When the ice comes out of the nugget ice maker it is not completely frozen and clumps up bad when you put it in bags to freeze. I found a solution to this. I spread it out in a cookie sheet and set it in the freezer this complete the freezing process and then transferred it to bags, works great. As far as the nugget maker it doesn’t make ice as fast as they claimed. It takes 11/2 hours to fill the little basket. If I run it all day about 5 baskets of ice. Otherwise no complaints just wish it were a little faster. I don’t think it will make 33 lbs of ice in anormal working day. It make it in a 24 hour day but not in a 10 hr day. I’d give it a 3.5 rating because of the slowness it has to add water every time the the basket fills.

We love having this around for when guests come over. The ice maker in our refrigerator wasn't able to keep up. We usually set this up a few hours before our guests arrive and we're good for the evening.

I recently bought this countertop ice maker, and it’s been a great addition to my kitchen. It’s super simple to use—just fill it with water, turn it on, and in about 6 minutes, you’ve got a batch of ice. It makes 9 cubes at a time, which works perfectly for small batches, and I love how quickly it makes more. It’s capable of producing up to 34 pounds of ice in 24 hours, so I never have to worry about running out during a gathering. I can also select large or small ice cubes!

One of the best features is the self-cleaning option. With just the press of a button, it cleans itself, which saves me time and effort. I don’t have to deal with scrubbing or worrying about mold buildup.

The size is perfect too—not too bulky, so it doesn’t take up much counter space. It’s also surprisingly quiet for something that works as quickly as it does. If you’re looking for a portable ice maker that’s easy to use and maintain, this one’s a solid choice. It’s reliable, fast, and efficient, and it’s definitely made ice-making way easier for me. I’d recommend it to anyone who needs ice without the hassle of traditional ice trays.

I purchased this for my camper and it worked for a day and then stopped making ice. I returned it and was sent another which as soon as I received it tried it out and again the new one didn't work either - no ice. I returned that one and requested a refund. I was still charged a restocking fee for something that was broke.

Would not recommend!

This portable ice maker is great for having ice on hand quickly. It’s small enough to fit on a countertop, yet it makes ice fast, producing about 9 bullet-shaped cubes in around 6 minutes. The self-cleaning feature is handy, and it’s easy to scoop and store with the included basket. It’s a solid choice for keeping drinks cold at home or on the go!

Hubby likes having ice again after refrigerator maker quit. Two water fill ups in machine perfectly fill a narrow plastic storage bin in the freezer with the smaller cubes. Machine has a small footprint on the counter and is easy to use. I dump the storage basket after each drop shaking briefly in a tea towel to dry off moisture. So far this helps keep the cubes from sticking together in the freezer. Hopefully machine will have a good working record for our small usage household. Time will tell come summer weather.
