Ecozy Did It Again – Huge Upgrade & Perfect for the Whole Family! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐This is my second Ecozy product, and this newer ice maker is a massive upgrade from the model I had before. I liked the old one, but this one feels like it leveled up in every possible way—and I honestly didn’t expect to be this impressed!Right off the bat, the sleek, compact design fits perfectly on our kitchen countertop without taking over the space. It looks high-end and modern, and it’s clearly built to last. The unit feels sturdy and durable, which is exactly what we need in a busy household.It’s packed with smart, practical upgrades:• Vibrant icons and real-time TDS + temperature display—clear visuals that make it easy to monitor everything at a glance.• Advanced double-layer insulation—ice stays colder 20% longer, with noticeably less melting.• Pull-out water tank + removable ice basket—makes refills and clean-up super easy.• Smart app & voice control—I can start or stop it from anywhere using the EcozyHome app or voice commands with Alexa (or if you have Google Assistant that will work too).• Produces up to 44 lbs of ice daily—plenty for hosting, cooking, or just keeping the family hydrated.• Built-in LED basket light—no more guessing if we’re running low on ice.• Self-cleaning mode + removable parts—keeping it fresh and clean is truly effortless.It’s perfect for our family of four—well, five if you count the dog, who now expects “water cookies” (aka nugget cubes) every single time the door opens. 😂 We pay the toll happily, because the chewable ice is that good!If you’re thinking about upgrading or buying your first Ecozy, this is the one to get. Smarter, faster, cleaner, and just makes life easier. Absolutely worth it.

Owning the other model of this ice maker I can say that this upgrade was totally worth it. Ecozy really hit the mark with this one.While still making the same quality pellet ice, several of the issues I had with the previous model have been addressed.Not only was it a chore to add water to the other model, it seemed like I was adding water every time we took ice.With the removable tank, adding water is not only easier as you no longer need to remove the ice bucket but it's also less frequent because the tank holds close to 2 liters.The way the ice drops into the bin now, when the full light is on, it truly means the bin is full and not just time to redistribute the mountain of ice that builds up in the center. After turning on the ice maker in about an hour I have a full bin of ice without the ice shuffle every 10 minutes.Finally the extra insulation that comes from setting the ice bucket back a bit does allow the ice to melt more slowly. However that seems to cause the ice to block up a bit and requires a little chopping with the scoop to break it up after sitting for a bit. This doesn't seem to happen with the other one, but is not that big of a deal as it breaks up easily.

This is a nice machine, and it makes crunchy nugget ice, but not “Sonic” ice. This is really being picky, perhaps, but if it Is important for you to get the soft chewy crunch very similar to what you get at Sonic, this machine is a little bit off the mark.The app connects easily and works well. The appearance is nice; however, whether you view the colorful control panel as a nice touch or a little too much attention grabbing may depend on your taste. I really like the TDS sensor, but the number the ice maker was displaying was considerably different than the tester I purchased to measure our tap water. I am not sure which one was off, and I have not run any kind of calibration test, but at least with this machine, you have something with which you can compare one water source to another.The unit makes nice, clear ice quickly and the ice stayed in the bin for quite a while (seems to be pretty well insulated). The bin is a little bit on the small side, but big enough to get the job done. The water reservoir is not very big, and there is no option to add additional capacity, but again, it does the job and refilling is very easy. The good part about that is that it doesn’t take up too much space on the counter top, and it fits easily under standard cabinets. One review said that this ice maker does not recycle the water from the melted ice, but it does in fact do so. The unit is reasonably quiet, but you will know that it is running when it is making ice - it is not whisper quiet, but I wouldn’t expect it to be.This machine is priced lower than some and seems to be a quality product, it just doesn’t make the type of ice I was trying to get. I returned this ice maker and bought another one made (marketed) by a very large US corporation, and it makes ‘softer’ ice, more like the “Sonic” ice I wanted.

Bought this ice maker a week ago. Instructions say not to use distilled water. So we use Samsung fridge filtered water (new filter only 3 days old). The "TDS" was 400+! Changed to distilled and it was under 100. Yesterday notified via wifi to "run a clean cycle". We did that with distilled water. TDS tonight is 56!! Makes a lot of COLD nuggets! B4 my Yet 40 oz cup wld hv melted nuggets by morning... hv lots of ice in the am using this ice machine! Love it! On Sale right now for another $40 off at $369... we pd $399 and wld do it again!! Buy it now if u need a great nugget machine. From my research this is the only 1 that us insulated too!!
