ecozy 2" Clear Ice Ball Maker Countertop with CrystalFlux Technology, 4 pcs in 40 Mins, 144 pcs/Day, Sphere Ice Maker with Automatic Water Supply, Self-Cleaning, Enhanced Insulation for Whiskey Bar

This is my favorite Ice maker of all time. It makes the good ice and it stays frozen as long as you keep the machine on. It's large while still fitting on your counter so it makes a lot of ice. It's also just a beautiful machine. We love the digital set up, the lights and how you can control it with an app on your phone. Very big upside is that it's self cleaning and tells you when to clean it!! It is so worth the price.

This is such a great ice maker for such a low price, my spouse and I absolutely love it and can't really go without it now. It works so well and makes ice so quickly. Easy to fill up and just easy in general. I love this thing. I've had it about a month now and use it all day every day and it still is working perfectly. It also came with a big sheet of cute/hilarious stickers, some of them have nothing to do with ice makers whatsoever but the brand must make other things besides this and just put a sticker sheet in anything they send lol, it's a cute touch though. We put one of the stickers on the machine and it looks like it belongs there. You do need to buy de-scaler/cleaner for it, the ice will start tasting weird if you don't clean it out and cycle some water through it afterwards. The only small complaint is that I wish there was a place to put the scoop, we just have to set it on our counter. At least it does stand upright, the end of the handle is flat so you can stand it up next to the machine. It would just be nice if there were a different spot on the machine for it to go. Other than that, I love this! It gets me drinking water wayyyy more than I usually would... I have a hard time drinking water if it's not cold and now that we have this I'm drinking ice water constantly. Oh, also the machine is a tiny bit on the loud side, I really don't mind though at all, it doesn't bother me. My spouse had been worried before it was delivered that it would be annoyingly loud and she says it doesn't bother her either, it's not as bothersome as she thought it would be.

Updated: Worth noting that it looks like there are several different machines in these reviews. This one is specific to the ecozy 2" Clear Ice Ball Maker with CrystalFlux technology. TL/DR version: Pros: Fast Makes a lot of ice Works fine with filtered water Pretty simple to use Cons: Very large footprint Kind of loud Ice balls are smaller than I'd like Inconsistent shape of ice balls The long version: I initially left a 2 star review based solely on my frustration with an aggressive sticker that is clearly intended to be removed but took me 10 minutes to do so. After about a week with it, and some contact with customer service, I'm updating my review to be more reflective of the product overall. Honestly, this is more likely a 3.5 star, but I'm rounding up because their customer service was so responsive. I'm typically a bourbon drinker. If I'm feeling really fancy, I'll have an old-fashioned, but there's so much sugar in them, I usually just stick to bourbon. I've had an spherical ice mold that works pretty well, but is very time consuming and takes about 24 hours for a single ball. I wanted something that would be easier and faster. After a handful of online reviews and videos, I settled on this. I was excited to get it, and shipping was pretty fast. The product box was inside a larger Amazon box with no additional filler or padding, so the extra box was pretty unnecessary. The retail packaging is solid enough that the machine arrived in good condition with no cosmetic issues. My first impression before unpacking is that it's pretty heavy. My second impression after unpacking is that it's also very large. I've included a couple of pictures of it with my coffee maker to give a sense of size. We have a pretty small kitchen, without a lot of counterspace. So this eats up a good chunk of it. As I was setting it up, the aforementioned sticker was my first irritation. The adhesive on a sticker clearly intended to be removed should not be so aggro. Otherwise, set up and the initial self-clean was easy and quick. I am not running plumbing to it, so I can't comment on that piece. The space available for manual filling is pretty tight. At first I was trying to fill it with a Pyrex measuring pitcher, but it's easier with a glass, though you'll need to probably do it twice to fill to the max line. While running, it's pretty loud. Imagine an oscillating room fan. But you only need to run it while making ice. It doesn't have to be on 24/7. It takes about 40 minutes for the first ice balls to drop. Then about every 30 minutes for another 90 minutes or so, before it runs out of water. At which point you'll either need to add more water, or just turn it off. I tried both distilled water and water filtered from my refrigerator. It seems to make no real difference in terms of clarity of the ice. Both came out mostly clear, with small visual defects. The ice balls themselves are pretty small. They're about the right size for my smallest whiskey glasses, but I have some larger ones that they don't make a very impressive fit for. The uniformity of the balls is a little bit all over the place. Some of the other reviews mention that they get more perfectly spherical over several batches, but I haven't seen that to be the case. Sometimes they have the divot in them, sometimes they don't. I've had a couple come out more like blobs than spheres. Even the most perfectly formed ones are pretty lumpy. If you're expecting a perfectly round, perfectly smooth ice sphere like you would get in a fancy high-end bar, these are not that. Fine for personal use, but I wouldn't plan on blowing anyone away with them. One thing I was aware of but should be pointed out is that this is not a freezer, and will not serve as long-term storage for your ice balls. It stays cool enough for the ice to last probably through a party, but it's definitely not cold enough to hold them for more than a few hours. The ice begins to slowly melt immediately after dispensing, so if you're wanting it to last a day or longer, you'll definitely want to have a dedicated container for them in your freezer. It comes with ice trays that you can use, but I think they take up too much space for what they hold. So I am using a reusable silicone, zip-lock freezer bag. The machine itself seems to be well manufactured and solid. It's nice looking, just very large. The drip tray feels like an engineering after-thought, but it does what it's supposed to do. Overall, this does what I need it to do, but there are a few things I wish it did better. The number one thing I'd change would be larger spheres. Number two would be more consistently shaped. Number three would be a much smaller footprint. Otherwise, it's a good product.

