This is a review of the Frigidaire EFIC235-AMZ Countertop Crunchy Chewable Nugget Ice Maker. We purchased it last week on the coldest day of the year! This ice machine produces the "Sonic Ice" that everyone loves to chew on, and does not require any special plumbing for installation. It's great for my small kitchen, since I cannot let an entire cabinet go to an under-the-counter device. (This is also about is 1/3 of the price of one of the larger models I could get at a big box hardware store.) The amount of ice it produces (44 lbs per day) is plenty for my family.
