Frigidaire Portable Countertop EFIC108-WHITE Maker, Freestanding, 26LB ice per Day, WHITE

I had enough of my ge nugget ice maker. It was louder than heck and moldy as can be. After taking it apart and discovering the mold was throughout the entire thing, i dumped it in the trash and bought this one for 1/6 of the price. I know it isn’t nugget ice. I miss my nugget ice. But! It works, it’s not getting louder by the day, and not drop of mold visible in my ice!

I love ice in my drinks but have been using traditional ice trays for years—ice trays which no one except me ever seems to refill. I took a chance on this hoping that i could have an easy way of keeping my ice stock high. I should’ve purchased this years ago. Easy to use, very effective. I couldn’t be happier.

I use so much ice so this was a must have. The noise level was not too bad. It makes a few ice cubes at a time so you have to plug it in and fill it 24 hours in advance if you’re serving a lot of people. I keep mine full and when it gets down to about 1/4 i’ve left, we refill it with bottled water so we always have ice on hand

Had this ice maker a few months now. I use ice round the clock myself plus what my husband uses (far less). We turn it on for maybe 6 hours a day. It makes ice pretty fast. It generates heat so i placed it where that doesn’t matter. Someone needs to tend to machine about every half hour or so while running. It will shut itself off when full or out of water. We fill it with water about 4 or 5 times in the length of time we use it daily.

Its easy to use. Read the manual and in 5 min. You are pushing the on button. In 8 more min you are hear ice cubes dumping into the bucket. You have a choice of small or large cubes. Works great.

This makes ice so quick and it’s so quiet, i often forget i have it on. It’s a great addition to your fridge ice machine or alone. My fridge machine stopped working so i bought this and i love it. The ice cubes are just the right size!! Great buy!!

It is good. Easy to use. But the only issue i have it with is that it vibrates and makes my whole dining table shake and it is disturbing to me. Since it is my issue it would be weird to give it 4 stars. The ice makes it faster and clear. Doesn’t change the taste that much either. Just very slightly almost unnoticeable. So i would recommend it

Within minutes of setting it up it was making ice

It’s perfect! Kinda loud while making ice but my mom had an igloo one in her camper and it’s the same. Super fast! A few minutes and i have ice. My only regret was not getting it sooner. Great red color, everything is exactly as described. Would buy again.

I love this ice maker. It’s quick and quiet. It makes noise of course but nothing irritating. We use ours everyday.

Works very well. I like my ice maker a lot. Would buy this item again.

I really liked the ice maker. It worked as expected. I just wish the cord design was more flexible. My outlets are limited in my kitchen so trying to plug the ice maker into an outlet shared with another small appliance was challenging because of the design of the 3 prong cord.

I received a totally different color than what i ordered. Was light turquoise instead of grey. They replaced it quickly. It worked perfect for 10 months then died. They replaced at no charge since was still under warranty. Replacement still working great

Love this, the only complaint i have is it is a little loud especially when dropping ice. I’ve been woke up once or twice.

(27 apr 19) well, it’s apparent that i received a defective unit. I think i can count 2 and 3/4 ice pellets after almost 5 hours of operation. I’m anxious to see how customer service is. If you’re reading, mr/mrs customer service person, i’m gonna be extremely upset if you make me have to go through the process of boxing it up, and mail it off! I better get front door, service!

By the way, i just received 1 more ice pellet.

Lastly, the unit is much noisier than i anticipated. My intent is to use this in my rv when we camp. If i can just about hear a mouse fart in my sleep, i’m certain i’ll be able to hear every mode of this ice makers’ process.

I will update after i receive word from customer service.

Update #1. Amazon customer service is replacing the defective unit. I will update again after i receive the new new one.

Update #2 (may 11, 2019) i received my new, new ice maker and am very happy with it, along with amazon’s amazing customer service. They attempted to reach out to frigidaire, but frigidaire did not respond, so amazon sent me a new one. Being that the old one was defective, amazon did not want me to ship it back to them. I know it’d be easy to throw in the dumpster, but the little bit of tree-hugger in me, says i need to recycle it somehow. I’ll figure that part out.

P.s. The new, new ice maker is just as noisy as the old, new one, but i can live with it.

This bad boy makes ice incredibly fast!

As i stated above, directions were not in english, and it was missing the ice scoop!!
The ice maker works great, and the color matches perfectly!

It is ok for home, if it works!!! It is no longer operating!!!

My family uses a lot of ice and the ice maker in our fridge freezes over often. This ice maker is not very loud and makes a good amount of ice quickly. I have had to clean it twice out since owning it a few days after the first clean out from unpacking. The reservoir will catch anything that might fall in from scooping the ice changing the flavor even though the filter will keep it from going through. Shipping had the box tilted more than the 45deg i saw in other reviews so i waited 2 hours for chemicals to settle no issues on startup nice and quiet. Planing on using for trips takes up the same space as a small bread maker and gets used a lot more often. Would rate higher but the rate at which the unused ice melts turns the ice into clumps and having to find a way to store the ice scoop near and clean just annoying (a small clip hook anything would have been nice) inside the ice tray just ends up with a half full ice tray saying it’s full. So other then minor issues yes the ice melting is a small matter due to shape being easy to break up clumps and will just melt to reservoir and be refrozen quickly. The more ice it has and melts the cooler it gets the faster and more efficient it works.

Even with a filter on the refrigerator, our hard water makes ice with an unpleasant aftertaste. This portable cooler allows me to use bottled water to quickly produce cubes that don’t alter the taste or smell of my drink. We mostly use ice at mealtime, so i don’t keep this machine constantly running; i just turn it on about 20 minutes before i need the ice.

The machine itself isn’t that noisy, but the ice falling into the bucket creates a loud clunking sound (scared me a few times when i left it running after i went to bed). It has auto-stop once the ice bucket is full or the water gets too low, but i typically turn it off manually when i’m done for the night. The ice cubes eventually melt and the water drains back into the reservoir for next time. You don’t get a large volume of ice cubes in the bucket, so i think this maker is better suited to light household use rather than supplying a big party.
