Our verdict

A small countertop ice maker with two cube sizes and fast batches. The tiny tank and bin mean frequent refills and emptying, and the listing disagrees with itself on stainless versus plastic.

Overview

Portable countertop ice machine with a touch panel, selectable large or small cubes and an automatic self-cleaning function. A small water tank feeds the machine, finished ice collects in a visible bin, and an ice scoop and basket are supplied.

Cube size choice is the unusual part: larger cubes for whiskey and chilling food, smaller ones for quick cooling of coffee or tea. The limits are the small reservoir and bin, a modest daily total and conflicting material descriptions.

Who it's for

Home users, campers and small bars that want ice on demand in a small footprint. Anyone hosting large gatherings should look at a machine with a bigger bin.

Performance notes

Each batch forms in minutes and drops into a small visible bin, so the bin needs frequent emptying. Cube size changes how fast drinks cool, with smaller cubes chilling faster. Touch controls start the cycle, and the self-clean function handles the water path.

Frequently asked questions

What sizes of ice does the COWSAR ice maker make?

It offers two selectable sizes, larger for whiskey and chilling food and smaller for quick cooling of coffee or tea.

How much ice does the bin hold?

The visible storage compartment is small, so expect to empty it often.

Is the body stainless steel?

The title says stainless steel while the material field says plastic, so treat the finish as unconfirmed.
