Description

The Cuisinart Countertop Nugget Ice Cube Maker IMC-12 in White brings the soft, chewable ice you love from fountain drinks into your kitchen. Compact enough for a countertop, this nugget ice maker produces up to 36 pounds of ice in 24 hours, with the first batch ready in about 8 minutes. It's the easiest way to keep a steady supply of restaurant-style ice for smoothies, iced coffee, happy hour, or a cooler full of party drinks.

Cuisinart IMC-12 Countertop Nugget Ice Maker: What Makes It Different

Unlike ordinary bullet ice makers, the IMC-12 compresses ice into shallow nuggets that are soft, crunchy, and absorb flavors just right. The self-contained design includes a 1.5L water tank and a removable 2L ice basket with scoop, so you can fill glasses and take the basket to the table without drips.

Simple Controls, Clear Indicators, and Self-Cleaning

The intuitive control panel shows Add Water and Ice Full lights, so you know exactly when to refill or empty the basket. A self-clean function removes residue and keeps ice tasting fresh. The built-in light lets you see when the basket is full, even in low light.

Troubleshooting Your Cuisinart Nugget Ice Maker

If your Cuisinart IMC-12 stops making ice or the Add Water light stays on, check the water level first—the reservoir needs to be above the minimum fill line. Confirm the ice basket is not full and that no ice is blocking the sensor. For persistent problems, run the self-clean cycle and restart the machine. Our FAQ below covers common fixes for cleaning mode and water light issues.

The Perfect Size for a Compact Kitchen

With a footprint that fits under most upper cabinets and a weight that's easy to move, the IMC-12 is ideal for kitchens, offices, boats, or RV counters. It keeps you in nugget ice without taking over your space.

Product Details

Nugget Ice, Without the Drive-Thru

Nugget ice—sometimes called Sonic ice—is softer than regular cubes, making it ideal for smoothies, iced tea, and snacking. The Cuisinart IMC-12 uses a compact auger system to form those chewable bits, and because the ice is less dense, it absorbs drink syrups and juices rather than watering them down.

Placement Tips for Maximum Ice Production

Keep the machine on a level surface with at least a few inches of clearance on all sides for airflow. Use cold water in the reservoir to speed up the first cycle, and don't overfill the ice basket—leaving some space helps the sensor work properly.

Common IMC-12 Questions, Answered

If the machine stops or shows an error, a power reset often resolves it. To keep mineral deposits from interfering with the water sensor, run the self-clean cycle every one to two weeks. If the ice tastes flat, empty the reservoir daily and replace it with fresh water.

Frequently Asked Questions

Why is my Cuisinart nugget ice maker not making ice?

First check the Add Water indicator and fill the reservoir above the minimum line. Make sure the ice basket is seated correctly and not overflowing. If the machine is in self-clean mode, wait for it to finish. Unplugging for 10 minutes and restarting can also clear minor sensor errors.

How do I run the cleaning mode on the Cuisinart IMC-12?

Fill the reservoir with clean water to the max line, press and hold the CLEAN button for about three seconds, and let the cycle run. After cleaning, drain the water, rinse the basket, and refill with fresh water before the next batch of ice.

The Add Water light won't turn off. What should I do?

The light can stay on if the water level is low, the water sensor is dirty, or the reservoir isn't seated. Clean the tank and sensor area, then refill above the minimum line. If it persists, contact our support team.

How long does it take to make ice?

First pellet-shaped nuggets appear in about 8 minutes, but the ice basket fills gradually depending on room temperature and how often you open the lid.

Can the ice maker be used continuously?

It's designed for countertop use with a 1.5L reservoir. The machine makes ice continuously until the water runs out, then stops automatically and lights the Add Water indicator.

Good for grandkids

My grandkids love the chewable ice, and it makes plenty for the summer. It is a little noisy, but we just run it during the day. The self-clean function is easy.

Ice maker changed my life

I’m a iced tea person and now I have nugget ice anytime. It makes the first batch in about eight minutes and then continuously. The machine holds about 3 pounds at a time, which is perfect for our family. The indicator lights are obvious, so I know when to refill the reservoir. I keep it on my counter and have had no issues. It’s worth every penny.

Works well, but noisy

I like the ice it makes, but it is too loud to have in the dining room. I keep it in the laundry room and bring it out when needed.
