Ice Makers – How to Choose the Right Ice Production Appliance

Capacity and ice production speed

Portable ice makers like Ledomat Gorenje IMD1200W produce 12-15 kg of ice daily, sufficient for an average household. One production cycle takes 6-13 minutes depending on cube size. Pay attention to water reservoir capacity (typically 2-3 liters) and the number of cubes produced per cycle.

Ice cube sizes and shapes

Most models offer 2-3 sizes of hollow bullet-shaped cubes – small for quick drink cooling, medium for everyday use, and large for slower melting in spirits. Hollow cubes form faster but also melt quicker. For commercial needs or long-term storage, choose models that make solid ice.

Portable or built-in solution

Portable models like Ledomat EM1001 require no installation – just plug in and manually refill water. Brands such as Gorenje, Vivax and VOX offer compact units ideal for offices or smaller kitchens. Built-in ice makers connect directly to plumbing and suit higher capacity requirements.

What to check before buying

Operating noise (measured in decibels) matters if you plan to keep the ice maker in living spaces – quieter models run below 45 dB. Verify there's a full reservoir indicator and automatic shut-off when the ice basket is full. ECG and other brands often include self-cleaning functions that simplify maintenance.
