Works great.
August 14, 2017
This thing is a work horse. we got it because my $1,200 refrigerator/freezer makes like 10 ice cubes every few hours and we love ice(even had the repair people come out an the guy said, yeah, because it's hot out, the water in the line is hot so it takes a long time for the it to cool enough to freeze.... so in the summer(or in LA most of the year) the freezer has very low ice output... Whaaat???/ So i started searching for ice makers and found this - right price, right size. we just fill it up every couple of days. . the ice cubes aren't as solid as the ones from my freezer but it cranks them out! and it's been running non stop for a year.
This machine is great.. the small cubes are great for chewing
February 18, 2017
My husband is on fluid restriction and likes to chew on ice. The ice maker in the refrigerator makes cubes too large and dense for this. This machine is great..the small cubes are great for chewing. Also it is so convenient to leave on the counter as we use several times a day. I bought 2 small plastic containers to put the finished ice into. They each hold one basket of ice cubes. I put a kitchen towel on the counter and when I take the basket of ice out I tap it on the towel to release any excess water then fill the plastic container. When I take the container out of the freezer I just tap the container on the counter to loosen the cubes and they are ready to use. I hope this has been helpful.

We had another brand and it died. We LOVE this machine for several reasons. 1. Itmakes a ton of ice..our apartment fridge does not have a ice maker. 2. It hold about a gallon of water. 3. it is quiet. We hope the quality continues as the machine gets older. Big thums up.
Very pleased.
October 2, 2016
Bought this for my husband since we do not have an ice maker connected to our freezer. I am impressed. It makes ice quick. I don't have to worry about constantly refilling water into the unit. It holds 2.8 liters in the water reservoir. You don't have to worry about transferring the ice from the ice maker to the freezer. We have never transferred the ice and it stays frozen. Very pleased.
Great looking and works fast.
November 11, 2015
I give it five stars. 1 very well packaged. 2 arrived on time. 3 instructions are understandable and actually helpful. 4 looks great. 5 works really well. Makes ice quickly and yes, it makes three sizes. When you get one, if read the instructions You'll have a flawless enjoyable ice maker. Oh yeah I had my first ice batch in 7 minutes.

Just the right size for use with our new ice maker. The draw string makes it easy to close and for storage in the freezer until adding more ice from the machine.
Just what we needed!
December 7, 2015
Just what we needed. Could be a little thicker but they did the job and I am pleased with the product and the price. I am going to purchase some for a concession stand that has an ice maker so they can store full bags for easy transportation as needed.
Save $$
November 1, 2015
If you use a lot of ice on the go these are super handy and have saved us $$ this summer. Our marina was charging $4 a bag this summer! We use a lot of ice. S I would fill these up at home during the week and use them with icemaker we have at the lake too
get these bags

Get these bags if you have an ice machine, the bags are high quality and the draw string is a great addition.

Really nice scoop. Not using it for ice

Really nice scoop. Not using it for ice, it works perfectly in my popcorn machine! I was surprised by the quality. Good purchase!
Perfect!
April 6, 2017
I bought this to use with an ice maker . . . but I have a confession. I have used it with: sugar, flour, rolled oats, chocolate bits, and it is sooo convenient I want more of them. It is my new go to tool!
Perfect All Around, Wish I Bought Two!
February 22, 2017
We got this for our bottom freezer ice maker. We have for kids, and I quite honestly didn't want their hands in the ice tray! This was the perfect solution. It's the perfect size to pour into a large glass and fits in the small rack next to our ice tray. The kids enjoy using it, so it puts my mind at rest that there are no grubby hands in my ice! It's also dishwasher safe for the times when the kids drop it! I'm going to buy a second one today!
Work great.
May 18, 2016
I almost didn't buy these after reading some of the other reviews, but I am very glad I did. They are very well made, and feel solid in my hand. They work great and do the job they are meant for...scooping things up...like ice in my freezer. I am not sure what other people were expecting...some said they aren't attractive enough for serving. I guess I don't understand what an "attractive " ice scoop looks like, but I don't buy tools to look at them or to impress other people...I buy them to use. These are strong and get the job done. If you want a dainty delicate acoop to impress your friends...maybe these aren't what you are looking for...but if you want a funtional well made scoop to actually scoop things, these are great. I would definitely buy these again...to use...not look at...
Good Ice Scoop at a low price
September 11, 2015
This is a nice ice scoop that can be found here at a very reasonable price. I had this in my cart for a long time trying to decide whether or not to buy it, and when I finally did, I was glad that I did, as it is useful in completing ice scooping duties for parties and tailgates. I would recommend this.
Just right!
January 2, 2012
I got this scoop to discourage people putting their hands into the ice bin in my freezer. I placed the order based on price and later read some reviews that said it was way too small, so I was regretting my decision. However, when the scoop arrived it was a great size. Four ounces (half a cup) is not big if you are thinking of a measuring cup, but as a flattened scoop the size is just right. I keep it in my icemaker's reservoir, it doesn't get in the way, and it grabs 3-4 cubes per scoop (the long, semi-circular type cubes). I might need two scoops for a 12-oz size glass, more if I'm drinking from a really big tall glass.As to the handle, I don't find it uncomfortable to grab. Obviously a rounded handle or one that is not metal would be slightly more comfortable. However, neither the shape of the handle nor the cold from it really make a difference in my ice-obtaining experience: they are not something that would make me return or rate down this product.

