Collection: Countertop Ice Makers

Do these ice makers need a water line or plumbing?

No. The ice makers in this collection are countertop, portable models. The 33 lb. Countertop Ice Maker is listed as requiring no plumbing, and the 27 lb. Portable Countertop Ice Makers have a compact design you fill with water. Just place the unit on a flat counter, add water and plug it in. See each product page for fill and drain instructions.

How much ice can they make, and how fast?

The 33 lb. Countertop Ice Maker with Built-in Filter makes up to 33 lbs. of ice per day, with cycles as short as 10 minutes. The 27 lb. Portable Countertop Ice Maker makes up to 27 lbs. per day, with cycles as short as 7 minutes, and holds up to 1.5 lbs. of ice at a time.

What’s the difference between the 27 lb. and 33 lb. ice makers?

The 33 lb. model adds more premium features: a built-in water filter with a 60-day countdown reminder, adjustable ice thickness, a 20-minute self-cleaning cycle, a programmable 24-hour timer and square ice. The 27 lb. Portable model is simpler and more compact, with a digital control panel, a bin-full indicator, two ice sizes and a choice of colors.

How do I keep my countertop ice maker clean?

The 33 lb. Countertop Ice Maker has a 20-minute self-cleaning cycle and a built-in filter with a 60-day countdown timer, which reminds you when to change it. For the 27 lb. Portable models, follow the cleaning steps in the user manual on the product page. Regular cleaning helps keep ice fresh and tasting good.
