Product review (5 stars): Excellent Ice Maker - Highly Recommended
This Ivation Portable Ice Maker works well and has filled a need I didn't even know we had. We have a small coffee and snack area for our customers to enjoy while shopping and since we have this machine we now also offer ice cold water. Providing bottled water was very expensive so now we keep a pitcher filled with distilled water (the same water we buy by gallon and use in this machine) and ice, which has been a huge hit with my employees and customers alike.

The machine is easy to use with very simple instructions. It has a relatively small footprint and makes a complete cycle of small cubes (our favorite of the two sizes) every 8-minutes or so. While the unit is not really a chiller (other than the ice making elements), it is well insulated so the ice cubes last a long time. The clever design allows the melting ice to drip into the fill tank, which is then used to to make more ice. We let this run all day since it has an automatic shut of when the hopper is full. I also like the appropriate sized scoop that is included with the unit.

This makes a great addition to a home bar or small kitchen!

Highly Recommended!
