Borcolo BO-FZB-12X9C Countertop Ice Maker, 2 Bullet Sizes, 9 Cubes in 6 Minutes

Two bullet-ice sizes let you choose cubes for different drinks, while the countertop format keeps ice-making within reach in a kitchen or small office. The Borcolo BO-FZB-12X9C makes 9 cubes in 6 minutes and is rated for up to 33 pounds of ice per day. Its 1.94-liter water tank and self-cleaning mode add convenience between uses. One practical limit: ice comes in cycles, so the stated 9 cubes per 6 minutes may not suit a need for a large batch all at once.

The output figures are useful for gauging whether this machine fits your routine: it can keep drinks supplied over time, but its listed production arrives in successive cycles rather than as one large immediate batch. The two size settings offer a choice of bullet ice for cocktails, iced coffee, and other cold drinks. The description also notes a hollow-core shape, intended to help cool beverages efficiently.

Practical tips

A countertop ice maker is a different approach from filling and waiting on ice trays: it produces bullet-shaped cubes without making you plan as far ahead. For a casual evening at home, you could start a cycle before serving drinks and let production continue as needed. The 1.94-liter tank reduces how often you need to add water compared with a smaller refill routine, while the low-water indicator can alert you when attention is needed. The ice-full indicator is another useful prompt during operation.

The compact dimensions may help when counter space is limited, but measure the intended spot before choosing a location, the listed footprint is 14.41 inches deep by 8.94 inches wide. The product details give a 110-volt rating, so confirm that this matches the power available where you plan to use it. Self-cleaning starts by holding the power button for 5 seconds, according to the supplied instructions. That feature can simplify routine care, though the listing does not specify a cleaning schedule or additional cleaning steps.

You’ll appreciate it if you want a countertop source of two sizes of bullet ice for everyday drinks and prefer producing cubes as needed over preparing trays in advance. You may want to skip it if your main priority is getting a large quantity in a single batch, the documented rate is 9 cubes per 6 minutes, even though the stated daily production reaches up to 33 pounds.

What you get

The listed components are the ice maker, an ice basket, and an ice scoop. That covers the basic items for making and transferring ice, without requiring a separate scoop purchase based on the included-items list. The listing does not provide the basket’s holding capacity, so the daily production figure should not be read as the amount the basket can store at once.

Is it worth it?

This model is worth considering when you want a compact machine for steady home or office drink service, value two bullet-ice sizes, and can work with output that arrives over repeated cycles. Its self-cleaning function, status indicators, and included basket and scoop make the day-to-day setup straightforward. For occasional drinks or a small workspace, those details may matter more than a machine designed around a different ice format. If you regularly need a large amount immediately, the cycle rate is the key point to weigh before buying.
