes it so much easier to move to the sink for for cleaning and refilling. At cord's end is a lie-flat-angled wall plug that doesn't stick out, taking up valuable counter real estate and making appliance placement difficult. It's quiet, dependable, easy-to-clean, provides two widths (the smaller size fits perfectly into the neck of a water bottle), and delivers ice in about six minutes. But my absolute favorite aspect is that the air intake fan is on one side only, meaning don't have to treat it like a nuclear reactor, keeping it at least 12 inches from everything on each side. I can butt it directly against a wall in the back, and another on the left side. Unless there's a power blip, when the safety switch keeps it from restarting without my knowledge. I'm never without ice. Which is, after all, the point.

Solid Ice maker
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The ice maker is exactly what I expected. It’s fairly quick at making it as it fills its basket in about 15 min. The rate of production would be adequate for two people who use ice in every drink based on my use. Noise was a concern but I was pleasantly surprised there. It’s actually off most of the time and the fan kicks on when it’s making ice, the noise is not to bad there, but when the water runs low the pump gets loud so just refill when you hear it essentially. It also has a light indicator for refills but it didn’t kick on before the noise got loud so I preemptively fill. Works like a charm with those considerations in mind. Also it’s small enough I can bring it to the beach or to a cook out easily. (Also! Be sure and toss the first couple baskets like the instructions say)

Nice ice maker
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This ice maker is quick at spinning out ice. The ice can be small or large bullets. It is easy to keep clean and fill up with water. The one thing I do not really like is the ice is wet and if you try to move it to another container, the ice just freezes in a huge clump and is unusable. Other than that, it has a small footprint and the ice is easy to chew.

Making Ice Great Again
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This little unit impressed me! It makes ice pretty dang fast! So far so good after a few months. No issues yet, just make sure you clean it, yes it can be a pain but get creative with using dedicated toothbrushes ect no big deal! Bullet is on large setting is still small, the basket does not fill all the way and when you empty the basket since its bullet ice youll have alot of drippy ice and it sticks together easily when frozen. Also unless you transfer it to a real fridge or use a double wall insulated cup the ice will melt fast in drinks.

We love this cute icemaker!
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.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!

Insignia bullet ice maker
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.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.

Exactly what I needed. Never buying ice again!
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Before I purchased this, I read the reviews. Which were very helpful. It still was much better than I expected. Compact size for limited space on small counters. It runs quiet. Ice is made quickly. The choice of sizes are perfect. We love the shape, it's great for the reusable water bottles. The basket looks small, but it holds a large quantity of ice. It is not a freezer, so the ice will melt if you let it sit. However, it will turn itself off and reuse the water from the melted ice. I am very happy with this purchase.

Amazing
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Would never purchase Samsung appliances but I of course moved into a home with a brand new Samsung refrigerator. The ice machine on it is terrible, constantly freezes up, had it worked on one time and was fine for a few weeks. Called the appliance guy back and told us he no longer serviced Samsung because they are just that bad! Our alternative to purchasing another fridge was this ice machine. After reading the reviews we decided to go with it. It’s small enough that it can tuck away into my cabinet with a plug in it so it runs in there and isn’t an eye sore on my counter top. In about two hours it fills with ice, it takes about three times of this to fill my ice machine. I followed another guys review to dump onto a clean dish towel to get off excess water before putting into our ice maker, this was a huge help. No problem with clumping, can keep ice maker on Samsung fridge off and still let this ice come out of there. We make ice about once a week to put in our fridge for a two person household.
