How noble of you to protect your viewers. #Integrity
Without our viewers I can't do this for a living. They mean everything to us.
Outstanding chacater. You are a great man. You know you have fans for life.
Always love watching your product videos....know we will get an honest review about it's features and how everything actually works and any tips you've learned along the way with your testing....keep them coming!
Thanks for the new review Andrew. Please make sure to keep us updated on all of your reviewed products if any of them ever have an issue. As you know your subscribers take your suggestions seriously and when the time comes to purchase a product we often look to your reviews as to what model to get.
That is the definition of integrity. That is the reason you have so many followers. You are the best reviewer Andrew.
I would love one of these too! Thank you for testing it first!
We should nickname you "The Ice King" 👍 Kudos on handling the situation with the previous company - that's part of why we love this channel so much! Nice unit by the way💜💜💜
My wife recently purchased a nugget ice maker from lowes, this one looks like it has much better features
Awesome educational video. Thanks for sharing. 🤠
Andrew your channel is my favorite, you put out so much great information. I even started some projects I probably wouldn't have tackled without your videos Thanks
Great to hear, thank you for watching and the support.
Hmmm Sonic ice with some chili and lime powder sounds goods. Old Mexican treat back in the day .
Interesting
Thanks brother… great review, honest.
Brilliant! I need this... Thank you for sharing the time and info! I've been searching Craigslist for the last several years to buy a commercial model but never found the right deal. This looks like the right deal for what I had in mind.
Mine is still working well
Always informative and thorough. Love watching your videos. Cheers from Oklahoma.
Thank you for watching
Cant beat some chewy ice. It's additive for sure. Very nice of you to look out for the customer in the last partnership Andrew. Another reason you're at 100k and going to climb my friend. Take care!
Take care sir!
Hi Andrew I am really liking these ice makers. If I hadn’t just bought a new fridge w/ an ice maker I would defiantly buy one. When you get them in the fridge there is always problems. Love the one you were just showing, Thanks. 👍👍❤️❤️🇨🇦
Thank you for watching
Nice unit. Thanks for the review and efforts.
Thanks for watching!
What a great machine I didn't even know they made portable ice makers. I'm always buying bagged ice. Looks like a great product.
On a great sale today as well for Amazon prime day.
One of the reasons I strongly support you is because of your strength of character. It's so hard to find people that won't bend to the almighty dollar. I would be proud to call you a friend. Excellent review as well.
That money isn't everything. That previous company I cut ties with was actually quite lucrative for us. With that said, as soon as they started giving a couple of viewers the runaround I told them to kick rocks. I don't care about the money or affiliate sales over our viewers who support us.
@@TKCL Here's hoping this new company exceeds those affiliate sales AND has better customer service.
I love nugget ice. Jacks has the nugget ice. My ice maker in the refrigerator quit working so I buy ice from Jacks and put it in my ice container and get my ice through the door. I found out that if you let it sit in the freezer for about 30 minutes and then get something that you can hit the ice and it separates like you just bought it.
Thanks for the video!
Congratulations!!! I have been looking for an ice maker for work. I will check this out!!!
Thank you for watching
Andrew, hopefully suppliers are going to start beating a path to your door to get their products known by your subscribers. The fact that you are willing to cut ties with one that doesn't treat one of your subscribers properly speaks volumes about your character. That is just one of the many reasons your followers stay with you. Great job!
I don't play games with them, I was making excellent affiliate sales with the last company. But mistreat one of our viewers and I'm done with you. Things happen, but make it right.
That’s too bad to hear about the other company being negative but kudos to you for doing the right thing Andrew. That’s why we all like watching your videos. Your just a good person
Fantastic video
Awesome, I'm going to have to buy one now!!!
😬
I love watching your channel. I've installed the front and rear cameras on my 4052r, they work great. I am also going to be spending more money on a nugget ice maker now, as me and my family love to chew ice lol!
Great to hear, glad you enjoy the content.
I appreciate the video
I’ve been looking for the right nugget maker to purchase and this seem to be the best one so far. I hope I get to win one fingers crossed
Love it!
