Frigidaire Compact Countertop Ice Maker, Makes 26 Lbs. of Bullet Shaped Ice Cubes Per Day, Silver Stainless

So far, so good! It’s a different type of ‘pellet’ ice than the Sonic cylinders you’re used to. This makes square pellets, which are equally as satisfying. Side note - Costco currently sells this machine in black, which is what I would have preferred, so look around before buying if blue and off white are not for you (colors offered on Amazon).We had the original OneBuild Opal for 4-years, and loved it. But it died suddenly last week. This Fridgidaire machine was half the price, so if it makes it a couple years, I’ll be happy!It did not come with the extra water tank we had on the Opal, but I was able to use that old sink on the new machine - WINNING!Will add photos shortly!

This is the best ice maker I have had so far. I have purchased at least 4 other brands/types and this is the best. It is not the most expensive which makes it even better. It is easy to clean and it produces ice quickly. Some of my machines have been noisy but this one, though it does make some noise as the ice drops, is quieter. The ice is soft and chewy, just like I want it to be. It seems to have a longer life span than my others as well. I am very pleased so far.

The media could not be loaded. Please excuse my outdated countertops, but I absolutely love this ice machine. It’s like sonic ice more dense. I find ice like sonic to melt quickly, but this is dense enough that it does not. I originally got it because I’m an ice chewer, and this was recommended by my dentist. I absolutely love it. The cleaning procedure is easy and it keeps up with two of us in the house. We go through about a gallon of water a day using this machine. Full disclosure we bought the extended warranty as well.Be prepared to pay attention to the measurements when we got it in, was bigger than I originally imagined. The noise level is about the same as the refrigerator, with the occasional is that you, Satan sound here and there. I will update if anything happens to the machine in the next year.April update: so the “Is that you Satan” noises have begun to get louder and louder. And now occasional it growls at me. Yes Growls. I googled it and that’s what people said ice machines can do (growl) when a compressor pump is starting to decline. It’s still making ice just fine, but I’m staring to thank my stars we bought the warranty (just in case)July 2023 update : new pic shows that the power light has now burned out. I no longer have to worry about wondering if Satan is in my kitchen. He definitely is the sounds are coming from this machine now make your head turn. It’s still working it’s still making ice he just comes with a concert. If you’re going to buy this brand, I highly suggest getting the warranty. I have no doubt we’re going to have to use it.DEC2023As you can tell from the new video, we have a solo artist that serenades us every day all day. Instrument of choice : MAC Truck. This ice maker is so loud now and it’s just annoying. The light that indicates Ice, someday it’s on Some days not even though it doesn’t get turned off. We have started to notice that occasionally it just shut itself off as well. The whole machine just stops. Always tends to happen to so that when we wake up in the morning, there’s no ice.. the biggest problem is it will start to make ice slowly suddenly and then quit making it while it’s still running though. I have to put hot water or lukewarm water in it run a cleaning cycle and then it’ll make ice for about 24 hours before it freezes up again I’m assuming it’s freezing up. Contacted manufacturer found out it’s over $70 to ship the icemaker to them that you have to pay for if you want a warranty claim. Additionally, the extended warranty we bought want to help us until the manufactures warranty goes out but if you look at our paperwork, it says that extended warranty starts the day of purchase. I kinda had a feeling this would happen considering we paid $11 for the extended warranty and I think now it’s over 100. I have the feeling this ice machines on its last leg and I’m really disappointed that for an ice machine over $300. This is what we got. Kind of wish I had got an opal now. I have now reduced the rating from five stars to three because in less than a year this is unacceptable. Like I said, I have a feeling am going to be on the phone a lot trying to get this fixed. I would actually look somewhere else for an ice machine now, I would not recommend this oneMarch 2024: this has started to make what I call soft ice. It’s not freezing all that well and melts quick and it’s like a shaved ice consistency. Most of the lights in the front no longer light up so I have to pay attention to what it needs or there’s no ice when it does work.When it run making ice or cleaning the video shows you the god awful sound it makes. Now I get a chance to use the warranty I bought and review it. Let’s see if they still honor it since we only paid 11$ for it and it’s well over 100 now. Lost another star. Just stay away from this model I wish I would have.After further investigation by chewing on more ice I found black plastic in my ice (see pic) yep ladies and gentlemen, it has broke. That is why it’s making soft ice it’s broke. So now I have the wonderful job of getting with the insurance company to see if they’re gonna give me the runaround or fix it. Amazon seems to think they’re going to refund me my money. I should’ve bought the opal!

5 Stars – Great Icemaker!We purchased the Frigidaire icemaker a few months ago, and it’s been fantastic from day one. As soon as we plugged it in, it started making ice—quickly and consistently. The ice it produces is not only perfect in texture but also surprisingly delicious!We followed the manufacturer’s instructions for the initial cleaning before use and have kept up with the recommended monthly cleanings (thanks to my wife staying on top of it). So far, so good—no issues at all. This is a very nice, well-built machine, and we’re extremely happy with the purchase. Highly recommend it to anyone looking for a reliable countertop icemaker.

Nice unit holds a lot of ice and water. Emailed customer support and ask if it was best to leave the machine on all the time or turn off and restart in the morning, they sent me a return email asking me to describe the problem better and to send pictures and videos. I emailed back no problem I just ask a question and repeated the question. The return email to go through all I get is "Sorry we are unable to deliver your message to support2curtis.com and that is the one I sent to and got a reply now nothing

Works Great. It's quiet. Looks nice. Was delivered nicely boxed and on time. Bought at a very good price. No reason to give it anything but a FIVE for now. If it stops working or starts acting up, I will update review. :)

I bought this ice machine for my Dad for Father’s Day. He absolutely loves it!

Makes great ice and does so very quickly. I have kept it clean and well maintained, but the indicator lights (power, clean, ice, add water) stopped working at about 8 months in. That makes it hard to know the ice makers status. Sometimes the ice maker just stops making ice, but I have no idea why, so I have to cycle power (unplug/plug) and press the "Ice" button and it will start working again... While I love the style, size and quality of the ice, if/when I have to replace it, I would likely go with something different simply due to these issues.
