Nugget Countertop Ice Maker with Soft Chewable Pellet Ice, Pebble Portable Ice Machine, 34Lbs/24H, Self-Cleaning, Sonic Ice Maker, One Button Operation, for Kitchen,Office Stainless Steel Silver

This machine makes truly soft, chewable ice (maybe not the absolute softest ever, but plenty close enough). We've had it a few weeks, use it several hours each evening and so far, so good. If you are an "ice junkie", this churns out plenty of ice for two people to enjoy throughout an evening without running out. If you just want it for a few drinks, etc, I think running it for a couple of hours (while refilling the water occasionally) would make plenty of ice for a handful of people. The reservoir is relatively small for something like hosting a party and expecting this to cover a dozen-plus people's needs for hours. But for our needs, it's a winner. If it lasts a year or more, at this price, I'll consider it a really good purchase. Update 10/6: OK, the noise is quite loud at times (it varies from a low whine to a fairly high pitched and loud whine on occasion). Still enjoying the ice, and still happy with the purchase...but it's pretty loud sometimes.

This is the best ice maker for the money. It is a little bit on the louder side but nothing too terrible. It makes ice quickly. Super easy to use. I really like that it has a light to let you know when it needs water added so you don't have to keep looking.

I couldn't be more obsessed with a product! This is the best ice maker I've ever had! Super easy to clean, refill and empty. The ice is perfect size and it keeps it frozen for pretty long! Even when it does melt, it goes right back into the water fill area. It can be a bit noisy but for me, it's kind if like white noise. Love it!

We've owned this almost two months and have been running it 24/7 since we opened the box. It's just the two of us so it makes plenty of ice for us during the day. We fill it with water 1-2 times a day but are starting to drink a lot more water! I'll try to remember to write a one year review later. I just wish we bought this thing years ago!

Lasted less than 3 months

We love this ice maker, but it only lasted 18 months. It was onehundred fifty, so it ended up costing us about eight dollars a month. If you know going in that you'll only get a year or two out of it, then buy it. We used ours continuously, the ice stayed frozen, any melt was added back to reservoir. The ice never stuck together. It is a bit loud. Wish it lasted longer. 😞

The customer service for this product is unmatched. I had an issue with my ice maker, contacted the company, and they provided a rapid response and a fair resolution to the problem. I would DEFINITELY purchase this product again and would purchase other items provided by this company. The light, crunchy ice is just right for cold beverages. Excellent customer service!

Why did you pick this product vs others?: Great machine! One of the better values I found and works very quickly to produce ice!
