Haven't seen how it holds up past a year so giving it a 4. Our GE opal lasted barely over a year & was a piece of junk! We are much happier with the Insignia. Bonus being cheaper & on sale when we bought this 3+ months ago. Kept the side tank from the GE opal to hook up to this one but have found we really don't need it. There's still about half of the ice that hasn't melted overnight when I turn it back on in the mornings. It's making ice again within 10 or so minutes! Very happy with this nugget icemaker!

This ice maker is great. My girls and I love it and it is fun to use. It could have some enhanced features like a water input funnel, because it drips a bit when you take the basket out to put in new water. It’s got a pretty blue night light and makes bite sized nuggets. It’s a little noisy, like making popcorn very slowly, but not to distracting. Takes about 10-12 minutes for a full tray. The ice scoop and water tray are nice additions. Serves its purpose well. Recommended.

Bought as a gift for my 25YO daughter and she absolutely loves it. She states she no longer goes to Sonic to buy her drinks. Overall the machine was easy to set-up and definitely easy to use. The machine is average size and doesn’t overwhelm her limited counter space but has a large enough tank to keep plenty of ice on hand.

I bought one 9 months ago and loved it. Cleaned it regularly. Then last week notice black plastic in with ice. The part that makes the shape of the ice had broke and started coming threw in chunks and even powder form that you couldn't see unless you took tray out and looked in water settle in the bottom.

I got this unit as an upgrade to the entry level insignia one witch fail in less than a year. This ice maker is overpriced but it is more economical then its competition. It's make good ice fast and in nuggets similar to sonic ice witch is for my kids who love it which to be honest that's the only great thing about it. I need this in my home but for the full retail price it wouldn't be with it for me.