Nugget ice is great. We've had ours (different brand than the one in this video) since Apr 2017. The real key to success for long life with these ice makers regardless of brand is to CLEAN THEM REGULARLY. Seriously, it is critical. Ours sits on the counter 24x7 making ice on-demand, and we don't have our ice maker in the freezer even turned on anymore - it was just getting old. Good to know about this brand and model, and looking forward to hearing how long it lasts for folks who give it a go.
What ice maker do you have ??? Still looking to buy buy on fixed income ????
@@HeartLess-uz5vs Hi! We have the original Firstbuild Opal Nugget Ice Maker. GE now produces and sells it, so you could search for "opal nugget ice maker" in Google and see the current offerings. I see they now have a 2.0 version available; though I'm not sure what the differences are between that and the 1.0 version. Hope this helps.
@@HeartLess-uz5vs Oh, and definitely get the side tank if you decide to go with this brand/model. Game changer!
How many years till he has to build a new barn just to store all his icemakers in? I feel like we should start a support group, I.M.A.
We are his support group, just not in a good way! We encourage this behavior
Lol I love ice! I've been giving away some ice makers to family who need them. Just gave away one last week.
Andrew great video, because my wife and I just looked at the GE profile version yesterday. I will look at this one and make a decision on which one. Thank you for your time and videos.
Thank you for watching
Let’s go ready for the giveaways!!! Love your content man. Actually bought the outdoor mini fridge you did a review on from R.W. Flame 🔥
Mines been doing well, how about yours?
@@TKCL same as well, got it indoors & keep it set around 36. Perfect temp drinks!
I would suggest on the next version the company add the option for a water line fill like on a refrigerator
I’m a nugget ice fan, for sure!! Would love one of these.
Tell Santa you want one lol.
Andrew I have one of the other brand that you had, I’m having so so luck with it this one looks better. The one that I have sometimes leaks water out of it on the counter.
Sorry to hear that Mr Mike. Our old model is still working well. But that company wasn't honoring warranty right or treating viewers well. I told them to kick rocks.
@@mikerichard-FOPA3it would be nice if you mentioned what brand your leaking ice maker was …… I hope not GE … 12/12/23💐
OMG I love it you call it Sonic ice we call it soft ice you always find the cool stuff keep up the good work. If y’all ever head down to the Tamps area for anything let us know
Tampa area
Thank you
Looks like a nice machine.
It is!
Can’t wait
We bought the RW Flame nugget one when you reviewed it with your discount and had issues straight away. It would work great about an hour then just stop producing ice like it was froze up so we’d turn it off and let it all melt and turn back on then it would work great again another hour or so. Contacted RW Flame with no results. Called the number that came with unit and lady gave me email to send all my info she wanted And nothing. Did that twice. So we definitely won’t be buying anything from them again either. Was nice spending less money but if it doesn’t work right and company has terrible customer service it’s not worth the savings. I have several friends that have the GE profile Opal 2.0 for years now with no issues. They have theirs on 24/7 too. They are double the price but hey they work lol. At least I still can use ours if I’m home and can babysit it. I’m super happy to hear you aren’t promoting RW Flame though. A lot of creators could care less if the companies customer service sucks. Me and my husband watch all your videos and we don’t live that way apart so when you’re talking about preparing for certain weather conditions we’re doing the same in northwest Florida lol. Love the channel and so happy you’ve got 100k subscribers now. Next 1 million :)
That far apart^
Very sorry to hear that, that's the kind of feedback I need to hear. I cut ties with that company last year after I seen how bad the customer service was.
That’s a nice machine. It’s amazing how many devices now feature Bluetooth so you can remote connect to them.
I know, it seems everything offers that now.
Love nugget ice. We've had 2 New Air makers, the 1st stopped working inside a year and they sent us a new one. I bought the warranty on the 2nd one and it broke just outside the manufacturer warranty so they sent me $$$ to reimburse me. I am not buying another New Air. Maybe I'll try this one next....only has 2.8 stars on Amazon 😮
I love counter top ice makers because the ice never gets that "freezer" taste. Too bad this wasn't available when I bought mine.
