It doesn’t consume a lot of electricity and your power consumption for the whole year is 10 Kilowatt hours. With the 120V of voltage this modern ice maker water dispenser can be plugged into any of the US power outlets. It has the auto defrost function and you do not need to any manual defrosting for this unit. The materials used are stainless steel and solid plastic and has that high end look and feel overall. In the package you will get the main ice making machine, ice bin, ice scoop, side tank and drip tray.

Please note that the water line does not come with a built-in filter. The ice that goes into the ice bin will stay frozen for up to 18 hours, which will also depend on the ambient temperature. So it is up to when you wish to empty the ice bin into your fridge freezer or drinks. It is a great quality 3-in-1 Ice Maker & Crusher that produces ice very quickly and is built to last with the good quality components. The crushed nugget ice it makes is a bit like sonic ice and we like the ice cold water dispensing function very much. But it is not a particularly small unit and will take up some space on your countertop.
