How to Receive a Free Ice Maker Without Paying Anything

A free product-testing program is now open to U.S. applicants

Did you know a select group of everyday shoppers get brand-new appliances delivered to their door — completely free — just for sharing honest feedback?

About the Countertop Ice Maker

The Countertop Ice Maker is a compact, plug-in appliance designed to produce ice without a water line hookup. You fill the reservoir manually, and the machine churns out a fresh batch of bullet-shaped ice cubes in as little as six minutes. Most countertop models hold around 1.5 lbs of ice at a time and can produce up to 26 lbs per day, making them practical for home kitchens, home offices, or outdoor gatherings. The unit typically includes a removable ice basket, a scoop, and a self-cleaning function, and its footprint is small enough to sit comfortably next to a coffee maker.

Typical retail value: $89.99

Frequently asked questions

Do I need a big social media following?

No. Honest, detailed reviews carry more weight than follower count. Brands want real feedback, not influencer reach.

Are there any shipping costs?

No. Approved testers receive the product with no out-of-pocket cost, including delivery.

What does a good review look like?

A few clear photos plus a written breakdown covering setup, daily use, noise, and ice output. Specific observations matter far more than length.

How long does approval take?

It varies by brand and product demand, but most testers hear back within one to two weeks of applying for an open slot.
