This is a great ice maker that makes perfectly clear, small ice cubes that are wonderful for cocktails or a host of other uses. It also makes ice very quickly, so we are looking forward to our next dinner party and having plenty of ice. We replaced an old unused trash compactor with this nice new ice maker, and are hopeful that the Whirlpool reputation, and our own experience with all our Whirlpool appliances will bode well for the life of this unit.
