One of Amazon's best-selling bullet makers, with two cube sizes and a self-clean function. Serious Eats found it middling at every task, and its bottom drain means lifting it over the sink.

Serious Eats says the drain is on the bottom, so you must pick it up and hold it over the sink to empty it before cleaning.
