This countertop ice maker is a game-changer for anyone who loves chilled drinks. It’s incredibly compact and fits perfectly on my kitchen counter without taking up much space. The self-cleaning function is a huge bonus, making maintenance so much easier. I love how quickly it produces ice—within minutes, I have fresh, perfectly shaped cubes ready to use. It’s also surprisingly quiet, which is great for home use. Whether I’m hosting a gathering or just enjoying a cool drink, this ice maker is fast, efficient, and convenient. A must-have addition for anyone who values cold beverages!

Works good. Easy to use. Doesn’t take a lot of space. Looks sleek. Easy to clean and makes good ice

This countertop ice maker is such a game-changer! It’s super easy to use, and having fresh ice ready in just six minutes is awesome, especially for parties, camping, or just when I need a quick ice refill. It’s also pretty quiet, which I didn’t expect, and it makes these perfect little pellet ice cubes that I love for drinks. The self-cleaning function is a huge plus—just press a button, and it takes care of itself, which makes it so convenient to maintain. It also comes with an ice scoop and bags, which are super handy for keeping extra ice ready in the freezer. It’s compact enough to fit nicely on my counter without taking up too much space, but it still produces a lot of ice for its size. Highly recommend it for anyone who wants quick, easy ice at home or on the go!

Item is easy to use and cranks out ice. It is a bit noisy when it runs and not real fast. We need to run it three times or so to completely fill up our ice tray in freezer. (Refrigerator ice maker quit after nine years of use.) Gets the job done and ice is solid, not watery when done.

This ice machine has been working great! I am impressed with how quiet it works, and with how quick it fills up the bin with ice nuggets. It really is much quieter than I expected. After reading other reviews, I was skeptical, but my experience has been positive. It’s been quite quiet. And very quick to produce ice. Overall, I am very happy with this purchase. My only negative issue is that the ice buildup as you can see in the photo may require you to move the ice around in the catch bin so it doesn’t back up. It tends to back up in the middle if you’re not on top of it. I understand the mechanics of it, due the the opening being in the middle. I wish the ice nuggets would spread out on their own, but overall, I like this ice machine.

Nugget Ice Maker Countertop, Portable Crushed Sonic Ice Machine, Self Cleaning Ice Makers with One-Click -- My biggest complaint with is unit is the advertising. PORTABLE? Not really. Needs a power source if used outdoors, it has no handle for easy porting, but it is light enough for one of the big kids to carry. SELF-CLEANING? Not really. Someone needs to be around to put in fresh water & any recommended cleaning solution, unplug the reservoir and drain the cleaning solution waters , and then add fresh rinse water a couple of times, however, the machine does not need to be disassembled. The ice basket and scoop are easily hand washed. The only ice flavor manufacturer approved is fresh, clean water. I've seen social media vids making flavored, brightly colored ice. Self-cleaning? Not likely, somebody will have to be there to change the cleaning water. ICE IN 7 MINS, UP TO 34# CLEAR ICE PER DAY: In 7 mins there will be a few little chucks that would dilute but not chill. In 24 hours "up to 34 pounds"... they're talkin' workin' shifts, and fudgin' "up to" that "34 pound" number. Like other reviewer comments, I agree it is annoying that a basket of ice will have melted ice water running out the bottom. Problem is the reservoir space is just not cold enough. Problem is I did not spend enough $$$. I LOVE MY LEAKY BASKET OF ICE.

First time ice machine owner here. I was so nervous buying this because my husband is so picky, but had to get it because he loves Sonic ice. We are both very pleased and have gone through tons of ice already. Best decision I've made!!! Quickly makes Sonic ice, very easy to use, great for mixed drinks or using in a small blender to make smoothies. I would recommend especially if you like chewing on ice.

We as a family use a lot of ice. We already had a water dispenser from Sparkletts but wanted something that made ice too. This machine looked great. Could use the Sparkletts bottles and had space on it counters for the rather large machine. The machine is loud when the ice option is on. Makes ice pretty fast. Don't have to keep the ice function in all the time. Just when you know you are going to need it. The water dispenser dispenses a cup of water at a time. So if you're going to fill up a tumbler, you have to keep pressing the button until the tumbler is filled. Like I said I'm the title, an engineering flaw. A big issue we've had is the cork screw mechanism inside the ice maker. It came unscrewed from the motor and would not turn. This caused the ice to not come out. Trying to screw it back into the motor was hard at first. Had to empty the ice to work on it. Then I figured out a way to tighten it. When you press the button for the ice, the cork screw turns one way. When you press it again, it stops but will then turn the opposite direction for a good rotation or two. So, you have to keep hitting the button so that it would do the rotation enough times it would tighten back into the motor. Something I have to check every now and then and make sure it's not coming loose again. Other than that, the machine works great.

This ice maker is great. It's easy to use- fill the reservoir with water, place the basket in, turn it on, and select the ice size. Minutes later, it starts making ice. Of course it starts to melt right away- it doesn't claim to be a refrigerator. Note- alot of these ice makers don't actually refrigerate the ice, either. Once the ice melts out of the basket, the water returns to the reservoir, and if enough collects in the reservoir, it'll remake that into more ice. If you leave it on, it just perpetually makes ice from the melted water over and over so that you either always have ice or are just a short time away from having ice. I think its great so far and is way better than fumbling with crap ass ice trays.

I like how easy it is to use and how quick it makes ice! We used this ice machine in our camper for two weeks and kept it running most of the time and it did not disappoint. Like others have said, it is not a freezer so you have to use the ice right away. We kept an ice bucket in our plug in cooler and it kept the ice overnight.

***Edited So I wanted it to work on my solar powered deep cycle battery which powers everything else including my laptop and blowdryer, but I guess I needed a 1000w inverter (mine was only 500 w) to power up the startup on the compressor of the ice maker. We were at our cottage with only solar power. When I tried the ice maker at home it worked fine, but on the solar powered battery it went through the cleaning cycle but didn't turn on to make ice. So I guess we'll have to use it only when we have direct power and not use it with our solar battery. So the problem wasn't with the ice maker, we just didn't have a strong enough inverter on the battery. We used the ice maker for a BBQ party at home and it kept up making ice really well. I just transferred the ice to my fridge to keep it frozen as it only stays frozen for a little while in the ice maker.

Its works ok tkes a while to make alot of ice but for the price xant exspect perfection the cubes are pretty good size

This lasted me one weekend camping and hasn’t worked since. I wouldn’t waste your money.
