Overview
The EUHOMY HZB-12E is a countertop nugget ice maker that produces soft, chewable pellet ice, up to 34 lbs a day, in 6-8 minute batches. It targets households and small offices that specifically want Sonic-style crushed ice rather than standard cubes.
Like other countertop ice makers, this one makes ice rather than storing it frozen, so a full basket left untouched for hours will start to clump and re-melt. The app-based scheduling feature that EUHOMY advertises drew specific complaints about failing to connect, so treat the smart features as a bonus rather than the reason to buy.
- 34 lbs of nugget ice per day capacity
- 6-8 minute first-batch cycle time
- 1.8 lb removable ice basket
- Under 50 dB rated operating noise
Who it's for
Suits anyone who specifically wants pellet-style chewable ice for drinks, coffee, or snacking and is prepared to run it daily rather than stockpile a batch. Not a fit for buyers expecting the ice to stay loose and frozen if left in the basket for long stretches, or anyone relying on the companion app to work reliably.
Pros and cons
- Produces genuinely soft, chewable nugget ice
- Compact footprint for a nugget-style machine
- Auto-clean cycle simplifies maintenance
- Handle makes it easy to move or pack
- App reportedly fails to connect for scheduling
- Ice does not stay loose once fully made
- Full basket takes roughly two hours to build
Performance notes
A 1.2 quart water tank feeds an 8-minute cycle that produces enough nugget ice to fill roughly one cup, building toward a 1.8 lb basket capacity over about two hours of continuous cycling. An auto-clean function runs a 15-minute internal rinse when triggered, and the unit shuts off automatically once the basket sensor reads full or water runs low. Left standing, finished nuggets soften and re-freeze into a solid mass rather than staying loose, since the unit does not hold ice at freezing temperature.
