Quick tips before you buy

It makes ice, it does not freeze it

Countertop ice makers do not keep ice frozen. Move extra ice to your freezer.

Use filtered water

Filtered water makes clearer ice and less mineral buildup.

Run the cleaning cycle

Use the self-clean button regularly to keep the ice fresh.

Give it room to breathe

Leave space around the vents so the ice maker can stay cool.

Quick answers

Nugget ice or bullet ice?+

Nugget ice is soft and chewable, great for soda and iced coffee. Bullet ice is harder and melts slower, better for coolers and parties.

How fast do countertop ice makers work?+

Most make their first batch in about 5 to 7 minutes and up to 26 to 36 lb of ice a day.

Do I need a water line?+

No. You pour water into the tank, so you can use it on any counter near an outlet.
