  • Easy to use, easy to clean
Size: 34Lbs/24H Color: Stainless Steel Silver Number of Items: 1
This makes plenty of ice for our wants. It's not going to make it super fast, but it'll be faster than filling an ice tray or waiting for your fridge ice maker to get some ice. It makes tiny pellets, and makes roughly two cups of ice at a time. Perfect for us. We simply fill a two gallon freezer bag for some ready made ice and break it up with a rubber mallet when we want some. it does break up really well and doesn't stay in huge chunks. Whether it's for soda, water or an iced coffee, this has been fantastic ice. The machine did make some funky noises once. I turned it off, unplugged it for a little bit, then plugged it back in and started it back up. No issues since. Don't let it run constantly. It is a small machine and needs breaks. It does not keep the ice in the basket frozen forever. Hence the reason why we bag and store some, and make more as we need it. Having ready made pellet ice that isn't costing us a lot by the bag is fantastic and saves us a trip across town to grab more. I've had zero issues thus far, and filter water before I fill it. I do expect I will have to run a descaling cycle on it to clean, but it does have a self cleaning cycle I can run with descaler, then follow up with a couple rinse cycles. Much like I do with my single cup coffee maker. The ice comes out tasting great and doesn't leave anything behind in my drinks. It doesn't melt too fast and is a little more solid than some popular ice providers, which I love. I might have to get these as holiday gifts for my offspring, as they love pellet ice as well. For the price, portability and size, I'm really digging on this ice maker. Time will tell on lifetime of this machine, but if I get a good couple years out of it, it will have easily paid for itself in that time. Perfect on a budget. Edit: We're in September now, and it's still running like a champ. My husband and I enjoy cold, icy drinks every day. No running problems at all, and the ice doesn't come out tasting or smelling funky. I have yet to run a descale because I put filtered water through it. We run it long enough to fill a two gallon freezer bag, then let it sit and rest while we use the current supply. The bag goes in the deep freeze, and when we want some we smack it a little with a rubber mallet to break up the chunks that freeze together so we have a cup full of good ice. ... show more

  • Still Going Strong After a Few Months – Great Ice Maker
Size: 34Lbs/24H Color: Stainless Steel Silver Number of Items: 1
I bought the Nugget Countertop Ice Maker a few months ago, and I’m happy to say it’s still working great with no issues. It’s been exactly what I needed for my kitchen. The machine makes ice quickly and produces the perfect nugget ice that’s great for drinks. Whether it's iced tea, coffee, or just water, the ice is always refreshing. The setup was straightforward, and I love how easy it is to use. Just press a button, and it starts making ice in no time. The self cleaning function is a great feature that saves me from having to spend extra time cleaning it manually. One downside is that it can be a bit noisy, especially if you're in a quieter environment, but it’s not a huge issue for me. Also, the ice basket fills up fairly quickly, so if you’re hosting a gathering, you might need to empty it a couple of times. Overall, I’m really happy with the ice maker. It’s compact, efficient, and makes great ice for everyday use. If you’re looking for an easy to use ice maker that makes nugget ice, this one is a solid choice! ... show more

  • Unit is LOUD and doesn't even last a year... disappointing/frustrating Unit is LOUD and doesn't even last a year... disappointing/frustrating
Size: 34Lbs/24H Color: Stainless Steel Black Number of Items: 1
Update 12/22/25: I can no longer recommed this ice maker. It doesn't last a year. The first one only lasted a few months before we had to reach out to the seller for a warranty replacement due to the unit making super loud grinding and overheating to the point I burned myslef. After jumping through multiple hoops for warranty replacement, the seller wanted a video showing the issue. How do you video the unit being hot?!!! So I sent a video with me touching the unit and saying "ouch!" We were finally given a refund in leui of the replacement requested, (sucks because the price increased) so we used that towards a another of the same unit and paid the difference (thinking the first was a fluke and the manufacturer refunded us). That was a HUGE mistake, as the second one is now overheating and just as loud as the first one gridning itself apart, and the seller is requesting multiple vidoes and troubleshooting steps. I have submitted the video and answered all the questions and now they want me to clean it for 4 hours and try again. Cleaning it is not going to fix the unit overheating!!! They are trying their best not to honor their warranty. I urge you to reconsider a different manufacturer as this unit does not work longer than 6 months, even with weekly cleaning and only using bottled purified water. And when you have an issue, the manufacturer will have you do 100 steps in hopes you will give up on warranty repair/replacement. I just want a working ice maker!!! Buy a different brand. 11/7/24: We bought this ice-maker on a lighting deal and are 100% glad we did! The price was phenomenal compared to similar models at the local retailers & big box stores. We use it daily with only bottled water to prevent any buildup. It makes ice in 15 minutes, is durable enough to use daily, the color looks sleek in any kitchen, and doesn't leak. Has a handy silicone plug to make draining & cleaning quick & easy. Highly recommend. ... show more

