Looking for specific info?

Can you confirm that the item is 16.93 inches tall? My cabinets sit at exactly 17 inches.

The item is 16&7/8′ tall at the center of the back (tallest point). If your upper cabinets are 17′ from the top of the counter top, and have a gap of 2-3′ between the ice machine and the backsplash, you are good to go!
Meaning, if you push the unit all the way against the backsplash (without a 2-3’gap) you will be limiting how far you can open the door to receive ice to about 5&1/2′.
We really enjoy this ice maker.

Are you supposed to fill with a certain kind of water?

Thank you for contacting newair. Any water is recommended for the unit nim030ss00 except distilled water. Best regards, customer care

Is the direct water line included or is that a separate purchase?

Thank you for contacting newair. A water line is included with the icemaker. Best regards, customer care

At what point does it make more ice after some has melted? Can it be programmed to have ice ready at specific times when attached directly to tap?

When it melts it’ll remake it

Does this have a lithium battery?

It must be plugged in to electricity there are no batteries in the unit that i’m aware of. Hope this helps!

Can this unit be left on all the time?

We leave ours on all the time, but often some/most of the ice will melt if left on overnight. Not an issue really. Just open and close the lid to restart the ice making process.

It says the ice will melt and be remade, so if the ice isn’t used, the machine will not leak the water out, correct?

Thank you for contacting newair. That is correct, the machine will not leak the water out when the ice melts. Best regards, customer care

How much water does it hold?

Thank you for contacting newair. The capacity of the water tank is 2.6 l. Best regards, customer care

Is the ice clear or white? What size nuggets?

They’re more white then clear, and the size is maybe a centimeter all around

Is this an ice maker that keeps the ice frozen? One you dont have to bag up ahd empty?

It does not keep the ice frozen, it is an ice maker and not a freezer. Bagged ice to have extra on hand is easy but the unit will make nuggets continuously with a water supply and regular use. We will open/close the lid to cycle the unit half hour before our son gets home an it is full of nuggets when he arrives.

Can you pick ice size ? It says but don’t see anywhere in book

You cannot. It is one size. Very small and crunchable though. We’re super impressed with ours.

Can the water line be connected to a large tank with water for refilling? +

We just fill it with jug water works great

Does this unit require a drain hose or does it reuse the melted ice?

Hi raul, it does use the melted ice. But i am really beginning to wonder about the longevity of this ice maker. We are on our second replacement because the unit makes a terrible grinding noise and the sides got very hot. So we had that unit replaced the ice maker we have is only a couple months old and is beginning to make this same grinding noise. Luckily we have the additional warenty. If you decide to get this one, make sure you get the additional warrenty. We will be returning this unit, and going to get a different brand. Good luck, and happy holidays.

What is the recommended detergent to clean the nim030ss00 ice maker? It doesn’t specify

I only use bottled water in my ice maker to avoid any sort of mineral build-up. I use white vinegar to clean the unit.

Will the ice maker sense when the basket is full and pause making ice?

Yes.. There are two sensors below the chute that sense when the bin is full, once the ice blocks the beam.

How long can the basket hold the ice or will it melt?

If the ice maker is cycled and full in the evening, the ice will remain and slowly melt till opened & closed to start a cycle again. Ours will still be at least 1/2 full in the morning. 8 minutes and more ice is on the way. We love it.

How many pounds of ice does the bin hold?

Thank you for contacting newair. The ice basket can hold 3 lbs of ice. Best regards, customer care

Is this unit made to hook up to plumbed water supply

Thank you for contacting newair. The unit nim030ss00 can be hooked up to a direct water line or can be filled manually with water. Best regards, customer care

Is this a newer model nugget icemaker and have they worked out all the known malfunctions from the 40 pound nugget icemaker?

Thank you for contacting newair. I would be more than happy to assist you. Yes, these are the new nugget ice maker we have released, the older model we are not releasing any at this given moment.
Best regards,
customer care

Wonderful and easy to use!

My daughter asked for an ice maker for christmas. She stated she specifically wanted “nugget” ice. I purchased this based off reviews and i am thrilled i did. It is extremely easy to use right out of the box. The ice is perfect and the design is sleek and attractive in appearance. This is quality. I am so glad i didn’t go with a cheaper option. I have enjoyed hers so much that i plan to purchase one for myself!!

If you are an ice cruncher connoisseur – get this ice maker

I bought this for my ice cruncher son. He needs his ice chips and i need enough refrigerator made ice cubes to make my ice tea. This product makes perfectly crunchy but not too hard ice cube nuggets. It’s quiet, easy to use, and you will have ice nuggets in minutes. The price was right and my son said the ice nuggets are a w. That’s a win and everyone is happy. Definite recommend.

Get it

I never really write review but this thing is awesome. The ice size is perfect and it doesn’t stick together.. Ice is so dam good and very additive plus it so soft to chew on… Use purified water and u won’t be disappointed.. I wouldn’t recommend eating ice in the winter for health reasons but with nice weather i’d chew on this all day… Worth every penny. It alil bulky but the quality of ice this thing spits out is amazing.. This machine got me feeling like i’m on crack i can’t get enough

We love this ice maker!

This ice maker is so quiet. I like that it makes crushed ice, not just cubes. The amount of ice it makes is nice. We’ve had 3 different ice makers and this one is so much better quality than any of the others. We would definitely order this again. We are very pleased.

True nugget ice!

My wife loves soft, chewable ice, and this fits the bill!

Hooks up to a water line, and is rather quiet (at least compared to our old one). We are never going back to regular ice!

Ice machine

Bought this for my wife. She loves it. Constantly getting a glass of ice to chew on.. It is nugget size.

Very good pellet ice maker

I really like the idea that as the ice melts in the ice basket, the unused ice, the water drips straight down into the water reservoir and it’ll eventually remake those melted pellets back into frozen pellets.

Awesome!!!!!!!

I love my ice maker. Very easy instructions to set the machine up and use.

Sonic ice

Love my ice maker. I’m 24hrs in and does exactly what it says. There’s a audible humming but with time, i hope it just becomes another sound i won’t notice.
Update: noise is only during ice making process. Once done, sits quietly on counter!

Great ice maker

After reading multiple reviews on the different nugget ice makers, i decided to go with the newair. I love it. Here is my honest review:
– on reviews for nugget ice makers, most say they are loud..but the reviews on this say it is quiet. I would say it is somewhere in between. It does have a humming sounds and would equate it to a dishwasher sound. After a few minutes you don’t even pay attention to it.
– ice quality is great. I was skeptical that the ice would be the same consistency/taste of sonic or chic-fil-a ice and was greatly surprised. It really does taste like sonic/chic-fil-a ice and very similar consistency.
– size of the machine is a little bigger than i was expecting but does fit on the counter.
– speed is a little bit slower than the 10 minutes advertised. It took about 30 mins to get a large cup full of ice and estimate about 2-3 hours for a full basket. I am running mine at night and when i get up in the morning the basket is full…empty it and run again. The ice does stay frozen until you empty the basket, where i saw on other models the ice would melt.

Overall i give this a four out of five rating…mostly because of how it matches the description in the advertisement. It is a great ice machine and have no regrets buying it. If the advertisement described it as taking 30 minutes for ice (vs. 10) and didn’t describe as portable then i would have given a five star rating.

Easy to use and setup, compact enough for counter and quick!

Loved the setup was so simple, it is a little on the louder side when can running but quiet when making ice. Texture is great!
