Sunpentown IM-100 Conclusion

The Sunpentown IM-100 portable ice maker is a great option for those looking to make a larger amount of ice than a portable unit makes. The finish is silver, thus allowing the Sunpentown IM-100 to match many modern kitchen appliances, but it is not stainless steel, which some buyers may prefer. Unlike some competing models, it has a built-in viewing window on the top so you can monitor the progress of your ice-making.

The biggest distinguishing feature of the Sunpentown IM-100 is its larger size. Some users may complain that this makes it heavier (and therefore, slightly less portable), and the increased height may become a problem for those looking to store the unit under a kitchen cabinet, seeing as how the lid opens upward. While this can become a problem, the larger size becomes a benefit when one considers that the IM-100 can also produce more in a day and store more ice than many competing models. Overall, the Sunpentown IM-100 portable ice maker is an excellent choice for anyone who has a little extra space and needs just a little more ice.
