ICEPURE Under-Counter Ice Maker Review: A High-Capacity Workhorse for Serious Entertainers


 The ICEPURE Under-Counter Ice Maker is built for anyone who needs a steady, commercial-grade supply of ice without the footprint or noise of a full industrial machine. With an impressive 85 lbs of daily ice production, a built-in drain pump, and flexible installation options, this 15-inch stainless steel unit fits seamlessly into kitchens, bars, restaurants, or entertainment spaces.

Below is a full breakdown of its performance, design, features, and ideal use cases.


Design & Build Quality

This unit is built to last. The ice maker features a three-layer construction:

-A food-grade, BPA-free interior for safe, clean ice
-A thick insulated middle layer to maintain temperature
-A durable stainless steel exterior for long-term durability

The reversible door and full-length handle allow the machine to integrate easily into any layout—left- or right-hinge, built-in or freestanding.

Despite its commercial output, the footprint remains compact at just 15 inches wide, making it suitable for home kitchens or commercial setups with limited space.


Ice Production Performance



This machine is engineered for high output. It produces:

-Up to 80–85 lbs of ice per 24 hours
-45 square ice cubes every 12–18 minutes
-26 lbs of built-in ice storage

The square cubes come out dense, clear, and slow-melting—ideal for cocktails, restaurants, iced coffee, home bars, and small business needs.

Whether installed in a kitchen island, bar station, or commercial prep area, the output is more than enough to handle daily demand.


24-Hour Timer & Auto-Control Features



Convenience is where the ICEPURE unit shines. It includes:

-A 24-hour programmable timer to schedule ice-making start/stop times
-Automatic shutoff when the bin reaches full capacity
-A reminder alert when the ice basket is full

These features let you “set it and forget it,” ensuring fresh ice is always ready without unnecessary cycling.


Automatic Self-Cleaning & Adjustable Ice Thickness



Cleaning an ice maker can be tedious—this unit solves that.

Auto-Cleaning Mode

Hold the TIMER/CLEAN button for 5 seconds to start a full automated cleaning cycle. This reduces maintenance and ensures better-tasting ice.

Adjustable Ice Thickness

Using the (+) / (-) controls, you can adjust ice-making time between 12–18 minutes:

-Shorter time → thinner cubes
-Longer time → thicker cubes

This lets you customize ice density depending on usage—cocktails, smoothies, soft drinks, or food service.


Easy Installation

Installation is surprisingly quick—about one minute after unboxing:

-Connect the water inlet hose
-Connect the drain hose
-Plug in the unit

The built-in drainage pump ensures efficient, reliable water removal whether installed under a counter or freestanding. This is a standout feature, as many competing units require gravity drainage only.


Flexible Installation Options

Thanks to its reversible door, compact 15-inch width, and clean stainless design, this ice maker can be installed:

-Under-counter
-Built-in
-Freestanding

That flexibility makes it equally suitable for:

-Home kitchens
-Wet bars
-Restaurants
-Cafes
-Office break rooms
-Outdoor kitchen setups


Who This Ice Maker Is Best For

This model is ideal if you:

-Need high-volume ice production for entertaining or business use
-Want a compact yet commercial-capacity unit
-Prefer minimal maintenance (auto-cleaning + drain pump)
-Want adjustable ice thickness and consistent cube quality
-Need a machine that can fit into multiple installation types


Final Thoughts

The ICEPURE Under-Counter Ice Maker is a powerful, well-built appliance offering commercial output with home-friendly convenience. With 85 lbs of daily production, a 24-hour timer, adjustable ice thickness, and one of the easiest installation processes in its class, it’s an excellent choice for anyone who wants a reliable, long-lasting source of crystal-clear ice.
