Overview

A refrigerated ice-making circuit inside a stainless steel body forms small nuggets of ice and fills the included basket. It is a countertop unit, with a self-cleaning function listed for upkeep.

Soft, chewable pellet ice is the reason to shop this machine, and it ships with bags and a scoop for storing and serving a batch. Water reservoir size and noise level are not given in the listing, so a bedroom or office buyer has to check elsewhere.

Who it's for

A kitchen counter, a party table or a camper with a power outlet gets a steady supply of soft ice. Anyone who must know the sound level in advance should confirm it elsewhere first.

Pros and cons

Pros
  • Soft chewable nugget ice
  • Self-cleaning function listed
  • Scoop and basket included
  • Bags included for storage
Cons
  • Reservoir size not listed
  • Noise level never stated
  • Warranty wording gives no term
  • Countertop use only

Performance notes

Output depends on how well the refrigeration circuit sheds heat, so a warm room or a tight corner lowers the daily figure. Soft pellet ice has more surface area than dense cubes, which cools a drink quickly but melts sooner.
