GoveeLife Smart Ice Maker Countertop, Portable Ice Machine with Voice Control, 9 Ice Cubes in 6 Minutes 3 Sizes, 26lbs/24Hrs, Self Cleaning RGB Lights, Quiet Ice Maker with Scoop for Kitchen Silver

I recently discovered Govee products and I’ve been hooked ever since — and this ice machine is no exception. It’s sleek, smart, and seriously convenient.I love that I can set a timer so I always have fresh ice ready in the morning and again when I get home from work. The cubes are the perfect size (and yes — you can choose between small or large!). Best part? When the machine runs out of water or the ice bin is full, I get a notification right on my phone. No more guessing or checking — it’s all automatic.The ease of use, smart alerts, and consistent performance make this ice machine a total win. If you're into smart home gadgets that actually make life easier, this one’s a must-have.

This has been an issue for a long time to get ice wo polluted water as I have an RO filter I use everyday.Read reviews and the real world experience is more positive than a lot of these reviews. It makes a ton of ice and does it quickly. I fill it from my RO filter supply and they taste great and stay cold long enough to realize you need to empty the basket. Ice cubes are best in a plastic container in the freezer to break up later. Being so hot I need cubes all the time and I love the fact all the water is filtered from 50ppm to 1ppm. Great product. If you want an ice maker get this just understand it is not a freezer so you need to remove the ice into the freezer or just use it. Last point, it makes cube s in 6 minutes or less, like your sex life.

I took a chance on this, because I have ice requirements (purely subjective) that I wasn't sure an ice machine would satisfy. I've been buying an 8 lb bag of ice from the local gas station every week or two for the past five or more years! I am happy to say I like this machine. If anything, I have MORE ice than I need. I run it for an hour or two and get a nice supply that lasts for one or two days. Having ice on demand means I have more room in my freezer because I am only storing about 4 lbs at a time.I have settled on the "medium" ice size. There was not much difference between large and medium, and I am not interested in small. The attached picture shows the ice (with tea) in a 26-ounce Yeti Rambler tumbler. I hope that gives an idea of the size.I was concerned about the ice texture - would it be too soft? One review said it was soft, but I disagree. It is a good, solid texture that hardens up even more in the freezer. I tried storing it in a stainless-steel bowl at first but quickly discovered that a plastic bag works best. There is inevitably some extra water that gathers in the ice before you bag it and it can freeze together. When you store in a plastic bag, you can easily break it up with a drop onto the countertop or floor.NOTE: this product freezes the ice, but there is no cooler to keep it from melting. The longer you leave it in the bin, the more it melts. I'll retrieve several times during my ice-making window, so I don't get too much melting or soggy ice.It is not very loud - probably a little louder than a refrigerator due to the fan being on the side, and the ice dropping into the bin. It is not bothersome, and I work about eight feet from it.I am not using the "smart" features. I don't need yet another app. Also, I can always tell the status of the machine since I can see it from my desk. 😊The instructions are poor, but it is pretty easy to figure out with their help. I recommend this - at least for now. My colleagues have told me the issue they have had with icemakers is that they break down pretty fast. I hope that's not the case, but if I start to have issues, I will definitely update this review.

This ice machine is awsome. I bought this machine 2 weeks ago and it works perfectly fine. It make a ton of ice in a short time. The app for this is amazing. It let's you everything you need to know. And the scheduling of the ice machine works so good. Only thing I can say. Is buy it, it's wonderful

THIS IS A GOOD ICE MACHINE. MAKE LARGE CUBED ICE IF THATS WHAT YOUR AFTER. WATER RESIVIOR IS LARGE AND THE QUALITY IS NICE AND DURABLE. WE HAVE USED THE SELF CLEANING MODE YET. BUT THATS A GREAT FUNCTION AND LOOKING FORWARD TO SEEING HOW WELL IT DOES. THIS IS A NICE ICE MACHING FOR THE COST. I ALSO LIKE THAT THE LIGHT IS BLUE UNTIL THE ICE BUCKETS FULL THEN GREEN LETTING YOU KNOW ITS FULL. OUR OTHER ICE MACHING WAS A BRAND NAME AND THIS IS ACTUALLY A BETTER MACHING FOR LESS COST. HOPEFULLY LAST FOR A FEW YEARS TO COME.

I bought this for being able to make mixed drinks and have ice, without needing a cooler full of it. I already had a nice big power station so powering this things camping, tailgating, or whatever was not an issue. It made plenty of ice for me and with my amount of use I could have probably served 3 or 4 people with it, at least. I had it in the rear cab of my truck and while it was not hot out, it was not cold either. The ice can melt fairly easy but the water recycles and new cubes come out rather quick. It did not leave me wanting for ice one time. If I was at home and could have put the cubes in a freezer I would have had plenty of ice on standby. I had an electric cooler too but I didn't have it freezing and the ice maker was making ice fast enough I didn't need to try and store any. I was very pleased with it. If I could change anything instead of the clear plastic ice holder I would like to see that part insulated so it would hold ice it makes a little longer. However, how they designed it I will say it looks nice and the lights make it much better looking than an insulated version would be. Not a big deal anyway.

Cumbersome, wastefull compared to trays. Ice comes out soaking so it freezes together in the freezer if you are making larger amounts for storing.The smart capabilities are about the only reason I bought this as I have a ton of other govee stuff. Works well though for quick access to ice if you're gonna use it right away. All the alerts and customization work perfectly in the app.I use filtered water for ice so that's why I'm so picky about the waste.