  • UPDATE: The manufacturer, Antarctic Star, contacted me and maybe it right. UPDATE: The manufacturer, Antarctic Star, contacted me and maybe it right.
Size: 34Lbs/24H Color: Stainless Steel Silver Number of Items: 1
Update: the manufacturer contacted me and made it right. They stood up behind their product and we came to a solution. After talking with them it sounds like I happened to get a defective ice maker that slipped through quality control and that my experience is not typical. I'm revising my review to 4 stars because the manufacturer stepped up and fixed the issue, but I can't do 5 stars because I didn't receive a defective one. I think that is fair. Previous review: Warning - If you are looking to buy an ice maker like this, be forewarned that this is not the one you want to buy. In my experience, it will fail and break in only a few months and calls and emails to the manufacturer go unanswered. We really loved this little ice maker. It's small, compact, and pretty quiet. It make the perfect ice and pretty fast too. But only after a few months it has broken. It started making a horrible clunking and grinding noise that sounded like it came from the right rear corner area of the machine. It first I thought that maybe there was some ice stuck in there so I unplugged it and let the whole machine defrost overnight and then cleared it really well the next day. I filled it back up with water and plugged it in. All seemed normal and it started producing ice. I thought it was good to go but nope. Within a few hours it started making the same horrible clunking and grinding noises. Unfortunately it broke just outside of Amazon's return window, so now I guess I have a $200 paperweight on my kitchen counter. I have tried contacting the seller and manufacturer but I get now reply from them. ... show more

  • Pregnant mamas- GET IT! 😍 Pregnant mamas- GET IT! 😍
Size: 34Lbs/24H Color: Stainless Steel Silver Number of Items: 1
I love this machine, I'm obsessed. If I'm home, it's running. I'm pregnant with my second and I wish I would have known about this machine with my first because all I want to do is chew ice. I don't even drink water anymore 💁♀️, I chew it. I was getting bags of Sonic Ice before this machine and it never froze well, it would Clump up in the freezer and get really hard. I had bought a plastic container to put into the freezer because I planned to make the nugget ice and store it in the freezer (like you see the ladies on tik tok opening their freezer and shoveling out scoops of nugget ice all loose and perfect 🙄) but it does the same thing the Sonic Ice does, Clump up and get hard. I haven't quite figured out how to store it yet So I just eat the ice straight out of the machine, right away. In the morning I turn it on an hour before work while I'm getting ready, it makes enough to fill a 24 oz insulated tumbler and also enough for me to snack on during. I use approximately a half gallon of purified drinking water a day, maybe a little more (easily 4 gallons a week). And that's just making ice for myself, my boyfriend doesn't want anything to do with it, he doesn't like ice like that and the babe is too small, but I WILL fill her little mesh teething thing you put frozen fruit in with nugget ice for her teeth, it fits well in the opening and if it leaks and makes a mess it's just water. IF I had to share this ice with another individual I'm not quite sure how I would take it. I might have to get a second machine because I feel like it makes just enough for me and my needs for the time it takes to makes it. Also, the consistency and texture when biting this ice is very satisfying... it's like biting into a very compacted snowball, if you can remember as a kid, or as an adult.. ha. That's probably what keeps me so addicted to this ice is the texture. But again, that's the texture of it coming straight out of the machine. Not after sitting in a liquid or frozen in the freezer, because both of those will change the consistency. I haven't had any problems with it, I've had it for just short of 2 months and if it ever broke I would get a replacement in a heartbeat. The pictures are just to give you an idea of production time, it's 15 minutes after being turned on, not 15 minutes after starting producing I would say it starts to produce within 5 to 8 minutes. Oh & I'll run the cleaning cycle once a week but I'm afraid to put bleach in it ( I'm pretty sure I read to do that somewhere) so I just put really hot water from the sink in it and let it do its thing, not sure if it's cleaning anything but I've never found any bits or particles or dirt or any kind of contaminant in the ice or in the ice machine ... show more

  • Chewy ice!!!
Size: 34Lbs/24H Color: Stainless Steel Black Number of Items: 1
So I am anemic and eat ice constantly, have for years!! I first purchased a bullet ice maker but unfortunately it crapped the bed after a year of everyday use of 8/24 hrs a day of ice making ( expected tho with the amount of usage). I had been looking at the nugget ice machines for awhile now bc I love chewy ice. I finally came across this machine during Labor Day and it was on sale along with a coupon of $20off!!!! I read the reviews and compared this machine to a ton of others and they were satisfactory, I also wanted an ice machine that was made in the USA. After much research I discovered this was in fact, so I purchased it! I received it and loved it. It was small, sleek, and the texture of ice was so delicious!! Was just what I was looking for CHEWY!!! After using for about 3 wks it started making a weird noise and no longer made any ice. I had purchased the warranty for 3 years, which I’m glad I did. I immediately contacted the company and they were soooo good! They replied quickly and got a new machine sent out to be fast!! I love this machine the quality of the ice is soooo yummy and soft!! It makes a full basket of ice in about an hour and a half. It is a little wet when it first is made but I let it set in the basket and transfer to the bag and it’s fine. I have read some reviews and ppl were complaining how it didn’t keep the ice frozen in the basket..no it doesn’t but it’s not expected to. But for the price, versatility, capacity of ice it Makes, and the performance of this machine for being so small is amazing!!!! Also the customer service of the company is exceptional!!! I would definitely recommend this product!! ... show more

