Customer Ratings & Reviews

This icemaker is replacement #3. Apparently, even if you are careful and clean them often, they last almost a year. I only use filtered water. The other two Frigidaire so I'm giving Insignia a try. I could install an icemaker in my Freezer, but the logistics of my clunky kitchen make that impossible. I've five starred this one because so far, it's adequate for the job. It makes ice fast, large and small, and I can keep the ice bucket full on a daily basis. One can't ask for more.

Love having countertop ice, makes ice quickly and fits nicely in a corner

This item preformed better than expected. I am using the ice produced to provide cold compresses after shoulder surgery. It produces a constant stream of ice cubes, as long as you keep the unit filled with water. Ice cubes are dumped every 6 to 7 minutes until the ice basket fills. Cubes can block the electronic eye and stop the production of ice but pushing them away starts the machine again. This only happens when the basket is almost filled to capacity. The unit will operate for many hours on one water fill up but the ice tray will have to be emptied a number of times before the water reservoir drains completely and needs to be refilled. My unit is used indoors and not in direct sunlight. I can see how external temperature can have a big impact on ice production. Once the ice is dumped into the ice basket, it is subjected to the ambient temperature and can start to melt. The melted ice drains into the reservoir and gets reused again to make ice. I purchased this on 07 OCT 22 and so far am very pleased with it. So pleased that I filled out this requested review that I normal don't do. Check back in about 6 to 9 months. If it's still preforming then, like it is now, I'll add to this review. And if it's not, I'll definitely add to this review.

really pleased with this portable icemaker with auto shut-off. It fits in my small space on the counter of the kitchen with the vent facing out to open areas. I usually use the smaller size cubes as they fit in my carry container so I have ice cold water when I travel. Thank you Best Buy Customer Service for helping me choose the size that was right for my space.

I love this machine! It's not too loud, works as advertised and made my summer drinks joyful. It fits on my kitchen table and does not take up a lot of space. I had to replace it after a few years of non stop use.i had the protection plan, went in and got the same model. My service was quick and easy!

Very happy with this. Easy to clean and use. Produces a fair amount of ice in a short time. Could be a little quiter but honestly i barely notice it

Really a nice appliance to replace or supplement fridge-freezer icemaker. Small, accessible, easy to operate, fast.

The ice maker is quick, quiet and satisfactory in every way.

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.

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.

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

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.

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!!!

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

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.

perfect size of ice cubes and replenishes quickly.

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