Is the ice good for chewing?** A: roughly 1/2" x 3/4" and hollow in the center. Yes good for chewing and great for making iced drinks in the blender. **Q: Does the ice tray dump the ice once it's frozen and then refill the ice tray to make more? OR do you have to manually empty the tray?** A: The machine makes 8 or 10 little donuts of ice every 5 minutes or so and dumps it into a holding basket. When the basket is full it shuts itself off. However the basket needs to be emptied into your freezer to hard freeze. The ice fingers are very watery and melty until set in a freezer. They have a tendency to freeze together in the fridge's freezer. I have to break them apart to use them later. **Q: How does the water hook up work, can you run a line to a 5 gallon jug of water?** A: You have to manually fill it with water. I have a Tupperware batter bowl that holds 8 cups. When the water is running low, I fill it up and pour it into the reservoir that holds the water. Had it for two hot summers and it has been going strong. I highly recommend purchasing this ice maker! **Q: What color is the ice? White or clear?** A: The color of ice has to do with the clarity of the water to start with. It has nothing to do with the freezing component. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Works amazingly well. Great purchase. *by G***. on July 19, 2016* Have a vacation place where the fridge doesn't have an ice maker. For years we lived with the pain of ice trays. So figured we'd give this unit a try. It is really simple to use - you lift out the basket which catches the ice, and fill the reservoir with water - up to the point where the plastic level changes. Put the basket back it, and turn it on.You have two choices of ice size - I chose large, which is about the size of a large finger tip. It would take about 12 minutes to make a batch of ice, and will continue until the ice basket is full or it runs out of water. If either of these occurs, it will light an indicator.The ice is hollow in the center and damp when made. This is because it works by creating a dam which it fills with water and then lowers the refrigerated "fingers" into the water which the ice forms on. When the time is up, the remaining water goes back into the reservoir, and the cubes drop into the basket.The unit itself is not refrigerated. It is insulated and stays cool while making ice because of the refrigerated fingers. But the ice will melt with the water going back into the reservoir if you don't take it out.Because the cubes are damp, if you move them to your freezer, they will freeze to each other. We would fill 1 gallon freezer ziplock bags with the ice. When we wanted ice we would bang the bag onto the counter top to separate the cubes.How well did this work? We never ran out of ice while our place had 12 people with the outside temperatures in the 90s with 90% humidity. It can make over 20lbs a day. We would run as needed to keep about 4 of the gallon bags full (probably 10lbs)You can hear the fan if you are near it. You can hear the water pump and the dumping of the ice too. So it is not silent. We did not mind. It became a running joke for someone to say - "ice is ready" when we would hear it dump another load.It does come with a little plastic ice scoop which you can use to scoop the ice out the basket if you want to fill a glass directly. Also, if you like to chew ice (sorry ADA) by being hollow in the middle they crunch pretty easily.Next to a new king size mattress, this was the best purchase for the vacation house. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Wonderful *by A***A on May 5, 2015* I love our rented home but our freezer does not have an ice maker, nor are there pipes behind the fridge if we wanted to install one. Ice trays are a huge fight for us, because someone always leaves the empty trays on the counter. Bagged ice works for a while, but having to buy ice regularly gets frustrating. Did I mention we live in Florida? Ice is a necessity here, and half the time the gas stations & grocery stores are out of bags. I was fed up with the entire ice situation, until now. This machine is my new best friend. It is a little noisy, but it is a consistent white noise so it drowns out pretty easily. Filling the tank with water yields about 3 full baskets, and 3 full baskets fills about a gallon size zip-lock freezer bag. I run the machine for a couple of hours maybe twice a week, and that seems to be enough to keep us stocked with 3 or 4 full gallon bags. The ice cubes are cute little gumdrop shapes, even the large ones are small, but they work just the same. The machine pauses when the basket of ice is full, if you forget about it the ice will stay frozen for a few hours (it's essentially a cooler), and when the ice melts it just drops back into the water reservoir, and the machine will make new ice from it. When the machine runs out of water it will auto shut off. It looks good on my counter, the black and stainless steel compliment my kitchen. I put it at a diagonal on the counter so as not to block the fan on the side. I would imagine that if the fan is blocked it could potentially over heat, as it does get warm. I would definitely recommend this product to anyone in my situation, or anyone who entertains often. My next home will definitely have a functional ice machine in the freezer, and this will be great addition for a wet or dry bar, or by the pool! ### ⭐ Save yourself the headache and just buy the bags of ice.... *by Y***N on February 8, 2016* piece of crap...I bought it on 9/5/15 and in December, not even 3 months later it was having problem. First it started making micro ice, that is what I call it, where it is super tiny and melts very fast. Then in January 2016, it started reading as Ice Full, all the time. I would open and close the lid and it would work for a while.Then it completely decided not to work. So on 2/3/16 I called Curtis, because it was still under warranty period, and the extended warranty I had bought told me to do it this way. They told me to reset the ice maker. I did. It was a pain.It did start to make really tiny ice,even smaller than before, but the ice full light was always on and I had to empty tray each time it made ice for it to make a new batch.On 2/5/16 it totally died... nothing. so i went to drain it, and the stopper on the bottom broke off in the unit causing water to shoot all over the counter tops... yay!... and once emptied it was left to dry.On 2/8/16, today, I called Curtis, to let them know, the reset didn't work. I called at 9:10am, Sam hung up on me. I called at 9:12 am, Paul hung up on me. I called at 9:17 and finally Daisy, did not hang up on me. She was very nice, but I am still not happy with the way they go about their repair process:I had to pay $7, right then, for their insurance, for after the repair to ship it back to me.I have to pack it in a safe box, and pay to ship it back to them. Included all this info, plus sales receipt. Describe the issues in detail with all the previous calls and issues also in detail.After all that, they will repair it and ship it back to me.I will update after I get the unit back.*** UPDATE****2-8-16... so I just found out it will cost me $65 to ship it back... I can't believe a company can get away with this kind of customer service.I am so disgusted with Curtis International ltd. I am shipping it back and will update again when i get it back.****UPDATE****11-2-16Update********************************So after I paid the $7 insurance, the $65 to ship it, Curtis Int. did ship me a total brand new one. It was an Igloo same design, same color, same buttons, same Issues, Just with Igloo instead of RCA... It lasted 2 months and totally died.I had to wait till Sept 2016 to use my extended Warrenty.They didn't even want this turd back.They told me don't bother shipping it back and they just refunded me my purchase price, not shipping on an Amazon Gift Card.So to sum it up. This Ice Maker is crap. Save your MONEY, and just buy the bags of ICE.This unit costed me $127 the first time, $8.99 Assurion Extended Warrenty, after it died (RCA) $7 insurance to Curtis International, $ 65 to USPS to ship it back to get repaired, they just replaced it... and a grand total of $207.99 and I am right back to buying bags of ICE...Save your $$$$$, RCA and the Replacement IGLOO, both are crap and both died.HOpe this helps. ## Frequently Bought Together - RCA RIC102-Silver Compact Ice Maker, Silver - Essential Values 2-Pack Ice Machine Cleaner and Descaler 16 fl oz, Nickel Safe Descaler | Ice Maker Cleaner Compatible with All Major Brands (Scotsman, KitchenAid, Affresh) --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.hk/products/1953383-rca-ric102-silver-compact-ice-maker-silver](https://www.desertcart.hk/products/1953383-rca-ric102-silver-compact-ice-maker-silver) --- *Product available on Desertcart Hong Kong* *Store origin: HK* *Last updated: 2026-05-19*