Cool... 🙂
You sold me I really want one
I watched this whole video not knowing that the icemaker was going to be $500😂
500??? They have always been in the $200s. You must have found it with one left and an absurd markup.
WHAT?! $500 .OMG for that price it Better have a light 💡 sled cleaning quiet & makes my breakfast 🍳 in the morning !12/23 ps thanks for warning 💐💐
Nice video it would be nice if you were more clear with the name/brand of the ice maker? I'm in Canada your link does not work
My Wife loves Sonic ice. She goes fo Sonic drive-thru just to buy their nugget ice.
I know a lot of people that do. This is on Amazon prime day sale 😉
If you crave chewing on ice, it may be a precursor to diabetes. I was eating ice all the time, then one day at a scheduled physical, they checked my sugar.......yep, diabetes (type 2).
I personally don't care for chewing it, but I ha e heard this before.
Drinking ANY water a lot during the day is hint of diabetes .. I don’t like drinking water but like chewing ice to aid in losing weight (chewing ice better than chewing potato chips … 💐💐💐💐💐)
People just love the pregnancy ice
@@HeartLess-uz5vsyeah that's not a thing
Sometimes it's not that deep! Ice cubes in trays is where that came from , people are so extra did you die?Did anyone die from ice cubes ?why are y'all looking at videos of the deadly ice machine???
Lots of features for a really good price. May have to try this. But I gotta say, what chilled me in this video wasn't the ice. I have an icemaker and bag and put up my extra ice, stored in freezer bags just like you. But I would never ever break up those bags by throwing them on the floor. The floor is going to be dirty, no way around it. And the bags do tear or get contaminated in filth and there's no way I want that on bags of ice I will be eating. So I keep a dead blow hammer in my freezer. Wooden handle, rubber head. Cheap at Harbor Freight. Never leaves my freezer. Never used for hitting anything except bags of ice, and washable if it ever gets dirty. That hammer is the only thing that I use for breaking up bags of ice. There's also no risk of hard bags of ice bashing the floor. My mom used to bang bags of ice against the fridge door and it made the door look like five miles of bad road. Using a dedicated freezer hammer saves all that damage.
A mallet is a good idea.
I use an ice pick but like your idea of rubber mallet better ! - thank you 🙏 ❤12/23
Wait, huge question. Do I need to freeze the ice in the gallon size bags like y’all do afterwards? Or can I just have this on my counter top at all times?
You can keep it running, but it's going to use more electricity and reduce the life of the unit. We only use it when needed.
👍👍
Does this make ice like the kind called crushed ice in a convenience store self serve soda machine?
No, this is small same size nuggets. No crushed chunks.
I just received mine’s today and it didnt have the ice bucket. Bummer was excited to get and that happens
Oh wow, that's definitely a packing mistake. Did you get it from Amazon? They will for sure make it right.
We have the GE model and the biggest issue we had with that one was when it’s hot in the kitchen say it’s 90 degrees in the kitchen it will not make any ice at all, I have tried to work with the company but they used that as an excuse. The reason it’s hot in the kitchen is no AC in the house, works really good in the winter 😂 but summer time don’t work so good. Will this one work when the temp is to high in the room it’s at?
Oh wow! I'd die without AC 🤣
He just gave you your answer with out outright saying it … if you have no air conditioner this machine won’t work either … that’s how I took his reply … sorry your machine won’t work in hot weather thats Gotta SUCK ! It’s hard enough when your on fixed income & not in best of health it wud be nice to know you could count on an ice maker to keep your body cool down in summer …wow … I didnt know this about ice makers 12-12-23 CUSTOMERS SHOULD BE TOLD THIS !! … 💐💐💐💐
Your jumping to conclusions and assuming things, this will absolutely work without your house having AC. It's got its own compressor.
I bought the previous nugget ice maker you featured and had a terrible experience, also. The company ran me around for two months before PayPal forced them to refund the full price. I made the mistake of buying directly from the company rather than paying an extra $50 and ordering thru Amazon.
Very sorry to hear that, I refuse to work with any company that does that. I love Amazon's customer service and return policy.
