Vivohome Showdown: 26Lb/Day vs Hand Scoop Ice Maker’s True Test – Excerpt We recently beta-tested the VIVOHOME Countertop Ice Maker, eager to see if the 26 lbs/day claim lived up to the hype. The compact, sleek red design blends seamlessly into kitchen countertops, while the rapid 6-minute ice cycle impressed us. Rolling out 9 ice cubes per batch, it meets our high-throughput needs effortlessly. The hand scoop added a layer of convenience—no more bending over to dig ice from bins. Our favorite feature was the self-cleaning function, which ensured fresh ice without manual labor. Yet, we noted minor quirks, like occasional noise during freezing cycles. Overall, the VIVOHOME delivers on its promise of speed and ease, making it a strong contender in our ice maker showdown.
