Summit's series of commercially approved ice machines bring powerful performance, user-friendly convenience, and professional style to commercial settings. Model BIM55BU is an ENERGY STAR certified commercial ice machine that is ETL-S listed to NSF-12 standards. This ice machine features a fully finished stainless steel cabinet and a jet black front with an easy-to-use slide-up lid. It is designed for freestanding use and features an air-cooled system to prevent overheating. Inside, the BIM55BU produces up to 55 lbs. of clear, bullet-style ice daily. Bullet ice features a hole at its center, which exposes liquids to more surface area than other ice shapes. The result is a cooler drink in less time than traditional cubed ice. With its unique shape, bullet ice can be produced and harvested faster, making it an ideal solution in fast-paced commercial environments. The interior can store up to 33 lbs. to help meet the needs of high-traffic areas. All digital controls are conveniently located at the unit's side, including a function to adjust the thickness of each ice cube. This unit also has a water filter and a removable mesh filter at the rear to ensure easier condenser maintenance. This automatic ice machine features a clean function, a full bin sensor, attractive LED lighting, and an ice scoop to maximize convenience. With its unique size, user-friendly controls, and large bullet ice production capacity, the BIM55BU is a great fit for break rooms, bars, restaurants, cafes, hotels, and similar spaces. For this ice machine with a larger production capacity, see model BIM77BU. Explore all of Summit's ice machines and icemakers on our Wayfair catalog. Summit Appliance

Brand Background
About Summit Appliance

Summit Appliance, a division of Felix Storch, Inc., has operated out of the Bronx, New York since 1969, carving out a distinctive niche in specialty refrigeration that sets it apart from mainstream appliance manufacturers. The company's catalog on Fridge.com encompasses 907 active products, reflecting an unusually broad range of specialized cooling solutions. Rather than competing in the standard kitchen refrigerator market, Summit focuses heavily on commercial and specialty categories—the brand offers 161 upright freezers, 153 kegerators, 153 beverage centers, and 78 built-in units, alongside 161 french-door models. This distribution reveals a manufacturer deeply invested in foodservice, hospitality, and medical applications rather than typical residential needs. ADA-compliant models like the CT661WADA compact freezer demonstrate Summit's commitment to accessibility requirements, while units like the SBC15NKCSS kegerator highlight their strength in beverage dispensing equipment. With products carrying an average rating of 3.7 out of 5, Summit Appliance occupies the mainstream tier but serves markets that premium residential brands often overlook, making it a go-to source for undercounter installations, laboratory storage, and commercial beverage applications where specialized dimensions and compliance certifications matter most.
