In the United Kingdom the Contessa is one of the most popular home ice makers. The current model is described as "the newest member of the world-renowned Contessa Ice Makers range of home ice making machines. A smaller sister to its predecessor, this ice maker's capacity for production and storage will surprise many and with a small footprint it frees up even more countertop space. Small and handy, it makes ice cubes quickly and easily and in 3 sizes; ideal for home entertaining, bbqs and parties."

In the USA the Danby & Sunpentown are amongst the most promoted of home ice makers, both in department stores and online; the Danby is a more standard machine whilst the Sunpentown is offered in a stainless steel under counter version.
