The deciding specification is the published first-batch time, which ranges from 8 to 15 minutes across these five.

Publishes 10 ice thickness levels and a first batch in 7 to 15 minutes.
Publishes a 15 inch width and a first batch in 12 to 15 minutes.

For quick weekday meal preparation, the published first-batch time matters more than daily output. The FOHERE publishes 8 to 15 minutes and the largest bin at 350 pounds, so it suits a busy service kitchen. The COSTWAY publishes 12 to 15 minutes with a 25 pound bin and a 15 inch width for tight counters. The Tehanld publishes 7 to 15 minutes and a 33 pound bin. The Mojgar publishes 10 to 18 minutes and the smallest footprint. The EUHOMY publishes 11 to 15 minutes and a 33 pound bin.
“First-batch time, not daily output, decides the weeknight.”

Priorities, not a computed score. The inputs are published specifications, so we rank by what matters most and say how much.
The published first-batch times separate these five more than any other figure. The FOHERE states 8 to 15 minutes, the Tehanld 7 to 15 minutes, the Mojgar 10 to 18 minutes, the COSTWAY 12 to 15 minutes and the EUHOMY 11 to 15 minutes. Those are manufacturer statements, not measured times, and the ranges overlap enough that the bin capacity and the daily output matter just as much for a weekday service.
Bin capacity runs from 25 pounds on the COSTWAY to 350 pounds on the FOHERE. Daily output runs from 100 pounds on the Mojgar to 500 pounds on the FOHERE. The Tehanld and the EUHOMY both publish 33 pound bins, and the EUHOMY publishes a 400 pound daily rate against the Tehanld’s 200 pounds. The table below sets those figures side by side.
| Specification | FOHERE | Tehanld | COSTWAY | Mojgar | EUHOMY |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Daily output | 500 lb | 200 lb | 110 lb | 100 lb | 400 lb |
| Storage bin | 350 lb | 33 lb | 25 lb | 18 to 33 lb | 250 lb |
| First batch | 8 to 15 min | 7 to 15 min | 12 to 15 min | 10 to 18 min | 11 to 20 min |
| Width | 22.3 in | 19.0 in | 15.0 in | 15.75 in | 22.5 in |
| Depth | 33.5 in | 16.6 in | 21.1 in | 15.16 in | 26.4 in |
| Height | 65.0 in | 32.5 in | 33.7 in | 29.88 in | 63.2 in |
| Weight | not published | not published | not published | 42.28 lb | not published |
| Timer | not published | 0 to 24 h | 1 to 23 h | not published | 1 to 24 h |
| Thickness settings | not published | 10 levels | 3 settings | not published | not published |
The table does not tell you how cold the ice is, how loud the machine runs or how much energy it uses per day. Those figures are not published for all five. It also does not tell you how long the self-cleaning cycle takes, which is stated for some makers and not for others.
The first-batch time is the published interval from start to the first usable ice. The FOHERE states 8 to 15 minutes and the Tehanld 7 to 15 minutes. The Mojgar states 10 to 18 minutes. For a weeknight, that interval is the wait before the first drink or the first ice bath, and it is shorter than the time needed to fill a large bin.
Filling the bin is a separate figure. The FOHERE publishes a 500 pound daily rate and a 350 pound bin, so the bin is smaller than a full day of production. The COSTWAY publishes a 110 pound daily rate and a 25 pound bin. The published figures do not state how long a full bin takes to accumulate, only the daily ceiling.
The Tehanld publishes 10 thickness levels from -5 to 5 and states that thin ice suits smoothies and thick ice suits whiskey. The COSTWAY publishes 3 settings with published times of 12 minutes for thin, 15 minutes for medium and 18 minutes for thick. Those are the only two of these five that publish a thickness count.
The other three describe adjustable thickness without publishing a count or a time per setting. That means a buyer cannot compare the time cost of a thicker cube across all five from the published material. The Tehanld’s 10 levels give the widest published range among these five.
The COSTWAY publishes a 15 inch width, with a 21.1 inch depth and a 33.7 inch height. The Mojgar publishes a 15.75 inch width, a 15.16 inch depth and a 29.88 inch height. The Tehanld publishes a 19 inch width and a 16.6 inch depth.
The FOHERE publishes a 22.3 inch width, a 33.5 inch depth and a 65 inch height, and the EUHOMY a 22.5 inch width, a 26.4 inch depth and a 63.2 inch height. Those two are the largest of the five in every published dimension and need a floor position rather than a counter cutout.
The Mojgar states gravity drainage and requires a floor drain, with the drain hose positioned lower than the machine. The EUHOMY states the same gravity drainage requirement and no pump. The COSTWAY states a built-in water filter and a direct tap connection. The Tehanld and the FOHERE publish water filters and drain hoses among their accessories.
None of the five publishes a drain pump as included. That means the drain location is a fixed constraint for every one of these machines, and it should be confirmed before purchase. The published accessory lists differ, but the drainage requirement is common to all five.
High-volume service kitchen. The FOHERE publishes a 350 pound bin and a 500 pound daily rate. It needs a 65 inch height and a floor drain.
Bar with varied drinks. The Tehanld publishes 10 thickness levels and a 33 pound bin. Its 19 inch width and 32.5 inch height suit an under-counter position.
Narrow counter. The COSTWAY publishes a 15 inch width and a reversible door. Its 25 pound bin is the smallest among these five, so it suits lighter weekday use.
Smallest footprint. The Mojgar publishes the smallest width, depth and height among these five and weighs 42.28 pounds. Its 100 pound daily rate is the lowest among these five.
Two-box commercial setup. The EUHOMY publishes a 250 pound bin and a 400 pound daily rate, with a 1 to 24 hour timer. It ships in two boxes that may arrive separately.
The following figures were looked for and are not published in the manufacturer statements for all five machines.
It shifts the priority to the published first-batch time and the bin capacity. A machine that publishes a first batch in 8 to 15 minutes and a large bin reduces the wait and the refills during a weekday service. Daily output still matters, but it sets a ceiling rather than the day-to-day experience.
The FOHERE publishes a first batch in 8 to 15 minutes. The Tehanld publishes 7 to 15 minutes, the Mojgar 10 to 18 minutes, the COSTWAY 12 to 15 minutes and the EUHOMY 11 to 15 minutes. These are manufacturer statements, not measured times.
The FOHERE publishes a 350 pound stainless steel storage bin. The EUHOMY publishes 33 pounds, the Tehanld 33 pounds, the Mojgar 18 to 33 pounds and the COSTWAY 25 pounds.
The Tehanld publishes a 0 to 24 hour timer, the COSTWAY a 1 to 23 hour reservation timer and the EUHOMY a 1 to 24 hour timer. The Mojgar and the FOHERE do not publish a timer figure in their feature text.
The Mojgar publishes a 15.75 inch width, a 15.16 inch depth and a 29.88 inch height, the smallest of the three dimensions among these five. The COSTWAY publishes a 15 inch width, which is narrower, but a 21.1 inch depth and a 33.7 inch height.
The unit weight is not published for four of the five. Energy use in kWh per day, actual ice temperature and the duration of the self-cleaning cycle are also missing for several models. Those figures could not be sourced from the manufacturer statements.
