Euhomy Pearl L1 Plus Nugget Ice Maker Review: 44 lbs a Day

Quick summary: My days of buying ice are over. The Euhomy Pearl L1 Plus nugget ice maker starts making ice in 7 to 10 minutes, makes up to 44 lbs a day, and needs no water line. It’s under $200, and code Gregg takes $50 off.

The ice

It makes nugget ice that’s chewable and not too hard. It’s great in cold water, juice or an adult beverage, and a scoop is included.

Controls

• Light: tap it to check how much ice is in the bin.
• Ice: one tap to start making ice. If the tank is empty, it tells you it needs water.
• Clean: one-touch self-cleaning takes about 20 minutes. I add a little vinegar to the water. Afterward, remove the spout at the bottom to drain the rest into the sink.

Water

Lift out the 1.8-liter reservoir lid, pour water in, and it starts making ice. Use filtered or bottled water for the best performance. Since it doesn’t need a water line, you can use it anywhere with power, which I think is an understated feature.

Other details

• Both the ice basket and the water tray come out, so you can serve from the basket, bag ice, or clean the tray.
• It comes with a 1-year warranty.

Verdict

It’s super simple, self-cleaning, fast, and makes tons of ice for parties, get-togethers or everyday use. It pays for itself quickly compared with buying ice.
