Compact Design, Outsized Production
The NewAir Countertop Ice Maker takes up only about one square foot of counter space, but don't let its size fool you. This compact ice maker makes 33 pounds of ice each day — and looks great doing it. That’s almost the same as purchasing three 10 lb bags of ice from the store in a single day. That’s equivalent to buying 7 bags of store-bought ice.
Fast Freezing Means More Ice
Need ice quick? The NewAir Countertop Ice Maker makes a new batch of ice every eight minutes. Use the included scoop and removable ice tray to empty it regularly, and you'll have enough ice for any occasion.
Two Sizes of Ice
Choose from large or small bullet ice at the touch of a button. Small ice is perfect for drinks, while large ice easily fills coolers for outdoor activities. When you're done, the ice maker is easy to drain, clean and carry along on any adventure.
Intuitive Controls for Instant Gratification
There's no learning curve here! Simple, two-button operation makes set-up easy. Clear indicator lights let you know when ice is ready and when you need to add water — no guesswork required.
BPA-Free Parts
Safe drinking water is important to everyone — and that includes the ice you add to your glass. The NewAir Countertop Ice Maker is made entirely of BPA-free plastic, so no harmful chemicals will ever leach into your ice.

Frequently Asked Questions:
Can I store ice in this ice maker?
You can store ice temporarily as you make it. The storage compartment of this ice maker is not chilled, but it is well insulated to keep ice from melting for a time. For long-term storage, it's best to transfer to a freezer.
Don't all ice makers produce clear ice if you use distilled water?
Although bottled, filtered or distilled water may help create clear ice for regular ice makers, it often does not create completely clear ice. This residential ice maker produces perfectly crystal-clear ice thanks to its internal design, which forces water to cascade over chilled metal to remove air bubbles. No distilled water necessary.
Does this ice maker need to be connected to a water source?
No. All you need to do is fill the reservoir with water from the tap when you want to make ice.
Can this unit be left on all the time?
Yes! Because it costs $0.02 per hour to operate, you can have fresh ice whenever you like.
Is this countertop ice maker easy to clean?
Yes! Just unplug the machine and wipe the interior with a soft cloth. The ice basket is easy to remove to wash with warm, soapy water as well. You may also occasionally clean the evaporator rods with a 1:1 water and vinegar solution.
California Residents:
WARNING: This product can expose you to chemicals including styrene, which is known to the State of California to cause cancer. For more information see below.
What is this warning about?
This warning is the result of a unique law passed in California in 1986 called “Proposition 65.” Proposition 65 requires a warning to be included with any product sold in California that may contain any of the 900-plus chemicals that State of California regulators (as opposed to federal and other state regulators) consider harmful. As explained below, failure to provide a warning can result in significant costs and penalties in California.
Are products with this label safe to use?
Yes, Newair products are safe to use as instructed. Our products meet federal and state laws (including California’s) for safety and restricted substances. A Proposition 65 warning is a notification that a product may include a substance on California’s Proposition 65 list. The list is broad, subject to change, and contains substances that are found in products, sold and purchased in California, that are used or consumed in everyday living. For example, warnings have been required for coffee, vinegar, and fish, in addition to many other commonly-used products.
I purchased this product outside of California. Why are you showing this message to me?
Newair products are sold throughout the U.S. to retailers with national distribution. Each distribution warehouse can and does serve multiple states, including California. To avoid the potential Proposition 65 costs and penalties if a product without a warning is brought into California, we decided to include these warnings, regardless of origin of purchase.
If this product is safe, why does Newair include this warning?
For purposes of Proposition 65, the fact that the product meets federal and state safety standards is irrelevant. If there is even a trace amount of a Proposition 65 chemical in the product, it is up to the manufacturer to prove that the amount falls below California’s minimum exposure level. What constitutes “exposure” is poorly defined and the decision is often left to the courts. For a manufacturer, the legal fees to contest a Proposition 65 case are significant. Because providing a warning removes all of these potential costs and litigation risks, Newair and many other manufacturers have opted to provide the Proposition 65 warning.
Doesn't the state of California require evidence of harm to humans prior to posting chemicals on the Proposition 65 list?
No. In fact, California regulators require no evidence of harm or even likelihood of harm to humans prior to placing a chemical on the Proposition 65 list. Instead, evidence from animal testing has been deemed sufficient, even when those tests on animals are conducted with outlandish dosages.
Can a chemical be on the Proposition 65 even if it is considered to be safe by the FDA and EPA?
Yes. There are a variety of examples of products that have been deemed safe by the FDA and/or EPA that are on the California Proposition 65 list. The FDA & EPA have done studies with humans and deemed products safe, but based on the animal testing and extremely high doses, those same products are still listed on California’s Proposition 65 list.