Much better than my last one!
June 27, 2017
This is my second Ice Maker. The first one I bought had the electronic "eye" that would trigger the machine to stop making ice until is was emptied. That "eye" became defective and kept telling the machine that it was full of ice when, in fact, it wasn't. I assume the machine was still fine and could still make ice if only the "eye" would stop telling it that it was full! No way to fix it! The machine was useless!
This machine uses some sort of metal bar (about 1 inch long) to detect when the ice bucket was full. I assume that when ice lays up against the bar the bar knows it and shuts the machine down until the the bucket it emptied.
This machine makes 9 ice cubes every 9 minutes (give or take). That doesn't sound like very much until you realize that's one ice cube per minute or 120 ice cubes in two hours. Not bad!
I usually make a weeks worth of ice on my day off, dumping the ice into my refrigerator's freezer ice compartment each time its full. The water reservoir is bigger in this ice maker than my old one, too. That makes me happy.
It seems from the reviews that others have had problems with their Ivation Machine but so far (I've been using it about 6 months now) I haven't and like this machine very much. Why 4 stars and not 5? Simply because I've only had it for 6 months. I'll reserve a Star for a couple of years.
Sure beats ice cube trays!
February 9, 2017
I bought the icemaker because my refrigerator in my rental apartment doesn't have one and I use a lot of ice. It works great. My only complaint is that I can't get the plug out to drain the reservoir after use so I have to tip the machine over to empty it is the sink.
I had a Magic Chef icemaker which I loved. It died after 2 years of continuous use
September 24, 2016
I had a Magic Chef icemaker which I loved. It died after 2 years of continuous use. I like this new one but wonder why it beeps. The red lights indicating it's full and needs water are bright. The additional noise is un-needed in my opinion.
Good hardworking Machine
June 7, 2016
I like it. Only 4 stars because nothing beats an ice maker installed in your freezer. VERY easy to use. Hard working machine. Takes up counter space ... make sure you have room. I like the ice it makes; shape, size good for drinks. My concern was the ice melting together and not staying in single pieces like it does in a freezer. This happens a little but easily remedied with the ice scoop provided. Turned out to be non issue. The way I use it .... turn it on while I'm home once a day for a couple hours and dump it into the freezer when I hear new cubes are made until the tray is full. I like it, it solved our problem and would recommend it.
Wheezes and groans, but works
January 15, 2016
Works well, but sounds like it is having an asthma attack, and very noisy when it's running. Ice is very wet, which is a problem when using the ice to supplement the frig ice maker. The ice clumps together because it's wet when placed into frig ice maker container.

They work great. It would be nice if you could tie the bag closed. If you lay a full bag on it's side some ice will spill out. That's OK minor problem. Keep using the same bags over and over. Testimont as to how strong they are.

Great while it lasted
January 26, 2017
This ice maker did a great job while it made ice. We used it once daily in our office for exactly one year before it stopped making ice. It was not repairable as it appeared to crack on an internal part.
Noisiest quiet ice maker I've ever purchased
December 5, 2015
It beeps when you turn it on. It beeps when you turn it off. And it beeps like you hit the jackpot when it's full of ice. What'd I buy, a slot machine? No, it's a simple ice maker. What were they thinking with all this needless beeping? You have this very quiet ice maker and then the silence is shattered by a cacophony of beeping.

And there is no 800 number to be found in the manual. None on the ice maker itself. If you need help, there is no website. I've had other ice makers that are proud to provide support for their products (Avalon Bay).The 800 numbers on the manual actually connect to a real person.

But, the ice maker does make ice as advertised. If you don't mind beeping and no apparent warranty support, this item is for you.

