High Volume Portable Ice Maker FARM HOME Food 27-4-33 You can make ice cubes any time and anywhere with this new portable, self-contained ice cube maker. It can make up to 29 lbs. of ice cubes per day.
"It works great for entertaining large groups of people. You can make the ice right on location," says Ron Baerwitz, WindChaser Products, Marina Del Rey, Calif.
The "Ice Man" operates on 110-volt electricity and has a stainless steel body that measures 16 1/4 in. high, 14 in. wide, and 15 1/2 in. deep. It consists of an insulated storage compartment covered by a hinged lid. A metal basket in the front part of the compartment holds 2 1/2 to 3 lbs. of ice, with a water reservoir located under the basket. The machine is fully automatic - all you do is plug it in, flip the lid open, and pour in a little under a gallon of water into the reservoir. Water is pumped from the reservoir into a tray equipped with a series of 12 rods on which the ice forms.
Three different sized ice cubes can be made, with the size determined by pressing a button on front of the unit. The longer the water freezes on the rods, the bigger the cubes become. It takes 6 to 10 minutes to make 12 cubes, depending on cube size. Then the tray drops down and the rods heat up, allowing the cubes to slide off into the basket which can then be lifted out.
"It's well made and weighs only 44 lbs. so it's relatively easy to move around," says Baerwitz. " Once the basket is full the unit automatically shuts off. It also shuts off automatically if the reservoir runs out of water. It isn't refrigerated but it's well insulated so the cubes will last a long time without melting. If any ice does melt, the water drips back down into the reservoir and is made into ice again."
Sells for less than $600 plus S&H.
