What Customers Are Saying

This ice maker is praised for producing high-quality, "nugget" or "pellet" ice that is ideal for drinks and smoothies. Many customers describe the ice as "great", "awesome", and "the best ever". The machine is also noted for being quiet and efficient, generating large quantities of ice with minimal effort. However, a small number of customers have experienced issues such as loud noises, leaks, and problems with the drain or water system. The installation process was also found challenging by some. Overall, this appears to be a high-quality appliance that delivers on its promise of excellent ice production, though a few users have encountered problems.

Makes fantastic chewable ice pellets.

Would Recommend

The ice it makes in comparable to Sonic restaurant ice. Easy to chew. Makes drinks so much better! The handle design is poor. It would be better with no handle & have either finger indents or push foot opener would be much more useful. Handle is WAY to big for size of maker….this is the only reason I gave 4 stars instead of 5

Quiet and productive

The quality and quantity of ice is really amazing. One of my favorite parts is this icemaker is dramatically quieter than the one it replaced.

Nugget ice machine UNC15NPRBII

Would Recommend

Love this unit! It’s a big hit with parties and when we entertain. Only needed basic plumbing skills to install and was making ice within an hour. Double check your connections and you can look like a hero with the wife!

Nothing is weak or wrong

Would Recommend

Excellent product that makes fantastic ice . Everything is right where you need it such as the water filter. The automobile industry could take a lesson from GE in make the product super easy to use and to maintain.

DOA

Would Not Recommend

Ordered the Nugget Ice Maker UNC15NPRBII. Installed and the drain pump (ordered separately) ran non stop. Also, could not connect with the app. Did not make ice. Called for technician. Technician could not repair. Currently working with support for a replacement. Right now, if zero stars were an option that is what my rating would be.

Makes great ice!

Would Recommend

This is a great product that produces a lot of great ice. The mobile app is a nice feature as well. The only reason for 4 stars is the lack of information about purchasing and installing the drain pump. It should be included with the purchase rather then buying it separately.

Makes great ice

Would Recommend

This ice machine makes great ice. The wifi function works well. It does stop frequently saying that the ice bin is full, when it is not. You have to turn it off and on again to get it to start making ice again. It is also fairly noisy when it is making ice and heats up the floor in front of, and the cabinets surrounding the ice maker .