  • The whole “Nugget Ice Thing” (There should be a better name.) The whole “Nugget Ice Thing” (There should be a better name.)
Size: 34Lbs/24H Color: Stainless Steel Silver Number of Items: 1
I’ve had this machine for about two months. I’m no ice “scientist” but I do have some knowledge on this topic. In my opinion this machine does not produce what the industry considers to be “nugget ice”. Nugget ice is made from “flakes” of ice that are compressed into, well…. nuggets. Basically, made of shaved ice like that used for snow cones. The result is usually varying length cylindrical pieces of “ice”. Since they are made from ice flakes, it is easy to understand how these are soft to chew and readily absorb liquid and take on its flavor. Machines that make this type of ice are typically very expensive. (There is a commercial nugget ice maker at my office and it costs around $5000.00.) I was recently in the hospital, only able to consume "ice chips". In this case it was nugget ice that the y gave me. This machine however, produces what appears to be similar to crushed ice. To me, that id better than ice cubes, but it’s not what I know to be nugget ice. Speed: It starts making ice very quickly. I was surprised. I don't know if it makes as much as advertised. Noise: You don’t want this in your bedroom. It is fairly noisy. It doesn’t produce noise constantly. Only when it is making ice. With my somewhat cheesy Radio Shack level meter, it measures about 51 dBA SPL at about 1 meter away. Not horrible, but some people may be annoyed with the noise level. Conclusion: I have an ice maker in my refrigerator, but I also have well water so I don’t like the taste of ice made with that. That was one reason I purchased this machine. If you are ok with something that resembles crushed ice and don’t mind a little noise, this machine may be just what you need. If you want a true “nugget ice” experience, you will need to look elsewhere and probably pay more. UPDATE: The company wrote and offered a refund, but I decided to keep the machine. After about 13 months of continuous use it started emitting a loud screeching sound. Thought it might be the fan, replaced that (I'm an engineer), but it started screeching again. After being inside the thing, and seeing where components are located, the sound appears to be coming from where the water pump is located. Not going to spend any more money on it, so it will be heading to the dump to be recycled. So, it worked well up to that point. Would have hoped for longer life. ... show more

  • Ingenious design
Size: 34Lbs/24H Color: Stainless Steel Black Number of Items: 1
Purchased for the wife. I really had no idea about what was a good design or bad, only the ice size seemed to matter to the better half. What I got was a really cool designed ice maker that works. Getting into the weeds now: there are two types of ice, wet and dry. Dry is similar to what you get from an ice tray made at home. Wet is what you get from this machine. That is not a bad thing. The water reservoir also holds the ice basket. You can pour the water through the empty basket or pull the basket to add water if it holds ice. The water is pumped into the freezing tube built into the back side of the unit, where it is pushed up by water pressure as it freezes and as it exits the tube, a steal pin breaks the ice off which then slides into the basket for use. As it sits there, it will melt a little bit which allows that water to the be returned to the freezing unit. As it does that it also pre-chills the water which makes freezing more efficient and slightly faster. If all the water put in the unit is allowed to be made into ice it will begin backing up the little chute until it blocks that little steal pin that breaks off the formed ice. This stops the unit. Once enough of the ice has melted to clear that chute, it will start up again and reform the ice. Cons: if you keep making ice for use later by removing the ice to a freezer and refilling the machine to make more it will just keep churning and you will be happy. Until you discover that the ice you moved into the freezer has turned into a block of ice, because as I said in the beginning, this ice is WET. As far as I can tell, my wife has given up on trying this and just turns it on or calls me to do so if she is out. She uses what she wants and either lets it do its thing or turns it off. I filter my own water so I will not have any buildup issues. If you (or I) were to use tap water, I can see all kinds of issues with buildup over time. The unit is really easy to clean and use. The ease of use is simple if you follow the manual, it needs access to air along the sides and back to dissipate heat. You cannot jam this into a tight spot blocking airflow nor can you run it while it is covered or enclosed. If you do, it will be destroyed or at least dramatically decreasing the lifespan. As built, it should last long enough to get out the value placed into it with purchase. It could last even longer but in today’s day and age, that is not so likely. ... show more
