Overview
GE Profile builds this countertop ice maker in stainless steel with a bin and a side water tank. Water is frozen in flakes and compacted into soft nugget ice, and a scoop and drip tray are included.
Nugget ice is the main attraction, along with a tank that cuts down on refills in busy use. The output numbers disagree between the description and the highlight, so trust the highlight line.
Who it's for
Fans of soft ice in drinks and sparkling water will get the most use. Occasional entertainers may do fine with bagged ice.
Pros and cons
- Chewable nugget ice
- Side tank reduces refills
- Stainless steel build
- Output figures conflict
- Large countertop footprint
Performance notes
Flakes are compressed into nuggets, which gives the airy texture, and output is measured per day while the bin stays small. Heavy use therefore draws the bin down faster than it refills.
