Scotsman CU50GA-1 Description
The Scotsman CU50GA-1 undercounter ice maker is an air-cooled commercial ice maker can produce up to 65 lbs of gourmet ice every 24 hours and has 26 lbs of storage. Scotsman’s gourmet ice cubes are crystal clear and slow melting making them a perfect match for top-shelf drinks.
The uniquely-shaped 1” x 1-⅛” x 1-¼” full size cubes produced by this unit are taste-free and odorless and won’t dilute the flavor of drinks. To produce ice of this caliber Scotsman includes a water quality sensor that detects hard water conditions and automatically purges water laden with minerals in every harvest cycle. Only the purest water is frozen into full size cubes producing extremely clear ice.
A user-friendly control panel lets operators know the device’s status and has an alert system in the event there’s no water as well as reminders to clean the unit. This unit comes with a handy ice scoop to properly handle the gourmet ice. This unit can be used for outdoor applications.
The unit features a stylish stainless steel exterior and measures 14-⅞” wide, 22” front-to-back, and 34-⅜” in height including the height adjustable 1” feet. This model uses a gravity drain and requires tubing with a ⅝” internal diameter.
To produce 100 lbs of gourmet ice 14.40 kWh and 34 gallons of water are consumed by this machine. This unit utilizes American standard 115v/60/1-ph power.
The Scotsman CU50GA-1 undercounter ice machine is NSF and UL certified.

Finally bought a new ice machine after my old one broke down after several years of using it. Scotsman has been around for a while, I have actually bought commercial machines from them back in the day and I'm happy to find out that the quality of their products has only been even better since then. Installing it was easy. I didn't encounter any problems when I turned it on, and in a short amount of time there was a lot of large and clear ice coming out of the bin. The noise is okay, it's only there when ice drops out on an empty bin. The high quality of the ice makes up for it anyway, the ice is larger and clearer than the ice produced in my last machine.Recommended Product
Pros: 2-5 year warranties, Highest Quality Ice
Cons: Noise
Aria Q (Los Angeles, CA)
This ice machine makes such great , crystal-clear ice cubes. It's so much better than my old icemaker. The Scotsman is a commercial model so it has higher quality ice and less pricey than a consumer model. Only thing is it's quite loud when ice comes out in the bin when it starts out empty.Recommended Product
Pros: 2-5 year warranties, Highest Quality Ice
Cons: Noise
Camila D (Los Angeles, CA)
It's so worth it for the price. We have a Scotsman that's been running for so many years. It just needs cleaning once a year and still works like it did when it was brand new.Recommended Product
Pros: 2-5 year warranties
Ava M (Portland, OR)
It makes ice quite fast. 50+ lbs in 24 hours. This ice machine makes more noise than a typical Scotsman but only because of its more powerful compressor. Not that much of an issue since it turns off when the machine is full of ice.Recommended Product
Pros: 2-5 year warranties, Highest Quality Ice
Cons: Noise
Nicholas Z (Dallas, TX)
Very excellent ice machine. It makes plenty of crystal-clear ice cubes fast. It's noisy only when ice drops into the bin, not that much of an issue to me. Replaced an old machine with this one and I'm very pleased with it.Recommended Product
Pros: 2-5 year warranties, Highest Quality Ice

Upon arriving to me the door on the ice machine was a little broken and it had to be replaced. Though the machine itself worked great. It made a lot of ice and the ice cubes were crystal-clear.Recommended Product

Luke O (Miami, FL)
Unfortunately the machine sent to me was faulty. Contacted a technician to come check it out and turns out the ice machine was damaged during shipping. We had Scotsman arrange a local service company to get us a new replacement and get rid of the failed one. Top-notch customer service. Highly recommend this product.Recommended Product
Pros: 2-5 year warranties

I bought the commercial version of this ice machine. It was a very simple install process. The door was slightly damaged so I contacted the company to send me a replacement door. Installed it myself and it was pretty easy, only took a few minutes.Recommended Product

Zoey G (Kansas City, MO)
We replaced an icemaker we've had for a while with this Scotsman one and it's so much better. The install was super easy and we had a bin full of ice the next day. Noisy when ice drops but it's not any louder than ice machines from other brands.Recommended Product
Pros: 2-5 year warranties, Highest Quality Ice
Cons: Noise
Matthew R (Los Angeles, CA)
A very well-made and solid ice machine. Worth the price you pay for it because it's something that doesn't break down immediately. No need to repurchase a new one again for a while. Lasts for years!Recommended Product
Pros: 2-5 year warranties

I have purchased a Scotsman before and they're always great. This new ice machine I got was no exception. They'll last longer and work at their best every time as long as they're cleaned on a regular basis.Recommended Product
Pros: 2-5 year warranties, Highest Quality Ice
Cons: Noise
Isabella P (San Francisco, CA)
Was originally looking for a consumer model version of this but couldn't find one so I decided to order the commercial one instead. It's bigger than necessary but the quality is superior. Better-made ice and freeze time is fast. But it's not a quiet ice machine. Very quick at making ice, I never run out for big parties. Very happy it meets my needs.Recommended Product
Pros: 2-5 year warranties, Highest Quality Ice
Cons: Noise
Ethan D (Los Angeles, CA)
I bought my last ice machine from this same brand and had it for 40 years! Putting a water filter for it will always give you crystal-clear ice cubes. Very high quality. I recommend this icemaker to everyone.Recommended Product
Sebastian B (Chicago, IL)
This is very good for big parties or simply for big families. It makes so much ice, it's quite impressive. I had this for a big event and I never ran out of ice. Ice is crystal-clear and "gourmet" style, something you'd have in restaurants. Noisy, but not noisier than most ice machines. Worth the price especially because we use this everyday.Recommended Product
Pros: 2-5 year warranties, Highest Quality Ice
