Opinion by Product Tester

After using it personally, I can say that this portable ice-making machine is an ideal choice for homes and small offices. It’s completely automatic, hence very easy to use. You just need to add 2.2-liter water and turn it on, you’ll get multiple batches of ice. One thing I personally loved about this ice maker is its control & warning system, it will let you know when the water reservoir is empty or when the ice bucket is full. It will automatically stop making ice so you can empty the bucket. Overall, it’s a great ice machine with tons of features and it is priced perfectly.
