Customer Reviews

Very Cool!
Clearly this is NOT a toy so the 'fun' etc. ratings above should be ignored. Little Johnny should be kept well away from the machine!

Ice machines, even table-top versions such as this, are a lot heavier that you would expect.

The ice-making capabilities of this model are very good. Once it starts churning out the bullet-shaped ice there is no stopping it until the water runs out. When this happens a (too) loud beep warns of the fact - shame there is no way to reduce the volume of this.

The downsides include the weight of the machine - you will not want to move it more than once without assistance (after all, it is a mini fridge) so ensure you have the space to accommodate it. Secondly, the machine's footprint is larger than you may envisage (though typical for its type), so measure up your allocated space first.

Excellent value.

Not a toy
This is much bigger than I expected, but who's fault is that. It's about twice the size of a Panasonic breadmaker and much heavier, so don't buy it if you have to keep getting it in and out of a cupboard. Mine sits on a worktop in a corner and isn't too obtrusive. It produces ice after about 20 minutes, and will produce enough for a party in a couple of hours. It cannot be left on permanently, so it's best to make what you need and store plenty in the freezer, leaving ice for daily use in an insulated box in the fridge. For £100 I think it's a bargain and I would recommend it.

Not very impressed
Its supposed to be quiet, but mine rattles like an 1950's refrigerator.
Tried to take the back off to fix the rattle, but it has tamperproof screws, so that wasn't possible.
We had to put it downstairs out of the way.

The main problem is that once the ice box is full the machine switches off and so unless the ice is removed straight away it melts. This means that I have to store the stuff in the freezer. But this was the main reason I bought the thing in the first place, so my wife can use all of the freezer space for food and not for my ice...

Should've stuck to freezer bags!

Pointless and a complete waste of money!
