Great once running, but setup needs extra parts
Setup can require additional parts depending on the water and waste configuration, including a pump to lift drain water, a fitting for the water inlet hose, and a water filter. An internal hose was not seated properly at the factory and caused water to spray inside. The panel setup is difficult due to few buttons and a simple display. Once running, it fills a container overnight in about 12 hours, is very quiet when not close to it, keeps ice cold without recycling or draining, and has a steel exterior. A low-priced option for making ice in volume.
Pros
- + Large capacity, fills container overnight
- + Very quiet when not close
- + Ice stays cold without recycling or draining
- + Steel exterior
- + Low price for a commercial-type ice maker
Cons
- − Setup can require additional parts
- − Internal hose not seated properly at factory
- − Panel setup difficult due to few buttons and simple display

Fast arrival, easy setup, thick ice cubes
This ice maker arrived faster than expected and is easy to set up and use, with clear instructions. It is placed in a garage on a make table and drains into a 5-gallon bottle. Water runs through three filters, and an extra cleaning cycle with the tub plug removed helps clear manufacturing debris. Ice cubes come out thick and do not break apart easily. The LED blue light is a nice feature. The only drawback is that the temperature display is in Celsius.
Pros
- + fast arrival
- + easy setup and use
- + clear instructions
- + thick ice cubes
- + LED blue light feature
Cons
- − temperature display is in Celsius

- + Holds about 20–25 lbs of ice
- + Can fill a 20 lb bag in a couple of hours
- + Good for large-quantity ice needs

Bin Capacity Falls Short of Claims
The stated bin capacity is misleading. With ice removed only twice a day, the bin never holds more than about 10 pounds, usually closer to 8, because of how the ice fall switch works. Reaching the advertised 30 pounds requires moving ice away from the switch several times a day. An older unit from a different manufacturer consistently holds 20 pounds with the same twice-daily routine. Returning the unit was not possible after the packaging was discarded. Not a good choice for anyone who empties the bin only twice a day.
Cons
- − Bin capacity far below advertised claims
- − Requires frequent ice movement to reach stated capacity
- − Not suitable for twice-daily emptying
