How We Chose Our Top Picks
Quality of Ice: Whether you have a preference for ice styles or are just fine with it as long as it's cold and keeps your drinks chilled, most ice makers offer standard or specialty ices. For the best value, look for models that produce multiple ice shape options, often known as nugget, sonic, cube, crescent, etc.
Size: How much an ice maker can hold directly relates to the size of the appliance. So if you need one if you go through ice quickly, storage capacity will come second to its production rate. Whereas, if you are using your ice maker for additional ice for events, parties, or daily use, then a high-capacity ice bin is what you need.
Maker Style: Undercounter ice maker aesthetics have many options and it really just comes down to a user's preference and style. Although most models have black, white, stainless steel, and other bright colors as options along with different finishes, there are ice makers with custom panel door styles to match the look of wood.
