Chompy ice on demand

We have our neighbors over for dinner a lot, and whenever they ask what to bring, I give the same answer: ice. Our fridge has no ice maker, so we’re always short. That problem has been solved with the Pearl L1 Max nugget ice maker. About the size of a large toaster, it cranks out tiny cubes of what my sister calls “chompy ice.” They are fun to chew (even though I know it’s probably not good for my teeth). It’s fast, too: pour in water, press the button, and nuggets start dropping into the basket within minutes. No more begging guests to bring their own ice. — MF