Not great. I wouldn't buy another one.
August 12, 2017
Good size and it will work, but it's not what I was expecting. The handle is uncomfortable to hold because it's just a shaped piece of sheet metal with sharp-ish edges - that's the best I can describe it. I doubt we'll use it but I'm not returning this one, since it wasn't that expensive, but I wouldn't buy another one.
Good for scoop, but not breaking up ice because of the sharp edges
July 24, 2017
They're just stamped sheet metal. The handle has sharp edges. If they dipped the handles in plastic or beveled the sharp edges, it would improve this product.
LIGHT WEIGHT

This is a very lightweight scooper. The one I ordered failed the first day by the handled bending. I'm being told by Amzn item not eligible for return?????????? Is AMZN beginning to weaken their quality on the return policy.
More like a flour scooper, not an ice scooper.

It's a scoop. It scoops just fine. But it's much lower quality—the material is thinner—than its pictures make it out to be. The handle is just pressed sheet metal, which is less comfortable to use than similarly-priced scoops you'd find at the grocery store.

March 20, 2017
I wish I would have read the reviews before purchasing. It's ok, but not the best quality. I didn't look at the picture that closely (I was buy multiple items) and didn't realize the handle is not round. It's light weight and if you use it to break up your ice, you have the potential to actually cut yourself on the handle. I would recommend looking for a different one.

Not cool enough (pun intended =^)
May 15, 2017
It broke after a few months. Don't have time right now for details, sorry. This is my second review because I accidentally erased my nearly finished one due to my rushing to get out of here. Argh! Isn't that the worst? Anyhow, this machine's indicator panel was not configurated properly so it's functions were not clear. That wasn't cool. And I think I'm in the market for a machine that will store cubes as well as make them. The broken one used to melt all the finished cubes away during the preparation for the next batch. So there times when I couldn't get a decent amount of ice for one beverage. And that wan't cool (literally) either
I am not nor will I ever be affiliated with or be compensated by or influenced anyhow by this company or any of its competitors ( I am getting real sick of having to determine which are the corrupt comments)

This is not a "nice" piece for use on a bar. It is a very utilitarian, cheaply made item. Mine arrived with several scratches, and if this is stainless steel all the way through, fine, but I have my doubts, considering how the scratches looked.If you just want something to move ice with, this is will do, but how long it will last is up to question.
4oz stainless scoop add on for Luma ice maker
June 17, 2015
Im only giving two stars because i purchased the 4oz stainless steel ice scoop with the Luma comfort IM200SS portable ice maker and the stainless steel ice scoop dont fit inside of the maker. I only gave 2$ for it as an add on so sending it back would be pointless. Just buyers be aware that it will not fit inside the machine. Other than that its a sturdy scoop. its not very thick in size but will get the job done for small scoops of ice. I just wish it had fit my machine. I would have rathered the stainless scoop as apose to the plastic that comes with the ice machine.

Not made well
October 12, 2017
Don't buy this with the Ice Maker- It's to big to work well and get into the portable ice makers.The ice makers come with a nice small, plastic scoop that works just fine! It has sharp edges and is made poorly. The overall construction is not well made and really no good for something like a cocktail party.
Sharp and dangerous
October 10, 2017
These are made out of thin metal with seams, baffles and very sharp edges. The handle is an upside down V shape with sharp edges. I cut myself on the handle edge opening the plastic wrap. These cannot safely be used in my kitchen, especially by my children.
Cheap crap
September 28, 2017
Very poor quality. Made of thin, cheap-feeling stamped metal. Not worth $4.50, that's for sure. Maybe if I had been able to try it first I would have been willing to pay a dollar for it. Not $4.50! Pass on this!
Garbage! Don't waste your time
August 15, 2017
This thing is garbage. It's cheaply made, the handle is sharp and the scoop is shallow. It cannot scoop ice let alone anything else. I wouldn't even use this for scooping up the dog crap in the backyard. It's that bad. Worse, you cannot return it on Amazon so I literally threw $$ into a black hole.

This one sucked. It's think not really a scoop per-se is too flatHandle is think and SHARP. I would not want to use this with children or someone with a strong grip it. Mine was sharp and would easily cut the hand
Sharp sheet metal handle is potentially dangerous for use with ice!
February 9, 2015
I made the mistake of reading several of the more recent reviews first - most of which highly rate this scoop - when I decided to order it. The older reviews are in my opinion more accurate. Upon its arrival, I was both surprised and disappointed to discover firsthand how thin the steel is, and in particular, the uncomfortable, flimsy and potentially dangerous manner in which the handle is constructed. It's rather sharp bent sheet metal, and gripping it is both awkward and and uncomfortable to the point that it is almost painful when cold. A fully rounded or solid handle would be far safer and more effective. While I'll keep the scoop for light duty dry goods, this item will not be returning to my ice bin. If you need a stainless scoop for ice, look elsewhere.
