Frigidaire EFIC128_AMZ-BLACK ice maker review

The Frigidaire EFIC128_AMZ-BLACK has a useful collection of exact-page claims, but the ice shape is not among them. Curtis lists two size choices, up to 26 pounds per day, storage up to 1.5 pounds at a time and a 2.3-quart water reservoir. The page calls it an ice maker and gives an exact SKU and UPC; it does not name bullet, nugget, cube or another geometry. That matters if your questionnaire choice is about the feel of the ice rather than just having ice on hand.

What the exact page does—and does not—identify

The official listing names SKU EFIC128_AMZ-BLACK and UPC 058465832094. It describes 26 pounds of ice in two different sizes, a 2.3-quart reservoir, electronic controls and LED indicators. The product is shown on the manufacturer’s ice-maker page, but the saved exact listing does not call the pieces bullet-shaped. A two-size selector is not enough to establish a geometry, so this assessment leaves ice shape unknown instead of transferring the shape from a similarly numbered EFIC model. If bullet, nugget or clear-cube ice is essential, use a configuration whose own product page or exact manual says so; the EFIC122-BLACK review, for example, documents bullet ice from its own linked manual.

The image linked on the EFIC128_AMZ-BLACK page shows a black Frigidaire-branded machine with a top opening and controls. It matches the exact page’s black configuration. The manufacturer does not say whether the studio image is a photograph or a rendering, so it is presented only as the official product-page image. It is not a substitute for missing specifications such as the unit’s footprint.

Think in repeated collections, not a 24-hour stockpile

The 26-pound figure is a manufacturer’s daily claim, not a measured result in this review. The saved exact page does not pair it with room-air and water temperatures. Treat it as an unconditioned ceiling for comparison, not a guarantee in a warm kitchen or a promise that 26 pounds will be waiting in the bin. A household that needs a specified yield at 90°F room air and 70°F water should not count this page claim as proof of that condition.

The collection statement is more concrete: the machine stores up to 1.5 pounds at a time. That is the bin’s stated maximum, not a full day’s production. If you want ice for a few drinks at once, this gives you a usable collection reference. If you are hosting, expect to check and move ice between rounds rather than assume the machine keeps a large reserve ready. The listing does not document powered frozen storage, so do not plan on the appliance acting as a freezer. Transfer the ice to a freezer or serve it promptly if you need it to remain frozen.

A larger reservoir, with operating details still to verify

The 2.3-quart reservoir is about 2.18 liters. It clears a 2.1-liter water-capacity minimum, but the source does not say how often the tank must be refilled during a long run. A water reservoir alone also does not prove a direct plumbing connection or a particular manual-fill procedure. The exact page has English and French manual labels, but the captured listing did not provide a readable, model-specific instruction file; setup, drain access, electrical requirements, maintenance and ventilation clearance therefore remain unknown here.

The dimensions shown on the page are all zero placeholders, not usable measurements. Do not use those fields to decide whether the body fits below a shelf or beside a wall. Before purchasing, verify the exact carton and unit dimensions, required airflow clearance, water-fill steps and cleaning instructions against the actual EFIC128_AMZ-BLACK documentation. An unknown footprint is not a compact footprint.

Who should shortlist this configuration?

It may suit a shopper who values a larger-than-one-quart reservoir, a stated 1.5-pound collection maximum and two size selections, and who is willing to confirm ice shape and operating details before ordering. The exact manufacturer page is enough to make those comparisons, but not enough to answer every practical question. Keep the model out of a shape-specific shortlist until the exact source identifies the pieces.

Compare the EFIC122-BLACK if you want a directly linked manual that names bullet ice, two sizes, dimensions and a documented cleaning program. Compare the EFIC125-BLACK if a page-stated 1–1.5 lb collection range and two bullet sizes are more important, while recognizing that its manual link was unavailable in the earlier saved evidence. Those comparisons use other exact models’ evidence; they do not fill this model’s gaps.
