Electactic Countertop Ice Maker, 27 lb Capacity

Key specifications

For people who want crescent-shaped ice at home, in an office break room, or on an RV trip, this Electactic countertop ice maker combines adjustable ice thickness with a compact footprint. It’s built to make ice on demand rather than rely on bags from the store.

The listed output is up to 27 lb per day, with 16 cubes made in 15 minutes. The water tank holds 1.8 L, while the basket stores up to 2 lb at a time. That distinction matters: daily production is not the same as the amount ready in the basket.

Other listed features include a 24-hour timer, LED display, alerts for low water and a full basket, and one-touch self-cleaning. The machine measures 14.1 × 9.4 × 15.7 inches. No weight is listed, so the portable design may be easier to place than to carry frequently.

Who it’s for

It suits you if you serve chilled drinks regularly and want more control than a basic ice tray offers. The adjustable thickness is useful when you want thinner ice for iced tea or a thicker piece for a cocktail or whiskey. Crescent ice also gives drinks a different shape and look than the bullet-style ice made by many countertop machines.

Picture setting out drinks for dinner and using the display to check the machine, then scooping ice straight from the basket as glasses are poured. For a small gathering, the daily output may be useful, but the 2 lb basket means you may need to serve or transfer batches rather than expect the full day’s production to be stored at once.

A freezer ice tray is a simpler choice if you only need a few cubes occasionally and don’t mind waiting. This machine makes more sense when fresh ice on demand and selectable thickness are part of your routine. It might not be a great match if you need a large reserve ready in one batch or want a machine with a stated weight for frequent carrying. The listing gives the footprint but not the clearance needed around the unit, so you’re choosing without that measurement.

What you get

The listed package includes the ice maker, an ice basket, and a scoop. The machine makes crescent-shaped ice and offers multiple thickness settings, though the number of settings is not specified. Its LED panel shows operating status, and alerts indicate when water is low or the basket is full. A one-touch cleaning function is included, the description does not explain its cleaning cycle in detail, so it should not be taken to mean that routine care is never needed.

The timer can be set up to 24 hours ahead, which may help you plan for a meal or a stretch of busy office use. The dimensions are worth comparing with your counter, shelf, or RV setup before bringing it home.

Before you decide

Does it make bullet-shaped ice? No. The listed ice is crescent-shaped, with adjustable thickness.

How much ice can the basket hold? Up to 2 lb at a time. The stated daily production is up to 27 lb, so the basket is a smaller holding area than the daily output figure might suggest.

Can you schedule ice making? Yes. The built-in timer is programmable for up to 24 hours, and the display shows the machine’s status.

Buying verdict

Choose this Electactic if you’ll use fresh crescent ice often, value adjustable thickness, and have counter space for its listed dimensions. Its timer, alerts, and self-cleaning function add convenience for regular use, while the included scoop makes serving straightforward. Skip it if your priority is holding a large supply in the machine at once: the basket tops out at 2 lb, so high-volume use may involve handling batches. The practical decision is whether on-demand production matters more to you than having a bigger store of ice ready to grab.
