Portable Ice Makers - Perfect for Summertime, Outdoor Parties, and Home Bars!
Portable cube icemaker machines can produce as much as 35 pounds of
ice per day and many units can even make ice cubes in several different sizes. A
portable ice maker will last for years to come and provide you with one more
appliance to make your home the most innovative and contemporary place it can
be.
Whether you have a home bar or just want ice with a touch of a
button, an ice maker is an absolute must-have!
Before you decide on a specific ice maker, ask
yourself these questions:
On average, how much ice do I need?
How much ice do I need to store?
What types of ice cubes do I want?
On average, how much ice do I need?
One of the key factors to choosing an ice maker is
determining how much ice you'll need. This will help you
determine the size of the unit. After all, there's nothing
worse than running out of ice in the middle of a party. Larger
countertop ice makers can produce up to 35 pounds of ice per day
while smaller ice makers can make up to 28 pounds of ice per day.
Anything more than this will require a commercial or undercounter
unit.
How much ice do I need to store?
Keep in mind that while ice makers make ice quickly,
most units can't store ice for extended periods of time. Once
ice is made, it should be used pretty quickly.
What type of ice cubes do I want?
By design, portable ice makers will usually produce
bullet-shaped ice cubes. Also, depending on the model you
choose, you may also be able to select from different sizes of ice
cubes.
