If you’ve ever traveled beyond the U.S., you’re aware that we have a bit of a complex about ice. Americans love ice and refrigerators with ice—to the point that we find ways to incorporate it into almost every form of beverage. According to a study by Bosch from 2020, more than half of all Americans consume up to 36 pounds of ice individually per month, as part of their daily water intake and beyond. Many people in the U.S. claim that access to clean, abundant ice encourages them to drink more water.

If you’re among the droves who love ice in all their drinks, but your fridge doesn’t necessarily cater to your needs, look no further. We’ve rounded up some of the most impressive fridges with ice makers out there. Check out these fridges if you want to ensure that your kitchen is home to one of the best ice makers money can buy.

Not only is this French-door fridge from the Bosch 500 Series absolutely stunning, but it will also quickly become your favorite part of your kitchen. The 500 Series of Bosch fridges boast the industry’s fastest refrigerator ice makers and the QuickIcePro system that allows users to access over 40 cups of freshly filtered ice per day—enough for excessive ice consumption as well as entertaining.

The Bosch 500 Series utilizes the UltraClarityPro filtration system to generate clean, filtered water and ice as well as hands-free bottle filling, so that you can grab water on the go. The entire functionality of the fridge is nicely based in keeping users hydrated, so if you're someone that requires ice to stay hydrated or loves convenience, this is a great product for you. It's also neutrally toned and gorgeous, and comes at a lower price point that some of the other luxury fridges on the market.

Perfect for entertaining (or keeping your wine exactly how you want it).

This feels like something from far into the future.

LG's ice spheres are slow-melting, meaning they're perfect for drinks and cocktails and prevent users from having to rely on ice molds for fancier ice cubes. You can also get both crushed and cubed ice from this fridge.

This LG also comes with a smart screen that you can tap to unveil what's in your fridge, as well as a double door setup so that you can keep the items you want the most access to at the forefront. It's also Wi-Fi enabled and learns over time to best adapt to your cooling and hydration needs.

Mix and match or go full monochrome.

Bespoke fridges are a relatively low-cost way to get a customized aesthetic for your kitchen.

While there are lots of Bespoke fridges out there, our favorite so far is the RF29BB8600AP, but if your primary interest is ice then look no further than the RF23A9675AP.

Complimenting its four-door design is a dual ice-maker that makes standard ice cubes as well as chewable, smaller ice cubes for those who prefer to munch on their ice.

Of course, the flagship feature of the Bespoke fridge line-up are its customizable color panels, which users can mix and match to their heart's content. You can create the perfect combination for your kitchen or even upload a completely custom photo that Samsung will print across your fridge's panels.
