Overview
The Scotsman Meridian is a push-button countertop-style nugget ice maker and water dispenser rated at 500 lb of ice production per day, with a 25 lb storage bin and an enclosed stainless steel stand with a locking door. It pairs chewable nugget ice with SmoothStream water dispensing in one footprint.
This is built for high-traffic self-serve settings rather than a home kitchen, given the 500 lb/day capacity and commercial-grade stainless steel construction throughout the evaporator and auger. Removable bin, spouts, sink, and air filter are meant to make routine cleaning a staff task rather than a service call, and sealed maintenance-free bearings cut down on upkeep.
