This ice maker has exceeded my expectations! I was not expecting to fall so much in love with this product, but... here we are! The machine itself is beautiful, well designed, and looks fantastic in my home. It is easy to clean with just a wipe down. Beauty aside, let's talk about the ice! It is pourous, crisp, crunchy, and consistently the perfectly sized nugget ice that tastes AMAZING! I let the machine rest on the counter after removing it from the box, as the instructions stated, and after its resting period, was able to instantly start making ice. It didn't take long at all for the drawer to be full. The soft blue light that can be turned on and off for the drawer compartment makes it easy to see when getting a glass in the night. One of my favorite things is how QUIET this machine is! My Goodness! I don't hear anything but a low fan when I'm right up to it! I love that I am no longer craving chips and high calorie snacks. I am literally snacking on WATER! This machine is truly life changing!
I got this for my birthday in August. I absolutely love it! I have had several ice machines in the past but this one is exactly like Sonic ice and the speed in which is makes the ice is amazing!! I love that it is compact and doesn’t take up a lot of counter space. I am very happy with this ice machine and would recommend it to anyone, especially those who love Sonic soft ice.
As a busy mom of three, this nugget ice maker has been one of my favorite kitchen appliances! My kids absolutely love nugget ice, and it’s so nice to have a constant supply at home instead of making trips out just for ice.
It produces soft, chewable nugget ice quickly and keeps up well with our family’s daily use. The machine is easy to operate, simple to clean, and looks great on the counter. I use it for water bottles, iced coffee, smoothies, and entertaining guests, and it has become something we use every single day.
If you’re a nugget ice lover or have kids who are always asking for ice, this machine is definitely worth it. It’s convenient, reliable, and has made our daily routine just a little bit easier.
This is THE ice maker that I have been searching for. It's the 3rd ice maker we have purchased and the ice is not just tiny ice cubes, it's the eraser shaped ice that is made out of layers of frozen ice. This makes it so soft to chew on and so satisfying. It makes ice very quickly and is quiet. In our open floor plan we cannot hear it making ice. We will buy another one whenever this one dies.
