Abstract: Disclosed is an ice maker in which a pressing portion of an ice cover presses a heating wire cover that covers a heating wire seated in the ice tray such that the ice tray and the heating wire are brought into being close contact with each other. Accordingly, a heat transfer efficiency at which a heat amount from the heating wire is transferred to the ice tray is increased.
