Kismile Crescent Ice Maker, 27 lb Daily Capacity

For a kitchen counter, office breakroom, or RV where you want ice within reach, the Kismile Crescent Ice Maker is designed to make batches without relying on store-bought bags. It produces crescent-shaped cubes and has a removable water tank, so filling it is a more contained task than repeatedly pouring water into a small built-in reservoir. The first batch is listed as 16 cubes in 15 minutes, though the maker notes that cycle time varies with ambient temperature. Its footprint is compact for a countertop appliance, but you’ll still want to measure the spot before setting it up.

Size & fit

At 9.45 inches long, 14.09 inches wide, and 15.75 inches high, this is a countertop machine rather than a small appliance to tuck into a drawer. A kitchen counter or office surface can work well if there’s room for the unit and you can reach it to refill the tank and collect ice. The transparent window lets you see the ice level without opening the lid, and the included scoop makes it easier to serve a few cubes straight into drinks.

A practical use case: set it up before guests arrive, schedule production with the timer, then check the window as people help themselves. The removable 60-ounce water tank reduces the need for frequent refills compared with a smaller reservoir, but it still needs water added when empty. If counter space is already tight, its listed dimensions are worth factoring in before choosing it over bags of ice stored in a freezer.

Pros

The main appeal is having ice made where you need it, with a stated daily capacity of up to 27 pounds. Crescent-shaped cubes are described as solid and slow-melting, a useful format for iced coffee, soda, or cocktails when you’d rather not have a drink diluted quickly. The machine also offers one-touch self-cleaning, a 24-hour timer, and automatic shutoff, which can make routine use less hands-on.

Worth considering if you want an at-home supply for everyday drinks or occasional gatherings and prefer a countertop machine to storing bags of ice. Compared with a basic ice tray, it handles production automatically and can make a larger supply over time. The tradeoff is that it takes up counter space and still depends on refilling its water tank, it isn’t a set-and-forget source of unlimited ice.

Should you buy it?

This Kismile model makes sense if you want a dedicated countertop supply for a home, office, or RV and have a suitable place to keep it. The timer, removable tank, and self-cleaning cycle give it more convenience features than a manual tray, while the crescent format is aimed at people who prefer solid cubes for cold drinks. It may not suit you if you need a truly space-free option, want ice without refilling or maintaining a machine, or require a precise batch time in changing room conditions. Choose it for accessible, ongoing ice production, choose a freezer-based approach if occasional ice and minimal counter equipment matter more.
