Electactic HZB-12M Crescent Ice Maker, Adjustable Thickness, 27 lb/Day

Some kitchens need ice for everyday drinks, while others need a ready supply for guests or an office break room. The Electactic HZB-12M makes crescent-shaped ice right on the countertop. Its adjustable thickness lets you tailor cubes to different beverages. A 24-hour timer and one-touch cleaning add useful convenience to regular use.

Everyday use

Use this portable ice maker for iced coffee, tea, cocktails, whiskey, and other chilled drinks at home, in the office, or during an RV trip. It produces 16 crescent cubes in 15 minutes and can make up to 27 pounds in 24 hours, so fresh ice is available for daily routines as well as gatherings. The 1.8 L water tank and 1.6 L basket support countertop use, with the basket holding up to 2 pounds at a time. An included scoop makes it easy to serve ice into glasses or a drink pitcher.

Compared with relying on bags of ice, an on-counter machine gives you a way to make fresh batches where drinks are prepared. Its compact footprint also suits kitchens and home bars where a full-size ice maker may not fit as naturally. For a party, you can schedule ice ahead with the timer, for a regular drink routine, adjust cube thickness to suit the beverage.

What stands out

Adjustable ice thickness gives you a choice of thinner cubes for smoothies or iced tea and thicker cubes for cocktails and spirits. That flexibility makes one machine useful across different drink preferences, rather than tying it to a single serving style. The crescent ice is described as clear with minimal air bubbles and slower-melting than standard bullet ice, making it suited to drinks where a slower-melting cube is preferred.

The LED display shows ice-making status, while alerts indicate when the water is low or the basket is full. A built-in 24-hour timer lets you set a time for ice making, and the one-touch auto-cleaning function makes routine maintenance simpler. Together, these controls make it practical to fit ice production into a home or office schedule without constant monitoring.

Practical questions

Can I choose the ice thickness? Yes. The machine offers multiple thickness settings. Shorter cycles make thinner cubes, while longer cycles produce thicker ones, so you can select a style suited to the drink.

How much ice does it make? It produces 16 cubes in 15 minutes and has a stated daily output of up to 27 pounds. The basket holds up to 2 pounds at a time.

Can I set it to make ice later? Yes. Use the built-in 24-hour programmable timer to schedule ice making. The LED display and alerts also show operating status, low water, and a full basket.

When it makes sense

It makes sense if you want a countertop source of crescent ice for everyday beverages, home entertaining, or an office, and value being able to adjust cube thickness. The combination of a 27-pound daily output, scheduled operation, and one-touch cleaning suits regular use in kitchens and other spaces where portable countertop ice making is a practical fit.
