EUHOMY Countertop Ice Maker Machine with Handle, 26lbs in 24Hrs, 9 Ice Cubes Ready in 6 Mins, Auto-Cleaning Portable Ice Maker with Basket and Scoop, for Home/Kitchen/Camping/RV. (Pink)ClimatePartner certified

I bought this EUHOMY for my office and I love it. It’s compact but mighty—churning out ice faster than I expected and with almost no noise.Fit & Footprint:Despite the 26 lb/day capacity, the unit has a small footprint and tucks neatly into a corner of my desk. The handle makes it portable and easy to store when not in use, and it actually looks sleek—no clunky industrial vibes here.Performance & Quality:This thing makes 9 bullet-style ice cubes in just about 6 minutes. The first few batches are a bit wetter/softer, but it quickly finds its rhythm and cranks out solid, clear ice. The auto-clean feature is a big win—just hold the power button, and it runs a cleaning cycle without needing to fuss with vinegar or scrubbing.Compared to Expectations:I expected some startup noise or plastic-y feel at this price point, but it’s surprisingly quiet and feels well-made. I also thought the “basket and scoop” would be cheap extras, but both are practical and sturdy enough for daily use.Pros:• Ice is ready in minutes• Quiet operation• Great size for kitchens, campers, or RVs• Handle makes it easy to move• Auto-cleaning is hassle-free• Looks nicer than most budget modelsCons or Caveats:• It doesn’t keep ice frozen indefinitely—if you don’t transfer the ice to a freezer, it will slowly melt and recycle (as expected for this style of machine)• Needs a bit of clearance to open the lid fully, so be mindful of cabinet heightPerfect For:Entertaining, family households, summer BBQs, or anyone who doesn’t have a built-in ice maker. Also great for RVs or cabins where a full fridge isn’t available.Tips for Best Experience:• Fill with cold water for faster batches• Transfer finished ice to a freezer if you’re stockpiling• Give it 15–20 minutes to hit full stride after plugging in• Rinse it out between uses and run auto-clean regularly

This ice maker has been a life saver. It gets HOT where I live, and I need ice for my drinks. I live in an apartment and when the ice maker went out in the fridge, the management wouldn't fix it (non-essential) so I bought this unit. I use it on a regular basis. It's pretty easy to keep clean with its built in cleaning cycle and wiping out the basin, unlike store bought ice, I've never had a batch that tasted funky. It's not too loud either during the process with the most noise generated when the ice drops. I can leave it running in the background with no issues. Not sure on speed as I have nothing to compare it to, but the basket is a little on the small size, so you'll have to empty it a number of times to get a fair amount of ice. If you want something to make BAGS of ice, this unit isn't for you. If you want something for the occasional drink, its perfect.

I’ve been using this countertop ice maker for a few weeks now, and overall, it’s a solid machine that performs well for the price. It’s convenient, fairly quick, and produces a steady flow of ice. The “6-minute ice-making” feature is impressive on paper—and it really does start producing ice within that time—but there are some things to know before relying on it for constant, ready-to-use cubes.The main downside is the type of ice it makes. The cubes aren’t completely solid; they come out more like a wet freeze, so they tend to melt quickly if not handled immediately. Because of that, you have to be diligent about transferring the cubes to your freezer right away. Even then, since they’re so moist, they tend to freeze together in clumps, which means you’ll often need to break them apart before using.I’ve found the best way to use this machine is to run it while you’re in the kitchen for an hour or so. That way, you can collect batches of ice regularly and get them into the freezer before they start melting. It’s not quite a “set it and forget it” appliance—you do have to babysit it a bit.Also worth noting: it’s a bit bulky for a countertop model. Make sure you have space for it, especially if you plan to keep it out permanently.In short, this ice maker works well and is a good value for the price, but it does take some management to get the most out of it. If you’re okay with a little hands-on attention, it’ll serve you well.
