Questions and answers

How much ice does it make in a day?
Up to 27 lbs. per day, in cycles as short as 7 minutes. The bin itself holds only 1.5 lbs., so you empty it into a freezer for bulk storage.

Bullet-style cubes in two sizes, small and large, selected on the digital control panel.
How big is it?
14.1 in deep, 12.1 in tall and 9.5 in wide, so it fits on most counters and patio tables.