@@TKCL Congrats to you guys on 100K, it couldn't happen to better peeps :-)
Thank you
What did you buy why wont people say what bad machine they use ???
Video starts at 2:25
According to the description of the listing, it’ll make 40 pounds of ice? Is that per day or does it require constant monitoring as it produces ice?
Those are always per day numbers in perfect conditions. You will have to dump the basket every couple of hours or it fills up and cuts off. It's just the nature of a table top machine. We usually put up several gallon bags of ice in a day when I am running it while working around the house.
@@TKCL It’s just funny how misleading their descriptions can be.
most of these countertop style ice makers end up breaking or something going wrong with them after a short amount of time. Is this another one of those that will eventually develop the same common problems (from several comments in general ppl complain of loud noises from the ice maker, leaks, etc..)??
Maybe so, but I own two and run them hard. One for over a year, guess I'm lucky. No issues thus far.
@@TKCL good to know, I'm thinking of getting this one, just hope Freezimer stands by their product if something should go wrong. Too many negative stories about horrible customer service after the sale.
Hard to say to be honest, I've yet to have a problem.
I’m curious, can’t I just leave it plugged in 24/7 and just use the ice whenever I need it?
You could I guess, but you'll wear it out a lot quicker.
Sadly your link on Amazon for the ice maker goes nowhere??
It's been replaced by a newer model.
I love sonic ice! Are you using filtered water?
Yes I am, we have a pitcher that filters the water
You have a nice name!
Ditto
Hi there your link doesn’t appear to be working any more. Do you have an updated one?
That's because they discontinued this unit. I wish I had a newer model tested, but I don't.
@@TKCL well that stinks lol
2:25 Hi. The Amazon link isn’t working.
They now offer a new model, sorry.
@@TKCL thanks
Hello, im just discovering your channel and its really great! I tried to order this via your link. Its unavailable do you have another link for this?
Sadly I just found out they have a new model that replaced this one. This is from the same company. amzn.to/3uCT3gs
@@TKCL aaaaw dang it!! Your review was so good I decided I wanted that model! This makes me sad! Thank you so much for answering me, I really appreciate you.
@@TKCL have you done a review on this version yet? I would love to see that
@bosslady8091 no I have not, sorry.
@@TKCL darn it!!!!! Lol lol 😂
Where's Cash, he's slacking today🤣
He's probably still in bed. He's 3 hours behind us.
Yes I was sleeping. But during the week I'm up a lot earlier
We had a GE Opal that completely failed 5 days after warranty, they didnt want to make an exception (fair since it technically was past date) so we are giving the Feeezimer a go!
Please let me know your experience with it, I like to know who I'm recommending. Ours is working great.
So here’s my update after 2 weeks. Lately it’s been saying “ice full” and when we check it, it’s barely got any ice in it. Almost at my wits end with ice makers
Did you get it from Amazon? They'll cover it, if not I have a direct email to the companies customer service department.
Update #2 the second one is now defective. Sounds like those ghost Halloween decorations from the 90s
Man I sure hate hearing that, ours is still rolling along. What happened this time?
Where u buy them
Link is in the video description, from Amazon.
Amazon will not ship it to Alaska. Guess they figure that Alaska doesn't need anymore ice up here. lol.
Lol maybe so
So no more vevor?
No no, I am working with Vevor. They don't offer a nugget ice machine. It was another company in the past that I had to cut ties with because they didn't treat a viewer fairly on warranty and I didn't agree with it one bit.
@@TKCL I love and respect the dedication to your channel. It can’t be easy to make good videos daily but you are creative with the way you release varied content.
Or you can go to sonic and ask for a 10pound thing of ice 😁😁😁
That's a 40 mile round trip for us.
Good day all. Ice tea or Lemon aide?
Tough choice

@@HeartLess-uz5vs We own the GE Opal ver 1 and like it. We only use filtered water from our Zero Water counter top filter. This baby will never get hard. Water deposits. You still have to clean them with bleach because they will develop bacteria when you have kids that reach their hands in to get ice. If you buy a used one, make sure that it is working, doesn’t have signs of hard, water deposits, and doesn’t make any weird noises.
