    Purchased for GF's house, works amazing. She was using bagged ice from the local grocery store up until we started dating. The ice would be freezer burnt and it was just a pain going to the store for ice when needed. We've been using filtered water from the store to fill it, and the ice cubes come out crystal clear and quickly. Always have ice on hand, and highly recommend. Just waiting for this to go on sale again, so I can also get one for my own house.

      Thank you for the recommendation! It's great to hear that the Insignia™ Portable Ice Maker is working out well for you and your girlfriend. Having clear and easily accessible ice at home definitely makes a difference. Keep an eye out for sales so you can get one for your own house too!

    But how

    I have the not so good habit of chewing ice. I know which places in my town have the best and which have the worst ice and how much they charge for it. I couldn't stand how much room my tower of ice trays took up in the freezer and was tired of struggling to get the ice out of them several times a day. So I bought this countertop ice maker to improve my quality of life. It's a good piece of machinery that Producers a good amount of cubes with a quickness. My complaint is that there's no guidance on cleaning it aside from wiping it down with soapy water before using. I know how slimy ice machines can get and that wiping the surfaces you can reach won't take care of that slime. There has to be a way to clean the inner workings to prevent or clear it out. Otherwise, I'm happy with it

    On my second one and just got it a month ago. The first one started making a loud noise and stopped making ice. Best Buy replaced it without any problem. Love the ice and how quickly it makes it. Definitely a value as long as it works…I feel like my experience isn’t the norm (meaning it usually works).

    This little ice maker is a gem. We bought it to use in our motorhome so it needed to be fairly small. Fits our space nicely and really cranks out the ice cubes. The cubes need to be gathered and put in the freezer for storage but it sure beats ice cube trays or buying big bulky bags of ice. We are pleased with this purchase.

    I returned a larger ice maker because it took forever to make one freezer bag of ice. I decided to try this smaller size and am so happy i did, not only did it fit well on my kitchen counter it cranked out ice as it should have. Very happy!

    I love it. Easy to use, easy to clean. The ice is soft to eat and takes about 30 minutes to fill. I use the large ice.

    I got this on sale for $95. Start it up for 20-30 minutes, and you will have a glass of ice. It starts kicking ice out pretty quick after that. It makes the small-medium hollow cylindrical ice cubes. I haven't had visitors over to see how well it would keep up, but I'd estimate that it would keep ice for 5-10 people at a low-moderate rate. The basket is smallish though, so that might not be the case if the freezing element shuts off when it gets full. It does extremely well for one person for 2-3 20 oz glasses a day (only have it on for 1-2 hours per).

    Great machine for the price. It makes ice super fast and doesn’t take up much counter space. I will say, it is a bit loud and it doesn’t keep the ice frozen, but the basket will drain the melted ice to re freeze.

    Perfect little ice maker to substitute for my use while freezers ice maker is down. Good amount of ice for what it is, and next to silent operation. I say next to silent because the ice dump cycle sounds just like you would think. Not loud but you hear it

    I absolutely adore this little machine. Whenever sweltering summer weather leaves me parched and in need of a refreshing drink, I couldn't ask for a better ice maker. This bundle of joy has brought so much pleasure into my life that I can hardly imagine what it was like before I bought it. Highly recommended! The machine's ability to produce loads of ice quickly and efficiently makes it perfect for any gathering, whether you are hosting an event with lots of guests or just want enough ice for the entire family at home. You can easily customise the size of cubes to suit your preferences so that they're just right.

    We would have to spend as much money as a new refrigerator to run pluming to our current location so this ice maker was the perfect compromise. It makes ice quick and we just put in a container in the freezer and were are good to go.

    We got two of these. The first one had a VERY strong plastic taste to the ice...I cleaned it...I cleaned it and I cleaned it. I called tech support and they had me clean it a few other ways. Even over a month of using it every day multiple times a day, the ice tasted TERRIBLE. We were able to return it and get a new one since Insignia is basically a BestBuy brand. After 1 day, the plastic taste was gone. We've taken this on trips with us, we use it DAILY beacuse the ice maker in our refrigerator is SO slow, it takes 3 days for it to fill the small bin. This has been a GREAT purchase. Just so you know, some halogen bulbs will interfere with the ice detector and so the ice maker will never shut off. We've had this occur in one location and once we found the cause, turning off the offending bulbs was the best work around for us.