Ive had this for a year, we keep it on constantly. No problems yet. It fills a 30oz yeti style jug full of ice and refills the ice basket in less than 1/2 hour. We're very happy with it. Although, I wish it held more water than approx 100oz as we are constantly adding water in this 2 person household. An added bonus, we do find it makes a very pleasing set of sounds when the ice is dropping. Not loud or jarring.

I have had this ice maker for close to three and a half years. I have never had an issue and it's quite the workhorse. Zero leakage. I highly recommend.

Love it, but wish that the size of the ice is bigger

منتج جدا ممتاز وعملي وسهل جدا وخدمة جدا راقية من امازون.

I got this little ice machine for my kitchen a little while back, mainly because we were having friends over and I always seem to run out of ice. The box it came in was a decent size, and it fits neatly on my countertop without taking up too much space. It's got a sleek design, so it doesn't look out of place either. Setting it up was really simple, just add water and plug it in. The machine works surprisingly fast. I was a bit sceptical about the "9 cubes in 6 mins" claim, but it genuinely is that quick. It churns out a basket of ice in no time, which is brilliant if you need a lot in a hurry. You can also choose between two sizes of ice, which is a nice touch. I usually just stick to the larger size for drinks. The self-cleaning feature is also a massive win for me. It means a lot less hassle and scrubbing. What I really like about it is the sheer convenience. You don't have to remember to fill up ice trays, and you have a steady supply of fresh ice whenever you need it. It's been perfect for making iced coffees in the morning or for filling up a jug of water when it's warm. The ice cubes are nice and clear, and they don't have any strange flavours. The only slight drawback I've found is that it does make a bit of noise while it's running, a kind of whirring sound as it drops the ice. It's not loud enough to be annoying, but you definitely know it's there. Also, because the ice is just in the basket inside the machine, it will eventually melt if you don't transfer it to the freezer. So you can't just leave it to build up all day. Overall, I'd say this is a great little gadget. It's ideal for anyone who entertains a lot or just wants to have an endless supply of ice without any hassle. It's perfect for a kitchen, an office, or even a bar area. It just does what it says on the tin, and it's been really useful.

This machine is very compact and very efficient - makes ice cubes in a few minutes - excellent product!

More often than not, I forget to fill the ice cube trays and when I need ice, I have none. This changed that situation completely, now when I need ice, all I need to do is wait around 10min to get enough for the first drink, while a lot more is produced while I drink it. Comes with an ice bag too, that I filled with ice and put it in the freezer. Love it!
