Frigidaire Gallery, 33 Lbs. Countertop Ice Maker, Nugget Shaped Ice, Stainless Steel Trim, Black

After buying and RETURNING 3 other ice machines I finally found this one that works! It was a little more than the others but worth it. The ice is crunchy not slushy like the other ice makers were making, makes plenty of ice and easy to refill.

The media could not be loaded. Review of Frigidaire Ice Maker:I purchased this unit in April, and by August it had already failed. While it produced decent ice, it never came close to the advertised capacity, though it did make enough for light use.Unfortunately, the design is flawed. Every time the drawer is opened, water leaks out. The “solution” provided was a small tray meant to catch the water, but since the water spills to the sides rather than the front, the tray is essentially useless.The warranty service has also been very disappointing. Although the representatives were polite, the process was inefficient and frustrating. After completing their requirements (photos, receipt, personal information, etc.), I called back two days later because they rejected the photos, could not view the video I sent, and were unable to open either the audio file or the PDF of my receipt. They asked me to resend everything and admitted they would not have followed up for several more days if I had not called. Their own phone greeting warns against abusive language, which makes sense now—I can see how customers could become very frustrated with the process.The unit itself failed due to what appears to be bad bearings in the compressor or fan. Since it stopped producing ice altogether, I suspect the compressor.Overall, we are very disappointed in the quality. Frigidaire once had a reputation for dependable appliances, but this experience has convinced us that the brand is not what it used to be.Edit:After 11 email messages and three phone calls the company now wants me to send the unit back to them and for me to be responsible for packaging the unit and shipping it to them! Unbelievable that I paid $189.00 for this item and they want me to pay for shipping their defective product back to them. Again, I cannot stress enough that you do not want to purchase this ice maker!

The best nugget ice maker for the pice compared to the other models twice the price this is quiet, quick, and convenient. This holds 3.5-4 standard Kirkland water bottles and I fill it up about every other day with water. I use about 3-4 trips of refills for my coffee and waters so doesn’t run through a ton of water. I absolutely love this machine and don’t regret going with a cheaper model that the GE brands

I tried two other ice makers prior to this one and this one is superior. The others were loud and took forever to make ice. And you couldn’t keep the ice in the machine.

I have to admit, it works, as in it makes ice. It's also not terribly loud. You turn it on with a button, and stop it by pressing the same button once you are done making ice. The ice melts regardless of whether it is on or not, so there is no reason to have the machine on if you are not needing ice. That part probably wouldn't be so terrible, but.One thing that annoys the crap out of me regarding the melted ice. It does not provide a good way to drain the melt water. Per the instructions you physically have to pull the whole unit (not the lightest thing) off the counter top a few inches, remove a rubber drain plug from the bottom of the unit (mostly by feel) and let it drain into a bucket, and yes, its messy. This is just a ass-stupid design. They could have at least provided a removable tray, or built something better into the ice tray. The ice tray doesn't' even drain completely, so when you get near the bottom of the ice tray there is always a little melt water. The unit does have a removable drip tray, but it is pretty useless. It doesn't even attach to anything, just loosely sits on the counter where it is easily knocked aside. It's difficult removing the melt water without making a mess. Filling the reservoir is not exactly the cleanest process either, again thanks to the design. Speaking of design, a built in clock timer, like what is common with coffee pots and other small appliances would have been appreciated, but no such feature on this one.Anyway, I don't hate it enough to return it, though I rarely return anything. The product does what it advertises, it makes ice. The brainiac engineers really could have thought this one out a little better. I don't think I will be buying any more products from this brand..

Bought this ice maker on June 5 2025. Today it stopped working was making a screeching noise and was really hot. So disappointed.Loved it before this happened.My boss had same one and it happened to hers as well.

So far so good! My sister bought one in May and it just quit on her on August. She is having to go thru the warrant people and get another one sent to her at her expense. I’m hoping this one lasts longer than 3 months. I did take out an extra warranty on it just to be on the safe side.

Very good product works very well.
