Portable Countertop Ice Makers Produce Ice in Under 10 Minutes

A portable ice maker is ideal for those whose freezer ice maker cannot keep up with their ice needs or require ice on the go. These smaller ice makers can potentially produce up to 35 pounds of ice a day, oftentimes with the first batch ready in just 10 minutes. This means no more hassling with heavy, inconvenient bags of ice. A countertop ice maker fits easily on a home bar or in an RV camper without taking up too much extra space. However there are a few important variables when it comes to portable ice makers. Look through these countertop appliances and their features in order to try and properly find the perfect portable ice make for your home.

Production Capacity

The amount of ice that your countertop unit can produce in a day is going to be one of the most important attributes that you’ll need to consider while researching which unit to buy. Despite being small in size, these units can sometimes produce a surprising amount of ice in a day. You can find that there are units on the market that produce anywhere from 20 to 36 lbs of ice in 24 hour period. These machines will also generally have the capacity to store an additional 1 or 2 lbs of ice as well. Frequently these machines will work with surprising speed since, sometimes able to produce and have ice cubes ready in as little as 10 minutes from the start of operation.

It is important to remember that while these small machines can produce a deceptively large amount of ice in regards to their size, and even store a small amount, they aren’t freezers. So, while the common countertop ice machine is typically well-insulated, they shouldn’t be relied on to store any amount of ice for long periods of time.

Easy to Move & Use

In addition to the impressive amounts of ice these portable appliances can put out, they’re also designed for countertop use, and as is such, can be moved and placed in different locations with ease. Usually they fall in between the heights of 13 – 16 inches and can be found sometimes as wide as a mere 10 inches. They can even weigh as little as only 20 lbs, which makes moving it around the house or kitchen especially easy. What’s more, these units can be filled with tap or common bottled water.

Countertop units, unlike some of the more complicated commercial icemakers, are very simple to use. Since they’re lightweight and easy to transport, they don’t generally require a drain hook-up. They typically come with simple, sometimes soft-button electronic controls that can include neat features like a timer and a clock.

Attractive, Space Saving Designs

It’s not just that these nifty portable ice makers have a small footprint and can be placed almost anywhere; these countertop appliances feature attractive designs and are made from quality components. Frequently these machines are constructed with commercial-grade stainless steel. On top of that, they’ll often be given an attractive color coating like red, titanium, white, or black. In this way, it’s easy to find a color and design to go along with almost any kitchen aesthetic.
